Abstract

Background: AI-mediated translation increasingly facilitates Indonesian–English communication, yet fluent outputs may obscure pragmatic failure and culturally reductive representation in institutionally produced public discourse across tourism, education, public information, and everyday digital interaction in Indonesia. Objective: This study examines how automated translation preserves interpersonal meaning, represents culturally embedded Indonesian expressions, and maintains consistency across systems and repeated generations. Method: A comparative qualitative corpus design analysed twelve Indonesian source segments from verified public institutional documents using a Pragmatic Equivalence Matrix, Cultural Representation Audit, and Cross-System Stability Test across forty-eight matched outputs. Results: Findings showed that interactional stance permeated all source segments, while audience alignment, mitigated directives, and figurative meanings created recurrent pressure points for automated translation. Cultural vulnerability centred on mudik, gotong royong, culinary naming, gift practices, and ritual symbolism, with generalisation and Anglocentric reframing compressing religious, communal, regional, and symbolic associations. Implication: Cross-system comparison indicated 56.3% strategy agreement, 60.4% lexical or framing variation, 37.5% recurrent pragmatic shifts, 31.3% repeated cultural reframing, and 70.8% severity consistency, demonstrating that stable surface quality did not ensure intercultural adequacy. Novelty: This study contributes an integrated evaluative framework that reconceptualises AI translation quality as the combined preservation of pragmatic force, cultural accountability, and cross-run stability rather than lexical accuracy and fluency alone.

Abstract

Background: Content moderation increasingly governs linguistic visibility, public participation, and institutional authority across Indonesia’s multilingual social-media environment, where standardized harm categories may inadequately recognize contextual, regional, and identity-based expression. Objective: This study examines how regulatory language, platform policies, enforcement procedures, and civil-society critiques configure relationships among language, power, and marginalization in Indonesian content governance. Method: Using a qualitative corpus-assisted design, this study analyses 26 verified public documents from 2020–2026, integrating official regulations, platform standards, enforcement communications, civil-society assessments, and comparative governance materials across Indonesian public digital communication ecosystems, through critical policy discourse analysis, moderation-process mapping, and multimodal governance analysis. Results: Findings show that harm definition and contextual classification dominate governance discourse, while linguistic accessibility and culturally situated interpretation receive comparatively limited institutional attention. Enforcement documents prioritize automated detection, takedown, and compliance, whereas explanations, appeal mechanisms, and unequal consequences remain less systematically articulated. Implication: Civil-society and international materials consequently reposition transparency, proportionality, participation, localization, and independent review as necessary correctives to concentrated state-platform authority. Novelty: This study contributes an integrated account of moderation as a distributive governance system, demonstrating that marginalization may emerge not solely from content removal but from institutional asymmetries between classificatory power, visibility control, contextual competence, and users’ capacity to understand and contest decisions.

Abstract

Background: Digital media has become an increasingly important instrument for communication, social mobilisation and development in contemporary society. Objective: This paper examines the relationship between digital media and sustainable development from a development communication perspective, with particular attention to the Nigerian context. Method: The paper adopts a conceptual review approach to examine the meaning, characteristics and types of digital media and their potential contributions to sustainable development. Results: The review establishes that digital media is characterised by speed, accessibility, interactivity, multimedia capacity, user-generated content, wide geographical reach and rapid feedback, which enable individuals, governments, development agencies and communities to disseminate and access development-related information more efficiently. Social media, websites, online news platforms, blogs, podcasts, mobile applications, video-sharing platforms and digital streaming services are identified as major forms of digital media that provide opportunities for information dissemination, public education, knowledge sharing, social mobilisation, behavioural change and citizen participation, and that contribute to the economic, social, environmental and governance dimensions of sustainable development through entrepreneurship, education, health communication, environmental awareness, public participation and access to information. However, challenges such as misinformation, the digital divide, inadequate digital infrastructure, limited digital literacy and cybersecurity concerns may constrain its developmental impact. Novelty: This paper offers an integrated conceptual perspective that connects digital-media characteristics and typologies to the economic, social, environmental and governance dimensions of sustainable development within a development-communication framework specific to the Nigerian context.

Abstract

Background: Viral social media events in Indonesia increasingly transform everyday speech into public objects of politeness judgment where humour, insult, apology, and correction are evaluated through visibility, authority, and digital citizenship. Objective: This study examines how pragmatic norms, moral judgment, and civic responsibility are negotiated in youth-oriented Indonesian digital discourse after viral controversy. Method: This study applies qualitative cyberpragmatic discourse analysis supported by corpus-assisted coding of 15 public coded segments drawn from verified news reports, contextual digital-governance documents, and scholarly references on politeness, netiquette, virality, and online morality. Results: The pragmatic profile shows that politeness after virality is organised around civic-netiquette governance, cyberpragmatic benchmarking, overt face-threat, and repair-oriented politeness. Moral judgment appears not only as blame and outrage but also as apology demand, sympathy, compensation, and restorative repair. Digital citizenship emerges as a contested orientation in which responsible governance, interpretive competence, punitive spectatorship, and relational repair compete to define acceptable participation. Implication: These findings suggest that Indonesian digital citizenship requires proportional criticism, pragmatic literacy, and ethical restraint rather than mere avoidance of impolite words. Novelty: This study advances a post-viral politeness framework that integrates cyberpragmatics, moral spectatorship, and digital citizenship within Indonesian youth-oriented online publics.

Abstract

Background: Indonesian social media has become a contested communicative arena where gendered identity is performed, evaluated, protected, and disciplined through visibility, affect, and community interaction. Objective: This study examines how gendered selves are constructed in Indonesian platformed spaces by analysing the relationship among identity performance, affective community talk, and platform governance. Method: This study applies qualitative-dominant digital discourse analysis to a purposive public corpus of 22 verified items, including institutional statements, media articles, scholarly studies, advocacy materials, and platform policy documents, with 18 identity-bearing items coded for identity, affect, and visibility configurations. Results: The findings show that gendered selves are most frequently articulated through legal-rights subjecthood, risked gendered selfhood, and marginalised identity labelling. Affective community talk is organised through solidarity, protective care, hostility, critique, moral anxiety, and institutional urgency, indicating that emotion functions as a mechanism of recognition and boundary-making. Platform visibility operates ambivalently, enabling campaign affordance and counterpublic formation while also intensifying exposure, harassment, and governance uncertainty. Implication: This study demonstrates that gendered digital identity in Indonesia should be understood as performative, affective, and infrastructural rather than merely expressive or individual. Novelty: This study advances communication scholarship by integrating gender performativity, affective publics, community talk, and platform governance into one Indonesian social media framework

Abstract

Background: Environmental activism in Indonesia increasingly depends on hashtagged digital discourse, where ecological harm, public accountability, and civic participation are negotiated through activist texts, visual materials, and platform-oriented communication. Objective: This study examines how Indonesian environmental hashtag activism constructs environmental issues as public-good claims, authorizes civic voice, and makes ecological concerns visible within platformed public discourse. Method: This study applies qualitative digital discourse analysis supported by corpus-assisted mapping of 29 publicly verifiable documents, consisting of activist texts, secondary contextual sources, and regulatory documents coded through public-good framing, civic voice, addressivity, and multimodal visibility. Results: Public-good framing shows that energy transition, ecological justice, land protection, waste governance, Indigenous stewardship, and democratic rights are articulated as shared civic concerns rather than isolated environmental topics. Civic voice is distributed across civil-society watchdogs, affected communities, citizen publics, Indigenous or local stewards, youth-oriented actors, and rights-bearing democratic subjects. Platform visibility depends on hashtag aggregation, institutional address, multimodal evidence, and circulation cues that make environmental claims searchable, attributable, and publicly recognizable. Implication: This study demonstrates that hashtag activism should be understood not as simple online amplification, but as a discursive process through which ecological harm becomes speakable, legitimate, and collectively actionable. Novelty: This study offers an integrated analytical framework linking public-good framing, civic voice, and platform visibility in Indonesian environmental digital activism

Abstract

Background: Indonesia's religious diversity increasingly unfolds within algorithmic public spaces where interfaith dialogue, moderation campaigns, minority testimony, religious hoaxes, and legal-moral disputes circulate through official websites, YouTube, podcasts, and social media. Objective: This study examines how interfaith talk constructs religious diversity in Indonesia by asking how representation frames, pragmatic stances, and platform visibility regimes organize public meanings of coexistence, conflict, and recognition. Method: This study applies corpus-assisted qualitative discourse analysis to 20 publicly verifiable corpus items, combining lexical-semantic mapping, pragmatic-stance coding, and platform-visibility analysis across primary, secondary, and contextual data. Results: Findings show that moderation-governance discourse dominates this corpus, indicating that religious diversity is frequently framed as civic responsibility, institutional order, and public stability. Dialogic-convivial and conflict-risk frames appear alongside this pattern, revealing that harmony language coexists with concern over polarization, hoaxes, interfaith marriage disputes, and minority vulnerability. Platform visibility is unevenly distributed, with institutional-authoritative discourse gaining prominence while counterpublic and influencer-mediated interfaith voices depend on platform narration, testimony, and searchable controversy. Implication: This study suggests that Indonesian interfaith communication should be understood not only as normative tolerance but as patterned digital publicness shaped by authority, stance, visibility, and contestability. Novelty: This study offers an integrated framework that connects interfaith dialogue, corpus-assisted discourse analysis, pragmatic stance, and algorithmic public sphere theory in Indonesian religious-diversity research

Abstract

Background: Indonesia's official digital communication increasingly performs national identity through multimodal arrangements of image, caption, logo, color, place, institutional voice, and platform format rather than through verbal policy messages alone. Objective: This research examines how Indonesian government and state-linked online channels construct, standardize, and circulate national identity across official visual-symbolic, cultural, territorial, and digital-governance materials. Method: Using a qualitative multimodal critical discourse design, this research analyzes 23 publicly accessible official digital items through a multimodal identity grid, a visibility hierarchy matrix, and a platformed government performance protocol. Results: Heritage, tourism, and cultural diversity formed the dominant assemblage, indicating that national belonging is most often made recognizable through curated places, landscapes, cultural motifs, museums, and regional heritage. Official visual systems and territorial-developmental narratives translated nationhood into standardized symbols, downloadable guidelines, Independence Day themes, and spatial imaginaries of Jakarta, Nusantara, and national progress. Digital citizenship appeared through literacy, safety, and child-protection frames, while participation remained institutionally bounded through polling, reuse, and campaign interaction. Implication: These findings show that online nation-making functions as controlled visibility, where diversity is displayed, standardized, and circulated through official platform infrastructures. Novelty: This research contributes an integrated framework for analyzing multimodal government communication as platformed national performance online.

Abstract

Background: YouTube has become a major infrastructure for Indonesian linguistic circulation, yet its recommendation pathways may distribute visibility unevenly across standard Indonesian, regional languages, dialectal varieties, and multilingual content. Objective: This study examines how recommendation architecture, linguistic hierarchy, and platform legibility shape the unequal circulation of Indonesian linguistic content on YouTube. Method: Using a qualitative-dominant mixed platform audit, this study analyzes 33 public YouTube videos, 10 scholarly sources, and seven contextual documents through visibility-pathway auditing, linguistic drift mapping, and metadata–multimodal legibility analysis. Results: Standard Indonesian and multilingual Indonesian content occupy stronger visibility positions because their titles, institutions, and audience cues align with national, educational, and transnational categories. Regional and minority-language content remains present but circulates more often through local, heritage, preservation, or weakly stabilized recommendation pathways. Recommendation drift further shows that several regional-language pathways move toward standard Indonesian, adjacent cultural content, or ambiguous clusters rather than sustaining linguistic continuity. Implication: These findings indicate that digital linguistic inequality should be examined through ranking, recurrence, metadata, and recommendation movement, not merely through online presence. Novelty: This study advances Indonesian sociolinguistic platform research by integrating recommendation auditing, language ideology, and multimodal platform-legibility analysis within one empirical framework for studying algorithmic linguistic visibility today
