Abstract

One of the positive impacts of the 1998 Reformation was the opening of the tap of opportunity for all citizens to be directly involved in electoral politics as political actors elected at the ballot box or as constituents who have the right to vote. Courage then grows to uphold democracy for both minority and majority groups. There are several important reasons that underlie the ethnic Chinese in North Sumatra who were previously less interested in getting into politics, starting to enter the general election arena to participate in the contestation as executive and legislative candidates. The purpose of this study is to explain how the political dynamics of ethnic Chinese in North Sumatra after the Reformation. The research method is qualitative with descriptive analysis. The results of this study describe the social dynamics of the ethnic Chinese before the reformation, the reasons for the involvement of the ethnic Chinese in North Sumatra to be involved in politics and the social and political impact of the involvement of the ethnic Chinese in contesting the general election in North Sumatra after the Reformation.
