Abstract

As one of countries which has the large tropical forests in the world and the largest in ASEAN, Indonesia has been facing serious deforestation problems. Eventhough some scholars have found causes of  the deforestation and have tried to give solutions, however, identifications of deforestation causes are still worth studying as the deforestation still becomes an important issue in Indonesia. This study tries to extend and explore the causes of deforestation in Central Kalimantan, one of Provinces in Indonesia which has been facing the highest deforestation problem caused by many factors. This study applied a qualitative approach. Data were collected by using interview and focus group discussions. It involved about 27 informants representing 14 organizations including goverment officers and non-governmental organization leaders such as WALHI,AMAN, Save Our Borneo, Yayasan Bentang Borneo, Ampuh, TUK Jakarta, Greenpeace, SIEJ, SPKS, Sawit Watch, Forest Watch Indonesia, Mongabay, Institute Dayakologi, LINK-AR Borneo, WWF and Academia as informants. The study found that as a socio political construct, deforestation in Indonesia emerges at the intersection between the biophysical changes of the politically defined forest and the political economic struggles around access and control over forestland resources by domestic and international actors. Hardly is a given issue, the term deforestation itself is still subject to debate as state definition of deforestation is continuously being challenged by the definition developed by civil society members. Deforestation, in many of its aspects, is also associated with governance failure and complex political economic settings that shape its emergence.

Abstract

For over 18 years, Indonesia has undergone democracy in every aspect of government decision making. After new order (orde baru) regime fell, Indonesia has changed several regulations to implement democratic principle, such as direct elections for Presidential; Gubernatorial and also local leaders. However, there still few challenges faced by Indonesia. One of those challenges is related to human behavior, which is political participation. In democratic country, one of the primary requirements is voluntarily active participation. Voluntarily means an action without any pressure. Without voluntarily act on participation, a country cannot be listed as democratic country. As an attempt to predict voluntarily participation on politics, psychology has came up with the concept of psychological orientation on politics which represented by three dimensions, political efficacy; political interest and political knowledge. However, different political situation and system among countries are the reason why there is no universal measurement of psychological orientation towards politics. This study aims to construct an instrument as an attempt to measure psychological orientation towards politics in Indonesian context. As an attempt to produce the best items and theoretical model, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) is applied to examine the contribution of each item towards dimensions. CFA analysis finally generates 21 final items for Psychological Orientation towards Politics Scale that can be applied in Indonesian context.

Abstract

According to Indonesia Village Law 6/2014, village fiscal transfer policies provide exclusive funds from the national government to the Dana Desa, adding to the existing amended contribution funding from regency to village. This paper discusses how this fiscal transfer policy for rural development affects local authority transfers to villages and residents? participation in development. By using a case study method in Banjar Regency, South Kalimantan Province with qualitative surveys in villages and interviews, this article makes a number of remarks. Firstly, the paper comments on the authority transfer from the regency to the villages in public works, agriculture, pre-school education, and community-based health services. The projects discussed are characterized as infrastructure priorities, community-based operations, and non-complex. Banjar Regency agencies have accepted this authority transfer because of budget limitations for village-level projects. The authority transfer has resulted in changes in the Regency?s character from a village-level public service provider to an adviser. Secondly, the paper discusses residents? participation in village development. Village fiscal transfers are used mostly in village development projects, where local preferences are accommodated; accordingly, the community participates in the planning and executing of those projects. However, accountability still must be improved despite the perception of the corruption indication assumption being low.

Abstract

Personal political branding becomes an important element in political contestation under the new direct democracy in Indonesia. In the male-dominated political atmosphere, it is interesting to analyze creation and development of personal political branding by female politicians. This paper explores stories of the two female politicians, each a candidate for the district head of Gowa (Tenri) and North Luwu (Indah) in the 2015 direct local election in South Sulawesi Province, where a strong political dynasty is the primary feature. This is qualitative research employing feminist research methodology by interviewing the two female politicians. This paper reveals that the use of femininity element in the tagline SAYANG IBU (love your mother) as Tenri’s personal political branding contains of what I call ‘gender risk’ which disadvantaged her. Within a strong political dynasty feature of South Sulawesi which is patriarchal, her opponent created a counter narrative to weaken her and pointed out centrality of a male politician. On the other hand, a successful female politician candidate for the district head of North Luwu, Indah, used PINTAR (smart) as her personal political branding which did not resemble her femininity and did not exclusively target women. By doing so, this paper offers different findings from those of the previous research which suggest that femininity can help all candidates to stand out. In a strong political dynasty feature, it is important to pay attention to the subconscious element such as patriarchal ideology which often plays or is used to weaken or against female politicians.

Abstract

Abstract This paper presents the process of Chinese outward direct investment in Europe. A remarkable feature of the Chinese cross-border business expansion is the essential role of government in the internationalization of Chinese MNCs which was supported by official policy instruments, including the famous “go global” strategy that encouraged thousands of Chinese firms to invest abroad. It argues that the driving motive of Chinese firms to go abroad aimed at acquiring new skills, advanced technology, brands and supply chains that would enhance their competitive advantage in international as well as domestic markets. To this end, the Chinese investment in Europe has generally targeted few but major economies, namely Germany, UK and France. Merger and acquisitions has been the leading market entry mode resulting in huge takeovers characterizing Chinese investment in Europe. It is also apparent that the internationalization process of Chinese business companies did not follow the traditional Uppsala model as psychic distance and experiential knowledge didn’t play a role. Nevertheless, it is evident that the path-dependency of Chinese expatriates in European countries has made it difficult to learn and adapt to the local work environment that exhibits diverging and contrasting cultural values. This huge cross-cultural gap, often portrayed in the literature as “culture conflict”, constitutes the biggest challenge that Chinese companies face, in their international operations in general, and could undermine their effectiveness in doing business in European countries in particular.
