Abstract

Djaka Lodang Magazine, a Javanese-language print medium established in 1971, represents a rare case of cultural resilience amid the dominance of globalized digital media. While existing scholarship on media globalization predominantly emphasizes cultural homogenization, digital disruption, and the decline of local traditions, insufficient attention has been given to how regional-language print media strategically negotiate market pressures while actively sustaining cultural identity. Drawing on the political economy of media and medium theory, this study examines Djaka Lodang as an intrinsic case of local media resilience in preserving the Javanese language and cultural values within a digitized media ecosystem. Using a qualitative intrinsic case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and document analysis, and analyzed thematically to identify patterns in editorial practices, institutional strategies, and cultural narratives. The findings reveal that Djaka Lodang operates not merely as a cultural archive but as an institutionalized mechanism of cultural transmission, sustained through linguistic authenticity, value-driven editorial policies, and community-based networks that selectively engage with, rather than submit to, commercial media logic. This study advances the political economy of media by demonstrating that regional-language print media can function as strategic sites of cultural resistance within contemporary media capitalism. The novelty of this research lies in its theoretical reconceptualization of local print media not as passive victims of digital transformation, but as adaptive actors that reshape media-market relations through cultural capital and community embeddedness. These findings contribute to broader debates on media resilience, cultural sustainability, and the future of minority-language media in the digital era.

Abstract

This study examines English teachers’ perceptions of the effects of Differentiated Instruction (DI) on teaching quality in English language teaching at MTsN 2 Manggarai Barat, East Nusa Tenggara. This qualitative case study involved three English teachers selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings indicate that teachers generally hold positive perceptions of DI and consider it supportive of student-centered and inclusive learning practices aligned with the Merdeka Curriculum. However, differences were found in teachers’ understanding of DI, particularly in how instructional differentiation is conceptualized and applied in classroom practice. These findings suggest that while positive perceptions facilitate DI implementation, strengthened conceptual understanding is necessary to ensure consistent instructional quality. The study highlights the importance of targeted professional development to support effective Differentiated Instruction in English language teaching.

Abstract

This study explores the implementation of quality management in Sekolah Penggerak schools based on the pesantren (Islamic boarding school) system and its potential contribution to student learning outcomes at the secondary education level. Using a systematic literature review, the study synthesizes evidence from previous research to identify patterns in how quality management practices are applied within pesantren-based schools. Four key thematic areas emerged: transformational leadership of school principals, integration of pesantren values into the curriculum, ongoing monitoring and evaluation of educational processes, and teacher professional development programs. Transformational leadership was frequently associated with supportive and motivating school environments, while the integration of pesantren values emphasized moral, ethical, and spiritual formation alongside academic learning. Continuous quality management practices, including assessment and feedback mechanisms, were highlighted as common strategies for improving instructional quality. The review also identified challenges such as limited infrastructure, human resource constraints, and variability in stakeholder engagement. These findings suggest that adopting structured, value-informed quality management practices may support holistic student development and provide insights for blended religious-secular educational reforms. The study underscores the importance of collaborative approaches among educators, students, parents, and communities in sustaining quality improvement.

Abstract

Indonesia’s rapid growth in municipal solid waste generation has increased urgency for low-carbon waste management solutions. In response, the government has accelerated Waste-to-Energy development in 12 designated cities under Presidential Regulation No. 35/2018. This study applies a Systematic Literature Review following PRISMA 2020 guidelines to examine governance frameworks, environmental performance, and economic feasibility of Waste-to-Energy projects in Indonesia, with a comparative focus on the Benowo and Putri Cempo facilities. Literature was systematically retrieved from Scopus, ScienceDirect, SpringerLink, and Google Scholar using policy- and technology-related keywords. The search yielded 21 eligible publications between 2018–2025 that include empirical studies and policy-relevant documents. The results indicate that although both facilities operate under the same national regulatory framework, they differ in financing schemes, risk allocation, and operational efficiency. Benowo’s BOT model supported by tipping fees provides financial stability, whereas Putri Cempo’s DBFOT scheme requires higher operational efficiency due to the absence of municipal subsidies. Environmental assessments show that Benowo’s hybrid gasification and landfill gas system reduces greenhouse gas emissions by up to 57.1% from the pre-2015 level, while gasification at Putri Cempo achieves more than 85% waste reduction with lower emission intensity than conventional incineration. Economic feasibility is sensitive to waste quality, capacity utilization, and policy incentives. The novelty of this study lies in its integrated governance, environmental, and economic perspective linking national policy design with local implementation outcomes. The findings imply that stronger risk-sharing arrangements, improved waste segregation, and transparent environmental audits are essential to ensure sustainability of Waste-to-Energy development in Indonesia.

Abstract

This paper examines how leadership, organizational learning, and technology integration interact to foster innovation and adaptability within learning organizations in the context of digital transformation. While prior studies have largely examined these elements in isolation, there remains limited synthesis of how leadership, learning processes, and digital technologies jointly operate across organizational contexts. This review is novel in that it systematically integrates leadership styles, organizational learning processes, and digital transformation within a single analytical framework and classifies existing empirical studies according to direct, moderation, and mediation models. Using a systematic literature review guided by PRISMA, the study synthesises 23 peer-reviewed empirical articles published between 2015 and 2025 across education, healthcare, public, and private sector organizations. The findings show that leadership influences organizational learning and performance through both direct and indirect pathways, with effects shaped by contextual conditions such as organizational flexibility and sectoral characteristics. Mediation mechanisms, particularly employee productivity and knowledge sharing, are central in translating leadership practices and technology adoption into improved organizational outcomes. Moderation effects further indicate that leadership effectiveness varies according to organizational readiness and environmental complexity. The review highlights that context-sensitive leadership and strategically aligned digital learning initiatives are critical for sustainable organizational development. It concludes by recommending that future research and policy prioritize integrated and adaptive approaches to leadership development and digital learning, offering a coherent roadmap for scholars and practitioners seeking to build resilient and innovative learning organizations.

Abstract

This paper examines recent negotiations regarding the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. The conflict escalated into a full-scale war in 2022 following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Using qualitative descriptive study and document analysis using Faure’s deadlock framework, this research identifies several indicators which show the negotiation between Russia and Ukraine for resolving their conflict has reached a deadlocked situation. This research also found that several factors such as cognitive, structural, and behavioural factor is causing the deadlock within the negotiations. The findings suggest that these factors are creating a condition where no substantive result and repeated arguments happened, which is indicators that the negotiation has reached a deadlocked condition. These findings also give implications towards the negotiation dynamics between two party, suggesting several strategies needed to overcome the deadlock within the negotiations. This research contributes to the limited amount of discourse regarding the negotiation conditions that occurred between Russia and Ukraine for resolving their conflict, offering a new perspective by applying Faure’s indicators and factors such as Cognitive, Structural, and Behaviour towards this issue.

Abstract

This research examines the role of UN Women’s Transnational Advocacy Networks (TANs) in addressing gender-based violence (GBV) in Indonesia during the 2020–2024 period, focusing on the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence campaign. GBV remains a persistent concern within Indonesia’s policy landscape, and transnational advocacy has become increasingly influential in shaping national discourses. Drawing on the Transnational Advocacy Networks framework developed by Keck and Sikkink, this research analyzes advocacy strategies operating through information politics, symbolic politics, leverage politics, and accountability politics. By concentrating on a defined temporal scope and a single advocacy initiative, the study provides an empirically grounded examination of UN Women’s advocacy practices in Indonesia. The research employs a qualitative methodology based on document analysis of UN Women publications, campaign materials, legal instruments, and reports produced by national institutions and civil society organizations. The findings indicate that advocacy activities predominantly operate through information and symbolic politics by producing and disseminating gender-related data and aligning campaign narratives with international gender equality norms. Overall, this research demonstrates that UN Women’s transnational advocacy in Indonesia primarily contributes to norm diffusion and policy agenda-setting, while post-legislative accountability remains limited across institutional contexts and enforcement practices at national and local levels contexts.

Abstract

Introduction: Indonesian specialty coffee holds strong production capacity and geographical indication (GI) potential, yet remains underrepresented in global consumer markets. This condition reflects a structural gap in agrifood value chains, where smallholder farmers are positioned primarily as raw material suppliers rather than participants in downstream branding and value creation. This study examines how community-based branding can function as an upstream capacity-building approach to address this imbalance. The research investigates the question: How can participatory branding interventions enhance branding capacity among smallholder coffee farmers prior to market activation? Novelty: This paper introduces community-based branding as an intermediate capacity-building mechanism in agrifood contexts, rather than as a market-ready branding strategy. Unlike existing studies that focus on certification, price premiums, or downstream branding actors, this research integrates participatory action research with branding and GI discourse to foreground farmers’ branding literacy, narrative ownership, and collective agency—an area that remains insufficiently explored in current literature. Methods: The study employs a participatory action research (PAR) design involving smallholder coffee farming communities in Indonesia. Data were collected through pre- and post-intervention assessments, participatory observation, and facilitated branding workshops. An exploratory consumer awareness survey conducted in Sydney, Australia (n = 57) was used to provide contextual insight into downstream brand awareness. Results: The findings indicate observable improvements in farmers’ understanding of branding concepts, geographical indication, and collective brand ownership. The exploratory survey reveals limited consumer awareness of Indonesian coffee brands, underscoring the relevance of upstream branding capacity development. Conclusion: The study concludes that community-based branding can support early-stage branding capacity development among smallholder farmers, serving as a foundation for more equitable participation in branding processes. The main implication is that branding initiatives in agrifood systems should prioritize community-level capacity building alongside regulatory and market-oriented strategies.

Abstract

The rapid expansion of financial technology (fintech) has transformed digital financial services, particularly in the online lending sector. However, this growth has been accompanied by the proliferation of illegal online lending platforms operating outside formal regulatory frameworks. These platforms often engage in abusive practices, including excessive interest rates, coercive debt collection, misuse of personal data, intimidation, and other forms of cyber-enabled economic crime. This article examines the regulatory and criminal law frameworks governing fintech-related abuses in illegal online lending in Indonesia, focusing on their coherence and limitations. Using a normative juridical approach, the study analyzes statutory regulations, policy instruments, and legal doctrines related to fintech regulation, consumer protection, cybercrime, and criminal liability. The findings reveal that, despite the existence of multiple regulatory and penal mechanisms, the legal framework remains fragmented and institutionally dispersed. Key challenges include overlapping regulatory mandates, weak coordination among supervisory and law enforcement bodies such as the Financial Services Authority (OJK), the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology, and criminal justice institutions and the increasingly transnational nature of digital financial crimes. This article proposes normative recommendations to enhance regulatory coherence, particularly through integrated regulatory supervision. This approach emphasizes structured coordination among relevant authorities, clearer division of institutional responsibilities, shared enforcement mechanisms, and harmonized regulatory standards. By clarifying structural and doctrinal gaps, this study contributes to strengthening consumer protection and improving legal certainty within Indonesia’s fintech ecosystem.
