Abstract

The process of democratic transition in Indonesia, characterized by a friction in institutional logic. In the political sphere, the friction can be seen from the change of decentralization policy to centralization policy. The decentralization policy can be distinguished vertically or horizontally. The vertical decentralization policy produces deconcentrated administrations, while horizontally generating the autonomy of civil society. This study focuses on the horizontal aspect. An important question of this study is how civil society organizations respond to the friction that occurs in the institutional environment. This study places the decentralization policy as an institutional framework and non-governmental organization (NGO) as a civil society organization. This study takes the case of Yayasan Citra Mandiri (YCM). The study was conducted using a qualitative approach. Data collection is done through in-depth interviews, observation and documentation data collection. The theoretical framework that will be the center of research analysis is the theory of institutional organization. This study shows that decentralization policy supports the legitimacy of NGOs. On the other hand, decentralization policy also puts pressure on the existence of NGOs.
