Abstract

This study analyzes the strategic dimensions that influence the quality of risk-based supervision through a comprehensive examination of three interrelated domains: coordination and governance, human resources, and technology integration. The research employs a descriptive qualitative method supported by analytical visualization using a donut diagram to illustrate the proportional contributions of each domain to supervisory effectiveness. Findings reveal that coordination and governance play a dominant role in ensuring institutional coherence, accountability, and leadership alignment, while human resources emerge as the core determinant of adaptive and ethical audit performance. Technological integration functions as a transformative enabler that strengthens data-driven decision-making and operational transparency within the supervisory framework. The interaction among these three domains demonstrates that the success of risk-based supervision depends on systemic balance rather than isolated reforms. The study concludes that strengthening institutional coordination, investing in professional capacity, and advancing digital infrastructure are essential for building a sustainable, responsive, and accountable supervision system capable of addressing dynamic governance risks.

Abstract

This study examines the governance of community-based ecotourism (Community Based Tourism/CBT) integrated with local wisdom in Pasenan Village, Musi Rawas Regency. Ecotourism is viewed not only as a tourism activity but also as a means of environmental conservation and community welfare improvement. Findings from observations, interviews, and FGDs indicate that the success of tourism management is largely determined by the synergy between natural potential, community participation, and government support. Local wisdom in the form of knowledge, values, and traditions serves as an essential asset in maintaining the balance between economic utilization and environmental preservation. However, challenges such as limited infrastructure, weak management, and unequal distribution of benefits remain significant obstacles. Quantitative analysis using SmartPLS shows that the research instruments meet validity and reliability criteria, with most indicators having loading factors and AVE values above the standard thresholds. This confirms that ecotourism governance and local wisdom significantly influence the strengthening of CBT. Therefore, the development of ecotourism in Pasenan Village requires strategies that integrate sustainability, empowerment, conservation, and local wisdom to enhance community welfare while preserving cultural and environmental sustainability.

Abstract

This study analyzes the determinants of low voter political participation in the 2024 Elections in Gunung Sari Ilir Village by examining three major dimensions: internal psychological and perceptual factors, external socio-economic and environmental barriers, and institutional, administrative, and governance constraints. The research employs a qualitative descriptive approach supported by thematic analysis to identify patterns, interpret respondents' perceptions, and understand the interrelated structure of deterrent variables influencing electoral engagement. The findings indicate that low levels of political efficacy, distrust toward political actors, weak political awareness, and negative political perception interact with socio-economic insecurity, limited information access, mobility constraints, and environmental difficulties that collectively reduce the feasibility and interest of citizens to vote. Meanwhile, systemic issues such as inaccurate voter registry data, low trust in electoral management institutions, administrative complexity, governance failures, and perceived corruption further reinforce disengagement and weaken the legitimacy of electoral processes. These multidimensional conditions suggest that voter participation cannot be understood merely as a matter of individual voluntarism but is influenced by structural forces that require integrated reform strategies across psychological, socio-economic, and institutional domains to rebuild electoral participation capacity

Abstract

This study aims to formulate an inclusive and sustainable collaborative governance model for tourism development in the Mandalika Special Economic Zone (SEZ), Indonesia, by applying the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The research identifies five key strategic pillars—community involvement, stakeholder commitment, resource availability, capacity building, and regulatory support as the foundation for participatory governance. Drawing on relevant literature and empirical observations, the study positions community participation, particularly that of indigenous Sasak groups, as a central element in implementing community-based tourism (CBT). However, findings show that top-down policy frameworks and weak stakeholder coordination continue to marginalize local voices. The AHP method enables a structured prioritization of governance strategies, resulting in five key recommendations: (1) strengthening vocational tourism education; (2) establishing village-based multi-stakeholder forums for deliberative planning; (3) ensuring equitable infrastructure and resource access for local communities; (4) designing spatially just regulations that protect community land and cultural heritage; and (5) building an adaptive pentahelix network involving government, the private sector, academia, civil society, and media. These strategies reflect the pressing need to rebalance power asymmetries and institutionalize inclusive planning. The study contributes both a methodological framework for decision-making and a normative proposition for embedding equity and participation into tourism governance. The Mandalika case demonstrates that collaborative governance must go beyond rhetorical inclusion by transforming how decisions are made, how resources are distributed, and how local actors are empowered.

Abstract

This research aims to evaluate the impact of nickel smelter development on the social welfare of the Morowali community. Its urgency lies in the need to understand the social consequences of rapid industrialization, so that mitigation policies and community participation can be formulated more inclusively and sustainably. This research uses a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design and Social Impact Assessment (SIA) to explore the social impacts of nickel smelter development in Morowali. Data were obtained thru interviews, documentation, and observation, and analyzed using Nvivo 12 Plus to identify key themes and develop mitigation recommendations based on the findings. This study shows that while industrialization drives rapid economic growth, it also leads to social impacts, including limited access to basic facilities such as clean water, sanitation, housing, education, and healthcare. Other impacts are seen in public health due to air pollution, increasing social tensions between local workers and foreign labor, and low public participation and protection of vulnerable groups' rights. Overall, the smelter development has not fully considered the principles of sustainable development, as the main focus is still on economic growth without ensuring social welfare, justice, and the protection of community rights. Future policy recommendations include strengthening collaboration between local governments, companies, and communities to improve access to basic facilities, healthcare services, education, and the protection of citizens' rights. Additionally, the sustainable and transparent implementation of the Social Impact Assessment mechanism needs to be carried out so that industrial growth aligns with social welfare and sustainable development.

Abstract

The city of Surabaya is one of the regions in East Java Province that is rich in tourism potential. From natural attractions to heritage sites, this region has it all. One of them is Peneleh Heritage Tourism Village. Development efforts continue to be directed at developing tourist attractions, increasing promotional activities, and increasing community participation. However, the government's efforts to continue developing Peneleh Heritage Tourism Village have not gone as expected due to low community participation in the tourism management community. Therefore, the community based tourism approach needs attention because this concept actively involves the community as part of the tourism management community. The purpose of this study is to realize community based tourism in the development of Peneleh Heritage Tourism Village in Surabaya. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with data collection techniques using observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of the study show that the implementation of community based tourism in the development of Peneleh Heritage Tourism Village has had a positive impact on the community, namely an increase in the pride of the tourism management group and the surrounding community in Peneleh to be able to participate in every tourist activity in Peneleh Village to support the sustainability of tourism village development, Even tough all member of the community ar not able to participate.

Abstract

This study examines how Yemen’s Presidential Leadership Council (PLC) employs governmental communication and media strategy to exercise authority in a conflict-affected, non-electoral governance context. Through a systematic qualitative analysis of official statements, media interviews, and diplomatic engagements conducted between April 2022 and December 2025, the study shows that the PLC relies fundamentally on communication as a performative mechanism of authority construction. In the absence of electoral mandates, the council continuously invokes procedural, performance-based, and normative legitimacy claims to justify its authority. However, this communicative authority remains inherently fragile. It is undermined by structural fragmentation that produces contradictory messaging and uneven circulation across a highly fragmented media landscape comprising more than 200 faction-aligned outlets, as well as predominantly crisis-driven, reactive communication patterns. The findings demonstrate that coordination failures stem not from technical or strategic deficiencies, but from the political structure itself. When authority is dispersed among multiple power centers backed by competing external patrons, unified communication becomes structurally impossible as a sustained and routinized practice. Under these conditions, crisis communication normalizes as the primary mode of governance, constraining the capacity of non-electoral authorities to project coherent legitimacy or articulate long-term governance visions.

Abstract

Increasingly complex urban mobility demands traffic supervision that is not only effective in the field but also supported by structured and integrated policy management. This study analyzes traffic supervision management at the policy level at the Batam City Transportation Agency, focusing on (1) the formulation of supervision and enforcement policies, (2) structural planning and decision-making, (3) governance of supervision implementation, including coordination, division of authority, and resource readiness; and (4) policy monitoring and evaluation. The study used a qualitative approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews with key traffic supervision actors at the Transportation Agency, observations of supervision activities, and reviews of policy and operational documents. Analysis was conducted thematically using an interactive model and triangulation of sources and techniques to increase the validity of the findings. The results show that the supervision policy framework tends to be responsive to daily issues but is not fully data-driven or systematic in its evaluation; this impacts variations in implementation, limited resource synchronization, inconsistent cross-agency coordination mechanisms, and monitoring and evaluation feedback. This study recommends strengthening oversight governance by standardizing risk-based SOPs, integrating data and performance indicators, institutionalizing coordination, and developing a sustainable monitoring and evaluation system to promote order, safety, and traffic efficiency in Batam City.

Abstract

Blockchain has increasingly been discussed as a strategic technology for strengthening e-government, particularly in the development of secure digital identity systems. However, existing studies tend to emphasize technical benefits such as transparency, security, efficiency, and decentralization, while paying less attention to the institutional conditions that shape blockchain adoption in the public sector. This study aims to map the development of blockchain research in e-government and to interpret its implications for secure digital identity governance through the lens of Historical Institutionalism. The data were retrieved from on 20 June 2025 using keywords related to blockchain, e-government, public sector services, and digital identity. A total of 1,709 documents published between 2000 and 2025 were analyzed. Data collection was conducted through a structured bibliometric search strategy, followed by data cleaning, duplicate removal, and keyword standardization. The data were analyzed using VOSviewer to examine publication trends, keyword co-occurrence networks, thematic clusters, and the relationship among dominant research topics. The findings show a significant increase in publications after 2017, indicating the growing academic and policy attention to blockchain-based digital governance. The dominant themes are related to public services, government, health services, adoption challenges, regulation, cost, and data security. These findings suggest that blockchain adoption in e-government is not merely a technical issue, but also an institutional process shaped by regulatory readiness, administrative legacies, interoperability constraints, and public sector capacity. The theoretical contribution of this study lies in integrating bibliometric analysis with Historical Institutionalism, particularly the concepts of path dependence, critical juncture, institutional layering, and policy feedback. This study contributes to a more critical understanding of blockchain-based digital identity governance and offers implications for policymakers seeking to design secure, adaptive, and institutionally feasible digital public services.

Abstract

The phenomenon of ethical violations by election organizers in post-reform Indonesia has intensified, extending to regional and city-level election organizers. From 2012 to 2024, the Election Organizer Honorary Council (DKPP RI) recorded 5,670 complaints of ethical violations against the General Elections Commission (KPU) and the Elections Supervisory Agency (Bawaslu). This high rate of ethical violations has created a decline in modern substantive democracy. Ethical violations by election organizers post-reform are not simply individual deviations, but rather the result of structural vulnerabilities created by institutional design, power configurations, and electoral political incentives. A case study from 2025 revealed that the DKPP RI imposed a strict sanction of dismissal on a member of the Bogor City KPU after being found guilty of using his authority for transactional gain, seeking the favor of one of the Bogor mayoral candidates. This study explains that ethical violations by election organizers are the result of a structural configuration between institutional design, electoral political incentives, and oligarchic pressure. The method used is descriptive analysis, a research method that focuses on current and ongoing solutions by collecting and compiling data, which is then analyzed to find answers. This research seeks to contribute to strengthening the electoral system and democracy in Indonesia by using a historical institutional approach to interpreting ethical violations of election officials in Indonesia. Therefore, this research seeks to examine the recruitment process of election officials in Indonesia after the reform era and analyze the phenomenon of structural and recurrent ethical violations.
