Abstract

Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, reshaped European security and prompted divergent responses among Western powers. This study examines the foreign policy responses of the United Kingdom and Germany to the Russia-Ukraine conflict during 2023-2024, asking: what factors account for the differences in their approaches despite a shared commitment to supporting Ukraine? Employing Poliheuristic Theory and Rational Choice Theory, the study analyses how decision-makers in both countries evaluated policy alternatives across political, economic, security, and international dimensions. The findings reveal stark contrasts in decision-making processes and outcomes. The UK adopted a proactive, assertive stance, rapidly delivering military assistance, implementing broad economic sanctions, and maintaining consistent political support for Ukraine. British policy was driven by NATO alignment, post-Brexit strategic repositioning, and domestic political incentives favouring decisive action. Germany, by contrast, followed a cautious and incremental path, constrained by deep energy dependence on Russia, longstanding economic ties, and a diplomatic foreign policy culture. While Chancellor Scholz's Zeitenwende declaration signalled a historic shift in German defence policy, implementation was slowed by domestic political divisions and competing strategic priorities. The poliheuristic analysis shows that both states employed non-compensatory elimination strategies, rejecting options threatening core national interests, before optimising remaining alternatives based on strategic benefit and domestic political costs. The study concludes that foreign policy responses to security crises are fundamentally shaped by historical context, structural dependencies, domestic politics, and leadership style. While both nations ultimately supported Ukraine, their pathways differed significantly. These findings underscore that analysing decision-making processes, not merely outcomes, is essential for understanding how democratic states navigate shared security threats under competing constraints.

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the implementation of the Forest Programme IV (FP IV) as a form of Indonesia–Germany cooperation to support community empowerment and environmental management in the buffer zone of Gandang Dewata National Park (TNGD), Mamasa Subdistrict, Mamasa Regency, West Sulawesi Province. This program is part of community-based forest and land rehabilitation efforts in the Mamasa Watershed (DAS) area. The research focuses on the program’s implementation in improving community livelihoods and the challenges encountered during its implementation. This study employs a qualitative case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and document analysis. The research analysis employs concepts of international cooperation and community development to understand the relationships among stakeholders and the community empowerment process in the program’s implementation. The results indicate that Forest Program IV in Mamasa Subdistrict was implemented through the provision of business capital support, production tools, and assistance to Forest Farmer Groups (KTH). This program contributed to increasing community economic activities, particularly in agriculture, plantations, honey enterprises, handicrafts, and agroforestry. In addition to increasing community income, the program encouraged community involvement in forest management and environmental conservation within the TNGD buffer zone. However, the program’s implementation still faces several challenges, including limited market access, limited community understanding of the program, mismatches between some activities and community needs, low community participation, and the impact of climate change on the sustainability of community enterprises.

Abstract

Declining fertility has become one of the most significant demographic challenges facing advanced economies in East Asia. This article examines the dynamics of declining birth rates in China, Japan, and South Korea and their implications for long-term economic sustainability and social stability from a Non-Traditional Security perspective. This study employs a comparative qualitative approach using secondary data derived from international reports, national statistics, and relevant academic literature. The findings suggest that declining fertility in these countries is driven by a combination of economic pressures, shifting social values, and the limited effectiveness of pro-natalist policies. In the long term, persistent low fertility is likely to accelerate population ageing, reduce the size of the labour force, and increase pressure on welfare systems. Therefore, the fertility crisis in East Asia should be understood as a multidimensional challenge that requires comprehensive and long-term policy responses.

Abstract

This article examines why Indonesia, the Philippines, and Malaysia respond differently to broadly similar hybrid threats from China in the South China Sea. It adopts a qualitative, most-similar-systems design and applies a neoclassical realist framework in which hybrid pressure is treated as a common systemic stimulus filtered through three domestic dimensions: elite perception, institutional capacity and integration, and state-society relations. The analysis shows that the Philippines has shifted toward denial, backed by formal alliance ties and a deliberate strategy of public transparency; Indonesia relies on diversification, combining legal firmness with diplomatic and operational choices that avoid overdependence on any single partner; and Malaysia maintains soft balancing oriented around the protection of offshore economic interests. These divergent outcomes cannot be explained by material asymmetry alone. By applying a neoclassical realist framework to these three cases, this article links hybrid coercion at sea to the domestic filters that turn similar external pressure into distinct policy paths.
