Abstract

This article aims to analyze the role of informal connections as a form of community citizenship informality in Sidomulyo Hamlet RW 003 Sumberberas Village, Muncar District, Banyuwangi Regency, in an effort to realize the rights of citizens in Indonesia. The method used is library research, where activities such as reading, taking notes, processing or reviewing written references in books, journals or other research, which are connected to civic phenomena occurring in society, will be carried out. This study produces findings that citizenship is described as various formal and informal aspects of civic engagement as a depiction of citizens' interactions with the state. The context of informality, which in this study is described as the personal social connections of citizens, is one way to accelerate public virtue which is not limited to a negative perspective, but can also be directed into a more positive aspect.
