Abstract

This study investigated whether Indonesian fundamentalist group utilizes marketing principles for recruitment. The research employed a Delphi method, gathering expert consensus from marketing, communication, and visual communication fields to assess the group's use of marketing strategies in attracting sympathizers and disseminating their ideology. The first round demonstrated complete agreement on the use of marketing principles. The second round revealed some disagreement regarding the classification of mosques as distribution channels, suggesting a nuanced application focusing more on promotion than traditional marketing models. The findings highlight sophisticated marketing techniques used by this group, emphasizing the need for further investigation into how such groups leverage marketing for influence. This includes exploring the broader application of marketing principles in radicalization, connections to popular culture, and developing effective counter-narratives using social marketing. Understanding these strategies is crucial for developing counter-measures and promoting social cohesion. The study's results underscore the importance of examining how religious groups employ marketing strategies, particularly in contexts lacking prior research.

Abstract

The paper examines the pivotal roles of the Dark Web and encrypted messaging apps in enabling online terrorist networks. These platforms have become essential tools for extremist groups, empowering them to communicate, coordinate, and share intelligence securely. The Dark Web, a hidden portion of the internet, provides a secure conduit for terrorist organizations to emerge, operate, and coordinate activities anonymously. This digital haven enables terrorists to share resources, plan operations, and execute attacks as part of their secret operations strategy. Encrypted messaging apps, such as Telegram and WhatsApp, offer an additional layer of security, allowing terrorists to send messages anonymously and evade detection. These apps create a veil of secrecy, making it challenging for counter-terrorism agents to identify and track extremist activities. The convergence of the Dark Web and encrypted messaging apps poses a significant threat to global security. The unification of these technologies enables terrorists to operate undetected, making it increasingly difficult for law enforcement agencies to counter their activities. The paper adopted social network theory as its theoretical underpinning. The paper was elicited through a secondary data-gathering technique. They revealed that the Dark Web and encrypted messaging apps have been essential to the function of online terrorist organizations and also used as a means of dissemination of propaganda, radicalization, fundraising, training, communication, coordination, share information, among others. The paper recommends amongst others, that Law enforcement operations should track down and bring to a halt the Dark Web marketplaces as well as encrypted messaging apps used by terrorists.

Abstract

India’s emergence as a net security provider in South Asia is a significant development, driven by its strategic interests and the region's shifting geopolitical landscape. This paper explores the challenges, opportunities, and broader geopolitical dynamics that shape India’s security policies and initiatives in South Asia. Through qualitative research and the lens of structural realism, the study assesses India's efforts to maintain regional stability, counter terrorism, and address security threats in its immediate neighborhood, including Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bhutan, and the Maldives. The analysis delves into the complexities posed by India’s traditional rivalries with Pakistan and China, highlighting how these relationships influence regional security management. Despite its growing military power in the Indian Ocean, India’s aspirations for regional leadership face hurdles. The study identifies key challenges, such as slow progress in developing deeper security ties with other Indian Ocean countries and the increasing expectation from regional actors for India to lead collaboratively. While India has the potential to assert itself as a major security provider, its reluctance to engage more proactively with key players in the region may hinder its influence. The study concludes by arguing that India must prioritize building stronger, cooperative security partnerships to solidify its leadership role in South Asia. By doing so, India can enhance regional stability and extend its strategic reach, ensuring a balance between its national security interests and its regional responsibilities.

Abstract

Hyundai Motor Group's investment in the electric vehicle (EV) industry in Indonesia reflects the convergence of green economy strategies between Indonesia and South Korea. The study aims to analyze the contribution of Hyundai investment in the development of the local EV ecosystem, including technology transfer, supporting infrastructure, and its impact on the bilateral relationship between the two countries. The research method used is a qualitative study with a case study approach. The results show that Hyundai Motor Group's investment supports Indonesia's green economy policy, despite challenges related to dependence on natural resources and infrastructure. This research contributes to academics and policymakers in understanding the role of foreign investment in the sustainable energy transition.

Abstract

Indonesia’s 2025 accession to BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) appears at odds with the country’s long-standing bebas-aktif (“free and active”) tradition of non-alignment. This article explains the move through a layered realist approach and a purely theoretical, deductive method. First, the study integrates structural, offensive, and neoclassical realism to clarify four key mechanisms external balancing, hedging, relative gains, and status-seeking. It then maps propositions about what BRICS can offer Indonesia and tests them against existing realist scholarship on middle powers and emerging-power clubs. Analysis shows that BRICS chiefly serves as an external-balancing instrument, reducing Jakarta’s reliance on Western-centric institutions. Although any state can purchase shares in the New Development Bank (NDB), full BRICS membership ensures larger voting power over lending policy, enhancing Indonesia’s leverage while still granting access to faster, less conditional finance. Intra-BRICS technology partnerships and China-led Belt and Road projects promise additional relative gains, reinforcing economic and strategic autonomy. At home, membership boosts symbolic status, validating elite ambitions and a developmental-nationalist narrative. Yet Jakarta’s engagement remains deliberately shallow: it taps BRICS where pay-offs are high and keeps exit options open to avoid over-dependence on any single great power. The findings confirm core realist expectations: middle powers exploit an increasingly diversified institutional landscape to hedge against post-unipolar uncertainty and to bargain for better terms. Influence in today’s system accrues to actors that supply flexible, mutually reinforcing institutional choices rather than rigid blocs.

Abstract

After the World War II, Japan has been adopting a pacifist Constitution and established the Japan Self-Defense Forces (JSDF) for narrow self-defense operations. The JSDF are restricted from having offensive military weapons. However, Japan’s pacifism and restrained security policy have been evolving recently, especially during the term of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe (2012-2020). The latest example is Japan’s plan to enable forward defense and counterstrike. This paper explores the transformation of Japan’s military through the revolution of military affairs (RMA) concept. The findings suggest evolutionary transformation of Japan’s military rather than revolutionary. The factors explored include international and domestic factors. The international factors include Japan’s threat perception and its desire to be more active participant to maintain international stability. The domestic factors include Japan’s constitutional limits, Abe’s reinterpretation of the constitutional limits, and remaining pacifism at the parliament.
