- Abstract
The disparity in economic growth between the island of Java and the islands outside Java is a factor for the government to issue Law Number 3 of 2022 concerning the State Capital (IKN). However, this law contradicts the Indonesian government system, which adheres to the principle of decentralization. This contradictory condition becomes critical to discuss further how to move the capital city of Indonesia from a decentralized perspective. This study analyzes Indonesian capital’s relocation from a decentralized perspective. The method used is a literature study that discusses the relocation of the capital city. The results of the research from the political dimension there are two strong currents in responding to the movement of the national capital, the first against the movement and the second supporting the movement of the national capital. In the administrative dimension involving redistribution of authority and responsibility, the specificity of the capital city of Jakarta is lost, and its position has changed. From a fiscal perspective, the relocation of the capital changed the President’s power as the manager of state finances to the Indonesian Capital Authority. This article concludes that the relocation of Indonesia’s capital city should be revisited.
