Abstract

The presence of Indonesian Workers (TKI) abroad, especially in the Middle East Region, is between the devil and the deep sea. Apart from reducing the government's responsibility to improve the economy by providing job opportunities, their presence also adds to the country's foreign exchange. However, on the other hand, the presence of TKI also adds to the problems caused by the lack of adequate legal protection, inadequate security and welfare guarantees, as well as the ups and downs of Indonesia's bilateral relations with the countries where they work as a result of the problems caused by the TKI themselves. Several policies related to sending migrant workers to the Middle East have been adopted since the time of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono. However, a firm policy was only taken during the administration of President Joko Widodo with the issuance of Minister of Manpower Decree number 260 of 2015 which stopped and prohibited the placement of Indonesian workers with individual users in Middle Eastern countries. This policy can also be seen as a policy that is outside the norm considering that the Middle East is the most popular region for migrant workers. This research attempts to explain how the ups and downs of the TKI issue are seen from a security perspective using a constructivist approach. This process, which the Copenhagen School calls securitization, attempts to place threats and objects that must be secured as products of the process of social interaction. This research will also look at how securitization occurs which is then followed by desecuritization and in its development becomes resecuritization.

Abstract

The Free Aceh Movement (GAM) is a group that demands that the central government be part of a democracy. The group moved freely and radically with the aim of separating itself from the rest of Indonesia. The focus of this paper is on analyzing GAM's transformation into the Aceh Party, which is different from other radical movements in Indonesia. The purpose of this research is to understand the transformation through Laclau and Mouffe's ideas on radical hegemony and democracy. Radical democracy is a form of struggle in achieving autonomous authority on the basis of equality and equality. The author will use qualitative methods with literature study data collection techniques to strengthen problem analysis. The research results show that GAM is considered radical as it is in line with Laclau and Mouffe's ideas. They form a group to demand certain interests so as to create a state of antagonism and hegemony struggle. The formation of the Aceh Party is inseparable from a long journey to fight for the demands of the community and as a form of building political power in accordance with the environmental conditions of society in Aceh. Currently, the Aceh Party no longer implements radical democracy as it used to do with GAM.

Abstract

The issue of human security in the digital era has garnered attention in line with technological advancements. The threats to individual privacy and security have become increasingly evident, particularly following the hacking incident by Bjorka in September 2022 in Indonesia. This research applies the concept of human security within the context of digital security, highlighting the inequalities in access and vulnerabilities in online privacy. The Bjorka case reflects the complexity of human security, encompassing freedom from fear, freedom from want, and the freedom to live in dignity concerning the fundamental rights of individuals in human security. The aim of this study is to understand the privacy breaches and data hacking conducted by Bjorka and its impact on the human security of Indonesian citizens, especially from the perspective of digital security. This case study research employs interviews with key respondents from diverse backgrounds, who may have been victims of Bjorka's hacking. The study finds that digital security is not only related to technical aspects but also involves disrupted human security issues, pertaining to basic human rights, access limitations, and the gender identity of individuals involved in the digital world.

Abstract

This comprehensive study examines the strategies employed by the Independent Election Commission (IEC) to boost the participation of novice voters in the pre-election phase leading up to the 2024 General Election in West Aceh District. Novice voters aged 17 to 21 play a significant role in measuring electoral efficacy and vitality. Recognized by political stakeholders, their engagement affects the electoral landscape due to their diverse characteristics and challenges compared to previous generations, such as lack of interest, awareness, knowledge, and apathy. So, this research was carried out to analyze the strategies used by the IEC towards novice voters. This study adopts David's (2004) strategy theory in strategic management, which includes formulation, implementation, and evaluation. Conducted in West Aceh Regency, this study examines the initiatives and challenges of the IEC in engaging novice voters. Through careful empirical data analysis, this study aims to improve the electoral process and consolidate democracy in Indonesia. The research findings reveal insights into the effectiveness of the IEC's strategies and highlight areas for improvement. This study provides valuable insights for future election planning, encouraging more equitable and inclusive practices. However, several problems in its implementation need to be resolved, mainly the need for more human resources and budget.

Abstract

China's foreign policy towards Afghanistan in the 2014-2023 period has changed in a more proactive direction. Moreover, when the Taliban succeeded in taking power in Afghanistan, China decided to maintain its concession with the country that had replaced the regime that has shown a significant change in its foreign policy towards Afghanistan, after previously freezing diplomatic relations with the country when the Taliban's first occupation occurred in the 1996-2001 period. Therefore, this research is held to determine the reasons for China's foreign policy changes towards Afghanistan from 2014 to 2023, in terms of political-economic analysis. The theory used is foreign policy, using the Goldmann model and the Holsti model approach to identify changes in China's foreign policy towards Afghanistan. The method used in this research is explanatory with data sources obtained through interviews and literature study. In the data analysis stage, the authors sort out information that is relevant to the research topic, followed by the process of presenting data and drawing conclusions. The final results of this research show that Xi Jinping is the main actor behind changes in China's foreign policy towards Afghanistan since 2014. Securing China's economic interests in the development of Gwadar Port, a significant energy infrastructure project in BRI cooperation, became one of the main considerations for Xi Jinping to change China's foreign policy towards Afghanistan.

Abstract

This study explores the formation of actor networks in developing conservation areas, specifically focusing on the Benoa Bay conservation area in Bali from 2014 to 2019. This period marks the beginning and temporary cessation of reclamation development permits in the area, instigated by a Presidential Decree. The study examines how actor networks form through material negotiations, categorizing actors into pros (supporting reclamation) and cons (opposing reclamation). It employs the Actor Network Theory (ANT) framework, particularly the moments concept developed by Callon, to analyze these networks and negotiations. The research is qualitative, using case studies and field data collected through interviews with relevant stakeholders. The primary findings reveal that actors on both sides—pro and con—form networks based on the material narratives they promote. For the pros, the need for tourism space justifies reclamation, while the cons focus on conservation values upheld by the Balinese community. The reclamation issue acts as a moment of problematization, bringing these opposing material narratives into conflict within the conservation area. The study follows ANT’s stages from problematization to mobilization, highlighting how the conflicting material narratives of both pro and con actors interact and influence the network formation. Ultimately, the research illustrates the dynamics of actor networks in the context of reclamation, showing how material negotiations shape these networks and the contestation over spatial production in Benoa Bay networks.

Abstract

This research aims to explain the extent to which Indonesian political parties use social media to maintain their existence and relevance in the political arena. This study uses a qualitative method with a case study approach. The case studies are the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP), the Golkar Party, and the Gerindra Party. The findings of this study explain that political parties in Indonesia today must carry out organizational transformation to remain relevant and exist in the present and future.  This has begun to be done by political parties that utilize digital technology facilities, namely social media by creating accounts and posting professionally packaged content to attract the attention of netizens. PDIP, Golkar, and Gerindra, the top three parties in Indonesia, have actively utilized Instagram and TikTok social media for their party branding needs and to face the 2024 elections by promoting their candidates. In the context of the 2024 Presidential Election, the three political parties are dominant in creating content on Instagram and TikTok regarding the presidential and vice presidential candidates being promoted rather than the political parties themselves. This is an effort by political parties to utilize social media to garner more individual popularity, which leads to the interest in electoral contestation. Political parties that manage their social media professionally are directly proportional to their electoral presence in the community.
