Abstract

Indonesia’s airspace security represents a strategic dimension of national sovereignty, given its position as the world’s largest archipelagic state with vast airspace intersected by dense international flight routes. The transfer of the Jakarta Flight Information Region (FIR) from Singapore to Indonesia created opportunities for strengthening sovereignty while also posing significant challenges in coordination, regulation, and technological readiness. This study aims to analyze the existing conditions of stakeholders, evaluate the effectiveness of their roles, and propose an ideal governance model for safeguarding Indonesia’s airspace. Employing a descriptive qualitative method with a case study approach, the research collected data through literature review, in-depth interviews, and documentation from relevant institutions, analyzed inductively with source and theory triangulation to ensure validity. The findings indicate persistent issues such as overlapping authority, limited radar technology, and weak inter-agency communication, which reduce the responsiveness of cross-agency coordination to airspace violations. Nonetheless, positive developments are observed through the establishment of inter-agency coordination forums and central government commitment to sovereignty reinforcement. The study concludes that an effective governance model requires multi-level collaboration that integrates military, civil, and international diplomatic dimensions supported by modern technology and robust regulation. Recommendations include enhancing inter-agency coordination, developing an integrated radar system, improving human resources through international-standard training, and institutionalizing a sustainable governance framework responsive to global aviation dynamics. This research contributes both academically and practically to public policy formulation in managing Indonesia’s national airspace.

Abstract

Traditional performing arts in rural tourism destinations are increasingly threatened by declining participation, limited institutional support, and weak digital visibility, creating an urgent need for adaptive strategies that sustain cultural continuity in the digital era. This study examines how digital storytelling can enhance cultural resilience and empower local communities in revitalizing the Can-Macanan Kadduk performance, a centuries-old traditional art from Arjasa Tourism Village, East Java. The research aims to analyze the role of narrative-driven digital media in strengthening community participation, intergenerational knowledge transfer, and cultural identity. Employing a qualitative descriptive case study design, data were collected through in-depth interviews with cultural practitioners, Pokdarwis members, and local digital creators, supported by observations and content analysis of Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. Findings reveal that digital storytelling increases cultural visibility, fosters cultural pride, improves collaboration between youth and elders, and transforms traditional performances into dynamic cultural narratives accessible to wider audiences. The study also shows that participatory digital practices encourage shared ownership of heritage, bridge gaps between tradition and modernity, and support community-driven governance of cultural tourism. These results demonstrate that digital storytelling functions not only as a communication tool but also as a mechanism of empowerment that strengthens cultural resilience by enabling communities to adapt, innovate, and sustain their intangible heritage. The study concludes that integrating digital literacy, collaborative governance, and creative content development is essential for ensuring the long-term sustainability of traditional performing arts within Indonesia’s evolving digital tourism landscape.

Abstract

This study addresses the limitations of state-centric legal systems in responding to increasingly complex social, political, and institutional challenges, which often result in legal policies that are formally valid but substantively unjust. It aims to explain how the systematic integration of governance principles can strengthen the legitimacy, fairness, and effectiveness of legal policymaking. Employing a normative juridical method, the research analyzes legislation, policy documents, jurisprudence, and scholarly works using statute, conceptual, and comparative approaches to examine how transparency, participation, accountability, and the rule of law are embedded in the formulation and implementation of legal policies. The findings show that when governance principles guide lawmaking, legal policy shifts from a unilateral exercise of state authority to a participatory and collaborative process involving multiple actors, thereby enhancing legal certainty, protecting public interests, and promoting social justice. The analysis also reveals that governance based mechanisms such as public consultation, judicial review, independent oversight bodies, and open-data regulations help reduce principal agent problems, curb corruption risks, and align legal outcomes with societal expectations. The study concludes that legal systems are better able to meet societal needs, maintain public trust, and support equitable development when governance principles are consistently institutionalized throughout the policy cycle, from agenda setting and drafting to implementation and evaluation, positioning governance theory as a foundational paradigm for designing responsive, accountable, and sustainable legal frameworks.

Abstract

This study evaluates how the Malang City Government integrates accountability-based governance and sustainable development within the implementation of the Government Agency Performance Accountability System (SAKIP) in 2024. The study aims to (1) assess the effectiveness of SAKIP and the Electronic-Based Government System (SPBE) in strengthening governance performance, (2) analyze their linkage with key social, economic, and environmental outcomes, and (3) formulate an integrated interpretation of Malang City’s 2024 performance as a model of sustainable urban governance. A qualitative descriptive design with systematic document analysis was employed, drawing on the 2024 Government Agency Performance Report (LKjIP), the Local Government Implementation Report (LPPD), the 2024 AKIP Evaluation Report, regional development plans and complementary statistical and regulatory sources. The findings show that Malang’s performance achievement reached 101.51%, with a SAKIP score of 81.8 and an SPBE index of 4.24, accompanied by an increase in the Human Development Index to 83.42, economic growth of 5.93%, and an Environmental Quality Index of 61.76, supported by innovations in creative economy development, human resource improvement, digital public services, and community-based environmental management. The study concludes that the synergy between accountability instruments, digital transformation, and sustainability-oriented policies has positioned Malang City as a promising model of integrated urban governance, while highlighting remaining challenges related to digital inclusion, fiscal capacity, and long-term impact measurement that must be addressed to secure more equitable and resilient development in the future.

Abstract

This article examines the politics of recognition in agrarian conflict affecting the Lom (Mapur) Indigenous community in Bangka Regency, Indonesia, in the context of post-extractive tin mining and oil palm expansion. It asks how the Lom community responds to its status as a legal subject after agrarian conflict and what opportunities and challenges recognition politics offers for resolving extractive disputes. Methodologically, the study employs a qualitative case study combining document analysis, participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and focus group discussions conducted in Air Abik and Pejam hamlets, analyzed using Miles et al.’s interactive model and Axel Honneth’s theory of recognition. The findings reveal a multidimensional crisis of recognition, in which vertical conflict with the state and corporations and horizontal fragmentation within the community jointly undermine the domains of love, rights, and solidarity. At the same time, grassroots initiatives especially the revitalization of customary councils and the “One Lom Tribe” discourse have begun to restore trust, rebuild collective identity, and articulate bottom-up aspirations for recognition. However, fragmented legal pathways, sectoral ego, and weak political commitment at the regional level continue to constrain substantive recognition. The study concludes that only an integrated recognition regime that strengthens customary institutions and harmonizes national and local regulations can secure the Lom’s customary territories and support sustainable socio-ecological governance.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to analyze the effect of education expenditure, health expenditure, Islamic bank financing, and economic growth on the HDI of Indonesian provinces during the period 2013–2023. Using a quantitative approach, the study employs panel data regression on secondary data from 33 provinces obtained from BPS, OJK, and the Ministry of Finance. The most appropriate estimation model is selected through the Chow and Hausman tests, which both support the use of a fixed effect model, followed by multicollinearity and heteroscedasticity diagnostics to ensure model validity. The results show that education expenditure, health expenditure, Islamic bank financing, and economic growth each have a positive and statistically significant impact on HDI, while jointly explaining approximately 85% of its variation across provinces. These findings suggest that increased education and health budgets effectively enhance human capital through longer schooling, better health outcomes, and higher life expectancy, whereas expanded Islamic bank financing and robust economic growth raise adjusted per capita expenditure and overall welfare. The study concludes that optimizing human development in Indonesia requires a coherent policy mix that strengthens pro-poor and pro-human capital public expenditure, deepens Islamic financial inclusion, and sustains inclusive economic growth, particularly in lagging regions, in order to narrow HDI disparities and support long-term sustainable development.

Abstract

Urban governance in rapidly transforming cities is increasingly challenged by declining civic engagement, social polarization, and the commodification of public spaces, yet governance debates often overlook how spatial and architectural conditions shape the possibility of meaningful participation. This study aims to conceptualize how the architectural design of public spaces functions as a mediator of good urban governance by embedding principles of transparency, inclusivity, participation, and accountability into the material fabric of the city. Employing a qualitative descriptive design with a literature based approach, the research synthesizes 40 core sources selected from 75 initial publications spanning governance studies, urban design, spatial theory, and architecture. Through qualitative content analysis and thematic synthesis, the study identifies key linkages between spatial design elements such as openness, accessibility, flexibility of use, co-management, and adaptive reuse and governance outcomes related to civic trust, social cohesion, and participatory decision-making. Case illustrations from cities including Copenhagen, Bandung, Seoul, Cagliari, Luanda, and mid-sized Indonesian cities show that participatory and inclusive public space design can enhance collaborative governance, while exclusionary or heavily securitized spaces undermine it. The analysis also highlights constraints such as unequal participation, bureaucratic silos, limited resources, and risks of tokenistic engagement. The study concludes that architecture should be treated as governance infrastructure, public spaces must be planned, designed, and managed through participatory frameworks, co-governance mechanisms, and justice-oriented design guidelines so that governance principles are materially experienced in everyday urban life.

Abstract

Fuel access in archipelagic regions is not only a logistical issue but also a governance problem involving spatial equity, regulatory compliance, safety assurance, and supply-chain resilience. This study examines mini fuel stations as last-mile distribution infrastructure in non-SPBU areas of the Riau Islands, Indonesia. A qualitative design was employed using in-depth interviews, field observation, and document review. Informants were purposively drawn from mini-station owners, service users, and village officials, and the evidence was triangulated across sources and methods. Thematic coding identified six interrelated dimensions: accessibility, support for local economic activity, legal status, operational safety, quantity and quality assurance, and dependence on upstream supply. These themes were subsequently organized through SWOT analysis and converted into TOWS strategies. The findings indicate that mini fuel stations reduce spatial barriers and sustain everyday mobility and productive activities, but their public value is constrained by uneven registration, variable safety practices, weak transaction traceability, and supply vulnerability. The article proposes a graduated governance model that combines operator formalization, risk-based inspection, authorized procurement, digital transaction records, and co-governance among BPH Migas, local governments, suppliers, operators, and user groups. The study contributes by reframing mini fuel stations from an informal retail phenomenon into a last-mile energy-governance problem in an archipelagic setting.

Abstract

Digital transformation has become an institutional requirement for local governments, yet the expansion of digital reporting, licensing, supervision, and public-service systems also creates operational, informational, organizational, and accountability risks. This study examines how risk management is embedded in the digital governance of the Lingga Regency Fisheries Office, an agency operating in an archipelagic jurisdiction where dispersed settlements, uneven connectivity, and cross-agency dependence intensify the consequences of digital disruption. A qualitative document-analysis design was employed. The evidence corpus comprised the agency’s 2024 Government Agency Performance Report, applicable national and regional regulations, organizational documents, statistical publications, and peer-reviewed studies on digital government, data governance, information security, and enterprise risk management. Data were reduced, coded, compared, and synthesized into a risk register, an indicative maturity profile, and a phased governance roadmap. The findings reveal a performance–risk paradox. The agency reported aggregate programme achievement of 99.71%, with several output indicators reaching or exceeding their targets, but the available documentation does not demonstrate a fully institutionalized digital-risk management cycle. Risk identification and operational control are visible in fragmented forms, whereas continuous monitoring, incident response, tested recovery, explicit risk ownership, interoperability governance, and systematic workforce development remain underdeveloped or insufficiently documented. The study argues that high output achievement should not be treated as evidence of digital resilience. It proposes a risk-based digital governance model that connects Indonesia’s Electronic-Based Government System, performance accountability, One Data principles, information-security controls, and inter-agency coordination.

Abstract

Lingga Regency occupies a distinctive place in Indonesia's cultural landscape as the historical core of the Riau-Lingga Malay world and as a local government that formally positions itself as Bunda Tanah Melayu. This study evaluates the congruence between cultural-governance policy and publicly documented performance in Lingga. A qualitative evaluative case-study design was applied through structured document analysis of national legislation, Lingga Regency Regulation No. 1 of 2020, official statistical publications, intangible-cultural-heritage designation records, peer-reviewed studies, and comparative governance literature. The analysis introduces a Cultural Governance Policy-Performance Congruence (CGPPC) framework covering mandate clarity, coordination, safeguarding continuity, participation, performance evidence, and archipelagic accessibility. The findings indicate a pattern of strong normative commitment and visible recognition outputs, particularly in cultural-heritage safeguarding and national intangible-cultural-heritage designations, alongside uneven public evidence on long-term outcomes, cross-island access, community decision rights, data integration, and learning-oriented performance measurement. Sixteen Lingga cultural works were designated as Indonesian intangible cultural heritage in 2019, while all four Riau Islands works designated in 2022 originated from Lingga. These achievements demonstrate institutional capacity for recognition, but recognition counts alone cannot establish continuity of transmission, participation quality, or public value. The study proposes a cultural governance performance compact linking policy mandates to outcome indicators, evidence stewardship, and adaptive coordination. It concludes that Lingga's next governance challenge is not policy creation, but converting a strong cultural mandate into traceable, inclusive, and longitudinal evidence of cultural value.
