Global surveys indicate that massive disillusionment with economic globalisation, upheld by the liberal order, which is ignored by governments in European, Asian and Latin American countries, has paved the way for the ascent of nationalist forces. This trend is also visible in Indonesia. President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) has consolidated power against opponents who exploit nationalist, populist and religious causes. On the international front, Jakarta has been actively engaged within a variety of multilateral organisations where liberal institutionalist agendas are enforced. Therefore, it is worthwhile considering the influence of internal and external environments on Jokowi's economic policy which is getting increasingly nationalistic. This article argues that nationalist economic practices have emerged as the Jokowi government's response to domestic and international challenges which can have an impact on its perceived legitimacy. The discussion proceeds in five steps. To begin, this article presents a comparative perspective to understand the position of Indonesia in the developing international political economic context. This is followed by an overview of the definition of economic nationalism and its connections to domestic politics and foreign relations. The third section is about the Indonesian government's efforts to put economic nationalism into effect. The next two parts investigate how the inside and outside dynamics generate Jokowi's inward-looking policies. The conclusion emphasises what can be learnt from the Indonesian case.

The sole candidate in the local leader election has become a phenomenon in the world of democracy in Indonesia. The sole candidate in the local leader election in Indonesia, is considered a solution to the impasse of democracy since 2015. This phenomenon has become a solution as well as a polemic in the community, because it is full of monopoly power. This study examines the implementation of a sole candidate in the local leader election in Bone Regency and its implications on the democratic process. This research is classified as field research with qualitative methods, while the approach used is descriptive analytic. The data sources of this research are based on primary data and secondary data. Primary data were taken from the results of interviews and observations. The results of this study indicate that the practice of selecting a sole candidate (choosing an empty column) in Bone Regency is not in the same breath as democracy and reduces the interests of the people's sovereignty in electing a leader. Some of the implications that arise include: a monopoly on political parties, injuring the interests of local communities, sole candidate competition which results in harassment and complications of pressure on voters who campaign for empty columns. As a result, people feel that their rights are not taken into account in the local leader election. The implication of this finding is that in responding to the practice of selecting sole candidates as in Bone Regency, there are many problems, so the sole candidate competition must be ended immediately because it is not in tune with the philosophical meaning of democracy.
