Abstract

Researching in a post-conflict context is challenging. Methodological issues such as research ethics and data-gathering approach are critical. The researcher must have appropriate measures to collect the data. My fieldwork, spanning five months, took place in six coastal villages in Kulon Progo, Special Region of Yogyakarta, Indonesia. This site is the home to the Coastal Farmer Union (the PPLP), which rejected the government's mining plan from 2006 on. Coastal dwellers are mostly farmers who cultivate the coastal land. To obtain the data I used a qualitative research method with a single case study approach. Many challenges hinder my fieldwork, such as being expelled from the PPLP meeting, being intimidated and stigmatized, and experiencing fears, trauma, and stress. Therefore, I exercise agile data-collection strategies, be more concerned with research ethics, and be self-motivated. I utilized participant observation, snowball sampling, in-depth interviews, and political action to gain information about the coastal farmer resistance. I employed participant observation, snowball sampling, open-ended interviews, and political action to gather information on the coastal farmer resistance. I exercised political action to engage with the informants through writing and publishing their struggles in a zine organized by activists who support their struggle. This creates trust in the informants. Using these strategies, I obtained the data, and I built social capital with my informants. This paper discusses my thesis’s methodological approach and how to conduct fieldwork in a post-conflict environment.

Abstract

Public spaces are becoming increasingly open due to the dynamic development of social media, which allows citizens to communicate freely and equally. However, access gaps, algorithmic bias, and the marginalization of certain groups show that not everyone has the same opportunity to participate. This study highlights the issue of inequality in digital communication and the importance of creating an inclusive space for all groups. The objective of this research is to analyze how inclusive communication is defined and implemented on social media and in digital communities, as well as to evaluate the role of social media in shaping communities that are equitable, inclusive, and participatory. The method used is a literature review relying on a systematic literature review based on a multi-database approach, and tactically developed a combination of keywords relevant to the research topic. The study results indicate that social media platforms have great potential in democratizing participation, amplifying the voices of marginalized groups, and building cross-cultural solidarity. Serious obstacles still exist in the form of the digital divide, algorithmic bias, and experiences of online hostility. Case studies from various platforms show that the success of inclusive communication depends on strategies that are culturally sensitive, community-based, and sustainability-oriented. This research recommends the importance of cross-sector collaboration and the integration of inclusive values into digital platform design, public policy, and organizational communication strategies. These findings are expected to contribute both conceptually and practically to creating a more fair, safe, and representative digital space for all.

Abstract

Bid rigging is one of the forms of unfair business competition. One of the indications of bid rigging is similar documents. Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be used in detecting indications of bid rigging make it a challenge as well as a potential renewal of detection tools in the bid rigging case settlement. This causes the need to regulate the concept of using Artificial Intelligence to ensure the settlement of bid rigging can run effectively. The process of bid rigging case settlement also needs to consider ethics. This study is a normative juridical research using statutory approach and conceptual approach. The data used is secondary data. The data was collected by literature study method, analyzed by qualitative normative method, and presented descriptively. This study aims to know that Artificial Intelligence can be applied as a tool to detect the similiarity of bidding documents so that the commitee can immidiately identify the potential of bid rigging including at the stage of: research or monitoring of business actors and preliminary examination. The use of Artificial Intelligence technology needs to pay attention to the ethics in the implementation of Artificial Intelligence technology including inclusiveness, humanity and security, transparency, credibility and accountability.

Abstract

This research explores using artificial intelligence (AI) tools such as ChatGPT in scientific papers by students in Indonesia. The main focus of the study is on students' perceptions of ethical aspects, the risk of plagiarism, the limitations of technology, and its impact on the interaction between writers and tutors. This research uses a quantitative-descriptive approach, the data collection method done by distributing surveys. There were 112 respondents from various universities in Indonesia. The study was conducted to look at data on the use of AI in writing scientific papers. The questionnaire contains questions about the tendency to use AI in writing scientific papers, ethical considerations, the risk of plagiarism, the limitations of technology, and the impact of AI on interaction with tutors. The survey results showed that most respondents (62%) chose not to use ChatGPT to write scientific papers, while the other 38% chose ChatGPT. (84%) respondents scored four or higher on the dimension of ethical considerations. It indicates that a majority agreed or strongly agreed with the moral considerations when using ChatGPT to write a scientific paper. Regarding plagiarism, most respondents (74%) gave a four or greater score, indicating that most respondents agree or firmly agree that using a charge for writing scientific works poses a risk of plagiarism. For the ChatGp dimension of limitations, the vast majority (49%) gave neutral answers to the ChatGp language model dimension to understand and present information that matches the specific domain of the scientific work. Most students (46,01%) agree strongly on the differences in interaction with tutors in using ChatGPT for writing scientific articles. The findings of this study reveal that while AI, like ChatGPT , can improve efficiency in writing scientific papers, clear ethical guidelines are required. The risk of plagiarism and using information without listing the source is a significant concern. Moreover, the limitations of ChatGPT in understanding specific contexts must be acknowledged and overcome. The impact of ChatGPT on the interaction between authors and tutors also requires special attention, as it can affect the quality of academic guidance. Conclusion: This research affirms the importance of understanding and managing the challenges posed by using ChatGPT in writing scientific papers. Ethics, plagiarism, and technological constraints are issues to be considered. Clear guidelines and stricter policies are needed to ensure that ChatGPT supports do not harm academic integrity.

Abstract

As the development of technology in economic activities continue to forget ethical aspect, especially when carrying out economic activities in Indonesia, the problem of how ethics and its manifestations should be outlined in the legislative system that usually bias in the definition of discrimination or legal treatment continue to be an issue that must be seriously considered. In an effort to find the legal aspects of ethics, experts and academics start with fundamental questions such as what is meant by justice, utility, compatibility, abilities, egalitarianism, ideals, discrimination, etc. This this study is qualitatively researched aiming to understand and explore the meaning of ethics in digital economy activities, especially in the context of the use of artificial intelligence (AI). A holistic approach using complex interrelationship between various elements of ethics devinition, legal regulation, and technology to identify and analyze various dimensions of values in morality, transparency, and justice. The result shows that although AI has currently been enjoyed in Indonesia to perform tasks and used to enhance human capabilities, critical gaps in Indonesia’s current laws are found wihin the absence of transparency requirements for AI systems and weak enforcement of data protection. Therefore, it is argued to have risk-based regulatory approach tailored to cultural context of collectivism and propose policy measures, including public awareness campaigns and algorithmic impact assessments.

Abstract

This paper explores the emerging role of social media influencers in disaster risk communication and community resilience in Indonesia. Through a literature review of academic journals, e-books, reports, and secondary sources published over the last decade, the study synthesizes insights on how influencers shape public understanding, foster social cohesion, and mobilize collective action in times of crisis. The findings highlight three interrelated roles. First, influencers act as amplifiers of risk information, extending the reach and accessibility of disaster messages beyond institutional channels, though risks of misinformation remain significant. Second, they cultivate social cohesion and community identity by leveraging parasocial trust and cultural values such as gotong royong, reframing disasters as collective struggles that demand solidarity. Third, influencers facilitate activism and resource mobilization, transforming digital attention into donations, volunteering, and grassroots engagement, albeit often in episodic or performative ways. The review emphasizes both opportunities and challenges: while influencers democratize access and enhance engagement, their contributions may exclude marginalized groups and risk eroding trust when authenticity is questioned. The paper argues that hybrid communication models—linking influencers with government agencies, NGOs, and local communities—offer the most promising pathway for building inclusive resilience. The study contributes to the literature on digital risk communication, social cohesion, and civic activism while offering practical recommendations for integrating influencer engagement into disaster preparedness and response strategies in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study explores the ongoing debate about human rights as both a concept of social movement and a legal, institutional entity requiring organizations. The rise of digital media creates opportunities for collaboration between various stakeholders, allowing them to focus on the ultimate goal of activism: social change. We analyze the debates and implementation of digital activism related to human rights issues through a systematic literature review of 38 articles. The literature presents an ongoing debate between two conceptualizations of human rights: one as a social movement and the other as institutionalized within formal structures. This debate has implications for understanding the dynamics between organizational repertoires of activism and grassroots digital movements, particularly regarding the role of online contention. A mapping of the period from 2006 to 2023 reveals that citizen and local community initiatives more often drive digital activism than formal organizational campaigns. However, as the boundaries between these forms of activism increasingly blur, transnational collaborations encompassing NGOs and grassroots movements (including indigenous, diaspora, and citizen-led initiatives) have gained strength in digital activism. These developments suggest that sustained cooperation between organizational actors and grassroots movements is essential for achieving meaningful social change.

Abstract

The Israeli occupation of Palestine has caused significant suffering for women. The government's efforts to address this issue have been carried out by initiating a National Action Plan, which is an adoption of WPS UNSCR 1325. The government's efforts, which are perceived as unsuccessful, have led to the emergence of several non- governmental organizations, such as MIFTAH (The Palestinian Initiative for the Promotion of Global Dialogue and Democracy). The purpose of this study is to examine MIFTAH's efforts to fight for Palestinian women using digital diplomacy. Using descriptive research techniques, data was collected secondarily. Data collection techniques were carried out through library research and digital diplomacy as an analytical tool. The results show that MIFTAH's advocacy through social media (website, Twitter, and Instagram) has been carried out, although it still faces various problems, including technological limitations, disinformation caused by Western propaganda or hasbara, and dependence on digital media trends that are temporary and unsustainable. Nevertheless, MIFTAH's digital efforts continue to make an important contribution to the struggle for Palestinian women. MIFTAH's digital diplomacy is a relevant alternative for Palestine.

Abstract

The reason why this study was important to do is that this study was rarely researched, to know the impact of social media on the social dynamic of Joylada Indonesian Writers (one of the creative writing communities that had ever existed until September 31, 2024 in Indonesia), to prevent the potential data loss that can be used for case study of online writing community because the platform had significant social dynamics that are good to be learned. Even though the platform has not been operated in Indonesia and Laos since September 31, 2024 but the platform had significant social dynamics that are good to be learned. The research methods were case study, participant observation, and document analysis. The proposed approach is a qualitative approach. The major findings are social media Instagram, Facebook, and X become the place for Joylada Indonesian Writers. in Joylada's Indonesian Writer Community on Facebook, the communication pattern tends to be from Joylada with minimal interaction from the writers. Meanwhile from Joylada’s Indonesian Writer Community in X and Instagram had good social cohesion, a strong community identity, activism, and inclusive community.

Abstract

This study examines the integration of legal and technological approaches in mitigating the risks of cybercrime, with a focus on the implementation of cyber law regulations and cybersecurity technology in the Southeast Asian region. The study uses normative research methods and case studies, examining various legal policies, regulations, and technological security practices in ASEAN countries. The research findings indicate that the increasing threat of cybercrime necessitates the harmonization of cross-border legal regulations and the implementation of adaptive and collaborative cybersecurity technologies. However, there are significant challenges related to the imbalance in technological capacity and law enforcement among countries, as well as limitations in regional coordination. The study emphasizes the importance of synergy between a strong legal framework, enhanced technical capacity, and inter-state cooperation to create a secure and resilient digital ecosystem against cybercrime threats. Strategic recommendations are provided to strengthen policy harmonization, develop cybersecurity infrastructure, and enhance awareness and capacity among law enforcement agencies in Southeast Asia.
