Abstract

Artikel ini mengkaji eskalasi ketegangan historis antara Thailand dan Kamboja ke dalam arena keamanan non-tradisional, khususnya industri beauty pageant. Energi konflik dari sengketa teritorial yang tidak terselesaikan di ranah politik ini menemukan salurannya di panggung budaya populer, mengubahnya menjadi perang proksi di ranah sosio-kultural. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis bagaimana dinamika perseteruan di panggung kontes kecantikan berfungsi sebagai proksi dari konflik identitas yang belum terselesaikan. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif studi kasus yang berfokus pada kontroversi terkini, kerangka Onion Analogy dari Simon Fisher diterapkan sebagai alat analisis utama untuk membedah tiap lapisan konflik mulai dari positions, interests, hingga needs fundamental kedua negara. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perseteruan ini merupakan manifestasi dari kebutuhan mendasar kedua negara atas keamanan, martabat nasional, dan kedaulatan budaya. Fenomena ini mengekspos keterbatasan diplomasi regional tradisional seperti "The ASEAN Way" dalam mengelola sengketa berbasis identitas yang diperkuat oleh nasionalisme digital, serta menggarisbawahi pentingnya ranah budaya sebagai medan konflik yang signifikan dalam studi keamanan Asia Tenggara.

Abstract

The free movement in the Schengen Area was gradually eroded by the reintroduction of Internal Border Controls (IBC), a trend currently being pursued not only by destination countries but also by transit countries such as the Czech Republic. Current literature largely employs securitization analysis with underlying existential threats, yet this approach fails to capture the logic underlying transit countries' policies. This paper aims to deconstruct the Czech Republic's IBC policy for 2020-2024, arguing that it is driven by a preventive logic of riskification. Through qualitative discourse analysis of government documents and secondary data, the study uncovers three aspects of riskification. First, the grammar justifies policies based on potential risks such as pandemics and the domino effect of migration pressure. Second, the locus of policy management of referential objects is not only migrants but also “what they carry” as evidenced by joint forces and random checks. Third, the performative effects of these policies create a new long-term border governance through intensive cooperation and joint patrols with neighbouring countries. This study demonstrates how risk management logic consistently erodes core principles of European integration, sacrificing for security measures to manage borders against future potential risks.

Abstract

This article examines how the KAAN fighter jet procurement deepened defense relations between Indonesia and Türkiye through defense diplomacy. Using Lech Drab’s framework of defense diplomacy, the article argues that the KAAN case should be understood not merely as a procurement decision, but as a form of strategic engagement that elevated bilateral defense relations to a more intensive and institutionalized level. Methodologically, the study applies a qualitative single case study design, with data collected through a structured desk review of official statements, policy documents, company releases, academic works, and reputable news reports, and analyzed through thematic analysis. The findings show that the KAAN procurement deepened Indonesia-Türkiye defense relations through three connected mechanisms: the strengthening of strategic trust, the expansion of defense-industrial cooperation, and the enhancement of Indonesia’s defense capability. More broadly, the article finds that Indonesia’s cooperation with Türkiye reflects an effort to build a stable long-term defense relationship that can widen Indonesia’s strategic influence while preserving its autonomy amid great-power competition. The case also confirms that defense diplomacy remains a practical means through which middle powers can simultaneously build confidence, strengthen military capability, and develop the defense industry. In this sense, the KAAN case demonstrates the growing sophistication of defense diplomacy among middle powers. Lastly, this study is limited to a single qualitative case and does not assess the long-term operational outcomes of the KAAN program or compare it systematically with Indonesia’s other procurement pathways.

Abstract

This study examines the securitization strategy advanced by the UK government concerning Gibraltar’s sovereignty and its fraught relationship with Schengen membership in the post-Brexit period. The research focuses on border control methods and official statements and how Gibraltarians react to these measures as their main point of object referent. The research establishes new knowledge through its investigation of speech acts and public opinions and its evaluation of state actions which convert border matters into national security threats. The research uses qualitative case-study methodology to analyze secondary documents which include official statements and legislative instruments such as the Protocol on Gibraltar and related agreements and media reports and discourse analysis. The research reveals three connected systems which work together to achieve their goals: (1) Speech acts serve to validate British control over UK Overseas Territory; (2) Gibraltarians support British sovereignty yet they want to maintain their European freedom of movement; (3) The UK implements three exceptional border control systems which combine military patrols with dual identification checks and special border procedures to defend their sovereignty while creating more travel obstacles. The research establishes a direct link between political statements and actual border changes and institutional developments which shows that securitization like used as function to maintain current sovereignty structures (status quo) instead of creating lasting solutions for border movement. The research results include vital policy recommendations which impact multilevel negotiations that occur on the Iberian Peninsula
