Overview
This course introduces Pancasila as the philosophical foundation of the Indonesian state, the national ideology, an ethical system, and a paradigm for life in society, the nation, and the state.

The course also studies Pancasila within the constitutional system of the Republic of Indonesia, including the structure of government, the 1945 Constitution, the key ideas in its Preamble, the relationship between the Preamble and the body of the Constitution, and relevant constitutional provisions.
