Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk memberikan pemahaman kepada siswa SMA mengenai digital diplomasi dengan menggunakan sosial media.Banyak anggapan bahwa setiap postingan dalam sosial media mengenai promosi negara merupakan bentuk dari diplomasi digital. Tetapi, tidak semua kegiatan promosi yang berkaitan dengan negara merupakan diplomasi digital. Dalam ranah publik diplomasi, masyarakat dapat mengoptimalkan penggunaan sosial media untuk mempromosikan negaranya atau lainnya yang erat kaitannya dengan digital diplomasi. Pemuda, sebagai pengguna sosial media terbanyak di Indonesia, dapat menggunakan hal ini. Namun, ditemukan masih kurangnya pemahaman mengenai digital diplomasi dan bagaimana mengefektifkannya untuk tujuan diplomasi. Untuk itu, kegiatan pengabdian ini dirancang dengan tujuan akhir memberikan pemahaman penggunaan sosial media untuk tujuan diplomasi kepada siswa sekolah. Diharapkan dari kegiatan ini, siswa mampu menggunakan sosial media lebih efektif ketikan melakukan promosi negaranya. Metode yang digunakan berupa penyampaian materi secara online yang dilanjutkan dengan pelatihan pembuatan posting melalui sosial media, setiap siswa diminta mempresentasikan hasil postingan dan indikator diplomasi digital yang tersirat dalam setiap rancangan postingannya. Kemudian, tim pengabdian menganalisa menggunakan komponen efektifitas digital diplomasi. Hasil dari kegiatan ditemukan bahwa peserta mengetahui maksud dari diplomasi, mampu menggunakan sosial media dan indikator-indikator dalam pencapaian digital diplomasi, namun belum sepenuhnya mampu menggunakan bersamaan instrument digital diplomasi.

Governance has become an interesting field of study in public administration. The shifting of authority from central government to local government and even to village level becomes a challenge as well as an opportunity for bureaucrats to provide community services. It justifies why understanding of ideal and relevant governance is needed to solve current problems. As a bureaucracy aiming to serve the community, Nagari is expected to be able fulfilling the society’s needs. Based on this condition, this initiative was conducted in Nagari Talang Anau, Kecamatan Gunuang Omeh, 50 Kota Regency, West Sumatera Province to solve the problems of limited understanding of local government employees regarding state administration (government). To achieve this goal, the program began by contacting and making confirmation with Wali Nagari and then followed by training and socialization regarding state administration system (government), public policy formulation in Nagari, and community services. The result indicated that there were several problems in Nagari Talang Anau administration, such as limited access to information and technology sector, lack of programs by Lembaga Pemberdayaan Masyarakat (LPM) and insufficient human resources. Based on these problems, the authors and the team members suggested that Nagari administration should focus more on the issue of improving the quality of human resources.

Globalisation creates changes at the national level and also in the international system. The concept of state along with its national interest are challenged by globalisation process. As a significant part of foreign policy, the national interest concept needs an adjustment in this modern era. The emergence of non-state actors also contribute to the transformation of global community. The large number of states integrate in international or regional organisations cause a tension between national interest and collective interest of a state. Therefore, this article suggests that a state needs to reconsider its concept of national interest since there are many changes occur in the globalised international system. The “old ideas of national interest” proposed by realists could be irrelevant in the today’s world.

When Europe was hit by the refugee crisis in 2015, Germany as the leader of the European Union implemented policies that contrasted markedly with those of other member countries. Through the Open Door Policy under the command of Angela Merkel, Germany voluntarily opened its borders so that refugees were able to enter its territory. Unfortunately, this policy triggered many protests and rejections from various circles. Among these were members of the general public, opposition parties, Merkel's own party, interest groups and the European Union as a regional umbrella for Germany. The determination of this policy did not involve the participation of the Bundestag (level I parliament) in a democratic manner, either. Despite the many objections that arose, Merkel remained adamant about defending and enforcing her controversial policy. This attitude reflects the existence of a separate perspective or perception that Merkel had in seeing the refugee crisis, so she established an Open Door Policy. This paper will shed light on how Angela Merkel's personal perception could have led to her choice of providing protection for refugees despite having to face various forms of resistance. By using the framework of the relationship between perception and decision-making according to Ole R. Holsti, it was found that belief and image systems influenced Angela Merkel's perception that Germany should be the main actor in responding to the refugee crisis that occurred in the European Union region and the rest of the world as well.

AbstractThis paper seeks to explain the importance of faith-based organizations as social capital during the new normal era in West Sumatra. Considering West Sumatra is identical with the strong Islamic Identity and the increase of Covid-19 cases which put the region in the 6th highest number in Indonesia, this research is imperative to be conducted. Referring to WHO’s policy, the local government of West Sumatra has imposed several regulations for new normal adaption and controlling the Covid-19 in the society. Therefore, this paper uses qualitative methods and social capital is applied for interpreting data. The data used in this study is the primary and secondary data—the primary data. We argues that the religious character of West Sumatra society provides opportunities for faith-based organizations to support the government in reducing the number of positive cases by educating people through Ulama who actively play a role in daily life. Abstrak Tulisan ini berupaya untuk menjelaskan mengenai pentingnya organisasi berbasis agama sebagai modal sosial pada masa new normal di Sumatera Barat. Sumatera Barat identik dengan identitas Islam yang kuat. Peningkatan kasus Covid-19 menempatkan Sumatera Barat pada urutan ke-6 di Indonesia. Maka dari itu penelitian ini menjadi penting untuk dilakukan. Mengacu pada kebijakan WHO, Pemerintah Daerah Sumatera Barat telah memberlakukan peraturan tentang adaptasi new normal dan pengendalian Covid-19 di masyarakat. Tulisan ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dan modal sosial digunakan untuk menginterpretasikan data. Jenis data primer dan data sekunder digunakan dalam tulisan ini. Kami berpendapat bahwa karakter masyarakat Sumatera Barat yang agamais memberikan peluang bagi organisasi berbasis agama dalam mendukung pemerintah menekan jumlah kasus positif dengan mendidik masyarakat lewat ulama yang aktif berperan dalam kehidupan sehari-hari.
