Abstract

The development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has brought significant impacts across various aspects of life, including security and defense. AI offers the ability to enhance operational effectiveness through automation and advanced data analysis. However, its application also presents risks, particularly conflicts involving civilian populations. This research aims to analyze the implications of AI in the field of security and defense on potential conflicts using a human security approach. This approach highlights three fundamental components of human security: freedom from fear, sustainable livelihoods, and the assurance of human rights. The research employs a qualitative method with data collection techniques through literature reviews. Analysis is conducted using the illustrative method. The research finds that the use of AI in autonomous weapons often results in unintended civilian casualties, triggering external conflicts. On the other hand, technologies like face recognition and surveillance capitalism create internal conflicts due to algorithmic discrimination and privacy violations. The findings indicate that AI, while offering operational benefits, can introduce new threats in the form of digital technology threats. Therefore, it is crucial to integrate human security principles into the development and implementation of AI to minimize the risks of conflict and ensure a more responsible application of technology.

Abstract

This article analyzes Indonesia's Global Maritime Fulcrum (GMF) strategy from 2014 to 2024, tracing its transformation from a domestic development initiative to a refined diplomatic tool for managing great power rivalry in the Indo-Pacific. This research utilizes a qualitative case study technique with process tracing to examine official documents, diplomatic exchanges, and quantitative measurements, framed by middle power theory and maritime strategy concepts. The findings indicate that Indonesia's GMF strategy evolved through three distinct phases, achieving significant milestones such as a 234% enhancement in maritime surveillance coverage, the establishment of 89 bilateral maritime cooperation agreements, and effective mediation in regional maritime disputes with an 83% success rate. These results markedly surpassed earlier academic forecasts, demonstrating Indonesia's adept utilization of its geographic advantages and diplomatic skills to establish regional leadership despite the limitations of its middle power status. Despite the GMF's effectiveness being constrained by intensifying great power rivalry and internal limitations, Indonesia has adeptly established itself as a crucial player in Indo-Pacific maritime governance through the integration of institutional development, diplomatic efforts, and operational collaboration, providing significant insights into middle power conduct in intricate regional security contexts.

Abstract

In an era of rapid digital innovation and the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), growing technological power imbalances have generated serious concerns about the equality, agency, and sovereignty of state and non-state actors. This study uses a qualitative, interpretivist methodology to examine the consequences of the digital divide. It focuses on how middle powers manage technological competition while maintaining strategic autonomy in the transformation of international relations. The findings indicate that while digital technology and AI enhance state capabilities and reshape global power hierarchies, they generate critical, ethical, and political challenges, particularly around surveillance, accountability, and algorithmic bias. This study argues that middle power can use defense diplomacy as a strategic instrument to confront the challenges of digital technology. Defense diplomacy employs comprehensive approaches, both coercive and non-coercive, and serves as an effective strategy for middle powers to influence global norms, develop cooperative security frameworks, and manage technological disruptions through building trust among actors. Ultimately, this study contributes to the interdisciplinary discourse on digital international relations by offering a framework for middle powers in an era increasingly shaped by algorithmic decision-making and cyber politics.

Abstract

The emergence of a new world order is raising its involvement in the relationship between Russia and the Islamic world, which is also of significant relevance for Indonesia given its position as a bridge to Russia’s broader pivot to the East. This research aims to analyze how Russia’s growing ties with Islamic nations impact global power structures and influence Indonesia’s foreign policy and strategic interests. Using Rosenau’s foreign policy theory that conceptualizes state behavior as an adaptive response to changes in the external environment in order to seek survival, this study implies a qualitative approach to define Russia’s geopolitical rationale. The analysis draws on primary and secondary sources including policy documents, official statements, scholarly articles, and interviews with representatives from the Russian Embassy in Indonesia and the Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The findings reveal that Russia’s growing engagement with the Islamic world forms part of broader strategy to counter Western domination and establish a multipolar world order through economic, military, and diplomatic initiatives. This has made Russia positioned itself as a central power broker across the Middle East, North Africa, and Asia. Therefore, as a prominent Muslim-majority nation and a key ASEAN member, Russia’s ongoing developments carry strategic implications for Indonesia. Russia’s expanding role offers opportunities for Indonesia that goes along with Indonesia’s “free and active” foreign policy but simultaneously generating challenges by increasing external pressure on Indonesia’s ability to maintain that posture. Consequently, Indonesia must actively navigate strategic and balanced foreign policy to enhance its diplomatic leverage, while maintaining regional stability and promote its national interest.

Abstract

This article examines why legal recognition of Indigenous land rights has expanded globally while material control over land and resources remains constrained. Drawing on a comparative analysis of Indonesia, the Philippines, and Aotearoa New Zealand, the study analyzes how international Indigenous rights norms—particularly UNDRIP and related international standards often associated with ILO Convention No. 169—are domesticated through distinct configurations of state authority, market integration, and legal pluralism. Using an interpretive comparative policy analysis of legal texts, policy documents, judicial decisions, and multilateral reports (2010–2024), the article shows that recognition reforms increasingly operate as instruments for regulating Indigenous territories within green developmental and market-oriented governance frameworks. While legal recognition expands formally, it simultaneously re-scales Indigenous authority into administrative and market-compatible forms. Conceptually, the article advances the notion of accumulation through recognition to capture a specific mechanism through which legal acknowledgment of Indigenous land rights enables new forms of assetization, investment eligibility, and ecological commodification without substantive redistribution of territorial sovereignty. This finding contributes to debates in agrarian political economy and critical international political economy by showing how rights-based reforms can become embedded within contemporary regimes of green capitalism.

Abstract

One of the important topics in international relations is international development cooperation, particularly good governance. Good governance has long been a crucial pillar of international development cooperation. However, there has been little discussion on the effectiveness of development cooperation in the area of good governance. This paper focuses on global achievements and Indonesia’s experiences in development cooperation, especially in good governance program. It argues that the most successful sector in the agenda of good governance globally is related to electoral assistance. Meanwhile, the decentralization, human rights and rule of law agendas have been shown to have positive, albeit limited, impacts. Here, Indonesia can be categorized not only as a recipient but also as a donor of aid. This allows Indonesia to play a role as a bridge between donor and recipient countries. This paper uses a qualitative methodology with a narrative approach and incorporates the concepts of international development cooperation, good governance and the role of new emerging donors.

Abstract

This article narrates the condition of global geopolitical turbulence stemming from a foreign policy event between the United States and China following President Donald Trump's tariff policy, which has created a new map in systemic relations. Whether it is in foreign policy interactions or the patterns of state alliances beyond the contestation of global power. This momentum coercively tests the strength of world nations, including Indonesia, in responding to global uncertainty. At the same time, this geopolitical turbulence creates a vacuum in leadership profiles on the global stage that provide solutions to the environmental crisis and also presents an imbalance in the availability of the Supply Chain with the energy transition. Indonesia actually has a structure within domestic entities that should strengthen the nexus of Indonesia's environmental diplomacy in facing that turbulent period. Especially by taking lessons from ancient Chinese history. This article finds that a state's strength amidst geopolitical turbulence to endure and increase its bargaining power does not always stem from material factors, but from perceptions that shape the state's identity. Therefore, this article is conceived using an interpretative qualitative design. Specifically, by using the thoughts of Katzenstein (holistically) and Wendt (systemically) in layers, without mixing the ontology of both within the realm of constructivist international relations thought. The theoretical and practical implication is that when environmental diplomacy and geopolitics are able to mutually reinforce and positively shape each other.

Abstract

The influence of China has weakened Taiwan's position in global diplomacy. China emphasizes that countries that establish diplomatic relations with Taiwan will lose relations with China. In response, Taiwan introduced the New Southbound Policy (NSP) as a hedging strategy to counteract diplomatic isolation through cooperation. This policy seeks to strengthen economic, cultural, and technological relations with countries in South and Southeast Asia, including Indonesia. Taiwan and Indonesia have enhanced trade relations through programs promoting people-to-people connectivity involving individuals and civil society networks. A key aspect of this cooperation is the employment of Indonesian migrant workers in Taiwan, which relates to the New Economics of Labor Migration. NELM is a theory that puts emphasis on the impact of migrant labor and remittances on the trade balance of a country. This paper will analyze the effect of the existence of Indonesian Migrant Workers on remittances and the trade balance of Taiwan in the ensuing NSP. Quantitative approach used by utilizing simple linear regression to sharpen the result based on the data that were identified using the official government websites, datasets, journal articles, and others. Results indicate that there are impacts caused by the existence of Indonesian workers on Taiwan’s trade balance by 55.5% and remittances 32.7%, respectively. Although other reasons, including Indonesian visitors, also contribute to the process. NSP was launched to balance geopolitical tensions and link trade, technology, education, labor, and cultural exchange.
