Abstract

Women's participation in the creative economy is a crucial aspect of achieving inclusive local development, particularly in coastal areas that have a high level of exposure to disaster risks. This study aims to analyze women's access to the creative economy sector and identify the opportunities and vulnerabilities they face in the context of disaster risks in the coastal village of Taman Ayu. This research employs a qualitative approach with data collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis. The data were analyzed using the Gender-Sensitive Sustainable Livelihoods Framework, which integrates gender analysis with disaster vulnerability assessment. The findings reveal that women play a significant role in supporting household income and sustaining community livelihoods through creative economy activities; however, their participation remains constrained by limited access to capital, skill development, and institutional support. On the other hand, women's involvement in creative economy activities serves as an adaptive strategy that strengthens the social and economic resilience of coastal communities to disaster risks. Therefore, this study concludes that strengthening women's capacity and improving their access to economic resources through inclusive and gender-responsive programs are essential to promoting resilient and sustainable coastal village development.   Keywords: Women’s Participation; Creative Economy; Gender; Coastal Community; Disaster Risk

Abstract

Doctoral students across disciplines frequently encounter methodological difficulties that can delay progress, affect research quality, and contribute to attrition; however, empirical, cross-disciplinary studies that explain why these challenges occur and how they are shaped by institutional contexts remain limited. This study explores the methodological challenges doctoral candidates face across four disciplines: Business Administration (DBA), Computer Science (DCS), Science (DSc), and Arts (DA), and examines how disciplinary norms, supervisory practices, and institutional structures shape these experiences. Using an explanatory multi-case study approach, nine doctoral candidates were purposefully selected to represent diverse disciplinary and institutional backgrounds. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews and analysis of key research documents and were examined thematically to identify recurring patterns and contextual influences. The findings reveal both discipline-specific challenges, such as differing assumptions about knowledge and research design, and cross-cutting issues, including misaligned supervision, constraints on ethical approval, emotional strain, and limited institutional support. By comparing cases across disciplines, the study highlights how contextual factors contribute to these difficulties and, in some instances, help mitigate them. Based on these insights, the study offers practical recommendations, including clearer alignment of supervisory roles, earlier and more structured methodological and ethical training, and increased access to interdisciplinary research support. Overall, this research contributes empirical evidence to the doctoral education literature and underscores the need for systemic improvements to enhance doctoral students’ research experiences and outcomes.

Abstract

The defeat of ISIS has left many Indonesian citizens who were once members of the radical group trapped in conflict zones. However, this study argues that refusing repatriation will not completely eliminate security risks, as deportation loopholes will directly force Indonesia to accept returning Indonesian citizens without going through strict procedures. This study will use a qualitative descriptive approach and case study analysis to examine in depth Indonesia's decision to refuse repatriation and the security loophole from the policy. The case studies of Rullie Zeke and Ulfa, Indonesian citizens affiliated with ISIS, are used as examples of the limitations of deportation in preventing cross border radicalization and terrorism. Deportation makes countries vulnerable because they have to accept highly risky individuals without being able to refuse them, which ultimately weakens their longterm risk mitigation capacity. There is a potential for new, unseen threats if the policy of refusing repatriation continues to be implemented without other adaptive policies. Keywords: Deportation; Repatriation Policy; National Security.

Abstract

This qualitative study aims to compare the discursive arrangements constructed by three Indonesian online media outlets with different ownership structures in their coverage of President Prabowo Subianto’s statement that villagers do not use U.S. dollars, delivered on May 16, 2026, amid the weakening of the Indonesian rupiah, which fell to Rp17,500 per U.S. dollar. The study applies Teun A. van Dijk’s critical discourse analysis across three dimensions text, social cognition, and social context to six news articles published between May 17 and 19, 2026, for which the full texts were accessible and could be verified. The findings show that all three media outlets incorporated both supportive and critical voices; therefore, their differences do not lie in the presence or absence of criticism, but rather in how discourse was arranged. Detik.com distributed the discourse across separate actor-based articles, employing intra-textual balancing through subheadings. Tempo.co concentrated the discourse within a single evaluative text, using a question-form headline and an argumentative structure that initially conceded before presenting a counterargument. Suara.com progressively accumulated technical evidence through a chain of narrative subheadings before placing official clarification in the closing position. This study proposes discursive arrangement as an analytical concept encompassing actor distribution, information sequencing, the positioning of balancing voices, and textual closure strategies, as an alternative to a simple pro-and-contra dichotomy. The findings are limited to the specific case examined and are not intended to constitute a quantitative comparison across media outlets. Keywords: Critical Discourse Analysis; Discursive Construction; Online Media; Discursive Arrangement; van Dijk.

Abstract

Governance requires diverse institutions with varying backgrounds to act in concert as representatives of the state. However, in the Indonesian context, joint actions reach a high degree complexity due to deeply seated and overpowering informal institutions. These informal institutions can dictate bureaucratic behavior and shape public perception of the state’s overall governance. This study explores the connection between the influence of informal institutions and the complexity of joint actions. Utilizing data from secondary sources-including open-access journals and official online database-the study examines the relationships between sudden policy implementation by central authorities, the subsequent vacuum of authority, informal institutions, weak oversight, and the implementation of repressive policies by populist leaders. Ultimately, this research finds that the joint actions necessary for governance in Indonesia are heavily influenced by informality. These informal structures emerge when the rapid implementation of policies is not paired with the necessary technical knowledge. The resulting effect is poor bureaucratic performance, where corrective efforts, such as institutional oversight, are hindered by the same informality affecting other formal institutions. Consequently, this study concludes that sudden reforms are counterproductive and instead advocates for the gradual development of the technical expertise required to execute modern governance.
