Abstract

This essay will consider a number of perspectives to determine whether the relationship between China and United States is strategic partnersor strategic competitors. During the Obama administration, the policy toward China oscillates between being strategic partners and strategic competitors since the first time he became President in January 2009 until the present time.  In this essay, I will argue that the relationship between China and the United States should be based on partnership rather than competition considering the strategic position of both countries in the world recently, especially in terms of economic cooperation. However, there is still a sense of competition between them, especially in military sectors. Sometimes, the relationship between them in this sector often brings the tense to their relationship. Keywords: Obama administration, policy, strategic partners, strategic competitors, relationship.

Abstract

States, however, are still the main actors in International Relations. Although the Cold War had formally ended in 1991, as a matter of fact, the military competition still exists, including at the regional level. This article attempts to analyze the arms dynamic in Southeast Asia during the 2010-2015 periods. By using three models – action-reaction model, the domestic structure model, and the technological imperative – simultaneously and analyzing the data published by both the IISS and SIPRI, this study shows that conflict in the South China Sea had been the primary motive of several countries in increasing their military spending and enhancing their military capabilities, both qualities as well as quantities. Several countries accelerating their military strength had been Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, the Philippines, Myanmar, Thailand, and Indonesia. However, Singapore had been the leading actor that has significant efforts in strengthening its military power. Relizing the difficulty to identify the actual motives of these several countries enlarging their hard power, the author argues that, within this arms dynamic, there is also a possibility or even the long-term tendency in terms of arms race as long as these major actors that relates directly to the South China Sea territorial conflict are not able carefully to maintain their security dilemma and perceived threats.  Kata Kunci: Arms dynamic, Southeast Asia, military capability

Abstract

Many people believe a distinct feature of markets is the self-assurance. International system, if not the major, particularly accept this pattern. Communication action obviously plays important role in shaping this pattern. For political leaders who primarily concern with economic growth, the operations in market are used as information to the expanding capital and secure civil industry across national boundaries. Nuclear materials and nuclear weapons are also used to the protection as well as to ensure economies continue growing. The Asian youth leaders can set their own agendas to create substantial change in this area. The process is currently moving. Religious nationalism of the youth is part of this process. However a meaningful change can lose itself unless a significant numbers of the youth give priority to human and humanity objectives. With human intelligence as the major tool the youth can make a difference to the world.  To ensure this the primary units should have capabilities to instinctively understand greatest resources for human wisdom based on multiculturalism and inclusiveness. It can begin from creating security culture among the youth based on its potential historically and locally then share the values to communities in their environment.

Abstract

Ditinjau dari aspek sejarah, perempuan telah lama menjadi topik pembicaraan dalam kompetisi gender dan rasis, korban sekaligus objektifikasi yang eksotik. Sering dianggap sebagai “penjaga warisan,” perempuan sekaligus menjadi simbol tidak adanya perubahan dalam budaya itu sendiri- statis dan tidak berkembang, serta tidak terbuka pada perubahan. Patologi yang salah mengenai perempuan semakin melekatkan perempuan jauh dari “rasa aman”. Cap korban dilekatkan pada perempuan yang identik dengan cerita-cerita pemaksaan dan pemerkosaan yang menjadi simbol penekanan dan frustrasi kaum perempuan. Sejarah Bosnia-Herzegovina adalah satu satu bahasan dalam kajian politik gender. Hak-hak kaum perempuan terus menerus dipolitisasi, dalam konflik yang berkepanjangan. Upaya pencitraan terhadap perempuan telah dibuat dalam beberapa tahapan kritikal . Masing-masing periode membawa persepsi sesuai dengan pemikiran-pemikiran yang ada pada saat itu. Dan setiap periode pelabelan citra ini, khususnya yang terkait dengan hak-hak kaum perempuan, kerap menemui resistansi dari pihak-pihak tertentu. Citra perempuan, khususnya selama periode perang 1992-1995 di Bosnia, Herzegovina, dan negara-negara tetangga, merefleksikan politik etnonasional dan kepentingan ideologi pada masa itu yang berujung pada hilangnya rasa aman bagi kaum perempuannya.

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the response of Indonesia in an effort to counterbalance the development of military power in Southeast Asia during the 1998-2010 periods. This response is placed on the dimensions of the development policy of Indonesia's defense posture. The author uses a case study design. Through analysis of various documents, books, journals, and other sources as well as interviews with several experts in the field of defense and military, the author argues that Indonesia's defense posture development policy (land, sea, and air) in response to the military development in the countries of the Southeast Asia region during 1998-2010 period was intended to achieve more deterrent power than building an offensive force. The policy was made in light of the perception that the countries in Southeast Asia had the potential to threaten the security and sovereignty of Indonesia. Meanwhile, Indonesia's ability to build up military strength in the upper levels was very limited deterrent. Limited sources of funding and political support as well as weaknesses in analyzing the strategic environment of the region led to the development of the policy could not achieve the level of deterrent and also have not gotten to the point'strategic stability'. Indonesia was plagued by the problems of arms embargo by foreign countries and still has problems in the institutionalization of research and development.
