Abstract

This paper examines the complex dynamics of the Israel-Palestine conflict, focusing on the role of interest groups, particularly the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) in shaping US foreign policy. The conflict, rooted in historical and territorial disputes, has seen recurrent escalations, most recently triggered by Hamas attacks on Israel. The United States, a longstanding ally of Israel, provides substantial financial and military aid, with AIPAC exerting influence on policymakers to maintain and strengthen this relationship. Through qualitative research methods and literature studies, the paper analyzes the impact of AIPAC's lobbying efforts on US policy responses to the Israel-Palestine conflict. The article finds that the AIPAC lobby is deeply rooted in US policymaking structures, ranging from vice-president, and higher-echelon staff, to parliament members. This article also finds that since 2021, AIPAC has developed its policy to participate in political campaign contributions. Understanding AIPAC influences, the authors note that ethical considerations are crucial to maintaining a strong and representative democracy in the United States. This paper recommends the US to refocus its national interest because such overly foreign influence on national policymaking has the potential to harm America's long-term relationships and interests in the Middle East if the US can’t make the barrier for foreign interference toward its national interests.

Abstract

Saudi Arabia is one of the largest destination countries for Indonesian immigrant workers, where the majority are women. Unfortunately, most of them are also victims of physical torture, sexual violence and rational discrimination. This resulted in many cases emerging as a result of this torture. However, the policies during the Jokowi era are considered quite progressive compared to the policies for protecting migrant workers during the Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) period with the presence of special laws, not just Presidential Regulations as were issued during the SBY era. How and why the government plays such a significant role is the main study in this research. This research uses a qualitative approach with a library study type of research. The results found were that the government during Jokowi's leadership played a big role in protecting the rights of Indonesian migrant workers, especially in Saudi Arabia. This role is reflected in the government's responsibility in various policies which make Jokowi's policies considered pro People Diplomacy. Through the 2015-2019 Medium Term Development Plan, for example and supported by Nawa Cita, during the Jokowi government, Law Number 18 of 2017 concerning the Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers was issued as the highest legal umbrella which was then also followed by other policies such as bilateral cooperation and placement systems. channel (SPSK) or One Channel System. The Jokowi government's policy is based on two reasons. First, the fact that immigrant workers in Saudi Arabia contribute the largest remittance of all migrant workers in various countries, beating Malaysia (Kompas, 2023). Second, migrant workers are a potential profession to meet Indonesia's demographic bonus target in the future. Therefore, this research sees that the government's role in protecting migrant workers has been very good during the Jokowi administration. It's just that the issue of Indonesian migrant workers requires commitment from other actors who also play a very important role, such as distribution companies or providers of migrant workers.

Abstract

This research discusses the implementation of the electric vehicle ecosystem in Indonesia as one of the steps to support the goals stated in the Paris Agreement, namely achieving net zero emissions (NZE) by 2060. Indonesia is one of the countries that implements electric vehicles to achieve NZE. However, Indonesia's technology is not yet established for producing electric vehicles and distributing them to the global market. Therefore, this research was motivated to look at 20 sources of literature that have discussed cooperative relations in the Indonesian automotive industry sector with electric vehicle-producing countries. This research maps this literature using a taxonomy method in three main topics, namely (1) the development of the transportation and automotive sector in Indonesia, (2) China, South Korea, and Japan as cooperation partners in the electric vehicle industry, (3) the readiness of electric vehicle ecosystem implementation in Indonesia. This research also includes the explanation of national interest theory to see the perspective of international relations in the purpose of the Indonesia government in achieving electric vehicle ecosystem.

Abstract

The year 2022 marked the re-outbreak of a chaotic war, between Russia and Ukraine, in Eastern Europe. While military attacks between the two warring countries were not directed to countries around the region, and Sweden does not have a shared border with both countries, Sweden decided to apply for NATO membership a few months after the war began. This decision contradicted with Sweden’s long-standing tradition of neutrality in foreign affairs for almost two centuries. Using the framework of neoclassical realism along with the concept of alliance, the shifting stance is explained through systemic incentives and intervening variables, which comprised of (1) the inconsistency in the utilization of Russian military capabilities and (2) the European Union's defense challenges; (3) the Swedish military posture, (4) the Swedish Prime Minister's perception, and (5) the majority support within the Riksdag (Swedish Parliament). This research also indicates that Sweden’s neutrality would be maintained during international competition or the growth of alliances with significant power capabilities in the region. However, the neutrality did not extend to non-military aspects such as trade and transportation access.

Abstract

In the context of cybersecurity, ASEAN plays an important role as a normative extension that carries out norm subsidiarity of UN global cyber norms generated from UN GGE and UN OEWG processes. The subsidiarity of norms promoted by ASEAN serves to place any kind of global issues and global interest at the regional level, as well as regional issues and regional interest at the global level. This paper focuses on the implications of ASEAN as a regional institution in the context of cyber norm subsidiarity toward UN global cyber norms. This paper utilizes Acharya’s norm subsidiarity to explain how ASEAN performs a norm subsidiarity of UN’s cybersecurity norms. We argue that ASEAN’s norm subsidiarity role is possible due to the fact that the UN’s cybersecurity norms to regulate the responsible state behavior in cyberspace from the UN GGE and UN OEWG process were symmetrical to ASEAN Way’s emphasis on prioritization member states’ sovereignty and non-intervention principles. Furthermore, this article finds that the implication of ASEAN’s norm subsidiarity to the region’s own cybersecurity accomplishment is still unidentifiable. This article also finds that there are many factors affecting the process of norm subsidiarity in ASEAN, such as the heterogeneity within the institution and the lack of political will of the member states.
