Abstract
The political policy is taken by the West Sumatera Regional Government, i.e., the overhauling of the institutional structure of Nagarirationally turns out to have been culturally constructed since the bureaucratic system changed from the village government to the Nagari government. What appears to be the stability of political institution in the regions, one of which is Nagari, turns out to be the intervention of central government in the implementation of autonomy and decentralization. Using the explorative post-positive method, the study aims to produce a conceptually and variably solid analysis in the form of descriptive writing. The result of this study shows that there is an institutional problem when the state (central and provincial government) underrates the Nagari, emphasizing merely on regional autonomy for the interests of the central government. There is the process of habitus, social capital, the political arena, and doxa that affect local institutions in Nagari when it is imposed to become part of the state political power reproduction. There are also several actions of some actors at the local and central level to take a role in democratizing the Nagari.
