Abstract

This study was based on good governance theory, which considers the importance of citizens' trust in government in multiple contexts, including the public health crisis, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Various studies have been conducted to determine the factors that influence people's behavior in times of contagion. This study looked at how citizens' risk perceptions of being infected and trust in government influenced their behavior. Additionally, gender role was assessed to see if it shaped behavioral changes. Data was collected from 505 respondents by a river sampling technique and analyzed using SmartPLS 3.0 software. The study found that the onset of coronavirus had a significant impact on citizens' risk perceptions of being infected, change of behaviors, and trust in government. Moreover, it was revealed that females were more conscious of the infection risks associated with the pandemic and, as such, behaved responsibly than their male counterparts. This study adds to the existing body of literature that government decisions in the best interests of citizens can help foster trust among citizens throughout a crisis.

Abstract

The determining factor in the success and failure of advocacy is the support network in a coalition formed in policy advocacy. This study analyzes the Kendeng Mountains Community Caring Network in refusing an environmental permit for the construction of a cement factory in Kendeng Mountains, Pati, Indonesia. The government issued the Decree of the Regent of Pati No. 660.1/4767/2014 regarding the environmental permit for the construction of a cement factory. On the other hand, the people around the Kendeng Mountains who have inhabited the area for a dozen years are worried about the plan to build a cement factory that will threaten the ecological balance. The approach used in this study was the Actor-Network Theory of Michael Callon as it can see the phenomenon of the network formed by a Civil Society Organization (CSO) in rejecting the policy of developing the cement industry in their area. This study employed a qualitative method that stands on an interpretive paradigm. Data were collected by observation, documentation, in-depth interviews, and Focus Group Discussion (FGD). The results of this study showed that based on numerous dynamics of the overall use of existing network access, coalition actors have succeeded in proposing the desired policy changes in the form of stricter regulations. These winning coalitions are more often involved in a variety of strategies and have greater public support. Finally, this study contributes significantly to the usefulness of the Actor-Network Theory approach in policy change.

Abstract

The study explored the perspective and experiences of jail wardens in managing jail facilities in the Philippines for the calendar year 2019. A qualitative study with a transcendental phenomenological research design was used. The study focused on 10 jail wardens from correctional facilities in the provinces of Zamboanga del Norte and Zamboanga del Sur, Philippines. The themes reflect the participants' experiences on the conditions of correctional facilities and their viewpoint on quality correction such as erosion in conformity with the rules, scarcity of resources critical to jail services, the perils of poor staffing, freedom from congestion, infrastructure development, technology in correction, lifelong attempt for improvement and character development. This study concluded that the problems and challenges encountered by the correctional wardens in handling persons deprived of liberty (inmates) and in managing the jail facilities affected their roles and responsibilities in improving the conditions in the correctional facilities such as in the implementation of the reformation process of the PDLs, peace, and order within the facility, and in securing the safety of the personnel and the community. Thus, it is high time for the government and the legislative body of the Philippine government to improve the quality of correctional facilities, the following may be considered: the installation of high technology, construction of new and standard correctional facilities, and quick rehabilitation of old, outdated, or destroyed jails, allocation of budget or appropriations to enable the employment of more staff/personnel, and limiting the number of inmates in a prison cell.

Abstract

This article described the development of Ngebel tourism using a website. The tourism development concept uses the principles of e-government, such as government to citizens (G2C), government to government (G2G), and government to business (G2B). The study employed qualitative methods such as observation and focus group discussions (FGD) in collecting data. Data was analyzed using Nvivo 12 Plus software and the findings showed the Dolan Ngebel website applies the principles of government to citizens and government to business. This development was also received positively by the community and business people in the tourism industry. The website provides detailed information regarding the tourist attractions and facilities. Also, it is equipped with a map to make it easier for tourists to locate their destination. Overall, its use will help promote tourism to the locals and the international community. However, its development faces obstacles, including a lack of techsavvy human resources.

Abstract

Assessing parliamentary committees’ performance is important as it can ensure good governance. This has prompted various scholars and practitioners to devise several evaluation methods over the past two decades. Some of the methods include measuring the number of important bills that committees pass, measuring the number of important issues that committees address and measuring the number of unimportant bills, which committees block. While all these methods are important in advancing the knowledge of assessing committees’ performance, they are not very useful to parliamentary actors such as parliamentarians as they lack the sense of contemporaneousness in their measurements. It is in this context that using documentary review and data from reliable sources such as World Governance Indicators, this paper innovatively presents a rule of thumb proposing that parliamentary committees’ performance should instantaneously, be measured by the extent to which actions of a particular committee are consistent with three E’s namely, economy, effectiveness and efficiency.

Abstract

Ontology is the process of discussing knowledge from a philosophical point of view. Therefore, this research aims to explain the nature of government studies based on ontology, which is a governmental science used to carry out periodic paradigm shifts. Data was collected from the Scopus database and reviewed using the systematic method. The results showed that government studies are associated with the management of the executive and legislative branches, their leadership, and the relationship between central and local government and between government and society. The study of government science progress is in three phases; the first determines the essence of science in governance and ends with the third phase, which is the development of the concept of good governance. The governance concept is considered a solution to the crisis of lack of public trust in the government and their participation, effectiveness, accountability, and coherence in community activities. This becomes the wheels of government by mono and multi-stakeholder. Collaborative correlation is the initiation by the government to involve the public and the private sector.

Abstract

Human Development Index (HDI) determines human prosperity in different countries using value assets. In general, the primary measurement includes the three basic indices, namely education, health, and a decent standard of living. HDI is a measure of development and governance success in terms of economic growth and human development. Generally, studies on HDI take place at the national and regional levels, and comparisons of its achievements between countries, while those at the municipal level are limited. Studies on the determinants of the success of increasing HDI tend to focus on local governments' fiscal capacity and political will and rarely touch the capacity of public administration in managing government, specifically in the development planning stage. This study examined the increased success of the Malang City's HDI by adopting a logical framework (log-frame) analysis with secondary data from the Malang bureau of statistics. The results showed an 80.89 increase in HDI from 2014 to 2018, including the education and health indexes, with a decent standard of living. The increased success is shown by the Regional Medium Term Development Plan (RPJMD), including basic education development program, regional public hospital service programs, and food security program for education, health, and purchasing power indices. Therefore, the local government needs to maintain and enhance the HDI in both medium- and long-term plans. The novelty of this study lies in the use of a logical framework in preparing regional development plans that support efforts to increase HDI consistently in the medium term. This reinforces the need to strengthen the perspective of how to achieve development goals compared to other studies that focus more on the perspective of the substance of development.

Abstract

This study aims to explore Islamic political parties in major Islamic countries. Previous studies have examined Islamic Political Parties with various topics accompanied by different focuses. However, no research has contributed to mapping the extent of the trend in the study of Islamic political parties. The breadth of space to examine the phenomenon of Islamic political parties offers an excellent opportunity for further researchers to re-examine this issue. To bridge this, trend studies and mapping of problems and themes were carried out. This study uses qualitative methods to analyze working texts on publications related to Islamic Political Parties. Research data is mined from the Scopus academic database using a search strategy to generate data relevant to the problem to be studied. In processing the mined data, we use Qualitative Data Analysis (QDA) software, Nvivo12 Plus. The results of an in-depth analysis of a collection of academic manuscripts mined from the Scopus academy database for two decades (2001-2021) yielded 171 documents for further study. The data analysis findings show that the intensity of documents in each country is different, which can then be further classified based on the type of document, subject area, author with the highest number of records, and distribution of affiliations and publishers. The level of document intensity in each country has been shown, with Turkey being the country that contributed the most documents, followed by Indonesia, Malaysia, and India. The dominant issues and themes of each country have also been identified.

Abstract

The local own-source revenues is crucial to be addressed. This study aims to provide an overview of the taxes and levies revenue and analyzes prospective local own-source revenues in Central Mamuju Regency. It uses primary and secondary data collected with direct observation in the field of research, literature study, in-depth interview, and focus group discussions (FGD) with stakeholders. The observation and literature study took place on several objects of taxes and levies: ten items of tax and eight items of retribution. Furthermore, the in-depth interview and online FGD were conducted. As a result, the potential for revenue from regional taxes and levies in Central Mamuju Regency is still more significant compared to the targets and realizations that the Central Mamuju government has initiated. Therefore, other potentials have not been optimized as a source of regional income. For instance, terminal retribution, market retribution, and waste retribution, after an in-depth study, the actual amount of potential is greater than the target set by the local government and the realization that has been achieved. Therefore, it requires more attention from the government to optimize the existing potential to increase local revenue.

Abstract

The representation of women in politics aims to deputize their interests. The problem is whether a female regional head candidate is more committed to women’s interests and represents women’s aspirations. What issues are raised in the campaign of a female candidate? This study aims to analyze women’s issues promoted by a female candidate in the 2020 Bengkalis Regional Head Election. The argument for taking the case study in Bengkalis is that a female candidate being the incumbent’s wife won the Regional Head Election, even though her husband had committed corruption and was sentenced to prison. Political family nominations are often based on popularity and family name, not on the candidate’s quality. This study analyzed women’s issues in the Regional Head Election with qualitative, descriptive, and NVivo analyses. The data were collected by documenting news in the media and the vision and mission presented by the candidate pairs. By taking the case of women’s issues in the political, economic, public service, social and legal sectors, the study results unveiled that all actors involved in the campaign, whether candidates, success teams, society, and public figures, were interested in women’s issues. Women’s issues becoming a concern in the campaign encompassed women’s economic empowerment, social security, health services, education, and domestic and children violence. Meanwhile, sanitation and the environment were not the issues in the campaign. The findings of this study reinforce previous studies that female candidates tend to raise issues related to social policy and redistribution and women’s services in the domestic sector.
