AbstractThe doctrine of Judicial Restraint and Judicial Activism has become a debate in
democraticcountriesondecisionsrelatedtothepresidentialnominationthreshold
(presidential threshold) made by the Constitutional Court. In the application of judicial
restraint, judges are more self-limiting in deciding a case and are more restrained in their
authority, in contrast to judicial activism which is more active and brave in providing new
legal breakthroughs on the norms being tested. In this paper, the formulation of the problem
to be discussed is How the Decision of the Constitutional Court Judges Applying the Doctrine
of Judicial Restraint Against the Presidential Threshold Lawsuit in the Presidential Election
and the Development of Democracy in Indonesia and How the Relationship between the
Decision of the Constitutional Court Judges Using the Doctrine of Judicial Activism Against
the Presidential Threshold Lawsuit in the Presidential Election and the Development of
Democracy in Indonesia. This paper also uses normative legal research methods, which is a
process to analyze legal rules, legal principles and legal doctrines. The problem approach in
this writing is the statute approach and conceptual approach.
