The "Glocal Society Journal" is dedicated to exploring and understanding the intricate dynamics of glocalization, with a primary focus on the intersection between global and local dimensions within contemporary societal issues. We seek to provide a comprehensive platform for scholarly discourse and interdisciplinary research that delves into the complex interplay of forces shaping our interconnected world. Our scope encompasses a diverse array of topics, including but not limited to glocal governance, cultural glocalization, economic dynamics, social movements, environmental challenges, educational practices, health and well-being considerations, migration patterns, technological and innovative adaptation, political landscapes, linguistic nuances, conflict and peace studies, social justice issues, sports and leisure glocalization, and the impact of digital technologies on local social structures. "Glocal Society" aims to distinguish itself as a trailblazing journal by fostering an inclusive space that transcends traditional disciplinary boundaries, providing a unique forum for the exploration of glocal dynamics. We welcome original and innovative contributions that bridge the gap between global and local perspectives, offering insights into the evolving challenges and opportunities faced by glocal communities. By publishing cutting-edge research, theoretical frameworks, and practical insights, "Glocal Society" aspires to be the primary resource for scholars, researchers, and practitioners navigating the complexities of our ever-evolving glocalized world.

Abstract

The book review reveals the issue of modernity from James Ferguson’s Expectation of Modernity: Myths and Meanings of Urban Life on the Zambian Copperbelt, which is heartbreaking and heartbreaking.  This well-written and thick seven-chapter book is based on Ferguson’s ethnographic fieldwork in Copperbelt, Zambia, between the 1970s and 1990s. The book introduced what is called the ethnography of decline, a way of understanding people’s point of view about their own experience of social, cultural, and economic ‘advance’ and ‘decline’. It is a very hard task for ethnographers since they must deal with the situation instead of working with people. Related to that, Ferguson also explores a concept called ‘abjection’, a process of being thrown (down) aside, expelled, or discarded. Using this concept, he claims that modernity is quite similar to colonialism, which brings the dichotomy of ‘the West’ and ‘the rest’ where the West is ‘modern,’ and the rest is ‘savage’. Thus, the globalization of the economy brought about by modernization has been experienced as abjection and disconnection, concluding that modernity is no more than a myth that would never exist.

Abstract

This study provides a comprehensive scientometric analysis to examine the incorporation and impact of Marxist theory and class-based analysis within the broader academic knowledge base. By utilizing Scientometric data from renowned scientific databases covering the last seventy years, we can pinpoint important patterns, notable authors, essential publications, subject groups, and relevant keywords relating to Marxism and class analysis. These findings show increasing interest in the topic, especially after the 2000s. This analysis emphasizes the importance of theoretical study and the working class as topics that often appear in recent research. Additionally, we analyze the distribution of research output and country collaborations, observing substantial clustering in the Americas and the United Kingdom. Despite increasing interest in this topic, our analysis reveals gaps in existing research, namely in the practical implementation and integration of different disciplines. Based on these observations, we suggest a study plan that prioritizes the need for more detailed empirical investigation, examination of social class dynamics in non-Western settings, and the incorporation of Marxist analysis into current topics such as globalization and the working class. This agenda aims to increase the significance and practicality of class-based analysis in understanding contemporary socio-economic phenomena.

Abstract

This article seeks to employ bibliometric analysis to offer a thorough picture of the research environment concerning local, global, and glocal contexts. Amidst the increasing globalization, it is imperative to deeply understand the interplay between local and global contexts and the "glocal" concept. This study investigates the current body of literature on these three areas by assessing patterns of publishing, trends in research, and collaborations among scientists. Using data from famous academic databases, we have found noteworthy keywords, notable authors, and esteemed publications pertaining to this topic. The research indicates a significant rise in the quantity of publications regarding local, global, and global contexts during the previous two decades. This research also illustrates a shift in focus from localized contextual examinations to a more inclusive approach that combines global and local perspectives. These findings are anticipated to offer scholars and practitioners a novel understanding of the dynamics of interaction between local, global, and glocal contexts. Moreover, these discoveries will be a significant reference for forthcoming investigations in this field.

Abstract

The Rohingya Crisis in 2017 has called for widespread condemnation of Myanmar. However, reports on this event have only escalated tensions. This paper explores the practice of peace/war journalism by an international media, Aljazeera, in reporting such a crisis. To do so, this research utilizes Lynch’s peace journalism framework as a standard of conflict-sensitive media. This paper argues that evidence of peace journalism does exist, but other factors imply that war journalism is still strong. Such practice of war journalism has (1) disregarded the crisis' global ramifications; (2) put a narrow context that ignores Myanmar's democratic struggle; (3) portrays conflicting parties' religious relationships as victim-perpetrators; (4) dehumanized Buddhists, monks, and the Myanmar people in general; (5) lacked accounts from grassroots peacemakers; and (6) created an excessive emphasis on elite-level negotiation, particularly in light of pressure from world leaders.

Abstract

As a program that can support a healthy economy, CE has an essential role in changing the face of cities. CE is considered to have a close relationship with the SDGs, SDG 12 Responsible Consumption and Production. The application of CE in different cities also allows the emergence of various policy models, each of which seeks to answer the city's unique challenges. This research seeks to map the state-of-the-art of CE, SDG 12, and cities. The research method used for the mapping is a systematic literature review using Mendeley's website as a database. This research finds that CE and SDGs are correlated through the norms of sustainable development but that the relationship between CE and sustainable development is itself a tool-and-target relationship. In addition, through best practices from 6 cities that have implemented CE, three types of determinants can be identified that can drive the transition to CE, multi-actor symbiosis, restoration and preservation of public spaces, and internalization of CE cultural values. Makassar City has much potential through Sustainable Development-based policies such as "Five Star TPA" and "Lorong Garden".

Abstract

Europe is the region with the highest incidence of anti-Muslim discrimination worldwide, primarily driven by policy issues, according to the 14th report on Islamophobia by the OIC, which documents Islamophobic attacks and anti-Muslim hatred between December 2020 and January 2022. The influence of European Islamophobia extends globally, contributing to what is known as the globalization of Islamophobia. This trend is significant as it illustrates the spread of anti-Muslim sentiment across the political spectrum on a global scale. This study aims to explore the development and manifestation of Islamophobia in Europe and analyze its impact on the rise of global Islamophobia. Utilizing a qualitative approach, the research was conducted from August 2023 to August 2024, with data gathered through a literature review. The paper argues that Islamophobia in Europe is expanding and manifests through six key indicators: discrimination, hate speech and online hatred, Islamophobic policies, right-wing political movements, verbal and physical attacks, and insults directed at the niqab, hijab, and burqa. Key factors influencing the global spread of Islamophobia include the Great Replacement conspiracy theory, white supremacist manifestos, right-wing parties promoting Islamophobic discourse, and the adoption of Islamophobic policies by other countries.

Abstract

Starbucks a global coffee company and a giant in the coffee industry, has faced significant challenges impacting its business and trade activities worldwide due to being a target of boycott movements arising from the Israel-Palestine conflict. These boycotts, highly prevalent on social media, have led to a decline in Starbucks' profits globally, particularly in Indonesia. Despite the widespread boycott movements, some consumers continue to patronize Starbucks and choose it as their coffee destination. This study aims to explore how consumers perceive the Starbucks brand and identify the factors influencing their decision to continue choosing Starbucks amid the boycotts. The research employs a mixed-methods research (MMR) approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methods, utilizing surveys, observations, in-depth interviews, and secondary data analysis such as documents and supporting information. The selection of respondents and informants was conducted purposefully based on specific criteria. The findings reveal that Starbucks Dprima's consumers are predominantly individuals seeking a comfortable space to complete academic or professional tasks. The factors driving their continued patronage include the comfort and satisfaction they experience, along with the appealing facilities and services provided by Starbucks. The consumers' views on the boycott are generally neutral or opposed, as they believe clearer and more comprehensive information is necessary before accepting boycott-related claims. Additionally, personal consumer perspectives on the boycott issue play a key role in their decision to continue visiting and choosing Starbucks Dprima.

Abstract

The U.S.–India Civil Nuclear Agreement, signed in 2008, marked a significant turning point in India's nuclear development. This landmark agreement ended decades of international isolation for India’s civilian nuclear program, enabling access to global nuclear technology and fuel markets. By fostering collaboration with major nuclear suppliers, the deal aimed to boost India's nuclear energy capacity while reinforcing its non-proliferation commitments. This study aims to show that the U.S.–India Civil Nuclear Agreement plays a crucial role in the development of domestic energy capacity by increasing nuclear energy capacity, while also enhancing India's global status by strengthening its international legitimacy as a country with a peaceful nuclear program free from NPT restrictions. Additionally, the agreement opens access to advanced reactor technology and global markets, strengthens strategic capabilities through dual-use technology, but also presents challenges such as legal barriers, social resistance, and geopolitical risks from neighboring countries.

Abstract

Poverty remains a multifaceted issue with economic, social, political, and cultural dimensions that significantly hinder development, particularly in Baubau City, Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia. Despite slight fluctuations in poverty rates, persistent structural challenges limit progress in poverty alleviation efforts. This study investigates the local government's role in mitigating poverty through empowerment programs and targeted policies. Utilizing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected via interviews, observations, and literature reviews, analyzed thematically, and triangulated to ensure validity. The findings highlight the government's regulatory, dynamizing, and facilitative roles, supported by policies like Mayor Regulation (Perwali) of Bau-Bau City Number 13 of 2023. Strategies include reducing the economic burdens of the poor, empowering communities, and developing micro-enterprises. However, challenges such as inconsistent poverty data and infrastructural limitations persist. This study emphasizes the need for sustainable, inclusive approaches to poverty reduction and provides actionable recommendations for refining existing programs.

Abstract

The civil war that erupted in Yemen in 2015 caused the creation of the worst humanitarian crisis in Yemen's history, and this humanitarian crisis is also categorized as the worst humanitarian crisis in the history of modern humanity. The coalition of Arab countries became one of the actors involved in Yemen's civil war after receiving a request for military intervention from President Hadi over the threat of a coup carried out by the Houthis. The coalition of Arab states then carried out a military operation into Yemeni territory aimed at eliminating the threat posed by the Houthis and restoring President Hadi's government as the official government of the Yemeni state. However, the military operation carried out by the coalition of Arab countries is considered the beginning of the worst humanitarian crisis in Yemen's history. This research then aims to analyze the impact of the involvement caused by the coalition of Arab countries on the humanitarian crisis in Yemen's civil war.
