Abstract

This study presents a bibliometric analysis of digital policy research, evaluating its thematic evolution and theoretical underpinnings across international journals. Utilizing the Scopus search engine, the research identifies and classifies digital policy publications from 2013 to 2023, and VOSviewer software was employed to visualize trends, network linkages, and information production. The findings indicate a notable lack of theory-driven research in the digital policy domain, with a majority of studies focusing on empirical or applied aspects rather than foundational theory. This gap is particularly pronounced in areas like cybersecurity, data privacy, and digital governance. Additionally, the study reveals that interdisciplinary journals contribute more to theory-based digital policy research than specialized publications. The research calls for greater integration of theoretical frameworks in digital policy studies to address global digital challenges better. It highlights the need for scholars to explicitly link their work to theory, thus enriching policy development and offering more comprehensive solutions to emerging technological issues. Failure to incorporate theory consistently represents a missed opportunity to influence the broader discourse on digital governance and policy making.

Abstract

Last-mile delivery in e-commerce logistics is crucial and difficult, affecting consumer happiness and operational efficiency. Fulfillment centers use delivery area/zone marking to ease this operation. This study examines fulfillment center methods for optimizing last-mile delivery orders. This research first examines delivery area/zone labeling methods. These methods break geographical regions into smaller manageable parts for resource allocation and route optimization. Grid-based zoning, distance-based tagging, and contemporary machine learning methods for dynamic and adaptive zone identification will be investigated. The study then examines delivery area tagging implementation factors. Zone tagging success depends on population density, order frequency, traffic patterns, and delivery time windows. Emission regulations and sustainability targets will also be examined. Delivery area/zone tagging technology and tools are also examined. GPS tracking, GIS mapping, and real-time data analytics enable effective monitoring and modifications. IoT devices and predictive analytics will also be assessed for their impact on delivery performance. This study concludes with the benefits and drawbacks of delivery area/zone labeling. Delivery time, operational expenses, and customer experience improve. Fulfillment focuses face data privacy, algorithmic biases, and system scalability issues. In conclusion, this study examines fulfillment center delivery area/zone labeling for last-mile delivery orders. E-commerce and logistics stakeholders may maximize last-mile delivery by knowing the different methods, technology, and factors affecting them.

Abstract

This study aims to present a history of city branding: hyper-competition, challenges, and opportunities for improvement. The method used in this study used qualitative with a literature study approach. The findings in the study showed that in understanding the place and building city branding, there are at least three processes first through urban governance planning or infrastructure, then observation by looking at other places in the city branding. Finally, branding representation on social media is in the form of websites and tweets through news, while Instagram is through branding images from somewhere and several other media. Furthermore, City branding can be hyper-competition, showing that business competition is increasing. On the other hand, it can be a challenge and an opportunity considering that many cities have reimagined their competitive strategies by maximizing their internal potential, namely existing resources, to take opportunities and anticipate the threats faced. The contribution of this study provides an understanding of measurements in the city branding literature, helps researchers discover new studies, and can interpret the complex nature of cities. Another thing is that closing the gap between theory and practice presents a huge challenge for brands.

Abstract

This research explores trends, challenges and innovations in digital transformation in the public sector, with a focus on its implications in Indonesia. The objectives of this study are to evaluate operational efficiency improvements in public services generated by digital transformation, identify challenges in the implementation of digital technologies, and provide policy recommendations to ensure the sustainability of technology adoption in the Indonesian public sector. The methodology used included a literature review and data analysis from the Scopus database, which was analyzed using VOSviewer to identify key patterns and trends in digital technology adoption in the public sector. The results show that the success of digital transformation depends not only on the adoption of new technologies, but also requires structural changes and organizational culture. Key challenges include resistance to change, the digital divide between urban and rural areas, and infrastructure limitations. This research provides policy recommendations that can accelerate the adoption of digital technologies in Indonesia, particularly through cross-sector collaboration and infrastructure improvements. The findings are expected to serve as a reference for policymakers and practitioners to strengthen the digitalization of public services in a sustainable manner. This research still has several limitations, such as the absence of field studies that directly test the effectiveness of digital transformation in the public sector, as well as analysis of regulations and human resource readiness that still need to be deepened. In addition, the mapping of digitalization trends in Indonesia is still limited to secondary data. For this reason, future research is recommended to conduct surveys or direct interviews with policy makers, strengthen policy analysis, and compare the implementation of digital transformation in other countries so that the strategies formulated are more appropriate and contextual for Indonesia.

Abstract

The research analyzed digital maturity in assessing the responsiveness of e-government services. The research is driven by the issue that many governments struggle to deliver responsive and efficient digital services due to uneven levels of digital maturity. Technological infrastructure gaps, limited digital competencies, and rigid bureaucratic processes hinder the creation of adaptive e-government systems. Using a scientometric analysis method, the research evaluated literature published from 2019 to 2024, sourced from the Scopus database, and employed RStudio and CiteSpace tools for data visualization and trend mapping. The findings reveal that high levels of digital maturity significantly improved public service efficiency, transparency, and citizen engagement. These improvements are achieved through effective integration of digital technology, organizational transformation, and citizen-centered service design. The research also identifies persistent challenges, such as low digital literacy, infrastructure inequality, resistance to change, and data security concerns, all of which obstruct the realization of responsive e-government. The research contributed originality through a multidimensional approach, offering a strategic framework to evaluate e-government effectiveness using digital maturity indicators such as accessibility, service quality, and public satisfaction. It emphasizes the need for sustained investment in infrastructure, digital literacy programs, and cross-sector collaboration involving the government, private sector, and civil society. Additionally, it identifies opportunities for future research to explore how emerging technologies—such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, and big data—can enhance transparency, efficiency, and inclusivity in public services. Overall, the research positions digital maturity as a key enabler of adaptive and effective governance in the digital era.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate how oligarchy in power politics and economics affects people's welfare, especially in the context of the dominance of digital oligarchy and the challenges that arise in dealing with this inequality of power. Using qualitative research methods, data were collected through literature reviews from various validated journals, articles, websites, and mass media news. The findings of the study show that the dominance of major digital platforms by digital elites strengthens socio-economic inequality in Indonesia. Data evidence shows that platforms such as WhatsApp (90.9), Instagram (85.3), and Facebook (81.6) have high usage rates, allowing for information control and manipulation of public opinion. This exacerbates injustice, with the richest 1% of the population having an average wealth of more than 2000, while the poorest 50% of the population only have an average wealth of $6.34. This study suggests increasing digital literacy, strict regulations, and diversifying information sources as strategic steps to reduce the dominance of digital oligarchs and ensure a more equitable distribution of power in the digital era.gb777
