Abstract

Drug trafficking is one of globalization's rotten fruits that the United States (US) has struggled against as it has witnessed 4 waves of opioid epidemic. Chief among the trafficked drugs is fentanyl that caused more than 100.000 in the last two years. Its crossboundary nature, how they originate from outside the US, makes it intricate to solve as it would require a holistic approach. Against that backdrop, this study seeks to provide a security understanding of the issue and its geopolitical repercussions for the US. The writers employ the qualitative research method that entails the use of both primary and secondary data procured from the internet. The article begins with an elaboration of how fentanyl trafficking poses a threat to the security of the US. Here, fentanyl trafficking falls under the non-traditional threat with a far-reaching security implication, especially in the national and human sense. Following that, the geopolitical repercussions of this transnational threat is discussed. Among them is how the issue has riled up the US relations with Mexico and China. Finally, an overview of the existing means to deal with the problem is provided along with some suggestions as to the path ahead.

Abstract

Counterterrorism professionals in Indonesia face significant pressures due to the demanding nature of their work. This study was aimed at investigating stressors among Indonesian counterterrorism personnel. A mixed-methods research design was employed in the study. The results demonstrate that counterterrorism professionals, including national intelligence operatives, encounter stress chiefly from role expectations, workload, and insufficient social support. Different demographic groups view certain stressors as the most challenging. Furthermore, statistical evidence indicates that employment in security and national defence, or broader intelligence sectors significantly affects personnel's occupational stress levels. The study may help in developing resilience capacity-building strategies.

Abstract

Infectious disease outbreaks remain a persistent threat to global health, social stability, and national security. In recent years, the intersection of modern technology and public health has introduced transformative tools to enhance outbreak anticipation, surveillance, and response. This review aims to explore how technological innovations particularly artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and digital health platforms can be strategically leveraged to strengthen national preparedness against emerging infectious diseases, with an emphasis on the intelligence sector’s role. Utilizing a systematic literature review approach, the study draws insights from scholarly articles, policy documents, and case studies published over the past ten years. Findings show that integrating technology into surveillance and early warning systems significantly improves detection and mitigation capabilities. However, challenges persist in data privacy, interoperability, and resource disparities, especially in developing countries. This paper highlights the importance of multisectoral collaboration, investment in digital infrastructure, and policy innovation to ensure that technological advancement translates into effective public health outcomes.

Abstract

Pancasila plays a role in maintaining national stability which can be achieved if the Indonesian people feel safe and peaceful and the integrity and sovereignty of the Indonesian state are protected from internal and external threats. Radicalism and terrorism are internal threats. Exposure to radicalism can cause a person to commit acts of terrorism. According to the data, it is known that the perpetrators of acts of radicalism and terrorism consist of the unemployed, unskilled workers, independent entrepreneurs, employees/employees, professionals, civil servants, public officials and the military. This research will examine how the role of intelligence in dealing with the threat of radicalism among Indonesian Army soldiers. The research method used is a qualitative approach. The results of the study show that the threat of radicalism among TNI AD soldiers is a real threat and there are 5 (five) TNI AD soldiers who are exposed to radicalism and are involved in criminal acts of terrorism. The exposure of TNI AD soldiers to radicalism is caused by internal and external factors, such as ideology and the economy. The role of intelligence to prevent this can be in the form of monitoring, close surveillance and profiling strategies for Indonesian Army soldiers. Apart from that, it was also carried out in the form of emphasis in the form of issuing a telegram from the TNI Commander regarding the prevention of radicalism and cooperation in preventing and overcoming radicalism with the BNPT and related agencies through the SKB 11 Ministers. The detection of TNI AD soldiers who were exposed to these radical views was through identifying symptoms of radicalism in TNI AD Soldiers by searching for evidence in the form of profiling them. Besides that, the internal situation of the institution was restored. After carrying out the detection, security is carried out in a preventive form by screening all TNI soldiers as well as security in a repressive form by efforts to develop mentality, deradicalization, and socialization of planting Pancasila ideological values.

Abstract

This study explores how the United Liberation Movement for West Papua (ULMWP) uses digital communication to promote Papua independence narratives and gain attention in international forums. Drawing on Prunckun’s Threat Analysis Theory (2015), this research examines ULMWP’s online propaganda strategies by assessing its intent, capability, and the vulnerabilities it targets. Using an explanatory qualitative method, data were collected from interviews with practitioners and secondary sources published between 2019 and 2023. The findings show that ULMWP consistently works to build global support while undermining Indonesia’s legitimacy through emotionally charged narratives focused on injustice and human rights. These efforts are implemented through coordinated digital activism and proactive engagement with international media, while uses a diplomatic mechanism. According to Ring’s Threat Level Classification (2009), ULMWP’s efforts fall between serious and critical categories given their impact on public perception and foreign policy challenges. The study suggests that stronger intelligence strategies are needed to maintain national cohesion in the digital era.
