Abstract :
In this research there is an issue of legal
philosophy, namely that direct general elections as a
general election system in Indonesia are contrary to the
values contained in the fourth principle, namely
democracy led by wisdom in representative deliberations
in the Indonesian nation's ideology, namely Pancasila,
thereby obscuring the characteristics of typical
democracy. Indonesia is a Pancasila democracy. This
research aims to examine whether the general election
system in Indonesia is in accordance with Pancasila
democracy. This type of research is normative juridical
with a conceptual approach, and uses secondary legal
materials. The research results show that the current
general election system in Indonesia is contrary to the
values contained in the 4th principle, because it is not in
accordance with the materialist causal characteristics of
Pancasila, namely the Indonesian nation which has the
spirit of deliberation and consensus as a democratic
concept. Finally, it can be concluded that Indonesia's
current electoral system is in conflict with Pancasila.
Keywords :
Pancasila; democracy; general elections.
