Data were obtained by using interviews as well as literature and document studies. The results indicate that local elites play a role in increasing participation in Pilkada in North Toraja according to their capacity. Local political elites socialize candidate pairs, become campaign teams and volunteer teams of candidates for regent / vice bupati candidates.

Adat leaders play a role by utilizing the charisma owned socialize information Pilkada to the community, build communication with the candidate pair then support it in the elections. The involvement of local elites in the implementation of North Sulawesi District Head Vice Regent and Vice Regent 2015 has a significant impact on the political participation of the community. Increasing the political participation of the people in Pilkada is not solely because of the involvement of local elites in disseminating information on Regional Head Election.

Data diperoleh dengan menggunakan wawancara serta studi pustaka dan dokumen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa elit lokal berperan dalam peningkatan partisipasi pada Pilkada di Toraja Utara sesuai kapasitasnya. Elit politik lokal mensosialisasikan pasangan calon, menjadi tim kampanye dan tim relawan pasangan calon bupati/wakil bupati. Tokoh agama menjadi bagian dari penyelenggara Pilkada dan mensosialisasikan pelaksanaan Pilkada melalui kegiatan keagamaan. Tokoh adat berperan dengan memanfaatkan kharisma yang dimiliki mensosialisasikan informasi Pilkada kepada masyarakat, membangun komunikasi dengan pasangan calon kemudian mendukungnya dalam Pilkada. Keterlibatan elit lokal dalam pelaksanaan Pemilihan Bupati dan Wakil Bupati Toraja Utara tahun 2015 memiliki dampak yang signifikan terhadap partisipasi politik masyarakat. Meningkatnya partisipasi politik masyarakat pada Pilkada bukan semata-mata karena keterlibatan elit lokal dalam mensosialisasikan informasi Pilkada. Akan tetapi terdapat faktor pendorong lain sehingga masyarakat aktif berpartisipasi, yaitu (1) diberikan imbalan materi (termasuk kegiatan judi Pilkada) dan (2) adanya sentimen keagamaan salah satu pasangan calon terhadap tokoh agama (pendeta) dalam kegiatan ibadah.Kata Kunci: Elit Lokal, Partisipasi Politik, Toraja Utara

This study aims to describe the dialectical process between local agents and religious structures in the practice of marriage in Padang Sidempuan. The research method is qualitative descriptive with a case study design that focuses on narrating the objective conditions of agent and structure duality. Informants were chosen purposively, supported by observational data, interviews, and documentation. Data analyzed through the process of collection, reduction, exposition, verification, and conclusion. The results showed that: 1) Conceptually, the practice of marriage experienced practical distortions that were configured through consensus of sharia and local elites; 2) the practice of marriage is a phenomenon of the duality of agents and structuring each other; 3) agent habitus is dominated by Mandailing culture through power relations and surplus capital of the local elite compared to the sharia procedure of religious structure. However, the competence of agents is able to compress marital rules into semi-complex; 4) the importance of promoting religious habituation strategies through internalization and dissemination of alternative sharia marriage practices.

Political developments in Ceylon during the 1950's drew attention to the forward thrust of a social formation in the Sinhala districts which has been described variously as “the rural middle classes,” “the lower middle-class traditionalists,” a “new village leadership” and so on. The political antecedents of this “group” were not traced beyond the 1930's, though several writers recognized that it was part of a social category which existed in British times. In recent articles it has been argued that the political activities of individuals drawn from this social category date back to the late nineteenth century. Be that as it may, it is obviously of value to clarify the lines of differentiation between this middle-level social category and the indigenous elite placed hierarchically above them. The former can be described as a “sub-elite,” a “subordinate elite,” an “intermediate elite,” or a “local elite.” The latter can be described as a “macro-elite,” a “central elite” or a “national elite.” Though convenience dictates the choice of one of these combinations, a reference to the alternatives is necessary because each captures a facet which the other labels do not convey.

The religious temperature of post-Reformation early modern England was constantly over-heating. Given that Protestant belief was frequently challenged by residual dissent, religious identity of whatever kind was crucial to both individual and parochial cosmological understanding. Hence, the many spatial, sensory, material and performative changes which were visited on parish churches over this period were designed to shape and redirect belief, but could also act to confuse believers. In order to penetrate this mass of religious reaction and response, I employ Assemblage Theory, particularly that of the political theorist, Jane Bennett, whose thinking is currently strongly influential amongst archaeologists. Using her work on the vitality of matter and the importance of the assemblage as a phenomenon containing material, non-material and human components, I apply a selection of her ideas to diagnostic elements of being and belief visible in the religious activities and materiality of the early modern parish church. While I refrain from discussing particular human individuals or groups, my chosen examples are intended to foreground the ontology of early modern parishioners, their perception of their hierarchical status within Anglican cosmology, their territorial conceptions of religious space and the workings of time as seen through the sequential assemblages of monumental tombs. Following Bennett, but departing from the current archaeological concentration on the primacy of materiality, this essay is designed to plug some of the people-shaped holes which are sometimes left unfilled by their surrounding material networks.

Indonesia adheres to a democratic system of government. Each citizen, on the basis of the choice of ordinary people, chooses free political participation and then changes their direction as a sympathizer. Today, the excitement of political participation in Indonesian society to spread on Aceh has been somewhat hurt because some people have changed the political climate to be bad. This is reflected in the previous political participation side by side to deliver rhetoric to reap the voice of the people, but it has become a competition for each other. The purpose of this study is to find out what types of political participation occurred in constituents in Banda Aceh and West Aceh and who are the actors or groups that weaken or strengthen political participation in the constituents. The research method used is a qualitative approach with informants consisting of key informants, subject informants and non-subject informants. The results showed that the types of political participation in the constituents of Banda Aceh and West Aceh were very different and that sympathizers and political actors continued to strengthen and weaken the constituents. It is expected that this research will be a comparative study of the dynamics of policy in the Aceh region.
