Abstract

This research analyzes the role and influence of the United States as a superpower from the late 20th century to the early 21st century, focusing on military, economic, political, and cultural power. After the Soviet Union's collapse, the United States became the dominant force in international policy, with significant global power projection through a large defense budget and advanced technology. Economically, its influence is seen in the dollar's dominance and leading technology companies. Politically, the U.S. plays a central role in international organizations like the UN and NATO. Culturally, American media and technology have led to widespread "Americanization." Despite its influence, the U.S. faces criticism for unilateral policies and military interventions, along with domestic challenges such as economic inequality and racial tensions, and the rise of powers like China and Russia. This research provides insights into how the U.S. maintains its superpower status and addresses global challenges.

Abstract

This article examines the representation of labor in the newspaper De Locomotief from 1864 to 1870, when the Dutch East Indies underwent a shift from liberal agrarian policies to a system of forced cultivation. The purpose of this study is to reveal the ideological position of De Locomotief in understanding labor issues in Java and its relationship to colonial political changes at the end of the 19th century. Using the Delpher digital archive of the Koninklijke Bibliotheek as the primary source, historical methods were employed through the stages of heuristics, source criticism, interpretation, and historiography. To analyze the relationship between language, ideology, and power in media texts, Norman Fairclough's Critical Discourse Analysis methodology was used. The research shows that De Locomotief displayed a critical attitude towards colonial policy through its reporting on labor exploitation, contract violations, inadequate wages, and the debunking of the myth of “indigenous laziness” as colonial legitimation. Unlike its contemporary colonial newspapers, such as Java-Bode and Soerabaijasch Handelsblad, De Locomotief always raised labor issues as structural problems. This study confirms that colonial media played an important role in creating critical discussions that contributed to changes in agrarian policy leading up to the enactment of the Agrarische Wet in 1870.
