Abstract

This study investigates the anthems of two prominent Ghanaian universities, the University of Cape Coast (UCC) and the University of Education, Winneba (UEW), to understand how they contribute to institutional identity and serve as tools for institutional branding within a competitive higher education context. The study is informed by Social Identity Theory (Tajfel & Turner, 1979) and Institutional Branding Theory (Balmer & Gray, 2003). Utilising a qualitative multiple case study design, the study purposively selected official lyrics of anthems of both universities, conducting textual analysis complemented by thematic analysis. The findings indicate that UCC and UEW strategically leverage their anthems to project distinct brand identities to both internal and external audiences, with UCC foregrounding pedagogical leadership and national service, and UEW emphasising moral purpose and ethical excellence. Despite these contrasts, three core identity dimensions emerged for both institutions: professional teacher education, institutional pride and prestige, and forward-looking aspirations. The study concludes that university anthems serve as active instruments of identity construction and branding, reinforcing cohesion, distinctiveness, and the institutional mission. These findings underscore the importance of symbolic cultural artefacts in shaping the identity and communication strategies of higher education institutions.

Abstract

This study examines the transnational diffusion of Indonesian dangdut music as a cultural phenomenon contributing to cosmopolitanism and international engagement. The intensification of globalization has progressively reconfigured the boundaries between local and global cultural production, positioning popular music as an aesthetic medium that articulates identity and facilitates cross-cultural exchange. Within this context, the increasing visibility of dangdut beyond Indonesia’s borders raises pertinent scholarly questions regarding the role of aesthetic practices in shaping soft power dynamics and intercultural acceptance. The research is conceptually anchored in multi-track diplomacy, which recognizes the interplay between state and non-state actors in transnational cultural dissemination. Methodologically, it employs a qualitative approach operationalizing Rogers’ theory of diffusion of innovations to analyze how cultural products evolve, adapt, and attain legitimacy within diverse social systems. This framework is integrated with the concept of cosmopolitan aesthetics, which foregrounds cultural hybridity and shared emotional experience as mechanisms fostering cross-cultural resonance. The central argument posits that the international diffusion of dangdut music exemplifies a cosmopolitan process wherein local cultural identities undergo recontextualization rather than erosion within global cultural flows. By conceptualizing dangdut as both an aesthetic expression and a diplomatic instrument, this study contributes to scholarly discourse on cultural diplomacy and offers an alternative paradigm for understanding how cultural practices may function as pathways toward engagement and harmony in contemporary international relations.

Abstract

Charles de Gaulle stands as one of the most influential political leaders of the twentieth century, whose vision and leadership profoundly reshaped France’s political institutions, foreign policy orientation, and national identity. This article critically examines de Gaulle’s pursuit of French sovereignty and strategic autonomy within the broader theoretical frameworks of nationalism, state sovereignty, and political leadership. By employing qualitative historical analysis and interpretive political methodology, the study explores how de Gaulle transformed France’s domestic governance through the establishment of the Fifth Republic and redefined its international role by pursuing an independent foreign and defense policy during the Cold War. Particular attention is paid to France’s withdrawal from NATO’s integrated military command, the development of an autonomous nuclear deterrent, and de Gaulle’s pragmatic approach to decolonization, especially in Algeria. The research builds on previous analyses by integrating detailed case studies of French institutional reforms, diplomatic correspondence, and domestic political debates, thereby providing a more nuanced understanding of Gaullism as a framework for political sovereignty and the reconstruction of national identity. The findings suggest that de Gaulle’s policies not only restored France’s global status but also created a lasting model of strategic autonomy that continues to shape French political identity. This study adds to current debates on leadership, sovereignty, and post-imperial state change by providing a comprehensive view of Gaullism as both a political doctrine and a durable framework for national independence.

Abstract

Pakistan is exceptionally vulnerable to climate-induced hazards such as floods, droughts, and water scarcity, which disproportionately affect its most vulnerable communities. This systematic qualitative review synthesizes evidence to examine the interplay between these environmental challenges and the social responses of at-risk populations. The objective was to understand how socioeconomic factors shape vulnerability and to identify the coping and adaptive strategies communities employ. Following a PRISMA-style screening approach, a comprehensive search of academic databases (Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar) and institutional reports yielded 41 studies for narrative synthesis, guided by Vulnerability Theory. Key findings reveal that recurrent floods in Punjab and Sindh, and prolonged droughts in Balochistan, exacerbate economic losses, displacement, and health risks. In response, communities use short-term coping mechanisms, such as temporary migration and borrowing, alongside long-term adaptive measures, such as crop diversification, water management, and local disaster committees. The synthesis of Focus Group Discussions and Key Informant Interviews highlights that adaptive capacity is critically shaped by income, education, gender, social networks, and institutional support, with women and youth facing distinct vulnerabilities. The findings underscore the need for integrated, community-centered policies that combine hazard mitigation with socioeconomic support and institutional strengthening. This review contributes to evidence-based policymaking for sustainable disaster management and climate adaptation in Pakistan.
