Abstract

This study explores the evolution of open government in Tunisia by mapping scholarly literature published between 2011 and 2025, coinciding with the country’s accession to the Open Government Partnership. Using bibliometric analysis with VOSviewer, the research examines review articles retrieved via Publish or Perish and indexed in Google Scholar, focusing on transparency, public participation, and accountability. The analysis identifies three thematic clusters: fiscal transparency and access to information, public participation and democratic innovation, and institutional accountability and digital governance. These clusters reflect the priorities of both government and civil society, while highlighting Tunisia’s role as the first MENA country to join the OGP. Findings reveal that academic discourse has shifted from exploratory studies after the Arab Spring to more consolidated analyses of implementation and institutionalization. Nonetheless, challenges remain, including institutional fragmentation, political instability, and limited civic capacity to influence policymaking. This study contributes by providing a systematic overview of research trends and thematic priorities, and by offering policy-relevant recommendations. Strengthening open data practices, promoting substantive citizen participation, and enhancing accountability through independent oversight and integrated digital governance are proposed as key strategies to advance democratic governance in Tunisia and the broader MENA region.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis bagaimana identitas keagamaan direkonstruksi dan dimobilisasi oleh aktivis dalam gerakan penolakan pembangunan kandang ayam skala besar di Desa Cibetus, Kecamatan Padarincang, Kabupaten Serang, Banten, serta menjelaskan peran agama sebagai kerangka moral, sumber daya simbolik, dan bahasa politik dalam konflik lingkungan di tingkat lokal. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode fenomenologi untuk menangkap pengalaman hidup dan pemaknaan subjektif para aktivis yang terlibat langsung dalam pendampingan warga yang terdampak pencemaran lingkungan, ancaman kesehatan, dan kriminalisasi. Data diperoleh melalui wawancara mendalam dengan aktivis dari berbagai organisasi, observasi terhadap praktik keagamaan dan aksi penolakan, serta analisis dokumen gerakan dan pemberitaan media. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa identitas keagamaan bukanlah pemicu awal perlawanan, tetapi menjadi semakin sentral seiring eskalasi konflik dan tertutupnya jalur formal politik serta hukum yang dianggap tidak responsif terhadap keluhan warga. Praktik keagamaan seperti pengajian, istighosah, doa bersama, dan ceramah berfungsi sebagai ruang refleksi moral dan konsolidasi sosial yang memungkinkan aktivis mentransformasikan persoalan lingkungan dan kesehatan menjadi narasi ketidakadilan moral, kewajiban keagamaan, dan tanggung jawab kolektif untuk menjaga ciptaan Tuhan. Melalui proses tersebut, agama memberikan legitimasi moral bagi perlawanan, memperkuat solidaritas kolektif, serta membentuk batas antagonistik yang jelas antara “kami” sebagai komunitas warga beriman yang memperjuangkan kehidupan, kesehatan, dan lingkungan, dan “mereka” sebagai negara serta korporasi yang diasosiasikan dengan logika pembangunan berorientasi modal. Penelitian ini menegaskan bahwa identitas keagamaan merupakan sumber daya diskursif yang dinamis dan kontingen dalam mobilisasi gerakan sosial, sekaligus menantang wacana pembangunan dominan dalam konteks Indonesia kontemporer

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic exposed fundamental weaknesses in the existing global health architecture and highlighted the limitations of national responses to transboundary health crises. Persistent post-pandemic challenges, including long COVID, mental health crises, disruptions to non-communicable disease services, and unequal access to vaccines, demonstrate the need for effective international coordination in global health governance. This study examines the dynamics of collaboration between the World Health Organization (WHO) and China in the post-COVID-19 period and analyzes its implications for the global health architecture. Using a qualitative research design with descriptive-analytical methods, this study relies on secondary data collected through library research, including official WHO documents, International Health Regulations (IHR 2005), World Health Assembly reports, and relevant academic literature. The analysis is guided by the liberal institutionalism approach to understand how international institutions and regimes shape state behavior through norms, rules, and cooperative mechanisms. The findings indicate that WHO functions as a global health regime that influences state behavior primarily through normative authority and institutional legitimacy rather than coercive power. The interaction between WHO and China illustrates both the effectiveness and limitations of the global health regime, as cooperation remains essential but is often shaped by political negotiation and geopolitical considerations. This study concludes that strengthening WHO’s institutional capacity and reinforcing compliance mechanisms within the IHR are crucial for building a more resilient and credible global health architecture in the post-pandemic era.

Abstract

This article aims to conduct a comparative study of students' perspectives on regional head election models (Pilkada), focusing on their compatibility with the principles of democracy and people's sovereignty. The method is a sociological approach to law, used to investigate students' perceptions and political behavior regarding the regional head election system. The analysis used a comparative-descriptive approach, comparing applicable principles and theories with sociological realities through the distribution of questionnaires to students in the Malang Raya region. Based on student responses, 86.9% of respondents believed the representative system (DPRD) could not fully represent the people's mandate. Direct elections were considered to better guarantee political equality (one man, one vote), which could ensure the implementation of democratic principles and become an effective form of social control, compared to the representative system, which was feared to trigger transactional politics. Although the majority of students preferred direct regional elections, they mentioned several weaknesses of direct elections, such as high political costs due to money politics and the risk of social polarization, which could potentially undermine people's sovereignty. This indicates that students are more in favor of direct regional elections despite several unresolved weaknesses and their concern for the regional election system in Indonesia, while still prioritizing the principles of democracy and people's sovereignty.

Abstract

The South African region with its large population is an attraction for Indonesia to be used as an alternative (non-traditional) market share. Indonesia's economic diplomacy was then directed to the African Region. This research aims to analyze the implementation of Indonesia's economic diplomacy in the African region, especially in Egypt and South Africa, in order to expand economic cooperation and increase Indonesia's influence at the global level. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive analysis approach. This research uses data collection techniques through secondary data (literature studies) obtained from journal articles, books, media and so on. This article uses the theory or concept of economic diplomacy. The results of the study show that Indonesia's proactive economic diplomacy efforts in the African region, especially Egypt and South Africa, have an impact on Indonesia's economy. Economic diplomacy in the African region is carried out not only bilaterally, but also multilaterally, for example the Indonesia-Africa Forum. Not only does it have an impact on the economy, it is also political, such as increasing Indonesia's bargaining power or influence in the African region and in the international world.

Abstract

The Papua issue has become one of the prominent topics in Indonesia’s relations with  South Pacific countries, particularly due to the shared Melanesian identity between Papuans and many communities in the region. The expansion of digital media has further facilitated the dissemination of narratives surrounding Papua through news coverage, political statements, and international forums, shaping both regional and global public perceptions. This study aims to explain how Melanesian identity is constructed within the digital discourse of South Pacific countries regarding Papua and how Indonesia responds to such identity construction through its diplomatic approaches. This research employs a qualitative approach using a library research method. Data were collected from books, scholarly journals, official documents, institutional reports, and relevant online publications. The analysis utilizes the concept of Political Netnography developed by Robert V. Kozinets and Rossella Gambetti to examine patterns of interaction, narratives, symbols, and the formation of political identities within digital spaces. The findings reveal that Melanesian identity in the digital discourse of South Pacific countries is constructed as a foundation for solidarity with Papua through narratives of human rights, decolonization, and ethnocultural affinity. These narratives are continuously reproduced through online media and international forums, including the United Nations and the Melanesian Spearhead Group. In response, Indonesia employs formal diplomacy, exercises its right of reply in international forums, strengthens cooperation with South Pacific countries, and promotes counter-narratives emphasizing sovereignty, territorial integrity, and development in Papua. The study concludes that the contestation of narratives regarding Papua takes place not only in formal diplomatic arenas but also in digital spaces that play a significant role in shaping collective identities, public opinion, and international perceptions of Papua and Indonesia.
