Negara Bayangan Cenderung Korupsi, Sisi Gelap Otonomi Daerah

Abstract

Good Governance is crucial for the attainment of development goals and
delivering the promises of democracy. However, it cannot be understood apart from
the political regime and the political dynamic within which it exists. establising good
governance in a traditional democracy such as Indonesia has its additional
challenges. specifically, it attempt to show that currently low quality of governance in
provinces accross Indonesia might be linked to the existence of shadow state. The
shadow state phenomenon is a characteristic of the administration of governance in
the post-New Order democratic transition period. Banten Province, led by the
Governor of the Ratu Atut Chosiyah, is a perfect example of a shadow state.This
paper is the result of a long research on the shadow state phenomenon in Banten,
which is not far from Jakarta. The research method uses a qualitative approach using
various literature sources with the phenomenological type. To achieve data validation,
a continuous triangulation process was carried out. The substance of the material in
this paper will try to explain the opportunities and challenges in developing the
concept of good governance in the socio-political reality shadowed by a shadow
country that is prone to corruption
