Abstract

Abstract This study discusses the agricultural modernization strategy carried out by the Mahakam Ulu Regency Government in responding to the challenges of limited space, extreme geographical conditions, and food security in the 3T region. The focus of the study is directed at the development of dryland rice farming and the role of spatial planning policies as development instruments. The approach used is qualitative based on literature studies, with data sources coming from regional policy documents, official reports, and academic literature. The results of the study show that the Mahakam Ulu Government has implemented a number of strategic policies such as protecting agricultural land, providing planting cost assistance, providing agricultural tools and machinery, and building road and bridge infrastructure. All of these interventions are carried out to support accessibility, production efficiency, and the welfare of farmers in border areas. In conclusion, agricultural modernization in Mahakam Ulu is a form of spatial intervention that is not only technical, but also political, with state involvement in directing the use of space in a planned manner. This approach shows a local development model that is adaptive, contextual, and oriented towards sustainability and spatial justice. Keywords: Modernization, Agriculture, Spatial Planning, Dry Land Rice.

Abstract

Abstract Party leadership is an important aspect in showing the face of a political party to the public as voters. Several studies show that party leadership has a fairly strong influence in determining voting behavior (Liddle & Mujani, 2007). In the midst of the decentralization system in force in Indonesia, the presence of political parties at the regional level is thus a necessity, at least to reach voters at a more micro level. The touch between the community and the party at the regional level is certainly more intense compared to the party at the central level. The last four legislative elections in Bandung Regency (2004, 2009, 2014, and 2019), were always won by the Golkar party, until finally this dominance collapsed marked by the victory of the National Awakening Party (PKB) in the 2024 Bandung Regency legislative election. This victory occurred after the change in leadership of the National Awakening Party (PKB) at the regional level, in this case in Bandung Regency. Through the conceptual framework built by Stark (1996), related to the criteria for changing party leadership, this article aims to analyze in more depth how the change in leadership of the National Awakening Party of Bandung Regency can provide electoral incentives for the National Awakening Party's vote acquisition in the 2024 Bandung Regency legislative election. This article shows the factors of acceptance of party leaders by party members, electoral interest possessed by party leaders, and the competence of party leaders, which are supported by the factor of ownership of popular power as determinant factors that must be possessed by party leaders, as happened in the National Awakening Party (PKB) of Bandung Regency which succeeded in breaking the dominance of the Golkar Party in the 2024 Bandung Regency legislative election. Keywords: Change of Party Leadership, Popular Political Actors, PKB Abstrak Kepemimpinan partai menjadi aspek penting dalam menunjukkan wajah partai politik kepada publik sebagai pemilih. Beberapa studi menujukan kepemimpinan partai memiliki pengaruh cukup kuat dalam menentukan perilaku memilih (Liddle & Mujani, 2007). Di tengah sistem desentralisasi yang berlaku di Indonesia, kehadiran partai politik pada tingkatan daerah dengan begitu, menjadi suatu keharusan, paling tidak untuk menjangkau pemilih pada tingkatan yang lebih mikro. Sentuhan antara masyarakat dengan partai pada tingkatan daerah tentunya menjadi lebih intens dibandingkan dengan partai pada tingkatan pusat. Empat pemilu legislatif Kabupaten Bandung terakhir (2004, 2009, 2014, dan 2019), selalu dimenangkan oleh partai golongan karya (Golkar), sampai akhirnya dominasi tersebut runtuh ditandai dengan kemenangan partai kebangkitan bangsa (PKB) pada pemilu legislatif Kabupaten Bandung tahun 2024. Kemenangan tersebut terjadi pasca pergantian kepemimpinan partai kebangkitan bangsa (PKB) di tingkatan daerah, dalam hal ini di Kabupaten Bandung. Melalui kerangka konseptual yang dibangun oleh Stark (1996), terkait kriteria pergantian kepemimpinan partai, artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis lebih dalam bagaimana pergantian kepemimpinan partai kebangkitan bangsa Kabupaten Bandung dapat memberikan insentif elektoral terhadap raihan suara partai kebangkitan bangsa pada pemilu legislatif Kabupaten Bandung tahun 2024. Artikel ini menunjukkan faktor penerimaan pemimpin partai oleh anggota partai, ketertarikan elektoral yang dimiliki pemimpin partai, dan kompetensi pemimpin partai, yang ditopang oleh faktor kepemilikan kekuatan popular menjadi faktor determinan yang harus dimiliki oleh pemimpin partai, sebagaimana yang terjadi pada partai kebangkitan bangsa (PKB) Kabupaten Bandung yang berhasil mematahkan dominasi partai golkar pada pemilu legislatif Kabupaten Bandung tahun 2024.

Abstract

Abstract Conflict is an inevitable phenomenon within organizations, including public organizations that have complex bureaucratic structures and involve various interests. This study aims to analyze the forms of conflict that occur in public organizations, evaluate the role of Human Resource Management in handling conflicts, and identify effective conflict management strategies from a Human Resource Management perspective. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and document study. The results show that conflict management in public organizations is highly influenced by the effectiveness of the role of Human Resource Management. Through strategic approaches such as communication training, implementation of clear conflict resolution policies, and the strengthening of a collaborative organizational culture, Human Resource Management is able to minimize potential conflicts as well as resolve existing conflicts constructively. This study also finds that the most common forms of conflict are vertical conflict and role conflict, mainly due to mismatched perceptions, disproportionate workloads, and ineffective communication. Therefore, optimizing the role of Human Resource Management not only impacts conflict resolution but also enhances organizational performance and the quality of public services as a whole. Keywords: Conflict Management, Public Organization, Human Resource Management, Conflict Resolution Strategy.

Abstract

Abstract This study aims to analyze the use of soft power and hard power strategies in international politics carried out by major countries, and to understand how these two approaches complement or compete with each other in achieving national interests. Using descriptive qualitative methods, this study examines case studies in the United States and China over the last decade. The results of this study indicate that the hard power and soft power strategies implemented by the United States and China have a significant impact on the dynamics of international politics, both in the form of competition for global influence, regional stability, and changes in the world economic order. The United States tends to use its military superiority to ensure deterrence and enforce interests through economic sanctions, while its soft power derived from popular culture and democratic values remains a strong attraction in many countries. In contrast, China focuses on economic diplomacy through massive investment and strengthening trade relations that increase the dependence of its partners, accompanied by the modernization of its military as a guarantee of protecting strategic interests. The combination of the strategies of the two countries not only triggers competition in promoting development and governance models, but also creates a more complex international landscape, where narratives and public perceptions become new fields of competition besides the power of weapons and economy. Keywords: Soft Power, Hard Power, Smart Power, International Politics, United States, China
