Abstract

This study aimed to extend the previous research conducted by Yospetch and Nimsai, as well as Kawuryan, concerning the global prominence of sustainable tourism research in Asia and Indonesia. The novelty of this study lay in its specific focus on sustainable tourism in Bali, a region with a longstanding history in tourism management. A relational bibliometric analysis was employed to provide a comprehensive overview of the relationships between metadata and analytical units, using tools such as PoP, Mendeley Desktop, and VOSviewer. From an analysis of 16 Scopus-indexed academic publications, three key findings were identified. First, a new research theme emerged between 2020 and 2025, namely the evaluation of government policy frameworks in relation to sustainable tourism. Second, the limited global visibility of research on sustainable tourism in Bali was attributed to the lack of international collaboration and the restricted diversity of keywords employed. Third, a discernible shift was observed in the dominant research themes between the periods 2010-2019 and 2020-2025. This thematic transition indicated potential avenues for future scholarly inquiry that could offer greater significance and impact within the international academic community.

Abstract

The Refugee Council of Australia (RCOA) is the important actor in advocating for temporary work rightsfor refugees amid the complexity of Australian asylum policy. This study analyses RCOA’s advocacystrategies in responding to asylum policy restrictions, particularly through the constructivist approachthat emphasises the importance of discourse and social norms. Using the qualitative methods throughthe document analysis of policy papers, public campaigns, and submissions to the government, this study adopts the advocacy strategy framework to examine how the RCOA operates in a policy environment shaped by the “balancing act” between the border security and humanitarian obligations. The research findings show that RCOA utilises the evidence-based lobbying, coalition building, and public engagementto drive policy change and reframe the narration around the refugees. Despite facing structural andpolitical barriers, RCOA’s advocacy contributes to increased public awareness and opens up space formore inclusive policy discussions. This study highlights the important role of civil society in advocating for refugee rights through approaches based on the dignity, social inclusion, and economic contribution.

Abstract

The revival of Global South studies in International Relations signifies a major transformation in contemporary global dynamics. This article addresses the question of how China appropriates the Global South narrative and how this shift reflects both coloniality of power and heterarchy of power. Using a discourse analysis approach, the study examines official speeches, policy documents, and global initiatives such as the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), BRICS, and the G77+China. The findings demonstrate that China employs South-South solidarity rhetoric to position itself as the leader of the Global South, yet in practice reproduces coloniality by creating new forms of dependency. Furthermore, the contemporary Global South reveals a heterarchical structure, where emerging powers such as China dominate smaller states. This indicates a shift in the meaning of the Global South: from the Bandung Spirit’s emancipatory ethos of anti-imperialism toward a pragmatic economic-political bloc driven by national interests. Thus, the revival of the Global South is paradoxical: it offers new opportunities for multipolarity among developing countries, while simultaneously undermining the emancipatory ideals of solidarity and equality that once defined the Bandung Spirit. Keywords: Global South; Bandung Spirit; China; Coloniality of Power; Heterarchy of Power Kebangkitan kembali kajian Global South dalam studi Hubungan Internasional menandai transformasi penting dalam dinamika global kontemporer. Artikel ini berangkat dari pertanyaan mengenai bagaimana China mengapropriasi wacana Global South dan bagaimana pergeseran makna ini mencerminkan kolonialitas dan heterarki kuasa. Dengan menggunakan metode analisis wacana, penelitian ini menelaah pidato resmi, dokumen kebijakan, serta inisiatif global seperti Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), BRICS, dan G77+China. Temuan pada penelitian menunjukkan bahwa China menggunakan retorika solidaritas selatan untuk memosisikan dirinya sebagai pemimpin Global South, namun praktiknya mereproduksi logika kolonialitas dengan menciptakan relasi ketergantungan baru. Selain itu, Global South kontemporer memperlihatkan struktur heterarki emerging powers seperti China menempati posisi dominan atas negara-negara kecil. Hal ini mengindikasikan adanya pergeseran makna Global South: dari spirit emansipatoris Bandung yang menolak imperialisme, menuju blok ekonomi-politik pragmatis yang sarat kepentingan nasional China. Dengan demikian, kebangkitan Global South bersifat paradoksal: membuka ruang multipolaritas baru bagi negara-negara berkembang, tetapi sekaligus mengikis nilai-nilai emansipasi dan kesetaraan yang menjadi fondasi Bandung Spirit. Kata-kata Kunci: Global South; Bandung Spirit; China; Kolonialitas Kekuasaan; Heterarki Kekuasaan

Abstract

Despite the growing body of literature on paradiplomacy, its normative dimensions, particularly the role of cities in shaping migrant protection norms, remain underexplored. This article examines how South Korean cities with significant Indonesian migrant populations, specifically Ansan, Busan, and Incheon, function as norm-bearing actors within global migration governance. It explores how sub-national cooperation with Indonesian local governments facilitates the localization and institutionalization of migrant protection norms beyond conventional state-centric frameworks. Grounded in constructivist international relations theory, the study integrates Finnemore and Sikkink’s (1998) norm life cycle model with Acharya’s (2004) norm localization framework to analyze how global human rights-based migration norms are interpreted, adapted, and embedded in local governance practices. Employing a qualitative case study approach, the research draws on policy documents, municipal government reports, migrant support center publications, and secondary institutional sources from both Indonesia and South Korea. The findings identify three interrelated dimensions of city-level norm enactment. First, cities frame migrants as rights-bearing residents rather than temporary laborers. Second, they establish localized support infrastructures, including multilingual counseling services, migrant healthcare programs, and community-based welfare initiatives. Third, they participate in transnational policy learning and inter-city cooperation to strengthen migrant protection. These practices demonstrate how cities exercise norm-bearing agency by translating international migration norms into practical local governance despite their limited formal authority. Nevertheless, their capacity to influence migration governance remains constrained by South Korea’s centralized migration regime, particularly in matters of labor recruitment, visa regulation, and bilateral migration agreements. The article argues that South Korean cities constitute a distinct layer of sub-national normative governance that complements, mediates, and, in selected policy domains, extends national migration frameworks. By repositioning city diplomacy as a mechanism of normative governance rather than merely economic or cultural cooperation, this study contributes to paradiplomacy literature while highlighting the growing importance of sub-national actors in advancing rights-based approaches to migrant protection within multi-level migration governance.
