Abstract

Human trafficking is an increasingly serious problem in Thailand, making it a country of origin, transit, and destination for many victims. This research aims to explore the role of the International Organization for Migration (IOM) in addressing the issue of human trafficking in Thailand. This research uses the conceptual framework of transnational advocacy networks introduced by Keck and Sikkink. The method used in this research is a descriptive qualitative approach, where the researcher has access to various relevant qualitative data collection techniques in obtaining textual data for study and analysis. This research found that, firstly, information politics is conducted by conveying information to raise public awareness through social media platforms. Secondly, symbolic politics involves symbols and campaigns to raise awareness of the dangers of human trafficking. When leveraging politics through surveillance, advocacy, and the implementation of international standards to pressure the Thai government. Finally, accountability politics focuses on turning government statements into policies that can regulate human trafficking in Thailand. Although IOM has implemented various programs and policies, the number of human trafficking cases continues to increase year after year. Key challenges include corruption at the law enforcement level as well as a lack of evaluation of existing programs. This article makes an important contribution in exploring IOM's role in addressing human rights violations in Thailand, particularly in prevention efforts, victim protection, and challenges faced in implementing policies related to human trafficking.

Abstract

Paradiplomacy in Indonesia has emerged as a strategy for local governments to enhance international cooperation. However, challenges such as regulatory constraints, lack of coordination with the central government, and misalignment with national foreign policy persist. This study systematically reviews articles indexed in the Scopus database to understand how subnational actors, such as local governments and non-state actors, utilize paradiplomacy to enhance their international relations. Using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method and the PRISMA approach, the initial search identified 17 articles, of which 14 were relevant and available in full text. The analysis revealed that research on Indonesia's paradiplomacy is relatively recent, with the earliest publication in 2018. Most studies focus on the relationships between local governments and international actors in economic, social, and cultural cooperation. Key challenges include bureaucratic issues and differing interests between central and local governments. This study found the urgent need to simplify regulations for regional governments to enhance diplomatic capacity at the local level and improve coordination between central and regional governments to increase the effectiveness of paradiplomacy. Transparency and accountability in international cooperation are also crucial to ensure benefits and prevent foreign investors from overshadowing local development priorities, thus ensuring fairness in the process.

Abstract

This study aims to identify a model of Asymmetric Relations in International Relations studies. The method of this study is content and bibliometric analysis based on published journal articles in the SCOPUS Database in the last two decades, from 2004 to 2024. A total of 107 articles met the inclusion criteria. The data from the search results were then analyzed using scientific visualization and the VOS viewer tool to analyze the network relationships underlying the publication and the publication trend information on Asymmetric Relations. The finding revealed that asymmetric relations in the study of International Relations have sub-themes related to war and conflict in the first ten years, and economic themes are discussed in the following ten years. The transformation is associated with the rise of soft power in the economic sector, particularly through China’s Foreign Direct Investment. The main findings of the study on asymmetric relations are (1) A weak position in terms of military power increases threat perception, as realists predict; (2) Shared identity decreases threat perception, as constructivists predict; (3) Shared identity increases cooperation in economic policy areas. This study concluded that through hard power, asymmetric relations can lead to hegemony. In contrast, through soft power, economic stability among countries can be achieved, as reflected in China’s relations with Asian countries.

Abstract

This study examines the strategic role of Indonesia's leadership in the Parliamentary Union of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (PUIC) during 2025–2026 to accelerate economic integration among Muslim-majority countries. Despite the large population and shared cultural and religious ties, intra-OIC trade remains stagnant due to regulatory fragmentation and weak legislative coordination. Drawing on neofunctionalism theories, this research highlights five key agendas proposed by Indonesia: harmonizing investment regulations, synchronizing legislative priorities, enhancing transparency in strategic projects, clustering key economic sectors, and developing joint investment packages. This article employed a qualitative descriptive approach, utilizing secondary data from relevant literature on PUIC. The findings suggest that Indonesia’s leadership demonstrates how neofunctionalist spillover dynamics may apply in non-European contexts, but face institutional fragmentation challenges within the PUIC framework. Specifically, findings indicate conditional potential for transforming the PUIC into a catalyst for collective economic governance, provided that structural constraints and deep-seated policy fragmentation are effectively addressed. This condition strengthens the global economic position of the Islamic world.

Abstract

This article reviews peer-reviewed scholarship published between 2010 and 2024 to evaluate how Türkiye’s cultural-intelligence-driven leadership has shaped conflict management in Eastern Mediterranean energy diplomacy. Drawing on the four dimensions of Cultural Intelligence—cognitive, behavioural, motivational, and metacognitive—the study maps these capacities onto transformational, situational, and adaptive leadership models. It codes emergent themes through qualitative content analysis. Evidence from key inflection points—such as the 2019 Türkiye-Libya maritime accord, NATO-facilitated de-escalation efforts, and post-Ukraine-war supply-chain disruptions—suggests that a high cognitive CQ equips Ankara to anticipate rivals’ legal and diplomatic moves, while behavioural CQ enables fluid shifts between naval signalling and conciliatory rhetoric. Motivational CQ appears to sustain engagement despite exclusion from structures like the East Mediterranean Gas Forum, and metacognitive CQ accelerates strategic course corrections. In combination with a transformational–adaptive leadership blend, these competencies expand Türkiye’s bargaining space and preserve its narrative of becoming a regional energy hub. However, persistent trust deficits and maritime jurisdiction disputes still impose structural constraints. The article proposes a “CQ-Based Leadership and Conflict-Management Framework” intended to inform multi-party resource-governance strategies for both states and energy firms.

Abstract

Yemen's strategic position in the region has led to the escalation of its internal conflict into a proxy war between Saudi Arabia and Iran. This study aims to analyze the impact of Yemen's proxy war on Middle East geopolitics from 2015 to 2023, employing a qualitative descriptive content analysis with a regional geopolitical approach, informed by literature study techniques in data collection. The results showed that the proxy war in Yemen has impacted Middle Eastern geopolitics, particularly in the security and economic sectors. Iran's support for the Houthis militia has prompted responses from other regional countries based on their respective interests. The intensity of Houthi attacks on Yemen's border areas has also created border insecurity and increased tensions between countries in the region. Meanwhile, in the economic and trade sectors, the proxy war in Yemen has resulted in increased operational tariffs on regional trade, forcing countries to adjust their economic policies. This study reinforces the notion that a country's geographic position influences the geopolitics of the surrounding region and has the potential to create a domino effect on regional political instability, as seen in the conflict in Yemen.

Abstract

This article examines the role of Islamic Relief in supporting Palestine from the perspective of the Transnational Advocacy Network. The conflict in Palestine, particularly in Gaza, raises the central question of how non-governmental actors contribute to global advocacy efforts amid the large-scale civilian suffering. The article is based on qualitative research, utilizing a literature review as a data collection technique, with constructivism as the theoretical framework. This study positions Islamic Relief as a transnational humanitarian organization whose work is shaped and rooted in Islamic values. The findings showed that the efforts to address the crisis in Gaza are carried out by Islamic Relief, not only by delivering direct social assistance but also by mobilizing public awareness through their online platforms. By prioritizing narratives of humanity and global justice, Islamic Relief attempts to strengthen the international advocacy network supporting Palestine. From a constructivist perspective, Islamic Relief becomes an actor who shapes global response to the current situation in Gaza that leads to genocide. Thus, this study highlighted Islamic Relief's role in building global solidarity for Palestine, based on an interpretation of core Islamic values that require the organization to go beyond mere aid and actively engage in transnational advocacy.

Abstract

The internationalization of Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs) has emerged as a prominent phenomenon in global trade and political dynamics. Sinopec, one of China's leading SOEs in the energy sector, exemplifies this trend through its engagement in Angola. This research explores Sinopec’s internationalization strategies, focusing on its motivations, the geopolitical context of its operations, and its contributions to both China’s energy security and Angola’s economic recovery. Utilizing a qualitative methodology, this study analyzes secondary data from government reports, academic sources, and policy documents. Findings reveal that Sinopec’s expansion is driven by China's long-term goals of energy security and geopolitical influence, aligning with broader initiatives such as the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). Moreover, Sinopec’s investments have significantly contributed to Angola’s infrastructure development, although concerns persist about environmental impact, governance, and local social dynamics.
