| Summary: | Political dynasty is a common practice in Indonesian politics. It is compounded by the dependency of political parties on their leadership figures. The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP) is considered as the biggest political party in Indonesia's post-Suharto era. The existence of Sukarno's political dynasty in PDIP is not only seen as part of their history but also as the identity of the party and becomes their uniqueness. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of Sukarno's political dynasty towards PDIP institutionalization and how it works with the existing liberal democratic system in Indonesia. This research is based on two theories: elite theory and party institutionalization theory. However, political dynasty theory as an extraction of elite theory is also used in the framework to provide better understanding of the concept. In this research, the PDIP institutionalization is measured by combining Levitsky's (1998) model with the Mark Weatherall's (2013) approach as well as Basedau and Stroh's (2008) model. This research is a qualitative study that includes field research to seek information through observation and interviews. The results of the findings show that the Sukarno's political dynasty has contributed to the institutionalization of PDIP. |
