Abstract

Cultural tourism is seen as effective in introducing cultural heritage and as a source of foreign exchange, but it also creates a dualism of meaning that can threaten cultural destruction. For this reason, appropriate policies are needed to optimize opportunities and anticipate threats. This research aims to find principles for optimizing cultural tourism policies related to developing issues, taking Indonesia as a case. The research method is bibliometric analysis and content analysis applied to scientific articles and official documents published by the government related to the development of cultural tourism. The variables observed are trends in the number of tourist destinations, visitors, foreign exchange earnings from the tourism industry, government policies, and emerging issues. The results indicate that cultural tourism development in Indonesia is characterized by a persistent dualism, where economic gains are accompanied by risks of cultural commodification and degradation. The findings show that existing policies demonstrate moderate responsiveness to tourism growth and emerging issues, but remain limited in ensuring equitable benefit distribution, controlling land-use change, and strengthening community empowerment. Furthermore, the study identifies that policy optimization is most effectively achieved through a holistic and collaborative governance approach that enables adaptive responses to the dualism inherent in cultural tourism development.

Abstract

The increasing frequency and severity of disasters worldwide have underscored the critical role of local governments (LGs), which are the political authority closest to local communities and are rooted at the local level where disasters occur. While many studies have conducted systematic literature reviews on disaster risk management (DRM), there is a lack of systematic reviews on the role of LGs across the entire DRM value chain in the Global South, despite the region's high disaster susceptibility. This study is the first systematic review of peer-reviewed literature on LGs’ role in DRM, aiming to synthesise findings and inform future research and policies. The systematic review of 32 peer-reviewed articles across three databases was guided by the 2020 Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Analysis of articles was conducted using Atlas.ti, yielding 199 codes, which were grouped into six themes. The study reveals that while LGs in the Global South have made progress in establishing DRM units, significant challenges, including a lack of political will, reactive disaster responses, insufficient resources, and limited capacity building, persist. The findings indicate a bias towards pre-disaster measures, particularly disaster preparedness and community awareness, while other stages of the DRM value chain receive relatively less attention. The study calls on local-level policymakers to prioritize DRM by integrating it into LG programs and ensuring adequate resources and funding for all stages of the DRM value chain. Community resilience can be strengthened by moving beyond basic disaster awareness to community-led initiatives that empower local communities.

Abstract

Frequent floods and landslides in Tulungrejo Village, Batu City, require locally grounded mitigation strategies that are adaptive to the village’s ecological and social conditions. This study aims to analyze the role of local wisdom in the disaster mitigation system in Tulungrejo Village, Batu City, by emphasizing the integration of traditional knowledge, social systems, and village institutional support. The research method used is qualitative-descriptive through field observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation studies. The results show that local wisdom-based mitigation practices are operationalized through terracing techniques, small retention basins, and adaptive land management, which function as preventive mechanisms embedded in daily agricultural activities. In addition to ecological practices, the community’s social system serves as an effective medium for risk communication, enabling rapid information exchange and collective response through informal networks and village deliberation forums. Village government support, particularly through pre-disaster budget allocation, facilitation of community forums, and integration of local knowledge into planning processes, strengthens the institutionalization of mitigation practices. The interaction between ecological knowledge, social communication, and institutional support forms a collaborative and adaptive mitigation system. However, challenges remain in the regeneration and documentation of local knowledge, which may affect the long-term sustainability of community-based mitigation.

Abstract

This study develops an integrative framework for embedding Big Data, Internet of Things (IoT), and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) into the implementation of Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA), with the aim of enhancing urban environmental governance in Indonesia. While SEA has been widely adopted as a policy instrument for sustainable development, its effectiveness remains constrained by limited data integration, delayed monitoring processes, and weak institutional coordination. This research addresses these limitations by proposing a data-driven approach that aligns digital technologies with environmental assessment practices. Methodologically, the study employs a qualitative research design combining document analysis, systematic literature review, and policy framework evaluation. Empirical insights are further enriched through stakeholder-oriented analysis of technology applications in urban environmental management. The findings demonstrate that the integration of Big Data, IoT, and GIS enables real-time environmental monitoring, improves predictive capacity, and supports evidence-based policymaking. Moreover, these technologies facilitate enhanced transparency and multi-stakeholder engagement, thereby strengthening the governance dimension of SEA. However, the study also identifies critical barriers to implementation, including bureaucratic inertia, limited technical capacity, fragmented data systems, and insufficient political commitment. These constraints highlight the need for institutional reform and capacity development alongside technological adoption. This research contributes to the literature by advancing a novel conceptual and operational framework that bridges the gap between digital innovation and environmental governance. It extends existing SEA models by incorporating data-driven governance principles and provides actionable insights for policymakers and urban planners. The study emphasizes that effective integration of digital technologies in SEA requires not only technological readiness but also robust data governance, inter-agency collaboration, and adaptive policy frameworks.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the authority of local government and policies regarding adultery and their implications on the risk of sexual violence by reflecting on the sexual behavior of students in Malang. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study design. The technique for determining subjects uses purposive sampling. Data analysis uses thematic analysis through open coding, axial coding, and pattern coding. The result demonstrates that the Malang City government, through its autonomy function, in its efforts to take action on cases of sexual behavior in Malang City, carries out preventive and repressive measures. This includes the enforcement of regional regulations regarding night entertainment venues, prostitution, and the RPJMD. The jurisdictional boundaries between the campus and local government are often contested, resulting in a lack of synergy in creating public security and order. This is driven by environmental factors and economic needs, with no role for the wider community in prevention efforts, thus contradicting the recognition of legal accommodations that exist in society. The role of the government or relevant stakeholders is necessary in fulfilling aspects of cultural protection, economic fulfillment, and preventive measures through the social environment, so that the focus is not solely on the victims.

Abstract

This study examines civil servants’ readiness to adopt the SRIKANDI digital archival system within the Surakarta City government as part of broader efforts toward digital bureaucratic transformation in local government administration. The research applies the Technology Readiness Index (TRI) framework to analyze how psychological factors influence users’ intention to utilize the system. TRI conceptualizes technological readiness through four dimensions: optimism, innovativeness, discomfort, and insecurity. A quantitative approach was employed using purposive sampling, involving 105 civil servants responsible for archival management across local government organizations, technical units, and district offices in Surakarta City. The data were analyzed using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that optimism and innovativeness significantly increase civil servants’ intention to use the SRIKANDI system, while discomfort and insecurity negatively influence adoption. Among these factors, insecurity demonstrates the strongest influence, suggesting that trust and perceived technological risks play a critical role in shaping digital system adoption within bureaucratic environments. These findings highlight that the successful implementation of digital archival systems in local government institutions is not solely determined by technological infrastructure but also by the psychological readiness of civil servants and the organizational context in which they operate. From a policy perspective, local governments need to complement technological innovation with capacity-building programs, user support mechanisms, and trust-building strategies to ensure the effective adoption of digital governance systems. This study contributes to the literature on e-government and digital bureaucracy by providing empirical evidence on how technological readiness shapes digital transformation within local government organizations.

Abstract

This study investigates the digitalization of police services through the Polri Super App at the Parepare Police Department, focusing on efficiency, accessibility barriers, accountability and transparency, and institutional challenges. The research aims to analyze how digital policing contributes to more efficient and accountable service delivery while also identifying the limitations constraining its implementation. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis. They were processed using NVivo software to generate thematic coding, word frequency visualization, and a matrix coding query. The findings reveal that the application significantly improved efficiency by reducing waiting times and streamlining administrative processes. It also enhanced accountability through digital trails that minimized manipulation and unofficial payments. However, the study highlights persistent barriers, particularly for older citizens with limited digital literacy, as well as institutional challenges such as inadequate staff training and frequent system downtime. From a theoretical standpoint, the results confirm the relevance of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). At the same time, the New Public Service (NPS) framework emphasizes the importance of accountability and inclusivity in digital reforms.
