Abstract

In the context of special autonomy, the Papua is granted an authority to empower the socio-cultural and economic potentials of the community and provide an adequate role for indigenous Papuans. This research analyses the condition of socio culture which contributes in the representation of natives Merauke in bureaucracy. The aspect of socio-cultural is one of the factors that influence the recruitment of civil servants in the Merauke Regency. Demand for more portions to be allocated for local communities in the recruitment of Civil Servants and at the same serves as representation of the community in the government bureaucracy is a sensitive issue that can trigger actions and protests from the community groups. Socio-cultural approach is expected to minimize the demands that may occur. This research uses a qualitative research approach, with observation, interviews and documentation methods. The results of this study state that the socio-cultural environment also determines the representation of local communities in the government bureaucracy. Therefore, in the process of civil servants’ recruitment it is necessary to consider provision of opportunities for Papuans to get involved in running the government management and development.
