Abstract

Japan is a country that has a domestic market for illegal ivory trade. After the Conference of the Parties (CoP) adopted a resolution regarding the recommendation to close the domestic ivory market, many parties asked Japan to close it. This study aims to describe the implementation of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) regime in dealing with the ivory trade in Japan after the recommendation to close the domestic ivory market that contributes to poaching or illegal trade. This research uses descriptive qualitative research methods and is based on the concept of international regimes initiated by Robert O. Keohane. The results show that CITES' implementation in dealing with the ivory trade in Japan was carried out through two events, namely through the CITES governing body and through cooperation between management authorities and TRAFFIC.

Abstract

Climate change will have a negative impact on farmers due to changes in rainfall, air temperature, and water availability, especially in drought prone areas such as the Gunungkidul regency of Indonesia. This may disrupt food availability, because it forces farmers to switch the function of agricultural land, especially paddy fields, to more commercially productive uses. The Sustainable Food Agriculture Land Protection (SFALP) Policy is a policy designed to suppress the conversion of land functions so that food availability remains stable and even increases in the future. This research aims to understand the overall performance conditions of the SFALP policy implementation, constraints, and supports for the policy. The research is qualitative, with a case study approach. Data are collected qualitatively through literature study, observation, in-depth interview and focus group discussion. In terms of policy input, the availability of financial and human resources is sufficient because currently the main focus is on planning and designation activities, but the availability of land with new rules is insufficient, so there must be new rice fields planted. In terms of output, there is no established Sustainable Food Agriculture Area (SFAA), but there are some indications of one. Barriers include unclear policy incentives, policies that are logically inaccurate in determining SFAA, the limited budget, attracting public interest, weak juridical enforcement due to unclear regulations, and overlapping inter-organizational relations. Support comes from farmers' receipts, the existence of local regulations on SFALP in Gunungkidul Regency, and support from the Gunungkidul Regent and the Provincial Government.

Abstract

This article examines the network built by buzzers in the 2024 Presidential election. The basic assumption is that the buzzer phenomenon is an industry that affects political dynamics. This qualitative research uses network theory to identify the text production process carried out by buzzers, and uses a political economy approach to analyze the relationships formed between buzzers, agencies (buzzer industry) and politicians. Data were collected through interviews and documentation. The findings; first, there are 4 stages in the production of text on social media. This starts from the agency's process of recruiting potential buzzers to create texts according to the agency's framing. Second, the main actors of the buzzer industry are buzzers, agencies and politicians. In this relationship, the dominance of power is owned by the agency as an extension of politicians. The agency controls and encourages a narrative to be created. The first domination is done by politicians to the agency to produce text narratives according to their political interests. Then the agency transforms the interests of politicians or political parties to buzzers. Agencies and politicians are in the same line of interest, namely building a narrative of an interest. The visible relationship between the agency and the buzzer is a relationship between workers and service providers.

Abstract

The utilisation of culture as a dominant tool in Indonesia's diplomacy creates an identity that Indonesia as an archipelago country has diverse cultures within its nation. The cultural performances are also conducted dominantly by Indonesia worldwide instead of other tools of diplomacy including in Azerbaijan which is conducted about 6-10 times a year. This study aims to explain the reason behind Indonesia utilising culture dominantly in diplomacy practice in Azerbaijan. This paper begins by examining the reason why and ends by comparing and exploring culture, tourism and peace values as dominant tools in Indonesian diplomacy practices. This study employs a mixed-method exploratory sequential where content analysis focusing on 'Indonesia's cultural diplomacy' especially through cultural performances worldwide conducted. It concludes that Indonesia has been utilise culture as a tool of diplomacy practice dominated to other tools due to some reasons Indonesia is the biggest archipelago country with thousands of cultures on every island; Indonesia wants to maintain cultural diversity as its identity worldwide; Indonesia holds an “independent and active” foreign policy which stands as a non-align country. Therefore, using cultural diplomacy as part of soft power is the best means to expand its relations with other countries and shape its international image; as a culturally diverse country, Indonesia believes that the value of its culture has strong relations to the tourism sector, peace, and even economic value as part of its national pillar. On the other hand, Indonesia’s embassy in Azerbaijan is counted as young; therefore, building a trust rooted in cultural diplomacy is an essential thing to develop both countries' relations.

Abstract

This paper aims to examine the complex interplay between migration, human rights, and security, focusing on the recent trends in state responses to refugee protection and the implications for international human rights standards. A qualitative analysis of current literature, policy documents, and case studies was conducted to assess the evolving political dynamics surrounding migration. The study also evaluates the roles of international organizations, such as the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in shaping refugee protection norms. Results: The findings reveal a significant rollback in state commitments to refugee protection, driven by rising nationalism and security concerns. This regression has resulted in the implementation of restrictive migration policies that prioritize national interests over humanitarian obligations, leading to increased vulnerability for displaced populations. The analysis highlights the critical role of NGOs and international bodies in advocating for refugee rights, despite facing challenges from state-centric approaches and power imbalances. Conclusions: The paper concludes that addressing the challenges at the intersection of migration, human rights, and security requires a concerted effort among states, civil society, and international organizations. By fostering collaboration and recognizing the human rights implications of migration, it is possible to develop more inclusive and compassionate policies that uphold the dignity and well-being of refugees and asylum seekers in a rapidly changing global context. give a great title for this article

Abstract

The notion of economic development often goes hand in hand with political stability. Even in the so-called democratic countries, political stability usually came before democratic value as an underlying reason to keep economic development on track. As one of the biggest democratic countries, India also experiences the paradox. Paradoxically, being one of the digital superpowers with the highest total internet transactions and internet infrastructure, India consistently shown internet shutdowns amidst massive civil protests. Recently, there was a massive farmer protest in February 2024 towards minimum selling prices, which triggered the Indian government to cut off internet access and ban the platform 'X' in several districts in India. Using digital authoritarianism approaches, we argue that the Indian government has claimed digital sovereignty to construct counter-narratives toward the protesters. The strategy was to quell the agitation of the protesters and facilitate the filtering of information amidst massive protests. To investigate the notions, we performed qualitative content analysis upon official social media account of the Indian government. Further, they also target minority groups to limit freedom of information. The Indian government employed such tactics to cover up the atrocities that occurred to prevent attention from the international media. Thus, India does not receive allegations regarding human rights violations

Abstract

Ketandan Village is one of the oldest villages located right in the middle of the modernization of the city such as hotel buildings, office centers and trade on Embong Malang, Tunjungan, Praban and Genteng Kali roads. This area is often referred to as the golden quadrilateral of Surabaya's economic growth. In the context of spatial anthropology, the existence of the old village actually has a very strong sociocultural foundation, especially if it is then associated with the presence of the An-Nur Mosque building, the Tomb of Mbah Buyut Tondo and the Joglo Cak Markeso Cultural Hall in the middle of the village. The momentum to develop this cultural capital emerged in 2016 when the revitalization of Joglo Cak Markeso as a pilot project of the Global Public Space Programme (GPSP) and the issuance of the Mayor's Decree related to the status of Ketandan tourism village in 2020. Through the perspective of the political anthropology of space, the spatial aspect is not only measuring technical-material matters but also intertwined with the content of values, knowledge and ideology that affect the social life of the community. The problem is that the cultural construction that is formed is still artificial and procedural, which does not reach the anthropological aspects of space. Spatial practices are incidental and do not become social rituals that encompass daily life. This means that the historic building does not work in the political anthropology of space or move into the political economy of cultural capitalization. This anomaly is a sign that there is cultural disorientation due to weak sociocultural attachment to spatial practices and the determination of urban modernization.

Abstract

This study examines the role of women leaders in transforming village governance amidst the dominance of patriarchal culture. The primary objective is to uncover the experiences and leadership strategies employed by women in implementing significant changes within rural communities. Utilizing a qualitative method with descriptive analysis, data were collected through in-depth interviews with the village head, local officials, and residents of Metatu village. By adopting postcolonial feminist theory as an analytical framework, this research highlights the social, cultural, and structural challenges faced by women leaders. The findings reveal that they have implemented the digitalization of public services, enhanced community participation, and leveraged Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) to increase local revenue (PAD). Despite employing transformational leadership strategies based on collaboration and effective communication, women leaders continue to face resistance and encounter a double bind in decision-making processes. These findings underscore the necessity of structural support and policy reforms to optimize the role of women in village governance
