This article aims to comprehensively examine the export potential of Pisang Mas from Tanggamus Regency to the global market. This research was conducted by identifying production capacity, analyzing the readiness of the supply chain and supporting infrastructure, and evaluating opportunities and challenges in penetrating the international market. The research methodology used is a qualitative approach with a literature study. Data were obtained through export-import statistical reports, scientific journals, and data from international trade bodies such as the ITC and FAO. A value chain analysis was conducted to map the stages of production to effective and efficient distribution. The results show that Pisang Mas Tanggamus has a competitive advantage in terms of taste and visual appearance that are in demand by international consumers but faces challenges such as limited logistics infrastructure, unmet quality standards and international certification, low export literacy among farmers and dependence on the domestic market. The conclusion of this study states that the development of Pisang Mas exports from Tanggamus Regency has great potential and is feasible with strengthening the production system, improving quality, and active involvement of stakeholders. This effort is expected to provide a significant economic impact for local farmers, strengthen Indonesia's position in the global horticultural market and contribute to increasing the country's foreign exchange.

This paper aims to explain Turkey's border security policy in dealing with non-state actors in Northern Syria. Turkey's policy was carried out after five years of involvement in the Syrian crisis and one month after a failed coup attempt. This study uses the theory of securitization by Buzan that explains the existence of threat and vulnerability factors faced by the state in anarchic international structures. The research method used in this study is a qualitative method with the type of causality analysis. This paper found that threats and vulnerabilities pushed Turkey to launch a series of military operations as border security policies to rid North Syria of ISIS and PKK/PYD/YPG militias to control the adverse effects caused by the presence of non-state actors such as civilian and military casualties, property damage, as well as instability and disintegration. The border security policy confirms the increasingly important role of Turkey in the region while demonstrating Turkey's consistency in pursuing national security interests even outside its territory

Bandar Lampung is one of the destinations in Sumatera that is developing tourism potential and hosting events to increase visitor numbers. Tourist visits from neighborhood areas have demonstrated that both the city of Bandar Lampung and the province of Lampung are not priorities among destinations. Such low achievement indicates another factor besides infrastructure and destination eligibility that is needed by tourists or visitors. The community service team assumed the contributing factors, such as value internalization and hospitality practices far from compliant with the market target. This community service program aimed to explore and internalize awareness of the importance of hospitality in tourism in Bandar Lampung. Three different groups of youth participants were involved. The program can leverage the participants’ understanding of hospitality practices. In addition, the commitment to creating the ‘Lampung Punn’ community has been conceived to promote hospitality values more widely.

Para-diplomacy has been the agenda of many mega-cities and through which they can express their capacity as well as creativity to pursue specific interests beyond borders. For cities, para-diplomacy can be conducted in many forms starting from merely ceremonial activities to the transnational municipal networks (TMNs). The city active engagement in global forums which mostly belong to the TMNs’ agenda is often associated with the regional leader’s international visibility in global conversations. This paper aims to explain the determinant driving the regional leader’s international visibility within para-diplomacy practice, choosing Jakarta as a case study. This research applied the qualitative method and constructivist approach to investigate the role of ideational factor. The research found that the idea of global city embraced by the regional leader – constructing the city’s identity and interests – encouraged the leader to be active in global forums. The city’s international visibility which was represented by the leader paved Jakarta to be an active global city and through which it would be able to promote its local development and enhance its global role in responding to global issues. This paper suggests that the internal determinants like the regional leaders (governor, mayor) with certain values matter to direct city para-diplomacy whether to project its leadership or merely to prioritize its bilateral para-diplomacy.

Ecological and sustainability awareness are emerging as new competencies among citizens, in line with the rise of environmental issues as both global and local concerns. Students, especially those studying International Relations, learn about environment-related topics and sustainability through formal classroom education. The issue is that they may have enough knowledge but lack experience in how environments and sustainability are promoted in real life or at the local level. It is necessary to connect theories and practices through an internship at a non-governmental organization specializing in environment and sustainability. This program involved the students of International Relations at Universitas Lampung and its partner, Wahana Lingkungan Hidup (Walhi), aiming to develop ecological and sustainability awareness along with practical skills, enabling them to observe and participate in environmental and sustainability projects and interact with stakeholders. This program was expected to benefit participants, partner, and the higher education institution, strengthening partnerships and collaboration in addressing common challenges.

Permasalahan Umat Islam dalam menerapkan Al-Qur’an sebagai panduan hidup (operasionalisasi/membumikan) adalah tidak bertemunya makna konsep-konsep di dalam teks dengan konsep-konsep di dalam realitas kehidupan atau science sebagai generalisasi realitas (non-complementary paradigm). Hal ini membawa Umat Islam pada kondisi anomali, dimana visi kerosulan adalah sebagai Rohmatan lil Alamin yang berarti kesejahteraan atau sebuah kondisi terpenuhinya kebutuhan jasmani dan rohani manusia serta kelestarian lingkungan, dilandasi keamanan atau perdamaian, dan bertopang pada keadilan, akan tetapi realitasnya umat Islam sendiri hidup di dalam kekerasan dan kemiskinan. Pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk mengkonstruksi dan mensosialisasikan norma kesuksesan dalam Perspektif Islam bertempat di Pesantren Teknologi Riau, yang merupakan salah satu institusi pendidikan Islam yang mempersiapkan calon-calon intelektual muslim di masa depan

Among the Arab Spring revolutions, the case of Syria could be the one that retained global attention due to its impact on regional instability and humanitarian crisis. The long-lasting conflict, originating from demand for regime change in the country, involved the armed groups and was fueled by the intervention of great powers along with other external actors since the beginning in 2011. This study aims to describe typologies of conflict, taking the Syrian conflict as a case study, focusing on the competing interactions between the armed groups and placing it as an intra-state conflict during its first four years, from 2011 to 2014. This study employed the qualitative case study approach and armed conflict typologies to address the question. The results show that Syria’s conflict was very complex, in which most of the armed groups fought against one another. While the conflict was leading to a form of war by intensity, it also represented other types of conflicts, such as civil war, state-formation or secessionist conflict, and non-state armed conflict.
