Political Communication In The Legislation Function To Local Government Regulation On Wetlands

Abstract

Abstract. Political communication is the beginning of the emergence of political products. One of the political products that are important for the survival of the community in the regions is Regional Regulations. The process of making Regional Regulations requires a political process involving factions in the DPRD as the owners of legislative authority and function related to Regional Regulations. These factions are extensions of the political parties, where there are political wants and interests. Due to the interests of these political parties, the function of political communication by the factions in the DPRD is very important in determining the course of the formulation of Regional Regulations. The purpose of this study is to analyze the stages of political communication of the factions in the formulation of Regional Regulations related to wetlands in the DPRD of South Kalimantan Province. The research method uses a qualitative approach with document study, observation and in-depth interviews related to Political Communication in the Legislative Function related to the Formulation of Regional Regulations in the Wetlands of the DPRD of South Kalimantan Province. Using Miles and Huberman's data analysis techniques, the results of the study show that political communication related to the Wetland Regional Regulation between DPRD members takes place as an effort to master the civic skills of the community in South Kalimantan Province through the stages of preparation, implementation and evaluation.
