Abstract

This study investigates the emergence and escalation of the Mahmuda ter- rorist group in Ilorin, Kwara State, historically one of Nigeria’s most peaceful regions and explores the implications for national security. Drawing on the fragile state theory and the ungoverned spaces framework, the study em- ploys qualitative analysis based on secondary data sources including media reports, expert interviews, and policy documents. The findings reveal that Mahmuda originated as a religious group offering social services but gradu- ally transformed into a violent network exploiting ungoverned spaces such as the Kainji Lake National Park. The group leveraged socioeconomic dis- content, weak state capacity, porous borders, and religious influence to radicalize and mobilize followers. Initial state responses were marked by denial and poor coordination, allowing the group to entrench its operations. The study emphasizes that unless Nigeria addresses the structural drivers of fra- gility which include poverty, unemployment, weak institutions, and the ero- sion of public trust, such groups will continue to flourish. The paper concludes with policy recommendations aimed at reinforcing state authority, community resilience, and inter-agency collaboration.

Abstract

This study discusses the dynamics of localizing global norms for child protec- tion in the context of preventing child marriage in Bone Regency through Amitav Acharya’s localization theory and the Pentahelix collaborative model. Although Indonesia has ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child and imple- mented various national policies, the practice of child marriage remains preva- lent due to the strength of local social and cultural norms, such as the value of siri’ na pacce and literal interpretations of religious teachings. This study employs a qualitative approach with in-depth interviews of key actors, includ- ing local government officials, religious leaders, academics, children’s forums, and the media. The findings show that the SIP PEKA program has success- fully reduced the number of child marriage dispensations by integrating con- textual educational, regulatory, and participatory approaches. However, chal- lenges remain in the form of limited binding local regulations, limited media support, and sectoral egoism among agencies. Therefore, stronger cross- sectoral collaboration and broader community participation are key to strengthening the program’s sustainability. This research contributes to inter- national relations studies by highlighting how global norms can be absorbed and reinterpreted in local contexts through responsive and participatory ap- proaches.

Abstract

The government holds the responsibility of delivering public services that are effective, efficient, and adaptive to contemporary developments. The utilization of information and communication technology (ICT) has given rise to the practice of digital government. Bogor City is among the regions that have implemented digital service transformation through the Pakuan Prima platform, managed by the Department of Population and Civil Registration (Disdukcapil). This study aims to analyze the implementation of digital governance transformation through Pakuan Prima services and to examine the extent to which the principles of agile governance are reflected in its practice. A quantitative approach was employed using a survey method, involving 100 respondents drawn from a total population of 9,670 users. Data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS). The findings reveal that digital governance transformation through Pakuan Prima achieved an average score of 4.09 (categorized as good), the e-services variable scored 4.22 (very good), while the agile governance variable recorded 4.04 (good). Statistically, digital governance transformation has a significant effect on e-services, e-services significantly influence agile governance, and digital governance transformation indirectly impacts agile governance through e-services. These results underscore that the implementation of digital transformation enhances the quality of public services and supports a form of governance that is more agile, responsive, and citizen-oriented.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between inflation dynamics, economic policy responses, and local political stability in three countries with differing institutional contexts, Turkey, Malaysia, and Indonesia, over the period 2020– 2025. The research is grounded in a comparative descriptive-analytic ap- proach, enabling a systematic assessment of how inflationary pressures in- teract with political and institutional arrangements at the sub-national level. Methodologically, the study utilizes official macroeconomic statistics comple- mented by secondary sources, including economic policy reports, working papers, and peer-reviewed literature produced by international institutions such as the IMF, World Bank, and OECD. The Qualitative analysis is further supported by NVivo 14, which is used to examine policy discourse patterns and visualize comparative trends across countries. The findings demonstrate that inflation extends beyond its conventional role as a macroeconomic vari- able and exerts a direct influence on socio-political dynamics and local politi- cal stability. Turkey exhibits pronounced inflation volatility driven by uncon- ventional monetary policies under strong political influence, which has inten- sified social tensions and weakened local stability. In contrast, Malaysia has maintained relatively moderate inflation through prudent monetary manage- ment and targeted subsidy policies, supporting social stability despite changes in national leadership. Indonesia represents an intermediate case, where co- ordinated monetary and fiscal interventions are deployed to contain inflation and sustain social resilience amid an ongoing political transition. It addresses a critical gap in existing research on economic pressures and socio-political resilience at the sub-national level.

Abstract

This article aims to investigate and examine the relevance of Western civil society theory within non-Western civil society discourse and practice, particularly in the context of civil society in Indonesia. In Western civil society theory, there is an argument that dichotomizes the relationship between civil society and the state, asserting that civil society is a socially constructed institution that exists outside the involvement and domain of the state. Based on this dichotomy, civil society must possess the characteristics of autonomy, independence, and self-generating capacity. This article tests these propositions by using the Indonesian Forum for the Environment (WALHI) and the Indonesian Legal Aid Foundation (YLBHI) as case studies. To achieve this research objective, this study was conducted through in-depth interviews with activists, key figures, and former activists, as well as literature studies using official documents and related publications on WALHI and YLBHI. The findings reveal that applying Western civil society theory in Indonesia requires theoretical revision and modification, including the redefinition of civil society as a social group that may be established solely by society, or jointly by society and the state, with discourse and practical domains shaped by dynamic interactions with the state domain. As a result of this redefinition, it is found that, of the civil society criteria emphasized in Western theory, Indonesian civil society has successfully manifested the characteristic of autonomy, while still striving to realize the characteristics of independence and self-generating capacity. This condition is influenced by the intense interaction between accommodative state policies, international institutional involvement, and the participation of the communities they advocate for, all of which shape the dynamics of civil society’s growth and development in Indonesia.

Abstract

The smart city initiative in Jambi City exemplifies the opportunities and challenges of digital transformation in local governance. This study develops a framework for smart governance transformation in Jambi City, focusing on two critical components: the dynamic managerial capabilities of municipal staff and aligning digital application architecture with Smart Governance (SG) principles. Using a mixed-methods approach, we quantitatively assessed the influence of managerial capabilities and technology adoption factors on smart governance outcomes. We employed the Technology Adoption Model (TAM) and the Technology–Organization–Environment (TOE) framework to guide this assessment. We then qualitatively validated the results through interviews, focus group discussions, and document analysis. The study found that dynamic managerial capabilities have a stronger impact on smart governance outcomes than technology factors alone. Stakeholders who embraced innovation and integrated digital tools achieved better service quality, efficiency, and citizen participation (â H” 0.5, p < 0.01). This was compared to the moderate effect of application usability and alignment (â H” 0.3, p < 0.05). Although user-friendly “Quick Win” apps improved services, their potential was limited by low organizational readiness and poor integration. Qualitative evidence confirmed that leadership support and staff empowerment were crucial to success. These findings demonstrate the importance of pairing technology with human capacity and collaborative governance. The study proposes a design framework that combines capacity building with application architecture refinements to institutionalize smart governance principles.

Abstract

This study critically examines media representations of former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte’s arrest and prosecution for crimes against humanity before the International Criminal Court (ICC), situating the analysis within the broader framework of sustainable governance and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 16 (Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions). Employing Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) through Fairclough’s Three-Dimensional Model and van Dijk’s Ideological Square, the research investigates competing narratives, ideological framings, and linguistic strategies in selected international and Philippine news media. Findings reveal polarized portrayals: international outlets often depict Duterte as a strongman finally facing justice, while some local media frame him as a political victim and nationalist martyr. These divergences reflect deeper tensions between global legal norms and domestic political rivalries, notably the Marcos–Duterte feud, which influences perceptions of the ICC’s legitimacy. By foregrounding the media’s role as active discursive agents rather than neutral conveyors of information, the study underscores how narrative framing shapes public trust in governance, the rule of law, and accountability mechanisms. The insights extend beyond transitional justice in post-authoritarian contexts, offering implications for sustainable governance frameworks that uphold human rights, protect civic space, and strengthen institutions—principles that are also critical to advancing environmental governance, addressing environmental justice, and safeguarding defenders of both human and ecological rights.

Abstract

This study seeks to determine whether the lowland rice farmers of Iligan City are socially sustainable by looking at their lived experiences, their engage- ment with local policy-making, and the government’s support towards them. The study used a qualitative research design employing a case study method on three farmers’ associations in the city. Purposive sampling is utilized for selecting the respondents, whereby the rice farmers and the relevant local government officials, and CSOs have undergone KIIs. In contrast, the officers of the cited farmers’ associations: TUFA, SUFA, and ZRFWA, underwent FGDs. Thematic analysis is then utilized to treat the data. The inquiry into the farm- ers’ lived experiences revealed the human cost of ineffective government support, where laws fail to translate into sufficient tangible benefits for the farmers, and sentiments reflecting eroded trust and isolationism inevitably arise when they feel unheard. With politicking and resource constraints crip- pling their policy influence, stringent eligibility criteria for government support hindering them from getting any; and reactive, short-term solutions failing to address their susceptibility to climate change— the farmers’ welfare is, there- fore, trapped in a cycle of ayuda or governmental temporary reliefs. The study found that the local government policies have demonstrably failed to achieve social sustainability for the lowland rice farmers.
