Abstract

The phenomenon of cross-border marriages between Vietnamese women and Chinese men is often reduced by mainstream media to simplified stereotypes—depicting them as victims of human trafficking, impoverished women seeking economic escape, or submissive "imported brides." Such depictions obscure the everyday realities through which these women confront and negotiate social stigma in a foreign socio-cultural environment. Drawing on narrative interviews with ten Vietnamese brides living in different regions of China, this study examines how stigma is experienced and negotiated through everyday survival strategies. Using a qualitative narrative approach, this research explores how participants respond to stigma through practices such as economic self-reliance, language acquisition, domestic labor, community-building, and selective identity performance. Rather than viewing identity as fixed, the findings suggest that hybrid or dual identities emerge through ongoing negotiations shaped by daily survival and social expectations. In this process, being “Chinese” in certain familial contexts while remaining “Vietnamese” within personal and community spaces becomes a practical way of maintaining dignity and stability.

Abstract

The 2027 French presidential election has become a contest over political legitimacy, and the media play a key role in shaping candidates’ images. Within the right-wing camp, Rassemblement National (RN) presents two potential figures, Marine Le Pen and Jordan Bardella. Le Pen faces legal threats that could prevent her candidacy, while Bardella is projected as a successor to represent RN in the contest. Drawing on framing theory Pan & Kosicki (1993) and Critical Discourse Analysis Fairclough (1995), this qualitative study investigates right-wing French media preferences between these two candidates. The analysis examines three articles each from Le Figaro and Le Point. Framing analysis finds that Le Figaro places Le Pen at the center through syntactic framing that reinforces her legitimacy. By contrast, Le Point foregrounds Bardella’s readiness and leadership capacity through marked rhetorical structures. CDA corroborates these results by revealing divergent editorial focuses. At the macro level, Le Figaro projects a populist image by positioning Le Pen as RN’s emblematic opposition to the government, whereas Le Point exemplifies RN’s de-demonization by giving Bardella space to craft a more moderate, broadly acceptable party image. These findings offer practical guidance for politicians seeking targeted media engagement.

Abstract

This study examines the media presentation of Bali on the Rednote platform, and explores how content creators can build Bali into an idealized tropical lifestyle space. The research selects four videos related to Bali produced by Rednote content creator Bi Lu Si Bruce (Hong Kong House Tour Original as the object of analysis, and uses qualitative research methods combined with semiotic analysis to investigate Cultural symbols conveyed in video visual images and language narratives. The research draws on Hall’s (1997) Cultural Representation theory, Urry’s (1990) Tourist Gaze theory, MacCannell’s (1976) Staged Authenticity theory, and Lefebvre’s (1991) theory of the production of space analyze how meaning is generated through images, discourse and emotional interaction, and also integrate the concept of emotional consistency of Peltari (2022) to explain how audience comments participate in the reproduction of Balinese images. The findings indicate that, through diverse cultural symbols, these videos represent Bali as an idealized Other, a tropical space closely connected to nature, and a site of comfortable residential living, which is further reinforced through affective identification in the comment sections, generating cultural meanings associated with naturalness, relaxation, and healing.

Abstract

Since COVID-19, Zoom has become the primary distance communication platform integrated with automatic transcription tools such as Otter and Descript. However, meetings involving non-native French speakers can generate sound interference that reduces transcription accuracy. This study compares the automatic French transcription quality of both tools in corporate online meetings affected by interference from native Indonesian speakers. The data consists of online meeting recordings of Indonesian speakers in French based on the textbook, Affaires.com. The analysis applies Weinreich’s (2010) interference theory, Le Querler’s (1994) word class theory, Word Error Rate, and Tholly et al.’s (2025) severity levels of automatic French transcription errors. The results show that both tools produced accurate transcriptions in the 10% error range, with Otter (10.18%) being slightly more accurate than Descript (10.22%). Regarding interference, phonetic–non-phonemic errors were the easiest to handle, while phonological–grammatical errors were the most difficult for both tools. Most of Otter’s errors fall into the most severe Fail category, causing incomprehensibility, influenced by its stronger language understanding. Meanwhile, Descript shows more Gram-level errors, which remain understandable but reflect weaker language understanding. Therefore, Otter is recommended for its stronger language comprehension, whereas Descript is recommended because its errors are still intelligible.

Abstract

Alienation as a novelty in archaeological research which in this study aims to explain how mentally illness patients are buried at Lawang Mental Hospital as an alienation and how the representation of the graves of patients with mentally illness. Alienation is a form of experience by individuals who are marginalized from society, one of which is people with mentally illness. Alienation in mentally illness does not only occur during their lifetime, but continues until they die. Lawang Mental Hospital, built in 1884, is the only mental hospital that has a special cemetery for mentally illness patients. The method used focuses on observation and documentation of 59 graves consisting of several forms. Based on the data of the existing graves, it shows that there is a continued alienation of mentally illness, even after death. This is based on the location of the graves far from the community, the lack of order in the arrangement of the graves, and the simple depiction of the shape of the headstones and the minimal use of inscriptions.

Abstract

Between the Sahara Desert and the Sudanese Savannah, the Sahel region has become a contested geopolitical space. This study analyses how France is reconstructing its hegemony following its military withdrawal through the rhetoric of Emmanuel Macron (2021 and 2025). Using Critical Discourse Analysis (Fairclough, 1995) and the theory of spatial production (Lefebvre, 1974), this study examines how the discourses of “partnership” and “security” are employed to maintain French influence. Qualitative methods were applied to Macron's speeches, French media, and statements by former presidents of Sahel countries. The results show that France is redefining the Sahel as a ‘crisis zone’ requiring external management, through a shift in the military's role into the economic and symbolic spheres. Even with a diminished military footprint, France’s hegemony continues to be articulated through discourse. Thus, it demonstrates how discursive strategies uphold neocolonial power after physical disengagement. This study contributes to postcolonial and geopolitical studies by showing that hegemony can be maintained through discursive strategy, even after the decrease in physical presence.

Abstract

This study examines how the Instagram account @tamansarimelawan plays a significant role in preserving collective memory and the identity of marginalized groups through digital archives. In the context of the Taman Sari urban village community, which resisted land eviction for the construction of row houses in Bandung, this research explores how Instagram as a social media platform contributes to the formation and maintenance of collective memory and community identity. Using content analysis of the @tamansarimelawan account, the study investigates the mechanisms through which social media functions as a digital repository, a medium for fostering a sense of belonging and continuity, and as a form of resistance among community members. The study employs Halbwach’s (1992) concept of collective memory to emphasize how collective memory is constructed and maintained within a community. Halbwach (1992) argues that memory is not only an individual phenomenon but also a collective one shaped by social context and interactions. This perspective is highly relevant for understanding how the @tamansarimelawan account documents and preserves the collective memory of eviction events experienced by the Taman Sari community. The account is analyzed through its visual content and narrative construction, including the documentation of photos, videos, and hashtags. These elements are examined to understand how digital archives contribute to the formation of a resistance identity and political awareness among both the community and the account’s followers. The posts shared on the account serve not only as records of events occurring during the eviction period but also as a medium to express grievances, aspirations, and collective solidarity among residents. The digital archiving conducted by @tamansarimelawan serves a dual function: it facilitates a voice for resistance and the building of solidarity within the community, while simultaneously documenting and broadcasting eviction events to a broader audience. This demonstrates that social media, through platforms like Instagram, can be a powerful tool for preserving the collective memory and identity of marginalized communities.

Abstract

This study examines the mediating role of consumer trust in the relationship between cultural factors and the purchase intention of Chinese Electric Vehicles (EVs) in Jakarta, Indonesia. While global EV adoption is often analyzed through techno-economic lenses, this research addresses a critical gap by investigating the under-explored socio-cultural dimensions that shape consumer behavior in emerging markets. Framed by an integrated theoretical approach combining Hofstede’s Cultural Dimensions, the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), and Reception Theory, the study explores how local cultural values such as collectivism, uncertainty avoidance, and social status filter the acceptance of Chinese EV technology. A qualitative case study methodology was employed, utilizing in-depth interviews and focus group discussions with nine key informants from multi-sector backgrounds (consumers, dealers, manufacturers, and government representatives). Thematic analysis was conducted to interpret the data. The findings reveal that while Jakarta consumers perceive Chinese EVs as useful due to economic and environmental benefits (perceived usefulness), adoption is significantly hindered by low perceived ease of use, primarily due to inadequate charging infrastructure and service networks. More importantly, cultural factors profoundly shape purchase intention: collectivist values emphasize social validation and peer influence, while high uncertainty avoidance fosters scepticism towards foreign product quality and safety. Consumer trust, built through social proof, hands-on experience, and reliable after-sales service, emerges as a critical mediating variable between these cultural perceptions and the final purchase decision. The study concludes that the acceptance of Chinese EVs in Jakarta is not merely a function of technological utility but a complex negotiation within the local cultural context. Effective market strategies must therefore adopt a multidimensional approach, integrating transparent quality assurances, culturally resonant communication, community-based marketing, and supportive government policies to build trust and align the product with local social values. This research contributes to cross-cultural marketing and technology acceptance literature by emphasizing the centrality of trust and cultural reception in the adoption of innovative foreign products in emerging markets.

Abstract

Phnom Penh was once known as the “Paris of the East,” serving as a major urban center in Indochina during the French colonial period. Colonial authorities shaped the city through functional zoning, planned street networks, and European-style architecture, all of which reflected hierarchies of power embedded in urban space. Despite the extensive destruction caused by the Khmer Rouge regime and subsequent postwar reconstruction, traces of colonial urban planning and architectural heritage remain clearly visible in the contemporary development of Phnom Penh. This study adopts a literature-based approach combined with historical analysis, spatial analysis, and architectural case studies to examine how colonial legacies have been preserved, transformed, or disrupted in the process of modern urban development. The findings indicate that key road axes and several colonial-era buildings have been retained or adaptively reused, particularly for tourism and commercial purposes. At the same time, market-oriented modernization has contributed to displacement, land-use conversion, and the widening of social inequalities within the city. As a result, the image of Phnom Penh as the “Paris of the East” has gradually faded, while elements of colonial heritage are being reappropriated as cultural assets, instruments of city branding, and symbols of new social status. This study argues that colonial legacies should be reconsidered not merely as remnants of the past, but as active components in an ongoing dialogue shaping a more inclusive urban identity for the future.

Abstract

Addressing the difficulties of sustainable development, the Jakarta Industrial Estate Pulogadung encounters the challenge of becoming more inclusive in constructing infrastructure for walkers by creating paths that are friendly for pedestrians As walking serves as an important sustainable and healthful means of transport, having pedestrian pathways can enhance how the public views pedestrian accessibility in their workplace. This, in turn, can promote the use of more eco-friendly public transport options. This research aims to explore how the public views pedestrians in industrial zones, with the goal of promoting spaces that are friendly to walkers. The study utilized a quantitative method paired with a mixed-methods analysis, which comprised observations, interviews, surveys, and spatial assessments. The Walkability Index measured at JIEP was recorded as 62.46, which is categorized as "waiting for walking." This designation suggests that the JIEP Industrial Area holds significant potential for transformation into an area that supports pedestrians, particularly by incorporating green corridors and adequate facilities along roadways. The objective of this article is to highlight the significance of designing industrial areas to create a more comfortable and pedestrian-friendly atmosphere, informed by observations of pedestrian experiences.
