This study of international non-governmental actors (INGO) and peacebuilding has sparked a lively discussion because INGOs play a significant role in the peace process. On the other hand, INGOs with their own values frequently fight with one another or with the values of the local community. This study tries to comprehend the peacebuilding strategies of The Catholic Relief Service (CRS) and Muhammadiyah in conflict zones, particularly Timor-Leste and Mindanao. This study employs a qualitative approach with document analysis. The findings of this study indicate that CRS and Muhammadiyah play a significant role in promoting peace through the following efforts: (1) reducing human suffering by seeking the safety of conflict victims; (2) promoting peace through a democratic, non-violent, and participatory process by focusing on the safety of women and other vulnerable people; and (3) post-conflict reconstruction by restoring the lives of people affected by conflict in various aspects.

This study discusses the implementation of improvement strategies in the global value chain (GVC) for coffee SMEs in Indonesia. With the background of Indonesia's position as a major coffee producer in the world, this study explores the challenges faced by SMEs in achieving maximum added value, broad market access, and effective governance. The research method uses a qualitative descriptive approach through literature analysis, secondary data and primary data related to the coffee value chain and its improvement strategies. The results show that value-added improvement strategies can be achieved through product, process, and function innovation, as well as product differentiation. Certification such as Geographical Indications helps increase sales value, although benefits for farmers are still limited. Increasing market access involves vertical and horizontal collaboration for diversification and development of marketing networks, including participation in international exhibitions. The role of the government is very important through the development of infrastructure, regulations, and certification support, but needs to be strengthened to reduce the imbalance in the distribution of added value. In conclusion, partnerships involving the private sector, government, and NGOs are key to encouraging the sustainability of coffee SMEs in the GVC. Recommendations include strengthening governance, increasing farmer capacity, and collaboration strategies to expand export markets and increase the competitiveness of Indonesian coffee in the global market. Keywords: Upgrading, Global Value Chain (GVC), Indonesian Coffee SMEs.

Southeast Asian countries, situated at the heart of the Indo-Pacific, are increasingly exposed to intensifying great power competition between China and the United States (US). According to Balance of Threat (BoT) theory, states are more likely to align tightly with a less threatening power in response to rising threats characterized by a rival's aggregate power, geographical proximity, offensive capabilities, and aggressive intentions. Based on these indicators, BoT would predict stronger alignment between Southeast Asian countries and the US to balance against the perceived threat from China. However, alignment behavior in the region varies, suggesting the need for closer empirical scrutiny. This study reexamines BoT theory in the Southeast Asian context through a structured comparative empirical analysis of ten countries between 2000 and 2021. The findings reveal that while BoT’s core prediction holds in some cases, alignment outcomes are mixed. Thus, the theory receives only partial support in explaining Southeast Asian states’ responses to China’s rise. Keywords: Balance of Threat theory, Southeast Asia, alignment behavior, great power competition, US-China rivalry, Indo-Pacific, threat perception, security cooperation, comparative analysis, regional security

Why has Indonesia, a former military dictatorial regime, only commissioned the official Truth and Reconciliation Commissions (TRC) later than South Africa, Brazil, Uruguay, Chile, and South Korea? This article compares how the six democratic governments in Africa, Latin America, and East Asia deal with human rights violations committed by officials of previous authoritarian regimes. I posit a structural explanation for the variation in the establishment of a TRC in former authoritarian countries that underwent pacted transition or authoritarian-initiated transition. Using a qualitative approach, I argue that a combination of the level of external and internal security threats facing the country, and the military tary doctrine which is adopted by the military determines the timing of the establishment of a TRC. Understanding the timing of the establishment of the TRC is important as victims and their relatives need closure over past human rights violations and the delay in the establishment of it can increase distrust to the government. Keywords: Indonesia, Truth and Reconciliation Commissions, Civil-Military, Transitional Justice, Democratization, Military-Civilian Relations
