Abstract

Indonesia’s contemporary political landscape is deeply shaped by the pivotal role of political parties in the formulation of public policy. As the ruling party with one of the largest grassroots constituencies, the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDI-Perjuangan) holds a decisive influence in legislative decision-making. Katz and Peter Mair. These three faces include: the party in public office, the party on the ground, and the party central office. The research employs a qualitative method with a case study approach, based on interviews with party representatives as well as an analysis of documents, news sources, and academic literature. The research was conducted at the PDIP Branch Leadership Councils located in Depok, Tangerang, and East Jakarta. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with key informants and supported by relevant documentation analysis. The findings reveal a clear discrepancy between PDI-Perjuangan’s ideological commitment to public welfare and its parliamentary faction’s support for the Job Creation Law. This contradiction has sparked disappointment among labour groups and party sympathizers. By analyzing the party's three faces, this study uncovers internal tensions which are legislative elites prioritize political pragmatism, the central office struggles to balance control and coherence, while grassroots cadres resist policies seen as betraying party ideals. The study demonstrates that PDI-Perjuangan’s political decisions are shaped by government pressure, economic interests, and internal fragmentation. Ultimately, the research highlights the ongoing dilemma between upholding party idealism and pursuing strategic political compromise in Indonesia’s legislative process.

Abstract

This study analyzes the change of the Saudi Pro League (SPL) from 2021 to 2024, assessing whether these initiatives represent sportswashing or authentic nation branding. Since 2021, Saudi Arabia has allocated billions into the acquisition of international football talents and the enhancement of facilities, notwithstanding global condemnation of its human rights record. This research utilizes Anholt's nation branding hexagon framework and adopts a qualitative case study technique with comparative aspects, incorporating official documents, public opinion surveys, media content analysis, and tourism statistics. Findings indicate a multifaceted "strategic sports diplomacy" approach that surpasses the simplistic sportswashing/branding dichotomy, yielding disproportionate outcomes across several objectives. Despite SPL's notable commercial success, including airing in over 130 countries, generating over $300 million in annual revenue, and attracting an additional 310,000 tourists, enhancements in reputation within Western markets were limited, especially among viewers emphasizing human rights issues. The study demonstrates a "Western perception paradox," wherein substantial visibility gains did not result in enhanced favorability, while demographic analysis indicates markedly more positive perceptions among younger viewers, active fans, and non-Western demographics. This study enhances the theoretical comprehension of sports diplomacy by illustrating how audience segmentation influences effectiveness across demographic, geographic, and cultural dimensions, thereby contesting simplistic assessments of sports-based nation branding and offering frameworks for analyzing the multifaceted outcomes of modern sports diplomacy.

Abstract

Over the past decade, carbon taxation has emerged as a central instrument in global emission reduction efforts. Yet in many developing countries of the Global South, its implementation has fallen short of the urgency posed by the climate crisis. A significant gap in the literature remains: how industrial resistance and domestic power configurations shape the design and enactment of carbon tax policies. This study examines the dynamics of industrial resistance to carbon taxation in four Global South countries—India, South Africa, Mexico, and South Korea—by highlighting the strategic alliances forged between the state and carbon-intensive industries. This study adopts a qualitative approach, employing a comparative research design to analyze policy documents, statistical data from the World Bank, IEA, and Carbon Pricing Dashboard, along with relevant academic literature. Findings indicate that in all four cases, the state tends not to act as a transformative agent, but rather as a facilitator of fiscal and political compromises with industrial actors. The resulting policies are largely symbolic—characterized by low tax rates, broad exemptions, and the absence of escalation strategies. Framed through the lens of strategic state–capital alliances, this study argues that state–market relations in the Global South cannot be understood purely in technocratic terms, but must be seen as configurations of power that shape the trajectory of energy transitions. These findings offer important theoretical implications for climate policy research and the political economy of development.

Abstract

President Bashir’s military government has secured him to sit in the power for more than three decades since 1989. His strategy has allowed him to survive during many protest cycles. However, the 2018-19 protest has proved a different thing. In less than four months, the participation of Sudanese civil has successfully overthrown him from the power. What remains is that how this democratisation has succeeded and why? Who is behind the mobilisation of Sudanese civil power and how they mobilise people? This paper analyses the role of Sudanese Professional Association (SPA) in the process of Bashir’s fall during December 2018 and April 2019. Using Putnam’s social capital theory and descriptive qualitative analysis methods, this study suggests that the movement of SPA has succeeded in mobilising opposition parties, forcing Bashir’s security apparatus to announce the ending of his power. , confirming the trust as Putnam’s social capital suggested. Moreover, the Force of Freedom and Change (FFC) Alliance was also formed by the initiative of SPA, utilising their networking to mobilize people against Bashir.

Abstract

This study aims to objectively describe human rights violations experienced by the Aboriginal people in Australia and to analyze the role and efforts of the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) in fulfilling their rights. The analysis in this study uses Galtung peace theory, focusing on OHCHR policies. These policies are then categorized and analyzed based on Galtung three stages of peace: peacebuilding, peacekeeping, and peacemaking. In addition, the concept of positive peace Galtung and Fischer is used to assess the outcomes of OHCHR’s implemented policies. This study uses a qualitative method through a literature study based on secondary data, including books, scholarly journals, reports, and other relevant sources, which are analyzed using data reduction techniques. The findings show that OHCHR has made various efforts to monitor and investigate human rights violations against the Aboriginal people. OHCHR acts based on policy principles to fulfill the rights of the Aboriginal community and to create conditions conducive to humanitarian assistance. One example is through the management of contribution funds from various countries via the UN Voluntary Fund for Indigenous Peoples, where OHCHR serves as the fund's secretariat and supports the implementation of the Expert Mechanism on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (EMRIP). Although violations still occur, OHCHR is considered to have been fairly successful in carrying out its mandate as a UN body in addressing indigenous rights issues and in supporting the realization of positive peace through its various policies.

Abstract

In many developing democracies, constitutional courts (Mahkamah Konstitusi: MK) have evolved beyond their traditional role as guardians of legality to become active agents in shaping the design of democratic institutions. Indonesia's Constitutional Court is increasingly exercising this transformative capacity, particularly through its interventions in the regional election system. In Indonesia, the MK is increasingly exercising this transformative capacity, particularly through its intervention in the regional election system. This article investigates how the 2024 MK ruling (Decision No. 60/PUU-XXII/2024), which removed the electoral threshold for regional head candidacy, has recalibrated the interaction between political parties and state institutions in Indonesian democracy. Using a framework of political jurisprudence combined with concepts from institutional change theory, this study places the MK's decision within a broader debate on judicial activism, party system adaptation, and constitutional politics in electoral design. This analysis suggests that the MK’s intervention not only liberalized the selection of local candidates but also reshaped coalition incentives, as interpreted through an analysis of judicial reasoning and post-decision party strategies. By conceptualizing constitutional adjudication as a mode of redesigning democracy, this study advances a nuanced understanding of how judicial institutions in democracies act as de facto architects of political reform. It contributes theoretically to comparative discussions on judicial power and institutional evolution, and empirically to studies on the ongoing consolidation of democracy in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines the development in Australia-China diplomatic relations, which changed dramatically during Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s term (2018-2022). Previously, the two countries had appeared to be very harmonious and bound by complementary economic relations through the Australia-China Free Trade Agreement in 2015. When Scott Morrison was successfully inaugurated as Prime Minister, Australia dared to shifts its foreign policy towards China in a confrontational and anti-China direction. Australia's confrontational and anti-China foreign policy is evaluated through three offensive decisions, including the prohibition investment and trade links with China, the restriction Chinese foreign students in Australia, and Australia's attacks on China at the multilateral level. Therefore, this study tries to analyze the elements driving changes in Australia's foreign policy towards China. This study aims to fill the analytical gap left by prior studies, focusing on domestic political considerations as a significant variable in driving changes in Australia's foreign policy towards China. This study takes a qualitative approach, with descriptive and comparative analysis methodologies used in the data processing process. By referring to and using Type III Neoclassical Realism Theory, this study found that the domestic factors influencing these changes were: 1) Scott Morrison’s policy perception and leadership outlook; 2) Australia’s strategic culture as a lens of policy imagination; 3) Australian public opinion and its constraining effect on policy choices; and 4) the Liberal-National Coalition party’s ideology and its role in shaping policy decisions.

Abstract

This study examines digital public diplomacy narratives of Indonesian Embassy abroad through a case study of the Instagram account @IndonesiainDC, managed by the Embassy of Indonesia in Washington, D.C, the United States of America (U.S.). Using a descriptive qualitative approach with content analysis, the research analyzes posts published between 19 September 2025 and 31 December 2025, a period marked by the appointment of Ambassador Dwisuryo Indroyono Soesilo after a two?year vacancy. The study applies Cull's (2009) taxonomy of public diplomacy (listening, advocacy, cultural diplomacy, exchange diplomacy, and international broadcasting) to assess how the Embassy projects Indonesia’s identity, communicates policy priorities, and engages with foreign publics. Findings reveal that @IndonesiainDC actively employs all five functions of Cull’s taxonomy. Listening is reflected in diaspora engagement and informal community events; advocacy appears in posts promoting Indonesia’s positions on critical minerals, palm oil sustainability, and gender equality; cultural diplomacy is evident in language programs, performing arts, gastrodiplomacy, and museum collaborations; exchange diplomacy emerges through symbolic gestures such as university visits and structured initiatives like Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative (YSEALI) and free Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian language) courses; and international broadcasting is demonstrated in Ambassadorial announcements, Embassy closures, and diplomatic milestones. Beyond Cull’s framework, this account also engages in hybrid practices such as webinars for Indonesian producers, knowledge diplomacy through academic collaboration, and ceremonial protocol functions, highlighting the evolving nature of digital diplomacy. This case contributes to the broader understanding of soft power and digital diplomacy in the field of International Relations, showing how Embassy adapts traditional functions to contemporary digital narratives.

Abstract

What constitutes the social foundation of environmental politics in the Global South? Existing scholarship advances two influential accounts. One, derived largely from research in advanced industrial democracies, characterizes environmental concern as a post-materialist phenomenon concentrated among affluent and highly educated middle classes. The other, grounded in case studies from developing contexts, emphasizes precarious movements among economically vulnerable communities. Whether these frameworks adequately capture environmental dynamics in middle-income societies, however, remains an open question. This article examines the case of Bali, Indonesia, a province that has experienced intensifying environmental pressures alongside growing public engagement with ecological issues. Drawing on an original representative survey of 1,893 respondents across nine districts (multistage random sampling; margin of error 2.8 per cent at 95 per cent confidence), the study analyses the distribution of pro-environmental behavior across socio-economic and educational strata. The findings indicate that pro-environmental behavior in Bali is not confined to either affluent, highly educated constituencies or economically marginal groups. Rather, environmentally aligned practices are observable across social strata. While differences in degree remain, the overall pattern suggests a more socially dispersed foundation than either the post-materialist or the environmentalism of the poor framework would predict. The article contributes to comparative debates by inviting a reconsideration of the North–South binary as an organizing framework for the study of environmental politics.

Abstract

Tourism expansion has increasingly become a dominant development strategy in many coastal and island regions of Indonesia. While tourism-led development is often associated with economic growth and infrastructure improvement, recent studies highlight its socio-ecological consequences, particularly the emergence of resource conflicts and uneven distribution of benefits. However, existing studies largely focus on vertical conflicts between local communities, investors, and the state, while limited attention has been given to the ways tourism development can generate horizontal conflicts among local communities themselves. This article addresses this gap by examining the ownership dispute over Nyuh Kukuh Port in Nusa Penida, Bali. This research employs a qualitative case study approach to investigate how tourism-driven economic transformation reshapes local resource relations and triggers inter-community conflict. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and document analysis involving community members, local leaders, and relevant stakeholders. The findings show that the rapid growth of tourism since the early 2010s has transformed coastal livelihoods from seaweed farming and fisheries toward tourism-related services. The increasing economic value of port infrastructure generated new forms of competition over access and control of coastal resources. Unequal distribution of financial contributions from tourism transportation operators intensified tensions between Ped Village and Kampung Toya Pakeh Village, leading to competing claims over port ownership. The dispute further evolved through identity mobilization and local elite contestation. This study contributes to political ecology scholarship by demonstrating how tourism development can reconfigure local power relations and transform environmental resource disputes into horizontal conflicts mediated by identity politics.
