Core Subject :
Global: Jurnal Politik Internasional is a biannual peer-reviewed journal that specialises in foreign policy, international security, international political economy, and transnational issues involving actors of the Global South, having implications towards the Global South, or perspectives from the Global South that are often overlooked in the mainstream journals in the Global North. With its first issue published in 1990, Global is the oldest university-based journal of International Relations in Indonesia, a historically leading actor in the Global South. Hosted by the Department of International Relations, Universitas Indonesia, Global has been serving as one of the primary platforms for ideas exchanges among Indonesia’s most influential thinkers and beyond. In its attempt to internationalise and further bridge the North and South perspectives, the journal welcomes submission of manuscripts that would be of interest to scholarly communities and policymakers. For this purpose, since 2019 Global only publishes articles in English. Global publishes two types of articles: original research articles offering theory-driven empirical analysis and review articles that critically examine contemporary debates in International Relations literature.

Abstract

Through the mandate of UNCLOS 1982 and the 1994 Agreement, the International Seabed Authority (ISA) exists as a regulatory regime for activities in the international seabed area. Interestingly, African countries are privileged over other countries by occupying the most seats on the ISA Council. In addition, the ISA's commitment to supporting the blue economy through the Africa Deep Seabed Resources project also accentuates the privileges of African countries. African countries' technological, financial, and knowledge capacity is minimal in seabed mining. Apart from this problem, this research aims to analyse the fundamental reasons for the ISA's actions that give privileges to African countries in international seabed mining. Using the theory of knowledge-based international regimes and the concept of productive power as analytical tools, this research finds that granting special status to African countries is driven by the formation of shared knowledge and the dominance of the productive power of African countries in the ISA. The absence of a strong superpower in establishing the ISA regime also reinforced the supremacy of productive power.

Abstract

Chinese New Year (CNY) celebration is one of the biggest celebrations for the Chinese Indonesians in Pontianak. This celebration allows the Chinese ethnic groups to remember and maintain their traditional roots while living in the host country. However, the high interest from non-Chinese Indonesians in visiting and participating in the CNY celebration raises questions about whether this diasporic activity unintentionally strengthens the favourability of the Indonesian people towards China and is used as a means of China's soft power. This study will discuss the spread of culture from the CNY Festival in Pontianak, which can serve as an instrument of China's soft power. This study uses a quantitative method through a survey of 384 samples and simple linear regression analysis. The variables used in this study are the Love of Listening to Music (Y1) and the Desire to Learn Mandarin (Y2), with the X variable being the CNY Festival. The research shows that the CNY Festival that is hosted by the Chinese community actually attracts and gives a positive impression of Chinese music and Mandarin language to native Indonesians, hence creating interest in Chinese music and the will to learn Mandarin. If utilised well, the diaspora can become a new soft power instrument for China.

Abstract

This study evaluates the effectiveness of Indonesia’s environmental policy reforms in the nickel sector as a response to global criticism regarding ecocidal practices. Indonesia's nickel industry plays a crucial role in the global supply chain, especially in meeting the demand for electric vehicles. However, the ecological impacts of this industry have drawn international scrutiny, particularly from environmental organisations highlighting extensive ecosystem damage. Using environmental security theory, this study focuses on evaluating policy reforms, such as the revision of Environmental Impact Assessments (AMDAL) and the regulation of hazardous and toxic waste (B3), as well as their impacts on ecosystem sustainability and social stability. The findings indicate that policy reforms tend to be reactive and face substantial implementation challenges in the field, which limits their effectiveness in reducing environmental degradation. Additionally, this research contributes to the environmental governance literature by highlighting the discrepancy between policy and practice, particularly in developing countries that face significant challenges in meeting global sustainability standards. The results of this study suggest that Indonesia requires a stronger and more sustainable governance approach to address global sustainability demands.

Abstract

This study analyses the dynamics of the implementation of international norms regarding the elimination of sexual violence in Indonesia, with a focus on the influence of narrative contestation on the protection of victims. Although Indonesia has ratified the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), implementing these norms at the domestic level still faces various challenges. The ratification of the Sexual Violence Crime Law (TPKS Law) marks a significant milestone in the protection of victims. Still, its effectiveness is doubtful due to resistance from domestic actors and political interests that shape the public will. Through a norm diffusion approach and qualitative analysis, this study explores how norm drivers play a role in promoting and internalising the norm of eliminating sexual violence in Indonesia. The analysis results indicate that domestic social and political resistance hinders the acceptance of these norms, thereby limiting the state's commitment to protecting victims. This study highlights the importance of more adaptive strategies from the state and normative actors in overcoming domestic obstacles to implementing global human rights norms.

Abstract

Political leaders always carefully choose what to say and how to state it, as all words count for influencing the public, explicitly or implicitly. Eventually, the ideas framed in a political statement are best understood contextually rather than merely textually. After Prabowo Subianto, the president of Indonesia, visited China in November 2024, both countries released a controversial joint statement. This article aims to analyse the political frames observable in the 2024 China-Indonesia joint statement with a discourse analysis method. The article found five political frames in the statement: 1) Indonesia agrees to China’s vision of global order; 2) China has a positive image as a trustworthy and non-discriminatory power; 3) Indonesia is open to intimate defence cooperation with China; 4) Indonesia aligns with and is on China’s side; 5) Indonesia supports China’s critical domestic and international ambition. With these findings, this paper argues that the joint statement is in favour of China politically and costs Indonesia its political image as a free, active, and democratic country.

Abstract

This research aims to understand China’s geoeconomic strategy in reshaping the alternative international order in the Asia-Pacific region. China’s economic rise increased its geopolitical influence and significance as a global great power. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) government, under Xi Jinping, has adopted classical ideas in its foreign policymaking, including tianxia. Tianxia is a classical concept of a hierarchical Sinocentric international order. An empirical study was conducted on several cases of China’s economic policy and analysed with the congruence method to determine the correlation between the tianxia concept and China’s economic policy. Tianxia served as a paradigm and justification for the Xi Jinping administration’s foreign policy making. Additionally, China’s economic expansion background is its economic pragmatism and the rise of Chinese nationalism. The China-led Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO), the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), and the Global Development Initiative (GDI) are being utilised to reshape and create a Sinocentric alternative international order. This was supported by China’s economic capabilities and geostrategic position in the Asia Pacific region. China combines constructive and coercive approaches towards the Asia Pacific countries to safeguard its national interests.
