Abstract: In this research there is an issue of legal philosophy, namely that direct general elections as a general election system in Indonesia are contrary to the values contained in the fourth principle, namely democracy led by wisdom in representative deliberations in the Indonesian nation's ideology, namely Pancasila, thereby obscuring the characteristics of typical democracy. Indonesia is a Pancasila democracy. This research aims to examine whether the general election system in Indonesia is in accordance with Pancasila democracy. This type of research is normative juridical with a conceptual approach, and uses secondary legal materials. The research results show that the current general election system in Indonesia is contrary to the values contained in the 4th principle, because it is not in accordance with the materialist causal characteristics of Pancasila, namely the Indonesian nation which has the spirit of deliberation and consensus as a democratic concept. Finally, it can be concluded that Indonesia's current electoral system is in conflict with Pancasila.
Keywords: Pancasila; democracy; general elections.
