This study aims to examine and explore the values contained in the novel Sastra Politik Kampus by Harmita Sari. Using a qualitative descriptive approach and content analysis techniques, this study focuses on four domains of value: political literary, educational, cultural, and social. The findings show that the novel portrays the campus world as a miniature country, where the dynamics of campus politics reflect power relations, ideologies, and intrigues that also occur in the national politics. Cultural and social values are present through local wisdom, human relations, and a critical attitude towards the social structure of the campus and society. This research confirms the position of literature as a reflective medium that is not only aesthetic, but also educative and transformational.
