Abstract

Although as a system of government, Democracy is relatively new, but the values contained in democracy can be found traces in the history of the local Toba Batak community. This can be seen from the harajaon system, a traditional government system that regulates society, just like today's modern social systems. As a system, harajaon at some point accommodates democratic values: expressing opinions in deliberation, sharing of power, etc. Harajaon can be defined as a social system. This study is a qualitative research with in-depth interviews and field observations in four areas of the harajaon. The results of this study indicate that there is a division of power in the Harajaon government system, namely, Harajaon Huta, Harajaon Horja and Harajaon Bius. Then there are differences in harajaon patterns from the four research areas. However, Harajaon is a local government system that is run by the Toba Batak Indigenous People and has a model like today's democracy
