Abstract

Decentralization experiences were quite different in each country. This difference can be seen in the authority given to local governments, which has an impact on development efforts produced by local governments. This research uses the concept of decentralization in looking at development in Indonesia and South Korea. The differences in the implementation of decentralization in the two countries can then be explained by the development carried out by the local governments of Makassar City and Ulsan City. Indonesia and South Korea have several differences in the formation of the decentralized system and the implementation of the decentralized system in each country. This shows that in the development process, both have different roles and influences, Makassar emphasizes foreign cooperation which is dominated by infrastructure development and human resource development, while Ulsan has a fairly high intensity of foreign cooperation and prioritizes foreign cooperation in the industrial sector with export-oriented, this shows the difference in policy influence provided by the two cities.

Abstract

This study argues that the Liberal International Order (LIO) is self-defeating, with its deterioration driven more by endogenous than exogenous factors. The principal endogenous factor identified is the LIO's organized hypocrisy, a condition in which the order's foundational norms, particularly self-determination and non-interference, are simultaneously upheld in discourse and systematically violated in practice by its own principal proponents. Drawing on the organized hypocrisy framework developed by Stephen C. Krasner, this study analyzes norm violations across four modalities: convention, contract, coercion, and imposition. It further argues that this organized hypocrisy contributes to a legitimacy deficit within the LIO, as evidenced by declining trust in the United Nations, an increasingly unfavorable global perception of the United States as the order's principal proponent, and the behavior of LIO beneficiaries who are actively seeking institutional alternatives such as BRICS. Employing a qualitative desk-based research method, this study concludes that the LIO is structurally self-defeating: its expansive liberal ambitions generate actions that undermine the sovereign norms upon which its own legitimacy rests.

Abstract

Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis langkah-langkah yang diambil oleh Vanuatu dalam upaya diplomatiknya terkait isu HAM Papua dan menjelaskan respon Indonesia dalam menanggapi upaya Vanuatu. Studi ini mengeksplorasi upaya Vanuatu dalam dalam konteks diplomasi menggunakan instrumen kemanusiaan. Tulisan ini menggunakan metode kualitatif-deskriptif dan studi kasus dengan pendekatan studi literatur. Selain itu, tulisan ini menggunakan teori diplomasi kemanusiaan dalam menganalisis upaya-upaya Vanuatu dalam forum internasional. Penulis mengidentifikasi tiga jenis intervensi yang digunakan oleh Vanuatu yakni pengumpulan informasi faktual, penggunaan perjuangan simbolis, dan koalisi diplomatik. Meskipun tujuan strategi ini adalah membantu Indonesia memenuhi komitmen internasional dalam bidang hak asasi manusia, hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa respons Indonesia terhadap upaya tersebut merupakan bentuk ancaman eksternal terhadap integritas Indonesia. Dalam konteks ini, advokasi internasional yang bertujuan memastikan nilai-nilai kemanusaan diimpelemntasikan justru menciptakan tantangan baru bagi masyarakat Papua. Penulis menyoroti bahwa isu hak asasi manusia bersinggungan dengan isu kedaulatan negara dan menunjukkan keterbatasan intervensi internasional dalam mengintervensi isu kemanusiaan yang bersifat domestik.

Abstract

The implementation of decentralization in developing countries generally goes hand in hand with the process of democratization. However, each country implements a decentralization system with varying levels of authority, which affects the role of local governments in conducting international cooperation. This study aims to compare the authority of local governments in conducting international cooperation between the City of Ulsan, South Korea, and the City of Makassar, Indonesia. Using a qualitative method through a comparative study approach supplemented by interviews, this study employs a decentralization framework as an instrument to measure the level of local government authority. The intensity of cooperation is used to identify the extent to which these authorities are implemented in foreign relations. The results of the comparison based on the constitutions of both countries show that local governments in South Korea have broader authority than city governments in Indonesia. This difference is reflected in the intensity of international cooperation, with Ulsan City recording a higher number of international cooperation initiatives than Makassar City.
