Abstract

Today, a movement can be established within minutes through an online petition. One of the successful cases of this movement is the MD3 Law Coalition. In observing the phenomenon, several questions arose, what triggers the establishment of the MD3 Law online petition movement? How can a movement formed through online petitions managed to prevail in Indonesia? To answer the questions, this study uses the qualitative method and applies the Political Process Theory. The theory argues that there are three crucial components for the formation of a movement, i.e.: insurgent consciousness, organizational strength, and political opportunities. This study finds all of the components played important roles for the success of the Coalition. First, the movement is caused by the feeling of injustice from the House (insurgent consciousness). Second, the movement was led by prominent figures and established several online petitions (organizational strength). Third, Indonesia provides the political opportunities that the movement needs (political opportunities).
