Abstract

The Papua conflict, marked by separatist claims and allegations of human rights violations, has positioned Indonesia under sustained international scrutiny. This study examines the diplomatic strategies employed by the Indonesian government to defend its sovereignty over Papua from 2020 to 2024, focusing on responses to global pressures and domestic legitimacy challenges. Grounded in neorealism and state sovereignty frameworks, the research adopts a qualitative descriptive approach to analyze Indonesia’s multi-level diplomacy involving state and non-state actors. Findings reveal a dual-track strategy: Government-to-Government (G2G) efforts prioritize bilateral engagements with influential states to counter separatist narratives, while People-to-People (P2P) initiatives focus on fostering Papuan trust in Indonesian nationalism through dialogue and grassroots empowerment. Key tactics include leveraging ASEAN partnerships to mitigate external criticism and deploying cultural diplomacy to reinforce national unity. However, challenges persist, such as balancing human rights accountability with sovereignty defense and addressing digital misinformation campaigns. This study underscores the necessity of integrating soft power and institutional legitimacy to fortify Indonesia’s diplomatic posture. Recommendations include enhancing multilateral collaboration, institutionalizing P2P programs, and adopting data-driven communication strategies to preempt disinformation. The findings offer actionable insights for policymakers to harmonize sovereignty preservation with inclusive governance in conflict-sensitive regions.

Abstract

Natural resource scarcity and its nexus with violent conflict in Post-New Order Indonesia (1998–present) present a critical challenge to the nation’s democratic transition. As Indonesia embraced democratization, newfound political freedoms coincided with escalating disputes over land, forests, and mineral resources, often erupting into violence. This study evaluates the applicability of Homer-Dixon’s environmental scarcity theory to Indonesia’s context, probing two core questions: What drives environmental scarcity in Indonesia? and Why do land distribution conflicts resist resolution? Employing a qualitative approach, the research analyzes secondary data from online media reports, government documents, and NGO publications, utilizing content analysis to identify patterns in resource disputes across regions like Kalimantan, Sumatra, and Papua. Findings reveal that environmental scarcity stems from three interlinked factors: (1) demand-induced scarcity due to population growth and extractive industries; (2) supply-induced scarcity from ecological degradation (e.g., deforestation, mining); and (3) structural scarcity perpetuated by inequitable land ownership and weak governance. Despite democratic reforms, institutional fragmentation and corruption hinder conflict resolution, exacerbating tensions between communities, corporations, and local governments. For instance, palm oil expansion in Kalimantan has displaced indigenous groups, triggering protracted violence despite legal frameworks like the 2013 Indigenous Rights Law. The study concludes that Homer-Dixon’s theory partially explains Indonesia’s conflicts but underestimates the role of political economy and decentralization dynamics. Recommendations include strengthening land tenure transparency, decentralizing resource management, and integrating traditional ecological knowledge into policy.

Abstract

The Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) was introduced in Nigeria to address election malpractices and enhance electoral integrity. This study evaluates the effectiveness of BVAS in safeguarding the 2023 general elections in Nigeria’s Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja, focusing on its role in reducing fraud and improving transparency. A quantitative research design was employed, utilizing online questionnaires to gather data from 385 respondents. Key findings reveal that BVAS significantly reduced voter impersonation and multiple voting, with 85.7% of respondents affirming its efficacy in curbing electoral fraud. However, challenges such as inadequate infrastructure, insufficient technical training for election officials, and low voter awareness hindered optimal performance. Binary logit regression analysis identified voter education, infrastructural development, and funding as critical determinants of BVAS success. While the majority of respondents acknowledged BVAS’s contribution to transparency and fraud reduction, persistent technical and systemic barriers underscore the need for further refinements. The study concludes that BVAS holds promise for improving electoral credibility, but its full potential requires comprehensive voter education programs, robust infrastructural investments, and enhanced public awareness campaigns. Recommendations include targeted training for election personnel, technological upgrades, and policy reforms to address existing gaps. These measures are essential to maximize BVAS’s impact and ensure sustainable electoral integrity in Nigeria.

Abstract

Digitalization and globalization are reshaping the global business landscape, presenting both challenges and opportunities for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (UMKM), which serve as economic pillars in developing countries. This study examines how UMKM adopt new technologies and adapt to the evolving global business environment, utilizing Innovation Diffusion Theory and Media Ecology Theory as analytical frameworks. A systematic literature review was conducted, synthesizing insights from academic publications, industry reports, and secondary data. Findings reveal that digitalization enhances UMKM competitiveness through global market access, operational efficiency, and product innovation. However, significant barriers persist, including the digital divide, low technological literacy, and inadequate infrastructure, which disproportionately affect rural and resource-constrained enterprises. The study underscores the necessity of multi-stakeholder collaboration to support UMKM transformation, with strategic recommendations focusing on enhancing digital literacy programs, investing in scalable technological infrastructure, and formulating inclusive policies. These measures are critical to ensuring UMKM sustainability and equitable participation in the global digital economy.

Abstract

Global warming, driven predominantly by greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels, presents a critical environmental challenge. The European Union (EU) has introduced frameworks such as the European Green Deal (EGD) to foster climate neutrality by 2050, with Denmark emerging as a frontrunner in renewable energy adoption. This study investigates how Denmark operationalizes the EGD’s objectives, focusing on renewable energy initiatives and their efficacy in mitigating climate impacts. Employing a qualitative methodology, the research analyzes policy documents, national strategies, and secondary literature to evaluate Denmark’s alignment with EU directives, including the Renewable Energy Directive (RED), and international commitments like the Paris Agreement. Key findings reveal Denmark’s significant progress in reducing emissions by 50% since 1990, primarily through large-scale investments in wind energy—contributing over 40% of national electricity—and solar power integration. Policy mechanisms such as feed-in tariffs, carbon taxation, and cross-sectoral partnerships have accelerated green technology adoption. Infrastructure innovations, including offshore wind farms and district heating systems, further underscore Denmark’s sustainable transition. However, challenges persist in decarbonizing agriculture and transportation, which account for 30% of emissions, necessitating enhanced electrification and behavioral shifts. The study concludes that Denmark’s success stems from robust policy coherence, public-private collaboration, and long-term regulatory stability, offering a replicable model for nations pursuing climate resilience. While Denmark’s achievements highlight the feasibility of EGD targets, scaling such strategies globally requires context-specific adaptations, particularly in developing economies. Future research should explore transferability barriers and sector-specific solutions to address residual emission hotspots.
