Abstract

The urgency of this research lies in the need to understand the trends, contributions, and dynamics of women's political participation globally. This article aims to map studies that focus on women's political participation. Research methods include bibliometric analysis with data sources from the Scopus database. The study's findings reflect significant growth in women's political participation research, especially in recent years, with distribution varying by country and research theme. The research findings also show that although there are themes that have received attention, there are still areas that need to be explored further, such as intersectionality, gender equality, gender, and the impact of social media that provide insight into the complexity of women's political participation issues. This study recommends the need for increased research and local understanding of the factors influencing women's political participation in Indonesia to strengthen women's role in politics by learning from other countries that have successfully implemented inclusive policies. In addition, by involving various parties, including the government, research institutions, and civil society, Indonesia can create an environment that supports, empowers, and encourages women's political participation optimally. The implications of these findings not only help shape academic discourse, but also lay the foundation for concrete efforts to achieve gender equality and women's empowerment in the wider political sphere.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the implementation of waste management policies in Simeulue District. The method used is qualitative, while the informants are determined by purposive sampling. Data was collected through interviews and documentation. While data analysis is done by means of transcription, classification, and drawing conclusions, The results of the study show that the implementation of policies related to waste management, abbreviated as Jakstrakab, as stated in Simeulue Regent Regulation Number 21 of 2019, shows that: (1) Jakstrakab communication through outreach has not reached many groups; (2) resources are still limited, especially related to human resources, budget, and waste management facilities such as abandoned fleets, warehouses, and equipment; (3) regarding the disposition, there is still overlapping work; and (4) the large bureaucratic structure causes officers to carry out their duties and functions not in accordance with the established Jakstrakab. The study concludes that bureaucracy, commitment, efficient communication, and resource allocation are necessary for Simeulue's waste management policy to be implemented. It is necessary to overcome obstacles including poor communication, a lack of resources, and bureaucratic disarray. Simeulue may enhance waste management practices toward sustainability by strengthening communication, managing resources better, and enlisting the support of policy implementers.

Abstract

This paper intends to examine influence of the Council of Europe (CoE) in two major political parties of Turkiye through their election manifests during the first quarter of the 21st century. The ruling AK Parti and main opposition party, CHP, election manifests are reviewed via MAXQDA data analysis panel. As one of the founding member states of the Council Turkiye has got close ties with the organisation and this has impositions on the national politics. This being the case, the problem of how this area is put on the agenda and evaluated in terms of Turkish political life becomes important. The effects of the CoE on Turkish political parties are classified under eight headings. These headings are examined with the help of graphics as 8 subcategories: “law”, “fundamental rights and freedoms”, “foreign policy”, “public administration”, “fight against corruption”, “democracy”, “labour and social security” and “family and social policies”. Among these, “law” and “fundamental rights and freedoms” categories stand out as the most emphasized issues in the context of the CoE for both parties. Finally reveals that CHP and AK Parti priorities or emphases diverge on certain issues related to CoE. Thus, family and social policies for the CHP, and foreign policy and the fight against corruption for the AK Parti have defined the more prominent categories. Having examined the effects of the Council the paper draws a clear line of relations as far as the eight categories are concerned.

Abstract

This research investigates the challenges and opportunities associated with institutionalizing local government accountability, with a focus on the case of Nabire. The central research problem addressed is the intricate interplay between legislative-institutional relations and executive accountability, focusing on a specific case study that delves into the performance and transparency of the Regent of Nabire. The methodology involves a comprehensive examination of the Regent's actions and decisions, scrutinizing their adherence to legal frameworks, responsiveness to public concerns, and collaboration with the legislative body. Results indicate that while Nabire has made significant strides in certain areas of local government accountability, challenges persist, including issues related to resource allocation, capacity building, and community engagement. The study recommends tailored strategies for enhancing local government capacity, promoting community participation, and fostering collaboration between different levels of governance to ensure effective institutionalizing in Nabire. The findings contribute valuable insights to the broader discourse on improving local governance models, particularly in regions facing similar socio-economic and environmental challenges.

Abstract

The aim of this research is to determine the social, economic, and ecological impacts of Land Use Change (LUC) of forest areas into Palm Oil industrial areas. The research method used was exploratory qualitative and analyzed using Nvivo 12 Plus. he findings of this study show that there are several challenges in the industrial land use of oil palm in forest areas in Riau, Indonesia, such as land conflicts between communities, government, private sector, forest destruction, and natural disasters. Therefore, we suggest that in order to expedite the removal of oil palm plantations from forest areas and to expedite the issuance of plantation licenses for community, private, and government entities wishing to enter such areas, both the federal government and local governments must adopt policies and impose sanctions. This study serves as a knowledge base to address the social, economic and ecological issues resulting from Land Use Change (LUC) in the province from forest areas to industrial areas producing oil palm. The conclusion of this research is that Land Use Change (LUC) from forest area to palm oil industry area in Riau Province, Indonesia has positive and negative impacts on social, economic, and ecological aspects in Riau Province, Indonesia. The government of the Indonesian province of Riau benefits from this research on land use change (LUC) in the palm oil sector.

Abstract

This paper explores the use of new media platforms Twitch and TikTok by Turkish politicians leading up to the Presidential Elections of 2023. The paper focuses on the unique attributes of these platforms and establishes a comparison between the two by a coding scheme. This coding scheme has been constructed based on Cervi et al.’s (2023) methodological framework. It includes four themes: content, frequency, engagement, and interaction. These four themes will be examined through comparative analysis methodology. A selection of twenty TikTok videos for each sample and Twitch stream statistics will be analyzed by the numerical data, dates, and content pattern. To assess the political communication strategies that are applied by politicians, the paper will underline the possible importance of new media platforms in political campaigns. It should be noted that further research in this area is needed and there is also an emerging need to explore the evolving role of Twitch and TikTok in political campaigns.

Abstract

This study displays Twitter's relevance in collecting sentiments and evaluating social networks, notably in election processes. This study examines 10,000 tweets on the 2022 Philippine presidential election, gathered during the key week of May 9–13, 2022, to show Twitter's influence in molding the public conversation. The study found the most popular hashtags, including #halalan2022 and #eleksyon2022, highlighting their importance in the digital discussion around the election. A thorough social network study established eight key communities, demonstrating a strong connection among Filipino netizens during election-related debates. Among these, noteworthy people such as @RexelBartolome and @daywreckoning, as well as the news site @ABSCBNEWS, emerged as essential nodes, demonstrating their influence in information dissemination. Sentiment analysis of the tweets revealed a mostly neutral public mood toward the election, with frequent phrases such as "martial law" and "never again" indicating the discourse's underlying themes. This study examines Twitter as a valuable instrument for political analysis and advocates for a more sophisticated method of picking tweets that truly reflect community attitudes. Future studies should look beyond pre-election times to provide a complete picture of online debate, using Twitter's API for easy data gathering and analysis. This study closes a fundamental gap in understanding social media dynamics in the Philippines, providing insights for academic and practical applications in political communication.

Abstract

The traditional methods of vote counting and recapitulation, which include manual and layered processes, are important to ensuring data security and addressing a lack of understanding of public information technology. However, it is essential to quickly and properly disseminate election results among an increasing number of survey findings within the community. Despite this contradictory scenario, it is imperative to employ information technology tools like SITUNG and SIREKAP to ensure transparent dissemination of election outcomes. The study applies a descriptive qualitative approach, collecting primary and secondary data sources including official documents, journal articles, and textbooks. By using three analysis techniques; first, by tabulating the data; second, to categorize the data; third, interpreting the findings based on the theoretical and construction of the data. The results of this study showed three main challenges to the use of digital-based recapitulation: first, the lack of a clear legal basis for the SITUNG and SIREKAP applications, which has triggered criticism from election participants and observers; second, incomplete system support characterized by limited network connectivity, which has created difficulties for field operators in the local level; and third, inappropriate data management in the SITUNG and SIREKAP applications, which included incorrect data entry. Election organizers should be aware that technology-based recapitulation data can become digital evidence for contesting parties in election courts.

The second section studies the Saudi lawmaker's addressing the crime in terms of definition, forms, prescribed penalty and reasons for augmentation of penalty. The study has concluded to a set of results and recommendations, the most important of which is that the Saudi lawmaker adopted  position of the international conventions in defining crime and determining its forms. Moreover, the Kingdom has also made great strides in combating this type of crime at both international and local levels. The study recommended the need to impose harsh penalties on employers, who practice patterns of forced slavery to their workers, as well as the need to intensify efforts in order to take adequate measures to prevent smuggling the illegal labor.
