Abstract
The democracy of the Indonesian nation is based on deliberation and consensus, not liberal democracy or communist democracy. Indonesian democracy, also known as Pancasila democracy, is rooted in collective life carried out for the common good, not for the interests of groups or individuals. This research aims to explain that deliberation and consensus are the implementation of democratic values in life. A fundamental skill in conducting deliberation and consensus is effective communication. Through communication, any issue can be discussed and a consensus can be reached. This study uses a literature review approach. The results of this research show that the implementation of democracy in Indonesia occurs through deliberation and consensus, which is implemented through effective communication skills. It is effective because it always upholds the values of divinity, humanity, and nationalism, in order to achieve a socially just Indonesian society. There is a need for a reconceptualization of the deliberation and consensus model in the Indonesian state, starting with who is eligible to be a participant in deliberation, as well as the communication requirements that must be followed in the deliberation and consensus process.
