• Resumen

  • During the occurrence of the Covid-19 pandemic, the laws made by the House of Representatives of the Republic of Indonesia (DPR) as a legislative body, ideally, should not cease to reflect society's needs pursuant to the realisation of the representation principle. In analysing the fulfilment of such an ideal conception with the reality of its implementation, this paper aims to discuss the trends and discourses regarding the laws made by DPR, as a balancing power to the presidential body, during the pandemic as a new state of emergency. The authors would like to scrutinise the trend of laws passed by the DPR in various sectors, both quantitatively by evaluating the number of outcomes and qualitatively by observing the issues raised during the law-making process. Finally, this paper finds that the DPR still falls short of expectations on ensuring the actualisation of a democratic law-making process amidst the pandemic.
