Abstract

This study aims to examine how the governance of the salt industry in Malaka Regency, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, affects local democracy, particularly by distinguishing between procedural and substantive democratic outcomes. Despite growing interest in the democratic implications of natural resource governance, existing studies on coastal extractive resources often conflate these two dimensions, leading to mixed conclusions. Employing a qualitative single-case study approach, data were collected through field observations, in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and desk research. The findings reveal that salt governance in Malaka triggered grassroots resistance and significantly increased voter turnout in the 2020 regional elections, ultimately contributing to the fall of a dominant political dynasty. These developments reflect a strengthening of procedural democracy through heightened civic engagement and electoral accountability. However, the same governance processes resulted in substantive democratic failures, including land dispossession, environmental degradation, and violations of customary rights. Furthermore, the political transition led to the rise of a cartel-style regime, where elites reconfigured power through alliances among business actors, bureaucrats, and political leaders. This study concludes that coastal extractive governance can simultaneously advance procedural democracy while undermining substantive democracy and calls for a more nuanced evaluation of democratic quality in resource-dependent, decentralized regions.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze pentahelix collaboration in waste management in Kupang City, East Nusa Tenggara Province. Waste, particularly household waste, has become a serious problem in almost all major cities in Indonesia, including Kupang. The research employs a qualitative approach using in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis. The findings reveal significant limitations in human resources, transportation facilities, containers, and budget allocation for waste management. Collaboration among stakeholders remains minimal, with the waste management roadmap yet to be widely socialized. Existing legal instruments are limited to MoUs, cooperation agreements, and temporary decrees. Moreover, public awareness of sorting and disposing of waste properly remains low. The novelty of this study lies in highlighting that waste management cannot be addressed solely by the government but requires pentahelix collaboration involving local government, communities, the private sector, media, and academia. The impact of this research is twofold: it exposes systemic weaknesses in waste governance in peripheral regions while underscoring the importance of cross-actor collaboration. The practical recommendations offered include establishing permanent regulations, strengthening infrastructure, ensuring sustainable budget allocation, and promoting environmental literacy, starting from families to educational institutions. Thus, this study not only identifies problems but also provides concrete policy directions for strengthening sustainable waste governance in Kupang City.

Abstract

The credit point policy for lecturers plays a central role in academic promotion within higher education. However, its implementation often faces multiple challenges, particularly in institutions with limited administrative and digital capacities. This study specifically aims to examine the policy content and implementation context of the credit point system at Nusa Cendana University during 2022–2024, with a focus on identifying the key barriers and enablers shaping academic promotion outcomes. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through interviews, observations, and document analysis involving 15 key informants, including university leaders, faculty administrators, and lecturers. Findings reveal that although the policy is formally grounded in national regulations, its practical application is hindered by limited policy literacy, complex procedural requirements, unequal workload distribution, insufficient technical assistance, and weak institutional support. These barriers have led to ineffective promotion outcomes and underutilization of the policy’s potential. To address these challenges, the study recommends simplifying technical guidelines, enhancing institutional coordination, accelerating administrative digitalization, and fostering a supportive academic ecosystem. A web-based information system is also proposed to assist lecturers in calculating and managing credit points more efficiently. By applying Grindle’s policy implementation framework, this research contributes to the literature on higher education governance by demonstrating how national-level regulatory instruments are mediated by institutional capacity and local contextual realities, particularly in resource-constrained universities in peripheral regions of Indonesia.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to explain the level of representation of women in bureaucratic, structural positions and the inhibiting factors they face in occupying bureaucratic, structural positions in East Flores Regency. The research method used is qualitative descriptive with interviews of 13 informants determined through purposive. The results of this study explain that in the last three years, the number of female civil servants in echelons II and III is less than that of men. In 2021, there were three female civil servants left because, in 2020, one of the female civil servants died. Furthermore, in 2022, one of the female civil servants finished her term. The inhibiting factors faced by women in bureaucratic, structural positions are viewed in two forms: 1) internal constraints such as lack of self-confidence and the multiple roles played by women, 2) external constraints related to a) constraints from the family, and b) constraints from society related to the value system and norms. The research is expected as input for East Flores Regency

Abstract

This article explores the impact of top-down delayering policies on government employees in vertical institutions in Eastern Indonesia. This study used a qualitative approach through in-depth interviews with government employees in three vertical agencies in East Nusa Tenggara. Four main dimensions are explained: job suitability with competencies, future career patterns, innovative work behavior, and employee welfare. Findings indicate a significant mismatch betsween employee competencies and the demands of the new position, resulting in decreased efficiency, role confusion, and low morale. Concerns about unclear future career patterns were also identified, affecting employee motivation and morale. On the other hand, the transition to a more functional structure contributes to an increase in innovative work behavior, with employees feeling more empowered to make creative contributions. Apart from that, this policy also positively impacts the economic welfare of employees through increasing benefits and performance. This research underscores the importance of effective change management, adequate preparation, and communication in implementing bureaucratic delayering policies. Limitations of the study include the limited sample and focus on individual perceptions.

Abstract

This study investigates the critical factors influencing the initiation of Public Sector Innovation (PSI) in Indonesia, focusing on governance and service-type innovations within two local government settings: Yogyakarta and Kupang. The methodology employed was a qualitative approach with multiple case studies complemented by the critical incident technique for data analysis. The data were gathered from 23 informants who played significant roles in the early stages of the innovation process at the local government level. The findings reveal that in Yogyakarta, the successful initiation of innovations such as Sego Segawe and YES 119 was primarily driven by robust political leadership, extensive external networks, and the availability of resources. In contrast, the innovations in Kupang, such as Kupang Green and Clean (KGC) and Brigade Kupang Sehat (BKS), were heavily influenced by strong collaboration with external stakeholders and the adaptability of innovations to local conditions. A comparative analysis of the two cases underscores that while both regions benefited from political support and external collaboration, the specific local context and available resources played a crucial role in shaping the innovation process. The novelty of this research lies in its cross-regional comparison, which provides new insights into how local contexts in different geographic regions of Indonesia influence the initiation and success of public sector innovations. These insights contribute to the broader PSI literature by highlighting the importance of contextual factors in successfully initiating public sector innovations in developing countries.

Abstract

This study investigates the critical challenges hindering sustainable community-based tourism (CBT) deve- lopment in the Fatumnasi tourism area of East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. The research addresses gaps in previous studies that often overlook specific causes of success or failure and predominantly focus on developed regions or other developing countries with better infrastructure. Utilizing a qualitative case study method, data were collected through semi-structured interviews, focus group discussions, field observations, and document analysis. Key findings reveal that socio-economic challenges, infrastructural deficiencies, governance and policy issues, community engagement and empowerment, and environmental and cultural preservation are significant barriers. The novelty of this research lies in its comprehensive examination of these barriers within the unique context of Fatumnasi, providing detailed insights into the challenges newly developing regions face. The study contributes valuable recommendations for policy-makers and community stakeholders to enhance the sustainability and benefits of CBT initiatives in similar areas.
