Journal of Global Strategic Studies aims to become one of the preeminent journals in Political Science, notably on International Relations, Comparative Politics, and Area Studies. At this point we publish our issues twice a year, in June and in December. Depending on the number of submissions, we may increase the frequency of our publication in the future. We welcome submission on foreign policy, security studies, democracy, political psychology – anything that is interesting and high quality. As we also aim to inform policy makers and stimulate debates in political science, and thus, we are publishing both research articles and essays – so this journal will be part academic and policy journal. We also welcome and publish book reviews and short essays that question the findings and arguments in articles that we published.

Abstract

The payment digitalisation leads to financial integration with the cross-border payment implemented by ASEAN. This implementation is being conducted bilaterally among ASEAN member states, for instance between Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand. The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed by each central bank since 2022 aims to reduce the US dollar dependency which shows positive and progressive results. This issue is interesting to be studied further as the transaction of rupiah to ringgit is higher compared to baht, but Indonesia conducted the implementation of cross-border payment using QR Code for the first time with Thailand. Furthermore, there is a currency rate conversion between Indonesia and Thailand from each central bank. This article uses qualitative research methods with qualitative and quantitative data usage. Using the foreign economic policy which refers to Hiscox (2014), this article found that Indonesia has been cooperating with Thailand in using QR Code due to the exchange rate agreement between IDR and THB to maintain the stability of the exchange rates of each currency, people movement to travel that showed an increment in QR Code transactions, to perceive the mutual gains and recovery for the tourism and SMEs sectors, and private sector and independent central back involvement within this implementation. Keywords: Cross-border payment; Indonesia; QR Code; Thailand

Abstract

In the context of the Global South, this research examines the dynamics of relations between Indonesia and China, with a particular emphasis on economic cooperation, diplomacy, and geopolitical influence. This research primarily examines the impact of the Indonesia-China strategic partnership on the economic development of Indonesia and the ASEAN region, as evidenced by initiatives such as the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). It also examines the potential economic dependency and geopolitical conflict in the South China Sea and the implications of this cooperation for developing countries. This study concludes that the Indonesia-China partnership can serve as a model of South-South collaboration that contributes to a more equitable multipolar global order. However, it necessitates strategic balance to prevent over-dependence. This conclusion is reached through a qualitative approach.

Abstract

Until now, academic literature has described public diplomacy and strategic communication as two distinct; analogous; connected; occasionally conflicting or incompatible; constitutive or subordinate to the other concepts. Still, their correlation has yet to be clearly defined. Nonetheless, a strategic approach to public diplomacy communication efforts would provide PD actors with the necessary tools to better assess and evaluate input, output and the impacts and outcomes of their campaigns and policies. This article identifies four communication components with strategic value in public diplomacy: the Message, the Medium, Engagement and Listening. These components can fulfil both relational and strategic functions and provide the basis for a successful implementation of essential strategic tools, such as audience analysis, message strategy, channel choice, program assessment and measurable goals and objectives. The suggested approach could serve as a starting point for enhancing the effectiveness of applied public diplomacy or for developing new public diplomacy strategies, that would serve better the interests of both governments and their foreign audiences.

Abstract

In spite of periodic tensions, the Australia-Indonesia relationship has historically been characterized by cooperation instead of competition. However, Jakarta’s official expressions of concern in response to Canberra’s plans to acquire nuclear-powered submarines under the AUKUS pact in 2021 prompted a recalibration of bilateral ties. Now, amidst significant upheaval of the global geopolitical landscape, this article revisits Indonesia’s reaction to the announcement, the factors that shaped its response, and the security agreement’s enduring implications for Australia-Indonesia relations. The article contends that for Australia, AUKUS has become a necessity to reduce the capability gap between itself and China. From the Indonesian perspective, a disconnect exists between official and unofficial views on AUKUS. Within Indonesia’s policymaking circles, there is an implicit understanding, communicated through informal channels, of the agreement’s potential benefits, despite public expressions of concern. For the Australia-Indonesia bilateral relationship, which has developed from a notably low base, AUKUS ultimately portends both challenges and opportunities in the realm of defence cooperation and beyond.

Abstract

This paper is interested in hybrid warfare and states’ defensive policy responses from a Western perspective. Hybrid warfare has become a critical component of contemporary interstate conflicts, deliberately narrowing the gap between conventional military engagements and grey zone operations. It combines military tactics with non-military tools, such as cyber operations, disinformation campaigns, and economic coercion, to weaken adversaries without engaging in conventional warfare. Russia’s War in Ukraine illustrates the use of hybrid warfare to achieve imperialist objectives, while similar campaigns have targeted other Western democracies. China’s actions in the Indo-Pacific reflect comparable hybrid strategies. While much attention has focused on its offensive use, less is known about how states respond defensively. This paper explores how Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Canada, the United States, and Finland respond to hybrid threats. It argues that Western policy responses are uneven, with some states better prepared than others. Effective defence requires a clear definition of hybrid warfare, a whole-of-government approach, and sustained resources. Based on publicly available policy documents, this comparative case study assesses how national interests are protected, despite limitations due to the classified nature of hybrid operations.

Abstract

Waste trade from developed to developing countries reflects systemic environmental racism. Wealthy nations turn poorer nations into dumping grounds, creating structural injustice and geography-based discrimination. The concept of ecological colonialism reinforces this, highlighting environmental exploitation in colonized countries. Environmental issues and so-called “green” policies are often used by developed nations to impose dominance over the Global South. This is manifested in the exploitation of natural resources, dependency on debt and foreign loans, technological domination, and waste colonialism. Such practices demonstrate that environmental protection is prioritized only for the powerful, while marginalized communities are sacrificed, thereby reinforcing structural inequality and dependency. This study frames waste trade not as ordinary commerce but as a form of domination over developing countries, particularly in Asia and Africa. Using qualitative methods and secondary data collection, it presents a theoretical framework to explain how waste trade becomes a tool for developed nations to create structural dependency.

Abstract

Large language models (LLMs) and generative artificial intelligence (AI) systems are emerging as key intermediaries in the global circulation of news and political knowledge. Yet the datasets that feed these systems are neither neutral nor universal. Governments, regulatory bodies, and corporate ecosystems are now treating training data as a strategic resource—one that can encode national priorities, cultural hierarchies, and geopolitical narratives into the algorithmic infrastructures of communication. This conceptual essay develops the notion of algorithmic diplomacy, arguing that nations are actively curating, regulating, and disseminating datasets to project soft power through AI. Drawing on theories of epistemic sovereignty, digital colonialism, and media framing, the paper identifies three main mechanisms: (1) data curation and localization, (2) model fine-tuning and regulatory alignment, and (3) narrative seeding through open-source ecosystems. Comparative illustrations from the European Union, the United States, China, Russia, and the Gulf states reveal how “feeding the algorithm” has become a new instrument of influence within the global information order. The essay concludes that algorithmic infrastructures now constitute a form of epistemic territory—a contested space where values, identities, and political legitimacy are negotiated through data rather than discourse.

Abstract

The European Union’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) affects China’s export interests and provides a stage for identity performance in policy discourse. This article examines how China’s dual identity as a developing country and as a responsible major power structures its assessment of CBAM and its implied responses. Using qualitative content analysis with a MIC-mini coding scheme, the study analyzes 41 elite and semi-mass texts and translates four variables (Self, Other, Valence, Action) into comparable indicators, including the Identity Salience Index (ISI), Average Valence Score (AVS), and Action Orientation (AOR) under a 60 percent dominance rule. Findings show a stronger responsible major power framing in 2023, a persistently negative tone that becomes more legal and procedural, and action signals that shift from protest toward technical coordination. Developing country references persist, preserving flexibility between equity claims and rule-shaping. The study offers a replicable way to quantify identity in discourse and to link identity emphasis to tone and implied action.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Our paper attempts to describe two main questions: first, what anti-corruption strategy that both two President exercised their power and maintain legitimacy crucial for their presidency, Xi from 2012 up to present and Jokowi from 2014 to 2024. We are interested to discuss fuller on why did Xi and Jokowi took these strategies. Second, what are the outlook for the anti-corruption measures can be taken near the future, for Jokowi up to 2024 and for Xi will not have time limit post centralizing power under Xi’s power. We argue that Xi Jinping anti corruption targeted the political corruption related to his Chinese dreams confront with more certainty and stable domestic environment after he could centralized under his power. On the other hand, Jokowi first term has to overcome with a more dynamics domestic environment; although, in the beginnig of his presidency, he was perceived as anti-corruption politicians and acted adhere with good public governance principle, transparency and accountable. However, Jokowi’s second term altered his anti corruption stance. He governed his priority was no longer following transparency and accountable rather than economic development per se. This comparative study seeks to provide a deeper understanding of the relationship between anti-corruption strategies, power consolidation, and political legitimacy within presidential regimes that differ in their institutional characteristics. Keywords: Anti corruption, political corruption, comparative case of China and Indonesia ABSTRAK Artikel ini mengkaji dua pertanyaan utama: (1) bagaimana strategi antikorupsi yang dijalankan Xi Jinping (sejak 2012 hingga kini) dan Joko Widodo (2014–2024) digunakan sebagai instrumen untuk mempertahankan dan memperkuat legitimasi kekuasaan; serta (2) bagaimana prospek kebijakan antikorupsi pada periode kepemimpinan berikutnya, khususnya berakhirnya masa jabatan Jokowi pada 2024 dan rezim Xi yang tidak lagi terikat batasan masa jabatan setelah pemusatan kekuasaan di bawah otoritasnya. Kami berargumentasi bahwa strategi antikorupsi Xi berfokus pada pemberantasan korupsi politik yang mengancam konsolidasi kekuasaannya dan realisasi Chinese Dream, terutama dengan menciptakan lingkungan domestik yang dianggap lebih stabil dan terkendali. Sebaliknya, pemerintahan Jokowi pada periode pertama berupaya memperkuat legitimasi melalui citra antikorupsi dan penerapan prinsip tata kelola pemerintahan yang baik, transparansi, serta akuntabilitas. Namun, pada periode kedua, prioritas kebijakan Jokowi mengalami pergeseran menuju agenda pembangunan ekonomi, sehingga komitmen terhadap reformasi antikorupsi cenderung melemah. Kajian komparatif ini berupaya memberikan pemahaman yang lebih mendalam mengenai hubungan antara strategi antikorupsi, konsolidasi kekuasaan, dan legitimasi politik dalam rezim presidensial yang berkarakter berbeda secara institusional. Kata Kunci: antikorupsi, korupsi politik, legitimasi kekuasaan, studi komparatif, Cina, Indonesia

Abstract

Indonesia’s Golden Visa, launched in 2023 through Minister of Law and Human Rights Regulation No. 22/2023, is promoted as a residence-by-investment scheme to attract foreign capital and talent for post-pandemic recovery and digital transformation. This article uses a qualitative descriptive approach based on documentary analysis of regulations, internal guidance, official statistics, and scholarly literature on Golden Visa programmes, investment migration, and digital immigration governance. It examines how Indonesia’s scheme is designed and how far its monitoring and governance arrangements are specified.The findings show that Indonesia, as a latecomer, selectively borrows design elements from European models longer residence durations, high investment thresholds, and privileged treatment for targeted investors and global talents—while embedding the programme in a digital-by-design architecture with online application and stay-permit services. However, there is a gap between relatively sophisticated ex-ante design and under-specified ex-post monitoring and evaluation. References to investment realisation, supervision, and revocation lack operational detail on risk-based triggers, inter-agency coordination, and data governance. The article argues that Indonesia’s Golden Visa must move beyond investment-promotion rhetoric toward an end-to-end, digitally supported monitoring model and contributes to debates on policy diffusion, investor migration, and digital governance by emphasising institutional capacity and accountability.
