“…Concerning the former, Hartmann (2022) argues that single-party autocracies have created a favourable context for term limits to be respected in the future, especially when the ruling party has remained in power in spite of the transition to multipartyism. In this kind of autocracy, leadership is less personalised (Osei et al, 2020), and there is often a consolidated habit of discussing leadership succession collectively. Regarding more proximate legacies, the first time a term limit is reached could represent a highly consequential event (Hartmann, 2022).…”

Although term limit violation is a widely examined form of autocratisation in sub-Saharan Africa, this research focuses on the relatively understudied but increasingly frequent cases in which term limits prove resilient. We distinguish two forms of term limit resilience, namely, compliance and enforcement, and we offer the first regional-level study of its determinants using qualitative comparative analysis. We find democracy – that is, the factor that is often considered the strongest predictor of term limit resilience – to be decisive when term limits are threatened or likely to be threatened. However, other mechanisms resulting from the interplay of factors that can be present in both democratic and non-democratic regimes stand out for their explanatory power – most notably, path dependence, regime legacies and opposition. Conversely, factors such as the international promotion of democracy and military autonomy appear to play a secondary role, at least from a comparative viewpoint.

“…One of them is limiting the terms of office of the President and Vice President (Pratiwi et al, 2021). There is a perception among the public that the routine replacement of one leader with another will create public trust in the stability of state institutions (Osei et al, 2020).…”

The discourse on the policy of a three-term presidential term raises pros and cons in the political circles of the government and the people of Indonesia. The narrative can be seen through the opinions of policy actors, government, political parties, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), and the community. This study uses a method with a Q-DAS (Qualitative Data Analysis Software) approach. The data in the study were taken through four national online news media with a high level of credibility. This research will conduct a study using the Narrative Policy Framework (NPF) which can explain the structure of the political narrative in the policy-making process of changing the President's term of office. This study aims to examine the role of the media in shaping public narratives in formulating policies for the Presidential General Election in Indonesia. The results of this study indicate that the votes in the group that is against the narrative of the presidential term policy are more dominant for three periods. President Joko Widodo's firm refusal was able to influence the intensity of the discussion on the policy to increase the President's term of office.Wacana kebijakan masa jabatan presiden tiga periode menimbulkan pro dan kontra di kalangan politik pemerintah dan masyarakat Indonesia.
