Abstract

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. 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. 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. 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. 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

The energy transition in Indonesia represents a complex policy challenge that intertwines political will, economic interests, and environmental imperatives. Public understanding and acceptance of this transition are largely influenced by how the media and communication actors construct narratives around sustainability, fossil fuel dependency, and renewable energy adoption. This study aims to analyze the role of media and communication strategies in shaping public policy narratives and influencing stakeholder perceptions regarding Indonesia’s energy transition. A qualitative content analysis was conducted on 150 media articles, government press releases, and public statements published between 2019 and 2024, complemented by in-depth interviews with journalists, policymakers, and energy experts. The findings reveal that the Indonesian media often frames the energy transition within political and economic contexts rather than environmental urgency, leading to fragmented public understanding. Communication strategies employed by the government emphasize national development and energy sovereignty but lack consistency in sustainability messaging. The study concludes that effective and transparent communication supported by collaborative framing between media and policy institutions is essential to foster inclusive public engagement and accelerate the nation’s shift toward clean energy.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has posed significant challenges to public health systems worldwide, revealing the strengths and weaknesses of governance structures in responding to such crises. Indonesia and Vietnam, two countries with contrasting health infrastructures and political systems, implemented various public health policies in response to the pandemic. A comparative analysis of their approaches provides valuable insights into effective governance during global health emergencies. This study aims to compare the public health governance and policy responses of Indonesia and Vietnam during the COVID-19 pandemic. The research focuses on examining the efficiency, effectiveness, and impact of these policies in controlling the spread of the virus and safeguarding public health. A qualitative comparative approach was used, involving document analysis, policy review, and expert interviews. Data were gathered from government reports, public health documents, and media sources, supplemented by interviews with policymakers and public health experts in both countries. The study reveals that Vietnam’s early and strict lockdown measures, robust contact tracing, and centralized decision-making significantly contained the virus spread, while Indonesia’s decentralized approach faced challenges in coordination and implementation, leading to higher infection rates. Vietnam’s unified, top-down approach to public health governance was more effective in managing the pandemic compared to Indonesia’s decentralized, regionally variable response. This study emphasizes the importance of strong leadership and clear policy coordination in future health crises.

Abstract

Indonesia’s decentralization and regional autonomy reforms, implemented in the early 2000s, aimed to enhance local governance and improve public services. However, these reforms have led to varying outcomes across Indonesia’s provinces, with significant disparities in the quality and accessibility of public services. This study investigates how decentralization has influenced public service delivery and governance challenges in different regions, highlighting the uneven impacts of these reforms. This research aims to analyze the disparities in public service delivery across Indonesian provinces and the governance challenges resulting from the decentralization process. The study seeks to understand the factors contributing to these disparities and their implications for regional development and equity in public service provision. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative data analysis from national and regional reports with qualitative interviews with local government officials and community leaders. The study examines key indicators of public service performance, such as healthcare, education, and infrastructure, across various provinces. The study reveals significant disparities in public service delivery, with wealthier and more urbanized provinces exhibiting better outcomes. Meanwhile, poorer and more remote regions face challenges in governance capacity and resource allocation, leading to uneven public service provision. The decentralization process in Indonesia has had mixed results, with regional autonomy contributing to greater governance flexibility but also deepening disparities in public service quality. Further reforms are necessary to address these inequities and strengthen local governance capabilities.

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

Indonesia’s implementation of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) through the BPJS Kesehatan program has been a significant step toward improving public access to healthcare. The program was designed to address long-standing issues of inequality and inaccessibility in healthcare services. However, its impact on social welfare and healthcare equity remains a topic of ongoing debate, particularly regarding its effectiveness in reducing healthcare disparities across different socio-economic groups. This study aims to analyze the social and economic impacts of BPJS Kesehatan, focusing on its contribution to social welfare and its role in promoting healthcare equity. Specifically, it examines whether the program has achieved its goals of improving healthcare access for marginalized populations and reducing financial barriers to healthcare. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative analysis of healthcare utilization data and qualitative interviews with beneficiaries, healthcare providers, and policymakers. The study evaluates the financial sustainability of the program, its reach among low-income populations, and its effects on health outcomes. The results indicate that BPJS Kesehatan has increased healthcare access, particularly for low-income groups, but challenges remain in ensuring equitable service quality and financial sustainability. While healthcare utilization has risen, disparities in service delivery persist, particularly in rural areas. BPJS Kesehatan has made notable strides in improving healthcare access and equity, but further reforms are needed to address ongoing challenges in service quality, financial sustainability, and regional disparities.

Abstract

As a middle power in international relations, Indonesia plays a pivotal role in shaping regional and global affairs, particularly within ASEAN and the G20 frameworks. Over the past decades, Indonesia has strategically positioned itself as a key diplomatic player, balancing its national interests with broader global goals. Its diplomatic actions, especially in these multilateral forums, reflect a combination of soft power and pragmatic policies that aim to maintain stability and foster economic development in Southeast Asia. This study examines Indonesia’s middle power diplomacy, focusing on its strategic role within ASEAN and the G20. It aims to assess how Indonesia uses its diplomatic leverage to influence regional security, economic cooperation, and global governance. The research also explores the challenges and opportunities that Indonesia faces in navigating these two influential organizations. A qualitative approach is employed, utilizing content analysis of official government documents, speeches by key diplomats, and relevant academic literature. Additionally, interviews with policymakers and regional experts provide insights into Indonesia’s diplomatic strategies and objectives. The study finds that Indonesia’s middle power diplomacy is characterized by active engagement, mediation, and consensus-building, which enhances its influence within ASEAN and the G20. Indonesia’s ability to bridge gaps between major powers has solidified its role as a key regional leader. Indonesia’s diplomatic strategy in ASEAN and the G20 highlights its importance as a stabilizing force in both regional and global contexts. Its middle power approach allows Indonesia to shape discussions on global governance, economic development, and security.

Abstract

The establishment of independent anti-corruption agencies (ACAs) is a primary global strategy for combating systemic corruption. Indonesia’s Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) and South Korea’s former Korea Independent Commission Against Corruption (KICAC) represent two prominent yet divergent models in Asia, both emerging from post-authoritarian transitions. Understanding their distinct institutional trajectories provides crucial insights into the dynamics of anti-corruption reform. This study conducts a comparative analysis of the institutional design, operational effectiveness, and political resilience of the KPK and KICAC to identify the determinant factors shaping their successes and challenges in fulfilling their mandates. A qualitative comparative case study approach was employed, analyzing foundational legal documents, official institutional reports, scholarly articles, and reputable media archives. The analysis focused on key variables including legal powers, degree of independence, resource allocation, and the prevailing socio-political contexts in which each agency operated. The findings indicate that the KPK’s comprehensive mandate, which includes investigative and prosecutorial powers, allowed for more high-profile enforcement actions compared to KICAC’s primary focus on prevention and policy coordination. However, this enforcement power also made the KPK a target of sustained political resistance, while KICAC faced challenges of relevance that eventually led to its institutional merger. The long-term success of an ACA depends not only on a robust legal mandate but, more critically, on sustained political support and strong institutional defenses against political co-optation. The divergent experiences of the KPK and KICAC offer vital lessons for designing and safeguarding effective anti-corruption institutions worldwide.

Abstract

The persistent issue of transboundary haze pollution in Southeast Asia, primarily caused by forest fires, has led to significant environmental, economic, and health challenges. The complexities of managing this issue are compounded by the diplomatic tensions between affected countries, particularly Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand. This study explores the governance mechanisms in place to address transboundary haze pollution and analyzes the diplomatic conflicts that arise in attempts to mitigate this shared environmental problem. By examining the role of regional cooperation, international agreements, and domestic policies, the study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of current governance structures in tackling haze pollution. This research employs a qualitative methodology, utilizing document analysis of ASEAN agreements, government policies, and academic literature, alongside expert interviews to assess the effectiveness of regional governance frameworks such as the ASEAN Haze Action Plan. The findings suggest that while regional cooperation has improved, significant diplomatic tensions persist, particularly related to the enforcement of regulations and responsibilities for pollution control. The study concludes that stronger enforcement mechanisms, enhanced regional cooperation, and the involvement of non-state actors are necessary for more effective governance of transboundary haze pollution. The research contributes to the broader discussion on environmental diplomacy and the challenges of governing global commons in Southeast Asia.

Abstract

The global race for critical minerals has transformed nickel into a strategic asset in contemporary geopolitics. Indonesia, possessing one of the world’s largest nickel reserves, has adopted a downstream policy to assert greater control over its mineral resources and strengthen national economic sovereignty. This study aims to analyze Indonesia’s nickel downstream policy from an international relations perspective, emphasizing its geopolitical, economic, and strategic implications. Using a qualitative method with a descriptive-analytical approach, the research draws on policy documents, trade data, and scholarly discourse to interpret Indonesia’s positioning within global power dynamics. The findings reveal that the policy reflects Indonesia’s attempt to transition from a resource supplier to a value-added industrial hub, balancing between China’s technological dominance and Western market access. Moreover, the policy redefines Indonesia’s bargaining power in international trade and its alignment in global supply chains for electric vehicles and renewable energy. The study concludes that Indonesia’s nickel strategy represents a form of resource nationalism adapted to 21st-century multipolar competition, offering insights into how developing nations can leverage critical minerals for geopolitical advantage.
