ABSTRACT

This study aims to analyze the discourse of Michel Foucault's power on the mural phenomenon “Jokowi 404: Not Found” and aims how are discourses of power produced, by whom, and what are their effects and impacts? This also discusses the murals and their relationship with art, politics, and democracy, especially in Indonesia. Using a qualitative approach, the objects in this research are the actors involved in the production of discourse in several online news portal reports related to the mural “Jokowi 404: Not Found”. The data was obtained by means of observation, literature study, and recording of existing reports related to the mural phenomenon “Jokowi 404: Not Found” which was then analyzed descriptively and qualitatively. The results show that the actors involved in the phenomenon of removing the mural “Jokowi 404: Not Found” discussed in this study build their own version of the episteme in order to dominate each other and make their version of the discourse become the dominant discourse.
