This article is focused on discussing the efforts needed to reconstruct democracy in realizing bonum commune politics which is reviewed based on the thoughts of John Stuart Mill. In this paper, the author uses a library study method with the primary source being the book On Liberty written by Mill. Political realities that are colored by speculative actions for personal gain or certain groups have damaged the face of democracy in this country. Corruption, collusion, and nepotism have become a scourge that continues to erode the dignity of democracy. Certain individuals act as if other people are not competent, which gives rise to an attitude of ethnocentrism. This damage to the face of democracy is also exacerbated by the weak autonomy of law enforcers such as the Constitutional Court which is then used for the political interests of certain groups. The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) as an institution that handles corruption cases actually has some of its officials caught in corruption cases. This reality has damaged the face of democracy in this country. In response, there needs to be more concrete efforts. Education on this matter should be intensified so that people understand more about moral politics. The law must be implemented as it should. Those who commit crimes in a democracy must be dealt with firmly without discrimination. Systematically designed lies must be exposed in order to create a transparent democracy. The politicization of religion, culture, and customs must be openly opposed.
