"Conservatism is about defending the status quo; in both Germany and Japan, the status quo is the postwar democratic regime. However, while the representatives of Germany’s intellectual conservatism have come to accept the democratic status quo of the postwar period, the same can hardly be said about intellectual conservatism in Japan, despite the two countries’ similar modern histories. This article seeks to explain this puzzle by pointing to a lack of pressure to adapt and the resulting freedom allowing Japanese conservatives to take a peculiar and consistently negative view of the postwar system’s foundations, which they do not recognize as a new tradition worth building on, but rather a deplorable ideological import forced upon Japan. Based on those observations, the article makes a case for an autonomous intellectual conservatism."

"Tindakan afirmatif dengan pemberian kuota 30% bagi kaum perempuan, merupakan hak konstitusional yang harus dipandang dengan proporsional dengan tidak mengesampingkan hak kedaulatan rakyat. Sebagai stake holder utama dalam negara demokratis, adalah hak rakyat untuk memilih para wakilnya untuk duduk di parlemen. Pengabaian terhadap hak rakyat untuk memilih para wakilnya merupakan pencederaan terhadap demokrasi dan kedaulatan rakyat "

"Kinship politics has become an old topic of discussion in all countries that adhere to democracy, even for a democratic example country like America. The phenomenon of kinship politics is also inseparable from democracy in Indonesia. The rise of kinship politics is reflected in the implementation of the 2020 Regional Head Elections. This has caused concern from various groups, from the general public to democracy experts. They assume that the practice of kinship politics will harm political developments in Indonesia. Based on this phenomenon, this article aims to review kinship politics in the 2020 Regional Head Elections. The review covers implementing kinship politics, the reasons for the widespread practice of kinship politics in Indonesia, and its implications for governance practices in Indonesia. The methodology used is the method of literature study or literature review. Based on the findings, kinship politics in Indonesia occurs in almost all regions in Indonesia and strengthens in the 2020 Regional Head Elections. This happens because of the pattern of patron-client. Furthermore, negative implications are found in a patronage network that leads to cases of KKN-the Indonesian acronym for corruption, collusion, and nepotism, the destruction of local democracy, and moral hazard problems. The alternative used is political party reform, where the party applies a transparent and merit-based mechanism for regeneration."

"Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyelidiki keberadaan konservatisme pada negara-negara Asia Pasifik, ditinjau dari aspek determinan dan aspek dampak. Pada aspek determinan, penelitian ini menguji pengaruh faktor-faktor determinan atas unconditional conservatism dan conditional conservatism. Pada aspek dampak, penelitian ini menguji pengaruh unconditional conservatism dan conditional conservatism atas kualitas informasi akuntansi: relevansi dan reliabilitas. Sebagai sebuah studi antar negara, penelitian ini juga menguji pengaruh faktor-faktor tingkat negara dalam kedua aspek dari konservatisme tersebut.Berdasarkan hasil pengujian aspek determinan, contracting, litigation, regulation dan taxation terbukti memicu dan menekan keberadaan unconditional conservatism dan conditional conservatism. Hubungan negatif di antara kedua tipe konservatisme juga dapat dibuktikan. Dengan demikian, dari aspek determinan penelitian ini dapat memberikan justifikasi keberadaan konservatisme pada negara-negara Asia Pasifik. Sementara itu, dari aspek dampak penelitian ini kurang dapat memberikan bukti kebutuhan konservatisme. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan hanya unconditional conservatism yang memberikan dampak positif pada relevansi informasi akuntansi, sementara unconditional conservatism memberi dampak negatif pada reliabilitas informasi akuntansi dan conditional conservatism memberikan dampak negatif pada relevansi dan reliabilitas informasi akuntansi.Faktor-faktor tingkat negara (status adopsi IFRS, sistem judicial/legal, sistem hukum sekuritas dan sistem ekonomi politik) terbukti memiliki pengaruh langsung pada konservatisme dan kualitas informasi akuntansi. Penelitian ini juga menyodorkan bukti bahwa secara umum faktor-faktor tingkat negara memiliki pengaruh moderasi terhadap hubungan faktor determinan dan konservatisme (aspek determinan) dan hubungan konservatisme dan kualitas informasi akuntansi (aspek dampak).

The purpose of this study is to examine the existence of conservatism at Asia Pacific countries, viewed from its determinant aspect and its impact aspect. Regarding the determinant aspect, this study examines the influence of determining factors on unconditional conservatism and conditional conservatism. Meanwhile for the impact aspect, this study examines the influence of unconditional conservatism and conditional conservatism on accounting information quality: relevance and reliability. As a cross country study, this study also examines the influence of country level factors in the both aspects of conservatism.According to the test results for the determinant aspect, contracting, litigation, regulation and taxation are proved to trigger as well as to surpress the existence of unconditional conservatism and conditional conservatism. The negative relartionship between the two types of conservatism is also supported. Therefore, from the determinant aspect this study may provide justification for the existence of conservatism at Asia Pacific countries. Meanwhile, from the impact aspect this study tends to provide less evidence for the need of conservatism existence. The test results show that only unconditional conservatism provides a positive impact on relevance of accounting information, meanwhile unconditional conservatism provides a negative impact on reliability of accounting information and conditional conservatism provides negative impacts on both relevance and reliability of accounting information.Country level factors (IFRS adoption status, judicial/legal systems, secutiry laws systems and political economic systems) are proved to have direct influences on conservatism and accounting information quality. This study also provides evidences that, in general, country level factors have moderating influences on the relationship between determining factors and conservatism (determinant aspect) and the relationship between conservatism and accounting information quality (impact aspect)."

"Skripsi ini bermaksud untuk menjelaskan kebangkitan ideologi yang menyelubungi latar sosial di balik kemenangan Donald Trump sebagai Presiden Amerika Serikat pada tahun 2016. Fenomena yang disertai oleh kebangkitan populisme hampir di seluruh penjuru dunia ini telah dinamakan oleh para pengamat sebagai Trumpisme. Menurut beberapa studi, fenomena ini jamak disorot media arus utama sebagai manifestasi isu personalitas dan identitas sosial partisan yang memikat perhatian massa terhadap gelagat maupun retorika vulgar Donald Trump atas kehendaknya untuk merengut kursi kepresidenan. Akan tetapi, penulis mendapati bahwa temuan studi-studi itu mengabaikan preseden historis pemicu rentetan masalah sosial yang memantik kebangkitan fenomena tersebut. Dengan memakai metode Analisis Tematik dan teori ideologi Karl Mannheim untuk menelaah watak ideologis sistem politik dan ekonomi Amerika Serikat yang termuat dalam film The Big Short (2015) dan Vice (2018), peneliti mengajukan ‘narasi tandingan’ untuk menyanggah wacana populer rekaan media arus utama yang membingkai kebangkitan Trumpisme sebagai fenomena personalitas dan balas dendam gerakan politis reaksioner yang tipikal. Dengan demikian, peneliti berargumen bahwa Trumpisme adalah kulminasi mutakhir rentetan masalah sosial yang dipicu oleh kejayaan neokonservatisme dalam tubuh politik Amerika Serikat ketika Perang Teror Global dikumandangkan dan simtom krisis neoliberalisme pada Resesi Besar 2008 yang menuai berbagai perlawanan massal terhadap hegemoni globalisme.

This thesis intends to explain the emergence of ideology that undergird the social background behind Donald Trump's victory as President of the United States in 2016. This phenomenon, accompanied by the rise of populism in almost all corners of the world, has been referred to by pundits as Trumpism. According to several studies, the phenomenon is often highlighted by the mainstream media as a manifestation of personality and partisan social identity issues that attract mass attention towards Donald Trump's vulgar attitude and rhetoric on his own accord in order to won over the presidency. However, I find that the findings of these studies ignore the consequential historic precedents beneath the concatenation of social problems that ignited the rise of the phenomenon. By using Thematic Analysis and Karl Mannheim's theory of ideology to examine the ideological characters of United States political and economic systems contained within The Big Short (2015) and Vice (2018), I proposes a 'counter-narrative' to refute the popular discourse created by the mainstream media that frames the rise of Trumpism as a phenomenon of personality and typical reactionary retaliation. Thus, I argue that Trumpism is the latest culmination of a series of social problems that were triggered by the triumph of neoconservatism in the United States political body when the Global War on Terror was inaugurated and the symptoms of the crisis of neoliberalism in the Great Recession of 2008 which resulted in mass resistance to the hegemony of globalism."
