Abstract

South Sudan became independent from Sudan in 2011 after a long history of ethnic and political conflict. Despite being rich in oil resources, the country continues to be caught in turmoil and violence fueled by ethnic strife, particularly between the Dinka group led by President Kiir and the Nuer group led by former Vice President Machar. Peace agreements signed in 2015 and 2018 failed to stop the violence. This has led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people and millions of refugees. The UN's implementation of the Responsibility to Protect (R2P) faces various financial, logistical, and immature understanding of the peace process. Regardless of international efforts, the situation in South Sudan remains fragile, and R2P implementation requires a more comprehensive and adaptive strategy. Therefore, the author seeks to analyze the implementation of R2P in the South Sudan conflict by considering the concept of international organization and Responsibility to Protect (R2P). The author employs a qualitative research method with a descriptive and analytical approach to this article.

Abstract

Singapore's unique geopolitical context has long necessitated a foreign policy grounded in pragmatism, strategic foresight, and a deep understanding of global dynamics. Among Singapore's leaders, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong stands out for his nuanced international thinking, which balances realism with multilateral engagement, and national interests with global responsibilities. This paper explores the key themes of Lee Hsien Loong's worldview-including globalization, China's rise, the importance of the United States, and regional cooperation, and examines how these have shaped Singapore's foreign policy. Through a qualitative analysis of public speeches, interviews, and secondary literature, the article provides a comprehensive assessment of Lee's international outlook, arguing that it represents a strategic synthesis of small-state survivalism and liberal internationalism.

Abstract

This study examines Fiji’s intricate governance landscape, a product of its colonial past, military interventions, and subsequent constitutional reforms, which have collectively fostered a highly centralized political system. By critically analyzing the evolution of Fiji’s political structures alongside the case study of FIJI Water, the research highlights significant tensions between national unity efforts and the preservation of traditional indigenous governance. The study employs qualitative methodologies, drawing on extensive secondary data from academic literature, government documents, and media reports to assess the implications of centralized authority on democratic participation and environmental policy. Findings reveal that while recent reforms have sought to eliminate ethnic-based representation and promote a unified national identity, they have also marginalized traditional institutions and limited public accountability. In parallel, the FIJI Water controversy illustrates the broader conflict between corporate interests and the sustainable management of natural resources, as local communities continue to face challenges in accessing clean water despite the country’s global brand image. The analysis underscores the urgent need for legal reforms—such as enforcing Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) and decentralizing governance structures—to empower indigenous groups and strengthen public participation in environmental decision-making. Ultimately, the study argues that a recalibrated governance model, which integrates environmental democracy with political reforms, is essential for ensuring sustainable development and upholding human rights in Fiji.

Abstract

This paper explores the role of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) as a key defense institution in safeguarding Israel’s national security following its conflict with Hamas, using defensive realism as the primary theoretical framework. This theory underscores the state’s priority in preserving security without seeking hegemonic power. Within this framework, the IDF is viewed as playing a crucial role in maintaining national integrity through military preparedness and air defense strategies, notably the deployment of the Iron Dome system to counter rocket threats from Hamas. The analysis also highlights the significance of defense diplomacy, particularly strategic cooperation with the United States, in enhancing the IDF’s operational capacity. By applying theoretical insights and case-based evidence, this paper demonstrates how the IDF effectively mitigates the impact of external threats and reinforces public security in a volatile post-conflict environment.

Abstract

Food issues have become a sensitive topic because they are one of human life's basic needs and necessities. Somalia is one of the countries suffering from a sustained food crisis over the past few decades. This is caused by factors that have implications for the sustainability of the lives of its people. Therefore, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), an international organization operating in the field of food, has developed strategies through its programs to address the food crisis in Somalia in its efforts to combat famine disasters and achieve sustainable food security. This research uses the theory of International Organization Policy Implementation through the Management Approach as an analytical framework. The methodology used is descriptive with qualitative data analysis techniques. Data was collected through secondary data, namely documents and official publications from related sources. The research findings state that the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) implements its programs through monitoring, capacity building, and problem-solving. Monitoring is implemented through an annual reporting system on food crisis conditions, evaluations, and representative visits. Capacity building is achieved by developing individual, organizational, or community capacity through mentoring, skills, knowledge, and training. Problem solving through financial assistance and support. This research aims to provide an overview of the efforts of international organizations to address issues in a country.

Abstract

The notion of cultural soft power has always been addressed as the use of one film industry for the sake of a state’s soft power in international politics. However, the idea of a state–film industry combination omits and treats the two entities with identical and similar interests or powers. Confronting this conceptualization, this research uses an inductive methodology in its conceptual paper, which criticizes the existing concept and provides a new framework for analysis. This research offers a new conceptual framework to understand the seemingly combined nature of the film industry and state in world politics and to treat them as two distinct entities with different logics and interests. To do so, this paper proposes the use of the political economy approach to the film industry and Foucault’s governmentality for state rationality. Taking the case of Hollywood during the Cold War, this research argues that the combination of the state and film industry could only be realized in terms of industry profitability and the enhancement of the state’s images toward the international population. In other words, while the film industry will only want to propagate the state’s images in its international market because it is profitable, the state is equipped with various tools to create such conditions.

Abstract

On the 26th of September 2023, the 7th President of Indonesia, Joko Widodo, officially inaugurated the launch of the first carbon credit trading platform of Indonesia, IDXCarbon. The launch of this carbon credit trading has marked another stepping stone of Indonesia to its commitment to combating climate change and further strengthening its position in the global environmental conservation arena. The aim of this article is to critically evaluate the potential opportunities and benefits of the carbon trading scheme in Indonesia through the lens of Environmental Economics theory, while also assessing the potential challenges through the scope of Political Ecology theory . This article employs Environmental Economics theory in analyzing how the establishment of a carbon trading market presents potential benefits in addressing greenhouse gas emissions by implementing economic value in carbon reductions. The carbon trading adoption in the environmental policy framework in Indonesia aims to encourage low-carbon economic practices and innovations across various sectors. On the contrary, this article will also provide a critical examination towards the adoption of carbon trading in Indonesia through the lens of Political Ecology theory. Political Ecology theory will highlight the underlying power relations across state, private actors, local communities, and international stakeholders that raise skepticism regarding the credibility, governance, and the actual environmental impact of the carbon trading scheme in Indonesia. Furthermore, Political Ecology theory focuses on the potential challenges, such as fair implementation and preventing the marginalization of vulnerable communities involved in carbon trading practices. Overall, the establishment of a carbon trading market in Indonesia through IDXCarbon marked a revolutionary step in Indonesia’s commitment to combat climate change. Through the comparative analysis of the potential opportunities and challenges in regards to the adaptation of carbon trading in Indonesia, this article argue that the adaptation of carbon trading in Indonesia requires a robust regulatory and environmental ethical framework in order to balance the potential benefits presented by the framework while mitigating the potential challenges that can further hinder the overall benefits of carbon trading.

Abstract

This research investigates how migration infrastructure facilitates worldwide student mobility within the broad scope of higher education internationalization, together with a specific focus on Universitas Mataram, Central Eastern Indonesia. Despite the push for international education through National KPI Universities (IKU) , universities in peripheral regions often face significant architectural obstacles to access the above opportunities. Taking the notion of migration systems, the study examines the ways in which institutional arrangements, actors, and practices interact to shape student mobility experiences. By using migration infrastructure concept,Student mobility and internationalization the analysis shows that during internationalization efforts to facilitate cross-border connectivity, their results are unevenly distributed The occurrence of Universitas Mataram reveals the same constraints and the development of the building of the local educational migration nerve pathway. This study found three-part analysis: a) migration infrastructure for student mobility at University of Mataram, b) pattern and form of student mobility, c) Adaptation of internationalization of higher education by supporting migration infrastructure at University of Mataram. These discoveries add to our understanding of the ways in which periphera.l higher education institutions are able to negotiate national mandates and local difficulties to participate equally at global level.

Abstract

This literature review explores the concept of hegemonic stability in the context of rising global competition between the United States and China. Drawing upon foundational theories of hegemonic stability by scholars such as Robert Keohane, Charles P. Kindleberger, A. F. K. Organski, and Robert Gilpin, alongside Antonio Gramsci’s theory of hegemony, the paper examines how global leadership and stability are maintained through political, economic, and ideological dominance. The review traces the historical evolution of U.S. hegemony and investigates the emerging challenge posed by China's rapid economic growth, global infrastructure investments (notably the Belt and Road Initiative), and increasing international influence. Through a theoretical and empirical analysis, the paper argues that China's ascent marks a shift toward a multipolar world order and raises the question of whether China could potentially displace the United States as the global hegemon. The study concludes by emphasizing the significance of leadership, legitimacy, and consensus in sustaining international stability amid shifting power dynamics.
