Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed human communication patterns by encouraging more intense digital interactions. The push for access to the internet is also getting higher to complement the limitations of the offline space of various social and economic activities, which are transformed into digital space. Even though we have entered the post-pandemic era, internet users continue to increase. Moreover, as one of the most dynamic regions and high internet penetration Southeast Asian nations are prone to online gender-based violence. This research focuses on how far ASEAN as a regional organization addressing online gender-based violence. The gender approach and cyber security are used as a conceptual framework to describe the role and challenges of ASEAN in eradicating OGBV during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The research results highlighted how far COVID-19 shapes people's interactions and eventually creates insecurities in the cyber arena. Gender approach contextualized gender bias and imbalance of power relations in a patriarchal society as cyber security is highly labeled as masculine. Thus, a collaboration between state, intergovernmental organizations, and domestic stakeholders is necessary in order to eradicate OGBV, promoting gender equality in ASEAN legal framework in order to establish a safer virtual space for Southeast Asian society.Bahasa Indonesia Abstract: Pandemi COVID-19 telah mengubah pola komunikasi manusia dengan terus mendukung interaksi digital yang semakin intens. Tekanan untuk akses terhadap internet juga terus meningkat untuk mendukung keterbatasan interaksi luar jaringan dalam bentuk beragam aktivitas sosial dan ekonomi, yang kemudian dialihkan ke dunia maya. Meskipun kita sudah memasuki era pasca pandemi, pengguna internet terus mengalami peningkatan. Selain itu, sebagai salah satu kawasan yang paling dinamis dan memiliki tingkat penetrasi internet yang tinggi, Asia Tenggara cenderung rawan terhadap kekerasan digital berbasis gender. Penelitian ini berfokus pada sejauh mana ASEAN sebagai organisasi regional menangani kekerasan digital berbasis gender. Pendekatan gender dan keamanan siber digunakan sebagai kerangka konseptual untuk menjelaskan peran dan tantangan ASEAN dlam melawan OGBV selama dan setelah pandemi COVID-19. Hasil penelitian ini menekankan pada sejauh mana COVID-19 membentuk interaksi manusia dan akhirnya membentuk kecemasan di arena siber. Pendekatan gender membentuk kontekstualisasi prasangka gender dan ketimpangan relasi kuasa dalam lingkungan yang patriarki di tengah keamanan siber yang lebih banyak dicap berdasarkan maskulinitas. Sehingga, kolaborasi antara negara, organisasi internasional antarpemerintah, dan pemangku kepentingan domestik dibutuhkan untuk menghapuskan OGBV, hingga mempromosikan kesetaraan gender dalam kerangka hukum ASEAN untuk menetapkan ruang virtual yang lebih aman bagi masyarakat Asia Tenggara.

Abstract

Australia and Indonesia have a turbulent relationship. One of Australia's foreign policies towards Indonesia is assistance in efforts to strengthen Indonesia's food security through the Australia-Indonesia Partnership for Promoting Rural Incomes through Support for Markets in Agriculture (AIP-PRISMA) program. This is indeed unique, considering that Australia usually supports food security globally or specifically to countries on the continent of Oceania and underdeveloped countries. This research is conducted to examine the factors that influenced Australia in implementing the program and the impact the program gives as an effort to strengthen Indonesia's food security. This research uses a qualitative approach; explanatory, case study, and descriptive methods; and narrative and illustrative analytical techniques. The data used is collected through literature studies and online searches. The research employs Constructivism theory, with the concept of identity and action, the logic of appropriateness, national interest, and foreign policy. This research focuses on the elaboration of Australia's identity and its foreign policy orientation towards a country it considers important, such as Indonesia. The results of the research show that the implementation of the AIP-PRISMA program is driven by Australian identity and national interests. The AIP-PRISMA program itself has succeeded in strengthening Indonesia's food security, especially in Eastern Indonesia. Subsequently, the implementation of the program in turn helped Australia achieve its national interests.Bahasa Indonesia Abstract: Australia dan Indonesia memiliki hubungan yang dipenuhi dengan gejolak. Salah satu kebijakan luar negeri Australia terhadap Indonesia adalah bantuan dalam upaya penguatan ketahanan pangan Indonesia melalui program Australia-Indonesia Partnership for Promoting Rural Incomes through Support for Markets in Agriculture (AIP-PRISMA). Hal ini tergolong unik, mengingat Australia biasanya mendukung ketahanan pangan secara global atau secara khusus ke negara di Benua Oceania dan negara-negara terbelakang. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk menelaah faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi Australia dalam menjalankan program tersebut dan dampak penerapan program terhadap upaya penguatan ketahanan pangan Indonesia. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif; metode eksplanasi, studi kasus, dan deskriptif; serta teknik analisis naratif dan ilustratif. Data yang digunakan dikumpulkan melalui studi kepustakaan dan penelusuran daring. Kemudian, teori yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah teori Konstruktivisme dengan konsep identitas dan aksi, logic of appropriateness, kepentingan nasional, dan kebijakan luar negeri. Penelitian ini berfokus pada penjabaran terhadap identitas Australia serta orientasi kebijakan luar negerinya terhadap negara yang dianggapnya penting seperti Indonesia. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penerapan program AIP-PRISMA didorong oleh faktor identitas dan kepentingan nasional Australia. Program AIP-PRISMA sendiri berhasil memperkuat ketahanan pangan Indonesia, khususnya di Indonesia Timur. Penerapan program tersebut pada akhirnya membantu Australia dalam mencapai kepentingan nasionalnya.

Abstract

To equalize the distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine, South Africa, and India as representatives of the Global South submitted the proposal to the World Trade Organization. This paper through the lens of neoclassical realism aims to discuss the factors that influenced the change in German stance, which initially did not agree with IP waivers, face about to support the existence of the IP waiver policy. Neoclassical realism along with concepts such as national interests, international behavior, non-traditional security, and balance of power is used in the analysis. This research used a qualitative approach, and a descriptive method is applied, the data collection technique that the authors use is secondary data sources, and the data analysis technique that the authors use is narrative analysis. Pressure from the green parties, and NGOs and the spreading of this infectious disease have forced Germany to finally support the Intellectual Property (IP) waiver and to be implemented immediately. In addition, other external factors namely international organizations, non-governmental organizations, encouragement from other countries, and cooperation between countries play a role in the reversal of the decision. From the results of the discussion that the author has described, national interests contribute to the formation of Germany's foreign policy.Bahasa Indonesia Abstract: Untuk menyeimbangkan distribusi vaksin COVID-19, Afrika Selatan dan India sebagai perwakilan Selatan-Selatan mengumpulkan proposal kepada World Trade Organization. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk membahas faktor yang memengaruhi perubahan sikap dari Jerman, yang awalnya tidak setuju dengan kebijakan IP Waiver menjadi mendukung keberadaan kebijakan IP Waiver, dengan menggunakan kacamata Realisme Neo-Klasikal. Perspektif Realisme Neo-Klasikal ditambah serangkaian konsep seperti kepentingan nasional, perilaku internasional, keamanan non-tradisional, dan kesetaraan kekuasaan digunakan dalam analisis ini. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dan metode deskriptif. Selain itu, penelitian ini menggunakan sumber data sekunder sebagai teknik pengumpulan data dan analisis naratif sebagai teknik analisis data. Tekanan dari partai hijau dan NGOs serta penyebaran penyakit menular yang berbahaya ini memaksa Jerman untuk akhirnya mendukung kebijakan IP Waiver dan dapat diimplementasikan segera. Hal ini juga ditambah dengan faktor eksternal lainnya seperti organisasi internasional, organisasi non-pemerintah, dukungan dari negara lainnya, dan kerja sama antarnegara yang turut memengaruhi perubahan keputusan tersebut. Hasil dari penelitian ini menjelaskan bahwa kepentingan nasional berkontribusi terhadap kebijakan luar negeri Jerman.

Abstract

This paper examines Indonesia's participation dynamics since ratifying the ASEAN Agreement on Transboundary Haze Pollution (AATHP) and its contributions to environmental diplomacy. It delineates two main areas: bureaucratic/technical diplomacy and political leadership diplomacy. At the bureaucratic level, Indonesia has engaged significantly in international forums, notably by elevating the haze pollution issue in the ASEAN Ministerial Meetings on Environment and collaborating with Singapore on technological solutions. However, at the political leadership level, Indonesia's focus on international performance, as evidenced by the new Capital city Nusantara project, has hindered the effective implementation of AATHP principles domestically. Recommendations for AATHP and Indonesia's future contributions include expanding the role of Non-Governmental Interests (NGIs) to enhance treaty legitimacy, balancing scientific and political enforcement, and promoting media involvement for public awareness and scrutiny. By adopting these recommendations, Indonesia and ASEAN nations can effectively mitigate transboundary haze pollution in Southeast Asia.

Abstract

In recent years, Indonesia has been striving to vertically integrate its nickel industry. The primary reasons for this are technological advancements, the global momentum towards sustainability, and abundant nickel mineral resources. With 52% of the world's nickel reserves, Indonesia has undertaken the downstream policy of its nickel industry. Various policies have been created and implemented, including laws, government regulations, and ministerial regulations, to guide the downstream process. However, the European Union's lawsuit against Indonesia at the WTO has posed a significant challenge to this process. After being found guilty, Indonesia has appealed the EU's lawsuit. This research aims to identify the current state of the downstream process and the underlying interests behind Indonesia's ongoing appeal. Using qualitative research methods and focusing on explaining the downstream of the national nickel industry, this study seeks to uncover and elucidate the main agenda behind the urgency of Indonesia's nickel industry downstream amid the WTO dispute and global momentum in electronic vehicle era. Bahasa Indonesia Abstract: Dalam beberapa tahun terakhir, Indonesia telah berupaya keras untuk mengintegrasikan industri nikel mereka secara vertikal. Alasan utama dibalik hal ini adalah kemajuan teknologi yang semakin pesat, momentum global yang semakin mengarah ke berkelanjutan, dan sumber daya mineral nikel yang berlimpah. Dengan memiliki 52% dari cadangan nikel dunia, Indonesia telah menjalankan hilirisasi dalam industri nikel mereka. Berbagai kebijakan telah dibentuk dan diimplementasikan untuk menuntun proses hilirisasi, termasuk aturan hukum, aturan pemerintah, dan regulasi tingkat menteri. Namun, tuntutan hukum Uni Eropa melawan Indonesia di WTO telah memberikan ancaman signifikan terhadap proses ini. Setelah divonis bersalah, Indonesia telah mengajukan banding terhadap tuntutan hukum Uni Eropa tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi situasi terkini dari proses hilirisasi dan kepentingan tersembunyi di balik banding Indonesia yang sedang berjalan. Dengan menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dan berfokus pada menjelaskan hilirisasi dari industri nikel nasional, penelitian ini mencoba mengungkapkan dan menjelaskan agenda utama di balik urgensi hilirisasi industri nikel Indonesia yang berkaitan dengan sengketa WTO dan momentum global di era kendaraan listrik.

Abstract

This journal article aims to analyze how the woke agenda enters the arena of economy and brings fundamental changes to the concept of social justice, and then further analyze the impact. The term woke, which developed in the community of the United States, symbolizes the awareness of social issues and the movement against injustice, inequality, and stereotypes. Other various terms used by the followers of this term, including diversity, equality, and inclusivity. In its development, the term also used in the pejorative fashion, in which someone is implying false, shallow, and politically driven morality. The woke capitalism itself can be defined as a corporate activism that plays the progressive tricks in front of the society while at the same time keep gaining huge benefits from the capitalism economic policy. The research method is the literature study, and the data and information acquired from written sources and analyzed qualitatively. The author finds that in the short time, corporate activism from the woke agendas may provide positive impact towards the image of the corporate and the products for the younger generation. However, in the long term it is going to be extremely difficult to make peace between the interest of identity politics with the logic and the mechanism of the market. It looks like the woke capitalism has a horrible future because the law of market logic has been proven to be sustainable during the entire history of humanity.Bahasa Indonesia Abstract: Artikel jurnal ini hendak mengkaji bagaimana agenda woke masuk ke dalam arena ekonomi dan membawa perubahan mendasar pada konsep keadilan sosial lalu menganalisis dampaknya. Istilah woke yang berkembang dalam masyarakat Amerika Serikat melambangkan kesadaran akan isu-isu sosial dan gerakan melawan ketidakadilan, ketidaksetaraan, dan prasangka. Adapun terminologi yang khas dan jamak digunakan oleh para penganut pemikiran ini yakni keberagaman, kesetaraan, dan inklusi. Dalam perkembangannya, istilah ini digunakan pula dalam konteks makna peyoratif, yakni sesorang yang menjalankan moralitas yang keliru, dangkal dan berdasarkan pada kebenaran politis. Fenomena woke capitalism sendiri dimaknai sebagai sebagai aktivisme korporat yang memainkan trik tampil progresif di hadapan masyarakat sembari tetap memperoleh keuntungan besar dari kebijakan ekonomi kapitalis. Metode penelitian ini adalah dengan menggunakan studi literatur, data dan informasi yang diperoleh dari sumber-sumber tertulis diolah secara kualitatif. Penulis menemukan bahwa dalam jangka pendek, aktivisme perusahaan dalam agenda-agenda woke mungkin memberi dampak positif pada meningkatnya citra dari perusahaan dan produknya di kalangan generasi muda. Namun, dalam jangka panjang, sangat sulit untuk mendamaikan kepentingan politik identitas dengan mekanisme dan logika pasar. Woke capitalism nampak memiliki masa depan yang suram karena hukum logika pasar sudah terbukti langgeng sepanjang sejarah peradaban manusia.

Abstract

Providing sustainable energy has become a global priority in the face of increasingly alarming climate change. Renewable energy is a key solution to minimize environmental impact, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and decrease reliance on fossil fuels that accelerate climate change. Indonesia, with its significant potential for renewable energy, has adopted strategies and policies supporting the development of renewable energy, emphasizing the role of environmental diplomacy in achieving these goals. Indonesia's position in regional and global geopolitics also influences the applied renewable energy policies. This study employs qualitative research methods and secondary data collection to gather information from literature sources, government reports, scientific journals, and news articles. This method allows researchers to analyze historical data, policies, and practices related to renewable energy in Indonesia, providing a comprehensive overview of Indonesia's diplomatic strategies for adopting and promoting renewable energy. The research will be analyzed from a neoliberal institutionalism perspective, emphasizing the importance of international institutions in achieving goals. Indonesia seeks international partnerships to develop and invest in renewable energy projects. This reflects a neoliberal institutionalist approach to energy sector development, with an emphasis on cooperation among states, technology transfer, and access to global financial resources. Through the neoliberal institutionalism framework, Indonesia's environmental diplomacy strategy in renewable energy development reflects the government's efforts to achieve balanced economic, environmental, and foreign policy goals. This research aims to delve into Indonesia's environmental diplomacy contributions to successfully implementing and promoting its renewable energy policies, anchored on neoliberal principles in addressing climate change.

Abstract

The climate change crisis triggered by the greenhouse gases emission because of the usage of coal have pushed for the establishment of UNFCCC dan the COP26 meeting, where Indonesia is actively participating. This research aims to analyze the implications of the COP26 results towards the environmental policy in Indonesia, along with the opportunities and challenges faced by the mining sector in implementing those policies. Using the neoliberal theory, qualitative approach, and case study method through secondary data analysis, this research produces two main findings. First, the COP26 results are integrated into Indonesia’s environmental policy through the roadmap towards net zero emission, constructed with the International Energy Agency (IEA). This roadmap includes the early retirement plan of coal power plants, the development of renewable energy, the super grid technology, CCS/CCUS, and the conversion of electronic vehicle. Second, even though there are some significant opportunities to achieve that commitment, Indonesia also faces huge challenges, including the coal dependency, regulation that is not optimal yet, and concerns towards improper fundings.Bahasa Indonesia Abstract: Krisis perubahan iklim yang dipicu oleh emisi gas rumah kaca akibat penggunaan batu bara telah mendorong terbentuknya UNFCCC dan pertemuan COP26, di mana Indonesia turut berperan aktif. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis implikasi hasil COP26 terhadap kebijakan lingkungan di Indonesia, serta tantangan dan peluang yang dihadapi sektor pertambangan dalam mengimplementasikan kebijakan tersebut. Menggunakan teori neoliberalisme, pendekatan kualitatif, dan metode studi kasus melalui analisis data sekunder, penelitian ini menghasilkan dua temuan utama. Pertama, hasil COP26 diintegrasikan ke dalam kebijakan lingkungan Indonesia melalui peta jalan menuju net zero emission, yang disusun bersama International Energy Agency (IEA). Peta jalan ini mencakup rencana pensiun dini PLTU batu bara, pengembangan energi terbarukan, teknologi super grid, CCS/CCUS, dan konversi kendaraan listrik. Kedua, meskipun ada peluang signifikan untuk merealisasikan komitmen tersebut, Indonesia juga menghadapi tantangan besar, termasuk ketergantungan pada batu bara, regulasi yang belum optimal, dan kekhawatiran terkait pendanaan yang belum memadai.

Abstract

McDonald’s was embroiled in controversy following the decision of its branch in Israel to donate the company’s food products to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), which has been accused of committing genocide on the people of Palestine. The company was boycotted by many worldwide, including the people of Indonesia which had always voiced their strong support for Palestine. The situation highlights a possible threat to McDonald’s as the independence of its individual national branches could result in clashing actions and negative public reception. Moreover, McDonald’s must be wary of the malleable governmental statuses and relationships in the countries it operates in, such as Indonesia, in which it originally opened during an extremely authoritarian regime before the country’s shift into a democratic system. However, the tides have been changing once again as recent political events have put Indonesia’s democracy under the threat of regression. With this newfound situation, McDonald’s must be able to find the proper solutions to address its emerging political and security risks.
Dualisme Kepentingan Joe Biden: Perhatian pada Sektor Lingkungan di Masa Kampanye & Hadirnya Willow Project 2023 setelah Terpilih [Joe Biden's Interest Dualism: Attention towards the Environment Sector in the Campaign Period and the Presence of Willow Project 2023 after Elected] Irawan, Kesya Permata Ariesta; Simanjuntak, Triesanto Romulo; Nau, Novriest Umbu Walangara

Abstract

This study aims to analyze President Joe Biden's dual interests regarding his focus on the environmental sector during his campaign and the decision to approve the Willow Project in2023 after being elected. Utilizing the concepts of national interest and public policy along with elite theory, this research highlights the discrepancy between Biden's pro-environment campaign promises and his policy decisions after taking office. A descriptive-analytical method is employed to identify and understand the reasons behind the approval of this controversial project. The findings reveal that the approval of the Willow Project was influenced by pressures from elite groups and the strategic necessity to balance broader national interests, despite conflicting with the environmental commitments made during the campaign. The conclusion of this study underscores the complexity of public policy decision-making, which often involves compromises between idealistic goals and political realities.Bahasa Indonesia Abstract: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis dualisme kepentingan Presiden Joe Biden mengenai fokusnya pada sektor lingkungan di masa kampanye dan keputusannya untuk menyetujui Willow Project di tahun 2023 setelah terpilih. Dengan menggunakan konsep kepentingan nasional dan kebijakan publik, bersama teori elit, penelitian ini menggarisbawahi ketidaksesuaian di antara janji kampanye Biden yang prolingkungan dengan keputusan-keputusannya setelah menjabat. Metode deskriptif-analitis digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi dan memahami alasan di balik persetujuan terhadap proyek yang kontroversial ini. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa persetujuan terhadap Willow Project dipengaruhi tekanan yang datang dari kelompok elit dan kebutuhan strategis untuk menyeimbangkan kepentingan nasional, terlepas dari komitmen-komitmen terhadap isu lingkungan yang disampaikan semasa kampanye. Kesimpulan penelitian ini menegaskan kompleksitas pembuatan kebijakan publik yang kadang mengkompromikan tujuan-tujuan ideal terhadap realitas politik.
