Abstract

Paradiplomacy is an important strategy in the context of regional autonomy that allows local governments to build international cooperation to support local development. This article discusses how paradiplomacy becomes a means of reactualizing the authority of local governments within the framework of national policies, and how these activities have an impact on the effectiveness of local development while maintaining state sovereignty. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method, and highlights the practices of Surabaya City Government as a case study. Data was obtained from official documents, academic publications, international cooperation reports, and government regulations. The results of the study show that Surabaya actively cooperates abroad through sister city schemes with various world cities, producing benefits in the fields of education, environment, creative economy, and strengthening human resource capacity. However, the effectiveness of paradiplomacy is highly dependent on synergy with the central government and compliance with national regulations governing foreign affairs, as the exclusive authority of the state. The findings confirm that paradiplomacy can be a strategic local development instrument if it is managed purposefully and in strong coordination with national policies, so that it does not interfere with the principles of state sovereignty and integrity.

Abstract

Collaborative Governance is carried out in an effort to solve problems that cannot be solved by an organization such as the development of Goa Tapak Raja Tourism. The study uses a qualitative descriptive method, the data is obtained through observation, interviews and documentation studies. This study uses the Miles, Huberman, and Saldana model data analysis techniques, namely data collection, data condensation, data presentation and drawing conclusions or verification. The results of the study indicate that there is collaborative governance in the development of Goa Tapak Raja tourism between the government, private sector and community. The collaborative activities carried out are very active, providing evidence that the government, private sector and community are supporting factors in the development of Goa Tapak Raja tourism. The increase in the community's economy and tourism potential makes Wonosari Village a tourist village that encourages its people to be active in development. This helps Wonosari Village in facing the progress of the buffer zone of the Indonesian Capital City. However, in the implementation of collaborative governance, there are still problems of abuse of power rights.

Abstract

The public consumption process is starting to change, especially in online purchasing behaviour, where a TikTok Shop feature makes it easier for users to buy directly. However, there are complaints about the incompatibility of products with existing promotional content, which is a gap between the information users receive. This results in diminished trust in the information found on social media, leading to a decline in purchasing decisions. This study aims to determine how much affiliate marketing content influences improving users' purchase decisions. This study uses quantitative methods. Data was collected using questionnaires. The data analysis method uses simple linear regression analaysis by performing clasiccal assumption testing using SPSS 25 for windows. The study respondents were 110 TikTok Shop users. The Content Marketing Affiliate study results can positively and significantly influence purchasing decisions on TikTok Shop, where the beta T test value is 0,081. Only 17,2% of the variation shows that other unexplored factors are present. This research aims to help affiliates focus on honest and informative content quality. As well as contributing to the development of media sociology theory.

Abstract

Public service innovation is one of the important strategies in improving the quality of tourism services, especially in responding to tourists' information needs in a fast, accurate, and accessible manner. This article analyzes the factors that drive the success of Tourist Information Service (TIS) innovation in Yogyakarta City by focusing on two main aspects: strategic location placement and the quality of human resources involved. This research uses a qualitative approach with data collection methods through in-depth interviews with informants from the Tourism Office, Indonesian Guides Association (HPI), Dimas Diajeng, and Saka Pariwisata. The results showed that the presence of TIS posts in Plaza Malioboro and Kilometer Zero Point succeeded in reaching tourists directly and spontaneously, strengthening the visibility and presence of government services in public spaces. On the other hand, the involvement of professional and culturally representative human resources is able to create a humanist and adaptive service experience. These findings are linked to the Diffusion of Innovation and Public Value Management theories, which emphasize the important role of change agents and collaborative value in the success of policy innovation. This article recommends the need to strengthen the HR training system, integrate information technology, and develop a service evaluation system as future policy directions. The limitation of the study lies in the narrow scope of variables, so a more comprehensive follow-up study is needed.

Abstract

The phenomenon of the emergence of an empty column in the 2020 Gowa regional election reveals the practice of political pragmatism that has surfaced in Indonesia's local democracy. Nine out of ten political parties in the Gowa DPRD chose to support the incumbent pair Adnan-Kio, thus creating a single contest against an empty column. This research aims to understand the rationality behind the parties' collective support for a single candidate and examine how this political configuration reflects symptoms of symbolic democracy. Using a narrative qualitative approach, data was obtained through in-depth interviews with political party actors in Gowa, as well as other supporting documentation. The results show that support for a single candidate is based on pragmatic electoral calculations, such as the high electability of Adnan-Kio, concerns about horizontal conflict after the 2015 elections, and the absence of internal cadres who are ready to fight. Instead of carrying out the functions of recruitment and political competition, the parties strengthened the local oligarchy through elite consensus. The existence of an empty column is unable to counterbalance this dominance, making it a procedural symbol of democracy that loses its substance. The conclusion of this study confirms that party political pragmatism in the local context can weaken the quality of electoral democracy and close the space for leadership regeneration. This study recommends party institutional strengthening and nomination threshold reform as an effort to improve the local democratic climate.

Abstract

Tapis cloth, which is a traditional textile work originating from the Lampung Region, is important to preserve. National, Regional Governments, and also MSMEs are important aspects in contributing to this preservation. Social entrepreneurship is one of the efforts in cultural preservation. This study aims to reveal the orientation of social entrepreneurship in the Jejama Kham filter business in Katon State Village, Pesawaran, through a qualitative method with a literature review approach supported by field data. This research uses the theory of innovation by Schumpeter which states that economic progress and growth can be achieved with innovations made by an entrepreneur to create a change. The results of the study show that Jejama Kham's filter business is not only oriented to material profits but also fully tries to preserve Lampung filter fabric. Not only that, Jejama Kham's filter business is also in line with Schumpeter's innovation theory because in practice Jejama Kham applies many innovations in a series of stages of filter fabric production.

Abstract

The issue of money politics in local elections remains a critical challenge to the consolidation of democracy in Indonesia. Previous studies have largely focused on the institutional role of Bawaslu as the state’s formal election supervisory body, leaving a gap in understanding how local civil society organizations conduct independent oversight. This study fills that gap by examining the Gerakan Anti Politik Uang (GAPU) as a civil society movement in Berau Regency during the 2024 Regional Election. The main research question is: How does GAPU conduct democratic oversight, how effective is it, and what challenges does it face? Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which includes data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that GAPU performs oversight through public education, collaboration with Bawaslu, and social media campaigns, making it an effective but still fragile form of civic monitoring. Its weaknesses include limited resources, financial transparency, and potential elite co-optation. The study’s novelty lies in positioning GAPU as a local model of participatory democratic oversight that complements formal institutions. Practically, this research recommends strengthening cooperation between GAPU, Bawaslu, and law enforcement agencies to institutionalize participatory oversight and ensure sustainable, transparent, and independent democratic monitoring at the local level.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the supervision conducted by the Regional Inspectorate on the use of village funds in Sekolaq Darat District, West Kutai Regency. The research focuses on identifying the form of supervision, its implementation effectiveness, the challenges faced, and its impact on accountability in village fund management. This is a qualitative study using a case study method. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings indicate that the Regional Inspectorate of West Kutai has implemented supervision through the WASPADU Program (Integrated Supervision) using assurance dan consulting. The eight villages under supervision generally showed a medium level of financial risk. Common issues found include weak administrative documentation, delayed financial reporting, inactive village supervisory bodies (BPK), and poor management of village-owned enterprises (BUMK). Key challenges in supervision include limited human resources, lack of financial literacy, and internet connectivity problems. Despite these challenges, the supervision has had a positive impact on increasing accountability awareness and encouraging better village governance. The study recommends strengthening the capacity of village officials, digitalizing supervision systems, optimizing the role of BPK, and reforming BUMK management.

Abstract

This study explores the efforts of the Samarinda Seberang District Government in preserving Samarinda woven sarongs as a form of cultural heritage, addressing the gap in previous studies that mainly emphasized community participation. The urgency of this research lies in understanding how local government involvement contributes to sustaining cultural identity amidst modernization and globalization pressures. Theoretically, this study is grounded in cultural preservation and local governance frameworks, which view protection, development, and utilization as interrelated dimensions of heritage management. Using a qualitative descriptive method, data were collected through interviews, documentation, and literature review, and analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, encompassing data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that the district government’s role in cultural preservation is relatively effective through protection, by legal and environmental safeguarding; development, through innovation and diversification of woven sarong products; and utilization, by promoting them as creative economic assets and integrating them into tourism and education. This study highlights that while these efforts are significant in reinforcing regional identity and empowering local artisans economically, they remain constrained by limited resources and inter-agency coordination. The results underscore the need for sustainable collaboration between government, community, and private sectors. In broader terms, this research contributes to the discourse on local governance and cultural sustainability, emphasizing that preserving cultural heritage is not only an act of identity protection but also a strategic pathway toward inclusive and sustainable regional development.

Abstract

This study addresses the issue of bureaucratic politicization in regional head elections, a phenomenon that challenges the neutrality of the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) and threatens the quality of democracy in Indonesia. Using the theoretical perspective of patron–client relations and bureaucratic neutrality, this research explores how and why ASN becomes politically involved in the 2020 simultaneous regional head election in Barru Regency. The study applies a qualitative approach with descriptive analysis to obtain an in-depth understanding of bureaucratic involvement. The findings reveal that the bureaucracy was politicized through covert roles in success teams, the mobilization of subordinates, and the utilization of kinship networks to support particular candidates. The factors driving this involvement include a strong patron–client culture, political intervention, and position-oriented motivations. This condition not only weakens the principles of bureaucratic neutrality but also creates potential risks for the reproduction of corrupt practices in local governance. The study contributes to the discourse on bureaucratic neutrality in electoral politics and offers insights for strengthening democratic institutions in Indonesia.
