Abstract
The purpose of this study is to determine whether media usage and the change of kewarganegaraan norms influence political participation. The focus of this study is to examine kewarganegaraan norms in the context of the development of information and communication technology and how it will impact political participation in the context of Indonesia’s transition to democracy. The main theoretical framework is media and political participation. For data gathering, 384 young voters between the ages of 17 to 40 years were interviewed in Padang, West Sumatra, Indonesia. The results of this study reveal that gender, age and educational background of the respondents did not significantly influence media usage and kewarganegaraan norms. The results also shows that educational background is not a factor that distinguishes media usage but it becomes a differentiating factor in kewarganegaraan norms. The results further show that the media usage has a significant correlation with kewarganegaraan norms and kewarganegaraan norms has a significant relationship with political participation. In addition, media usage and kewarganegaraan norms show a significant impact on political participation. The sub-dimensions of kewarganegaraan norms (compliance, duty, and engaged warga) provides a significant contribution to the sub-dimensions of political participation (traditional political participation, modern political participation, civic political participation). Based on the findings it can be concluded that the political euphoria in the transition era towards democracy has changed the pattern media usage and kewarganegaraan norms among the young generation.
