Abstract

Political dynamics in the local arena of Banten Province as a province in Indonesia lead to aspects that are opposite and contrary to the values ​​of democratization. Decentralization that is successfully carried out in an open and participatory manner will prevent corrupt behaviour, and vice versa if local political domination is gripped by people who have veto power, then the implementation of decentralization will be distorted and lead to corrupt actions or abuse of power. Political dynasties as a form of abuse of power, one of which occurred in Banten Province with the long-lasting political dynasty of the Ratu Atut Chosiyah family. Against the background of pluralism in Indonesia, then the typology of local regimes in Indonesia is categorized with a typology that divides local regimes according to the characteristics of the region viewed through the relationship between formal and informal institutions and formal and informal actors. So, what local regime typology is categorized into the Banten regime that tends to build power using family network instruments? This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach to analyse regime patterns in Banten Province and see how the running of government under the control of the regime affects democracy in the local political arena concerning the theory of decentralization, democracy theory, and local regime theory. The conclusion that we get from this research is that the regime of Banten Province is categorized into a formalist elitist typology concerning the Ratu Atut family, which every election always tries to legitimize its power formally. Apart from that, the factors described in the typology theory of local regimes in the formalist elitist category are also evident in Banten Province which then shows the failure of democratization which should have been created due to decentralization.
