Abstract

The decentralization of village governance is expected to create inclusive democratic spaces and promote gender equality at the grassroots level. However, these normative ideals frequently collide with the reality of local power dynamics. Based on a critical literature review, this article investigates how local elite capture and rent-seeking motives hijack gender mainstreaming policies in village governance. The study finds that in the planning phase (Musrenbangdes), women's participation is reduced to "false inclusion" a mere administrative checklist to fulfill requirements for the release of Village Funds, while their strategic proposals are systematically ignored. This exclusion smoothly paves the way for local elites to massively divert the village budget (APBDes) into capital-intensive physical infrastructure projects. This budget hijacking is driven by rent-seeking opportunities and financial kickbacks for elite networks, leaving women's empowerment and human development programs severely underfunded. Ultimately, this study concludes that without strict structural oversight and the active strengthening of women's independent political agency, gender equality in village governance will remain an empty document serving only to preserve local oligarchic power..

Abstract

Over the past decade, carbon taxation has emerged as a central instrument in global emission reduction efforts. Yet in many developing countries of the Global South, its implementation has fallen short of the urgency posed by the climate crisis. A significant gap in the literature remains: how industrial resistance and domestic power configurations shape the design and enactment of carbon tax policies. This study examines the dynamics of industrial resistance to carbon taxation in four Global South countries—India, South Africa, Mexico, and South Korea—by highlighting the strategic alliances forged between the state and carbon-intensive industries. This study adopts a qualitative approach, employing a comparative research design to analyze policy documents, statistical data from the World Bank, IEA, and Carbon Pricing Dashboard, along with relevant academic literature. Findings indicate that in all four cases, the state tends not to act as a transformative agent, but rather as a facilitator of fiscal and political compromises with industrial actors. The resulting policies are largely symbolic—characterized by low tax rates, broad exemptions, and the absence of escalation strategies. Framed through the lens of strategic state–capital alliances, this study argues that state–market relations in the Global South cannot be understood purely in technocratic terms, but must be seen as configurations of power that shape the trajectory of energy transitions. These findings offer important theoretical implications for climate policy research and the political economy of development.
