Observing the political cultural system in Indonesia is so rich in history in terms of motives and strategies and the power of what is happening in the world of politics in Indonesia country. Through this paper, the authors would like to give a review of the psychological point of view of someone who has been steeped in the discipline of anthropology, psychology anthropology precisely.
Based on the political history of Indonesia, we recognize a wide range of political parties since the inception of the Republic of Indonesia and its derivatives up to the current reform era. And based on the eras of the founding of Homeland any party that is so prominent as the dominant party.
The first fact: in the early independence era (1945 - 1966) there is a political party that is psychologically using the "color" of the trademark. As PNI with "colors" red, Masyhumi with "color" green, PKI with the "color" red is the dominant parties of that era, and so forth (by the other party because of minor value, so the party was not mentioned by the authors in this paper, however, the authors strongly believe that these parties also use the "color" as a trademark).
Fact two: the New Order era (1966 - 1998), there is a single majority of which is a combination of various political parties and mass organizations and called themselves Golkar (Golongan Karya). Political institutions is not a political party but is a joint secretariat. And Golkar uses "color" yellow as his trademark. While the parties are relegated of power forced to the fusion into a new political party which is represented by PPP (Partai Persatuan Pembangunan) and PDI (Partai Demokrasi Indonesia). And, not coincidentally, when the two dominant political forces are using "color" in his trademark. PPP uses "color" green is the dominant color representation of the fusion of religious parties and the right forces at the previous era. While the PDI using "color" the color red as the dominant political representation of nationalist political parties and left forces.
The third fact: the reform era (1998 - present), the dominant party is the Democratic Party, Golkar, PDI-P. Middle-class party is the PPP, PKS, Hanura and Gerindra and PKB (Partai Kebangkitan Bangsa). While the lower-class party is the PAN (Partai Amanat Nasional). And in accordance with the review of psychological writers, these parties also use the "color" as a trademark. We can mention, the Democrats use the "color" as the trademark blue; Golkar Party which is an organization of "escape" from GOLKAR using "color" as his trademark yellow; PDI-P which is a metamorphosis of the political power of the new order PDI using the "color red" as his trademark. Likewise the other parties who are middle-class party and the lower class party use of "color" as a trademark.
From the three historical facts, we can conclude the color as a dimension of the consequences of which are represented by the illumination of our solar system in this regard the sun as the central star as the color of the lighting is fragmented, it becomes a motive and strategy as well as the power of political forces in Indonesia. It is psychologically color will become a character and not just as a concept in the behavior of human life are seen much less in all places and cultural area that is a representation of space and time. Political system of a State, as a cultural concept is influenced by the "color". And so obvious and so significant is seen that the political "color" is applicable in Indonesia. Either ordinary or not anyone could interpret a variety of colors as a character, or the nature and disposition of the various terms that vary according to who made the statement.
In closing this paper, the author can only say to the readers in Indonesia, understand the political "color" as a guide for people who are politically passive, meaning that for those who simply use their right to vote in the political structure of the State of Indonesia in which once every five years or in a democratic political mechanism called PEMILU (General Election).
