Abstract

Pervasive issues of corruption and inadequate service delivery remain significant challenges in public administration globally, undermining public trust and hindering development. While many nations have initiated comprehensive bureaucratic reforms, their efficacy requires rigorous empirical assessment. This study aims to analyze the impact of specific public administration reforms—focusing on transparency, accountability, and performance management—on levels of corruption and the quality of public service delivery. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative analysis of panel data from 20 countries over a 10-year period with in-depth qualitative case studies of two reformed public agencies. The findings indicate that reforms implementing e-governance and open data policies have a statistically significant negative correlation with corruption. Performance-based management systems were strongly associated with improved service quality metrics. However, the case studies revealed that the success of these reforms is significantly mediated by strong political leadership and the capacity to overcome institutional resistance. The study concludes that while structural reforms are effective tools, their success is contingent upon a supportive political and institutional environment, suggesting a need for context-sensitive implementation.

Abstract

Background: The establishment of Nusantara (IKN) as Indonesia’s new capital represents a monumental endeavor in urban development, explicitly aiming to be a “smart city.” However, the global challenge for smart cities lies not merely in deploying technology, but in creating governance structures that effectively integrate these digital systems with inclusive, genuine citizen participation. This research addresses the critical gap in how IKN’s smart city ambitions will be governed, focusing on the essential synergy between technological infrastructure and participatory democracy. Purpose: This study aims to develop and propose a comprehensive governance framework specifically tailored for IKN Nusantara. The objective is to conceptualize a model that operationalizes the integration of advanced technologies (e.g., IoT, AI, big data) with robust mechanisms for citizen engagement in policy-making and urban management. Methods: A qualitative, constructive research design was employed. The framework was developed through a rigorous analysis of existing global smart city governance models, a systematic review of IKN’s foundational policy documents, and in-depth, semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders, including urban planners, technology experts, and civil society representatives. Results: The primary outcome is the “IKN Integrated Governance Framework” (IGF). This framework identifies four critical pillars: (1) A unified data and technology platform, (2) Multi-channel citizen participation portals (digital and physical), (3) Data-driven, transparent decision-making processes, and (4) Adaptive regulatory oversight. The findings emphasize that a technology-first approach without embedded participation mechanisms risks creating an exclusionary, top-down city. Conclusion: The proposed framework provides an essential blueprint for IKN to avoid the pitfalls of “techno-solutionism.” By structurally embedding citizen participation within the technological architecture, Nusantara can pioneer a smart city governance model that is not only efficient and intelligent but also human-centric, resilient, and democratically accountable.

Abstract

E-government platforms like Indonesia’s “Lapor!” citizen complaint system (CCS) aim to enhance public accountability. However, a persistent gap exists between this technological promise and the bureaucratic challenges of ensuring tangible resolution, leading to digital disillusionment. This study evaluates the effectiveness of “Lapor!” and identifies institutional challenges. It analyzes quantitative performance indicators and triangulates them with the qualitative experiences of citizens and government administrators. A sequential explanatory mixed-methods design was used, involving quantitative analysis of 50,000 system records (2023-2024) and 80 semi-structured interviews with citizens and administrators. Findings reveal a low resolution rate (38.7%) and significant delays (Mean response: 14.2 days), statistically linked to inter-agency “ping-ponging.” Qualitative data identified citizen “Digital Disillusionment” and administrator “Institutional Ambiguity” as key explanatory themes. “Lapor!” succeeds as a digital intake system but fails as an accountability mechanism. The ineffectiveness stems not from technology but from unresolved institutional challenges, primarily the lack of an empowered arbiter for inter-agency disputes.

Abstract

A significant academic debate exists on whether youth social media engagement is slacktivism (replacement) or a gateway (mobilization) for traditional offline political participation. The field lacks empirical clarity on the specific mechanisms linking different types of online actions to offline behaviors. study aimed to: (1) empirically test the replacement versus mobilization hypotheses by disaggregating online behaviors, and (2) analyze the mediating role of political efficacy in the online-to-offline participation pathway. quantitative, cross-sectional survey was conducted with a nationally representative sample of 1,500 youth (aged 18-29). Data were analyzed using hierarchical linear regression and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The replacement hypothesis was refuted; no negative relationships were found. Low-cost “Expressive” participation (clicktivism) was a weak, non-significant predictor. “Organizational” online participation (e.g., creating content, coordinating groups) was the strongest, most significant predictor (\beta = .48, p < .001) of offline action. The SEM confirmed this link is powerfully mediated by political efficacy. slacktivism debate is resolved by this disaggregation. The study’s contribution is a refined mobilization model: high-effort “Organizational” online labor, not low-effort “Expression,” builds the political efficacy that drives offline activism.

Abstract

Indonesia faces escalating online financial fraud, particularly complex “Social Engineering/Mule Accounts” schemes, which strain law enforcement. A critical gap exists between the speed of these transnational digital crimes and the outdated operational capabilities of the Indonesian National Police (Polri). This study aimed to analyze the typology and high case attrition rates (unsolved cases) of online financial fraud and to critically evaluate the institutional and operational challenges faced by Indonesian law enforcement agencies in effectively investigating these offenses. sequential explanatory mixed-methods design was utilized, combining quantitative analysis of 2,150 reported fraud cases (2019–2024) with qualitative interviews (N=20) with police investigators, prosecutors, and banking compliance officers. Overall attrition stood at 68.4%, rising to 78.5% for mule account cases. The central finding is the Structural Lag Hypothesis: high attrition is a direct result of bureaucratic time lag, specifically “Jurisdictional Fragmentation” and “Slow Evidence Acquisition,” which grants criminals a critical 48-72 hour window to liquidate assets. The crime’s success is rooted in the police system’s procedural inertia, confirming that enforcement mechanisms are misaligned with the digital environment. The findings mandate urgent organizational reform, including the delegation of real-time data-sharing authority to local investigators to collapse this structural lag.

Abstract

The rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) presents both opportunities and challenges for Southeast Asian nations, particularly in terms of governance and ethical considerations. While AI has the potential to drive economic growth and innovation, it also raises concerns about privacy, fairness, accountability, and transparency. However, the governance frameworks across Southeast Asia remain inconsistent, with countries at varying stages of implementing AI ethical guidelines. This study aims to conduct a comparative analysis of AI ethical policies across five Southeast Asian countries: Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines. The research explores how these nations are addressing key ethical issues in AI governance and identifies gaps in their frameworks. A qualitative research design, using document analysis and semi-structured interviews with policymakers and experts, was employed to gather data on national AI strategies, regulations, and ethical guidelines. The findings reveal that Singapore and Malaysia have developed comprehensive and advanced AI ethics frameworks, while Indonesia and the Philippines are still in early stages of policy development. Thailand presents a balanced approach, focusing on both technological growth and social equity. The study concludes that there is a need for more coordinated AI governance in Southeast Asia to ensure responsible AI deployment that aligns with international ethical standards

Abstract

The rise of digital platforms has radically transformed the landscape of political participation, particularly among youth, with memes and hashtag activism emerging as prominent tools for engagement. This research investigates the role of these digital tools in shaping youth political behavior, examining how memes and hashtags influence political discourse, mobilization, and activism. The study aims to explore how young people engage with political issues through these platforms and whether this participation leads to meaningful real-world action. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining content analysis of viral political memes and hashtag campaigns, with surveys and interviews of youth participants engaged in digital activism. The findings indicate that while youth engagement with political memes and hashtags is widespread, it tends to remain symbolic and does not always translate into traditional forms of political participation, such as voting or attending protests. Political memes were found to foster awareness and spark discussions, but their impact on tangible political change was limited. The study concludes that while memes and hashtags play an important role in raising awareness, they often represent a form of digital activism that lacks long-term engagement and actionable outcomes. To bridge this gap, future efforts should focus on integrating digital tools with offline political engagement.

Abstract

The tension between persistent cultural traditions and the relentless onset of global modernity represents a fundamental challenge for contemporary social structures. This research addresses the problem of structural fragmentation and “cultural lag” in traditional societies as they navigate the pressures of rapid urbanization and digital connectivity. The study aims to evaluate the mechanisms of social adaptation and the renegotiation of kinship authority within transitioning communities. Utilizing a multi-sited ethnographic methodology, the research integrated participant observation and semi-structured interviews across rural ancestral homelands and urban migrant settlements. Results demonstrate that traditional social structures are undergoing a process of “re-functionalization” rather than simple erosion, with a 66% surge in digital kinship maintenance serving as a vital bridge for trans-local sociality. Findings indicate that while physical households are nuclearizing, traditional authority persists through the hybridization of meritocratic status and hereditary lineage. This research concludes that social adaptation is a proactive negotiation where tradition functions as a strategic resource for navigating modern precarity. The study provides a scalable blueprint for “culturally-embedded” policy design, asserting that the future of social resilience lies in the successful synthesis of inherited ontological security and modern technological tools.

Abstract

Social inequality and economic vulnerability remain persistent challenges in contemporary societies despite the expansion of welfare policies and social protection systems. Economic growth has not been evenly distributed, leaving significant segments of the population exposed to income insecurity, precarious employment, and limited access to welfare benefits. This study aims to analyze social inequality and economic vulnerability through a social economic perspective that examines how welfare policy design interacts with labor market structures and social institutions. The research employs a qualitative research design combining policy document analysis, secondary socio-economic data review, and interpretive analysis of welfare policy implementation. The findings reveal that existing welfare policies tend to provide short-term relief while inadequately addressing the structural drivers of vulnerability, particularly informal employment, labor market flexibilization, and institutional exclusion. Economic vulnerability is shown to extend beyond officially defined poverty, affecting near-poor and precariously employed groups who remain insufficiently protected by current welfare frameworks. The study concludes that welfare policy effectiveness depends not only on resource allocation but also on institutional alignment with contemporary economic realities. A social economic approach is essential for understanding inequality as a dynamic and structural phenomenon, and for informing welfare reforms aimed at enhancing inclusivity, resilience, and long-term social protection.

Abstract

Digital technologies have profoundly reshaped contemporary social life, altering patterns of interaction, identity formation, and cultural transmission across societies. From an anthropological perspective, these transformations cannot be understood solely through technical or economic explanations, but require attention to meaning, practice, and power embedded in everyday digital engagement. This study aims to analyze social transformation in the digital age by examining how technology functions as a culturally embedded social environment that mediates relationships, values, and symbolic expression. The research employs a qualitative design grounded in interpretive anthropology, combining digital ethnography, semi structured interviews, and analysis of online cultural artifacts to capture lived experiences within hybrid online offline spaces. The findings reveal that digital platforms reconfigure social organization, redistribute cultural authority, and intensify reflexive identity practices while simultaneously sustaining elements of cultural continuity. Digital interaction emerges as a site of negotiation where tradition and innovation intersect rather than as a force of unilateral disruption. The study concludes that social transformation in the digital age is best understood as a dynamic and context dependent process shaped by human agency and cultural interpretation. These results highlight the continued relevance of anthropological approaches for interpreting technological change and offer insights for research on digital society.
