Abstract

This study examines the multifaceted impacts of corrupt practices in the nickel mining industry in North Maluku. Corrupt practices in the mining sector remain a major issue, leading to various problems such as agrarian conflicts, environmental degradation, economic inequality, and health issues. Numerous studies indicate that these corrupt practices stem from the same scheme such as excessive exploitation of natural resources due to abuse of power by political elites at both local and national levels, who collude with entrepreneurs to commit maladministration mining permits, issuing overlapping licenses, and seizing land. This qualitative research collects data through interviews, field observations, and documentation. Data analysis includes reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The study reveals that the nickel mining business in North Maluku still contradicts the principles of sustainable environmental conservation, human rights, and neglects the living rights of local communities. Therefore, To mitigate the impacts of mining exploitation, entrepreneurs need stronger corporate social responsibility, effective government policies, building collaborative partnerships, eliminating institutional corruption, and prioritizing a holistic and integrated approach to surrounding communities through social and economic development programs that emphasize community welfare and improve the equality of the environment, community, health, and local economy.

Abstract

This study examines religious polarization in North Maluku, proposing moderated identity politics and a hybrid representation model to explain post-conflict electoral behavior. It highlights local leaders who strategically balance identity appeals with cross-group alliances, integrating structural and agential factors to advance electoral theory and offer a replicable model for mitigating identity-based conflict in plural Indonesian regions. Using a mixed-methods sequential explanatory design, quantitative data were first collected from 100 proportionally sampled respondents. Subsequently, in-depth qualitative interviews were conducted with 17 key informants. Data triangulation, comparing survey results with interview findings, ensured consistency and strengthened the validity of the research conclusions. The study presents four novel contribution findings. First, it challenges conventional religious voting, demonstrating Sherly Tjoanda’s Catholic victory in a Muslim-majority province, attributed to economic pragmatism, political legacy, and networks over religious affiliation. Second, it introduces the Hybrid Representation Model, combining development performance with a moderate religious figure. Third, it refines voter decision-making through Post-Conflict Electoral Rationality and welfare populism, illustrating how trauma fosters pragmatism. Finally, it develops Moderated Identity Politics, integrating local factors like Nahdlatul Ulama’s influence and conflict trauma to reduce polarization and promote electoral pragmatism. The 2024 North Maluku gubernatorial election, with the Sherly-Sarbin ticket’s victory, exemplified pragmatic considerations outweighing religious identity. This model outcome establishes Moderated Identity Politics that can depolarize elections by endorsing competence-based, cross-faith alliances, and prioritizes a competence-plus-credibility approach. In contexts with a dominant, moderate Islamic organization and where economic competition is not a zero-sum game.
