Runtuhnya Rezim Soeharto 1998, menjadi penanda penting bagi lahirnya demokrasi di Indonesia. Transisi ini menjadi sebuah kunci bagi keterbukaan politik setiap orang untuk dapat menikmati manfaat dari demokrasi. Meskipun demikian, kritik terhadap demokrasi tetap bergulir bahkan ketika Indonesia telah menikmati kehidupan yang lebih demokratis. Salah satu kritik utama dalam wajah demokrasi Indonesia adalah dengan adanya dominasi minoritas atau elit politik dalam memanfaatkan kehidupan demokrasi di Indonesia. Kondisi ini pada akhirnya membuat Indonesia seolah tidak jauh berbeda dari periode sebelumnya akibat adanya praktik de-demokratisasi dari adanya dominasi aktor. Melalui metode penelitian kualitatif jenis deskriptif analisis, serta dengan teknik pengumpulan data berbasis studi pustaka, penulis akan menggunakan Teori Dominasi Minoritas sebagai perspektif utama dalam menjelaskan fenomena kemunduran dan kritik terhadap demokrasi di Indonesia pasca Orde Baru. Penulis menyimpulkan bahwa dominasi minoritas melalui kekuasaan politik, menyebabkan adanya penyelewengan kekuasaan dengan melanggengkan dominasi minoritas melalui politik dinasti dalam jelmaan jubah demokrasi.

This article examines the Indonesian government’s role in using the South- South and Triangular Cooperation (SSTC) mechanism to promote clean energy transition and accomplish the Paris Agreement’s Nationally Determined Contribution (NDCs) targets through the Clean, Affordable, and Secure Energy for Southeast Asia (CASE) Project. The SSTC is a multi-sector cooperation framework among states that includes governmental actors, international organizations, and civil society, with the goal of pursuing sustainable development. This research employs Green theory and SSTC norms through a qualitative descriptive analysis and data gathering methods based on a literature review. The study indicates that the CASE Project, through collaborative initiatives involving grassroots movements, can evantually support the Indonesian government in attaining renewable energy transition and national NDC targets.

This paper examines transitioning from a traditional capital system to a more modern and sustainable financing system. Green financing or green microfinance is one of the efforts to provide opportunities for micro-scale businesses initiated by women to start businesses in the energy sector. Green financing is considered part of financial inclusion, providing business financing schemes oriented towards ecological conservation values. This research considers the context of opportunities and potential obstacles women face in accessing green financing. A literature study was conducted to describe microfinance schemes by drawing closer to efforts to mainstream gender and efforts to transition to a more sustainable financial system. At least several stages need to be passed to transition the financial system toward a more gender-friendly and sustainable direction. First, it is important to socialize the awareness-raising program on green entrepreneurship for women more massively. Second, steps to develop the capacity of women entrepreneurs should be accompanied by preparing business proposals to apply for bank financing, which is part of financial literacy education. Business mentorship programs from the government for women who have micro-scale businesses are also needed. Such technical assistance interventions will be the beginning of preparation for micro-enterprises to start consistently opening a sustainable business. This paper finds that the green financing strategy will ultimately help transition business models that seek to integrate efforts to save the ecology with business schemes, including developing a gender-friendly sustainable business ecosystem.
