Abstract

Purpose: This study analyzes the strategic implications of Indonesia’s membership in BRICS on national defense and security, focusing on its potential to strengthen military cooperation, diversify defense procurement, and enhance geopolitical positioning while navigating complex global alignments. Research methodology: This study employs a qualitative method using a literature review and secondary data analysis. These sources include policy documents from the Indonesian government, international reports, and academic publications related to BRICS, defense diplomacy, and global security dynamics. Descriptive and comparative analysis techniques were used to explore the strategic implications and potential shifts in Indonesia's foreign policy. Results: The study finds that BRICS membership offers Indonesia enhanced access to alternative funding via the New Development Bank, broader defense cooperation, and opportunities to modernize military capabilities through technology transfer. It also provides a platform for more assertive defense diplomacy. However, risks include potential diplomatic friction with Western allies, internal power asymmetries within BRICS countries, and challenges to Indonesia’s non-aligned foreign policy stance. Conclusions: Indonesia’s BRICS membership can bolster national defense and strategic autonomy if managed with diplomatic prudence. A balanced foreign policy is essential to leverage the advantages of BRICS while preserving partnerships with Western powers and ASEAN allies. Investment in cybersecurity, military modernization, and defense diplomacy is crucial for long-term stability. Limitations: This study relies solely on secondary data, limiting insights into internal policy dynamics and practical implementation. Contribution: It offers a strategic perspective on Indonesia’s BRICS engagement and its implications for defense diplomacy and national security.

Abstract

The digital era has brought about a revolution in various aspects of life, including the realm of political campaigning. This study examines the transformation of political campaign strategies in the context of the influence of social media and digital communication. Utilizing a qualitative approach, this research investigates how digital platforms and social media have impacted campaign approaches, altered the interaction dynamics between candidates and voters, and influenced voter behaviour. The findings indicate that social media is central to informing, engaging, and mobilizing the masses, especially among the younger generation. Moreover, digital communication allows for more personalized, real-time, and data-oriented campaigns. However, the potential for disinformation and polarization also increases with the presence of social media as a campaign medium. This study provides insights into the importance of adapting political campaign strategies in the digital era and the necessity for a balanced approach between utilizing technology and considering ethics in communication.

Abstract

Total war and the mobilization of national resources during World War II: Strategic insights for Indonesia’s national resilience This study highlights the importance of transforming Indonesia's national resilience in the face of contemporary threats such as cyberattacks, disinformation, ecological disasters, and geopolitical dynamics. Employing a qualitative approach with an intrinsic case study design, data were collected through policy analysis, interviews, and participatory observation. The findings reveal institutional fragmentation, weak intersectoral coordination, limited public participation, and threat literacy. The study proposes a conceptual model of national resilience comprising five dimensions: institutional structure, sectoral integration, adaptive capacity, public awareness, and geopolitical orientation. It emphasizes that without synergy among these elements, the resilience system remains vulnerable. Therefore, a new paradigm is needed more adaptive and participatory focusing on institutional reform, community empowerment, and a sharper geopolitical strategy in the Indo-Pacific region. Penelitian ini menyoroti pentingnya transformasi ketahanan nasional Indonesia dalam menghadapi ancaman kontemporer seperti serangan siber, disinformasi, bencana ekologis, dan dinamika geopolitik. Menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus intrinsik, data dikumpulkan melalui analisis kebijakan, wawancara, dan observasi partisipatif. Hasil menunjukkan adanya fragmentasi kelembagaan, lemahnya koordinasi antar sektor, serta minimnya partisipasi masyarakat dan literasi ancaman. Studi ini mengembangkan model konseptual ketahanan nasional yang terdiri atas lima dimensi: struktur kelembagaan, integrasi sektor, kapasitas adaptif, kesadaran masyarakat, dan orientasi geopolitik. Ditekankan bahwa tanpa sinergi antar elemen tersebut, sistem ketahanan akan tetap rentan. Oleh karena itu, dibutuhkan paradigma baru yang lebih adaptif dan partisipatif, dengan fokus pada reformasi institusional, penguatan peran masyarakat, dan strategi geopolitik yang lebih tajam di kawasan Indo-Pasifik.

Abstract

Indonesia’s border areas play a vital role in safeguarding national sovereignty and stability, particularly in facing cross-border security challenges such as smuggling, human trafficking, piracy, and overlapping territorial claims. This research aims to analyze national security strategies in border area management through a public policy approach. Using a descriptive qualitative method based on literature review, the study explores various strategies including military strengthening, defense diplomacy, the use of advanced technologies such as satellites, drones, and artificial intelligence, as well as the integration of economic and social policies in border regions. The findings reveal that effective border management requires a multidimensional approach involving synergy between the defense sector, local governments, civil society, and international cooperation. Investment in surveillance infrastructure, institutional reform, and the development of border economic zones are essential to build a resilient and sustainable security system. This study recommends a collaborative, strategically adaptive policy framework that responds to global geopolitical dynamics to protect Indonesia’s sovereignty and promote the welfare of communities in border areas.
