Abstract

The invasion of Ukraine by Russia marked a new turning point in the history of the 21st century and has had far-reaching effects for much of the globalized world. The intensity of such an unexpected and unprovoked war has made it crucial to seek out the reasons why Russia decided to wage war on Ukraine. As such, there is a need to look for a deeper origin of the conflict, especially the unique circumstances that led to such policy being pursued. A comprehensive and theoretical approach that connects all the dots into one chronological picture is required. To that end, this research attempts to analyze the war in Ukraine and explore the root causes of why Russia decided to invade, primarily through its internal perspective and the intervening variables that made it happen. It may serve as a reminder of how the compounding effects of a nation’s traumatic past, the corruption of power by its elites, the pacification of its civil society, and the hubris of its leaders, could lead to a disastrous and unforeseen outcome.

Abstract

Geopolitical changes in the second decade of the 21st century have shifted the centre of international political power. Non-Western political power centres emerged and increased influence as the unipolar world transformed into a multipolar one. In contrast to the Cold War era, where ideology was the main instrument in dealing with Western influence, some contemporary geopolitical power centres carry the perception of historical glory as an important factor in their foreign policy, as demonstrated by Turkey under the leadership of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan with its neo-Ottomanism and Russia under Vladimir Putin with Eurasianism. By using discourse analysis methods on data collected through a literature review, this research finds that the perception of the historical glory of neo-Ottomanism and Eurasianism is important as a political bargaining instrument and shows opposition to Western unipolarity, even though there are differences in the level of coerciveness in the practices implemented by the two countries.

Abstract

This research aims to analyse Russian foreign policy toward Ukraine from 2014 to 2022. It uses a dual logical plural approach from Marxist IR Theory. This approach greatly emphasises the importance of two systemic logics, namely capitalism and geopolitics. Since this approach is used in the realm of foreign policy analysis, contextualisation of the level analysis is needed. In this case, the dual logical plural approach proposes a distinctive description of these levels of analysis. International condition refers to the imperialism of the present world order, domestic factor refers to the development of state capitalism, and actors refer to the alliance of political elite and capitalist class of state. Based on those distinctive features, this research concludes several crucial points. First, the expansionist economic manoeuvre of the European Union and the imperialist manoeuvre of the US played crucial roles in affecting Russia's foreign policy toward Ukraine from 2014-2022. Second, the specific history of Russian capitalism development, which gave birth to the emergence of regressive Caesarism, also plays a significant role. Third, the development of Ukraine's capitalism and its class dynamics play a central role in navigating Russia's or Western states' manoeuvres. The dominance of Western Ukraine, which particularly articulates the interests of Ukraine's middle class and Western states' geopolitical or economic interests, significantly forces Russia to change the nature of its policy from annexation to invasion Keywords: American imperialism, European Union expansion, Russian capitalism, regressive caesarism

Abstract

Despite the importance of labour migration in Southeast Asia, the mechanism of migrant workers protection in the region is still lacking. Because of that, cases show that often the undocumented and/or the low-skilled workers receive inappropriate treatment in the host countries. In certain cases, they were treated as second-class citizens – this is despite the work that they do. To address these issues, ASEAN has conducted a series of dialog forums and issued various agreements. In doing so, ASEAN have been involving different key stakeholders working on the issue, including international organizations, regional and national civil society organizations, and employers’ union. Unlike mainstream study which mainly focusses on the role of member states or ASEAN in developing regional mechanisms in the region, this research highlights the strategic role of International Labour Organizations (ILO). We argue that ILO is the powerful entities (aside of the member states) behind the region’s decision to pay more serious attention to the issue. This research shows how the ASEAN member states tend to be more open towards ILO’s involvement in their issues – while, because of the region’s norms of non-interference, they usually are reluctant to take any kind of external intervention to the region. Within this context, from the three possible type of roles of international organization in international system proposed by Clive Archer, i.e. as arena, instrument or actor, this article argues that ILO plays a role more as an actor that act independently to fill the gap left by the inability (unwillingness) of ASEAN member state to provide protection to their own migrant workers.

Abstract

In the modern age, the police institution is utilised as the primary spearhead to combat multiple sources of possible disruptions for the general safety of the public. The Indonesian National Police (INP) as a member of the INTERPOL takes part in multitude of activities conducted by the international organization. Currently, the Indonesian National Police is facing a rising number in the cases of missing persons, unidentified remains and crimes against children with casualties not only from Indonesian nationalities, but also international citizens. The current shortcoming of national technicalities and mechanism may open up a structured and tangible operational help from the INTERPOL in order to increase the efficiency and efficacy of police investigation in Indonesia. This research employs the securitization theory and qualitative method of analysis, along with field research and desk research respectively. Analysis shows that the Indonesian National Police is in favor of the agenda proposed by the INTERPOL during the 90th INTERPOL General Assembly, specifically to increase operational quality of member states, while also supporting the securitization process by the INTERPOL before and during the 90th General Assembly.

Abstract

International labour mobility has increased Indonesian female migrant domestic workers' involvement in transnational labour organisations. Because of their precarious work, advocacy and unions are crucial to protecting them overseas. This paper examines the debates on the political activism of Indonesian female domestic workers and discusses the gap that migration scholars have not yet addressed. The study's conceptual core employs the concept of migrant political transnationalism, which generates the intersection of migrant citizenship and receiving country sovereignty. The author has reviewed thirty journals using exclusion and inclusion criteria with a qualitative narrative literature review. Grassroots advocacy for Indonesian domestic workers primarily emerged in Hong Kong. On the one hand, territorial normativity and sovereignty in the receiving country may prohibit migrants from participating in politics. However, they still can engage in extra-electoral politics as non-citizens. Domestic workers advocate for their rights through lobbying, protests, and rallies. On the other hand, electoral political participation in homeland politics, which political transnational scholars rarely discuss, and their contribution to mobilising votes abroad is also necessary. This finding motivates the investigation's research agenda: Do Indonesian female domestic migrant workers engage with their electoral homeland politics?

Abstract

Since gaining independence in 1947, India's population, expansive land size, robust economic position, and historical and cultural ties have enabled it to dominate South Asian neighbours with comparatively less developed economies and weaker military strength. Since Narendra Modi assumed office as the Prime Minister of India in 2014, the “Neighbourhood First” policy was coined to enhance India's influence in South Asia, creating a favourable environment for its ascent as a global power. However, China's increasing military presence and influence in South Asia through financial and military support to neighbouring countries have disrupted the region's security architecture. This article uses qualitative methodologies to examine India's security threats from China's military and economic support to South Asian countries. The paper finds that South Asia holds a crucial and prioritised position in the foreign policies of both India and China. The strategic competition between India and China in the South Asian region has had and continues to impact the countries in the area significantly. With financial and military support, China is gradually shaping its influence in South Asia, posing a security threat that could isolate India in the Indian Ocean region. It concludes that China's attempts to contain India in the region led India to enhance military cooperation and strengthen its defence partnership with significant countries in the Indo-Pacific region to limit the threats from China.
