I. Introduction
A. Motivation: Indonesian Case, Legislative Arrogance, Public Unrest
In recent weeks, Indonesia has experienced a series of political disturbances that underscore the fragility of its democratic institutions. These events, ranging from local protests to widespread riots, have often been triggered by perceptions of legislative arrogance. Citizens report instances where elected representatives, once occupying positions of power, openly disregard campaign promises, prioritize personal or partisan interests, and exhibit behaviors that erode public trust.
