Abstract

Abstract            Nuclear weapons, since their emergence in 1945, have become a global cause for concern. In the realm of international politics, two primary viewpoints have arisen. Firstly, there is the perspective that supports nuclear proliferation, asserting that every nation's freedom to possess nuclear weapons can create global stability. Secondly, there is the viewpoint that opposes proliferation, with the belief that the possession of nuclear weapons should be restricted to prevent an arms race and nuclear warfare. In this context, the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) emerged in 1970 with the goal of preventing the spread of nuclear weapons and promoting the peaceful use of nuclear energy. While many countries, including the five nuclear-armed states, have joined the NPT, North Korea became a member in 1985 but later withdrew in 2003. North Korea, with its nuclear policy, has stirred international tensions. They view nuclear weapons as a tool to safeguard their sovereignty and maintain their presence in international politics. From a neorealism perspective, the concept of the balance of power becomes relevant, with concerted efforts to balance power as a means to achieve power equilibrium and prevent the dominance of superpowers. North Korea conducted a series of nuclear tests from 2006 to 2017, resulting in strong reactions from the international community, including sanctions imposed by the United Nations. North Korea believes that nuclear weapons will provide them with significant leverage and protect their sovereignty. In the context of North Korea's nuclear proliferation, the neorealism approach and the concept of balance of power offer insights into the dynamics, their influence on other nations, the responses of the international community, and their impact on global stability.Keywords: Proliferation, Nuclear, North Korea, Neorealism

Abstract

The bilateral relationship between Bangladesh and the United States has undergone significant shifts over the years, shaped by complex interactions between democratic ideals, human rights concerns, and geopolitical interests. This study examines the multifaceted dynamics of Bangladesh-US relations, focusing on analyzing the extent to which US foreign policy prioritizes democracy, human rights, and geopolitical considerations. The study draws upon a comprehensive literature review of scholarly works, official documents, and expert analyses related to the historical context and critical milestones in Bangladesh-US relations. The present study employs a mixed-methods technique to incorporate qualitative data, which contributes to a comprehensive comprehension of the intricate aspects that shape United States foreign policy choices concerning Bangladesh. Using case studies and examining policy initiatives, this analysis assesses the concrete results of democracy and human rights measures, elucidating their influence on the bilateral relationship. Furthermore, the research explores the role of geopolitical considerations in shaping US engagement with Bangladesh. This analysis aims to evaluate the tangible outcomes of democracy and human rights measures by employing case studies and analyzing policy efforts. Through this approach, the study seeks to shed light on the impact of these measures on the bilateral relationship. This report provides a comprehensive overview of the Bangladesh-US relationship, seeking to establish whether the US foreign policy strikes a delicate balance between promoting democracy and human rights while addressing its geopolitical interests.

Abstract

The recent decrease in deforestation suggests a success in global effort of halting it, yet the question on in the agency of United Nations Forum on Forests (UNFF) remains. Do these changes occur due to UNFF’s facilitation? To examine this, this paper utilizes Principal-Agent theory proposed by Hawkins et al., (2006) to explore UNFF’s autonomy and discretion and its role in halting deforestation. It will first analyse the historical and relational foundation of UNFF as an international organization (IOs) and then define the meaning of ‘problem-solved’ in terms of forest issue. It will then evaluate policy instruments and powers that UNFF holds using Martha & Finnemore’s argument on the power of IOs. This paper argues that UNFF is serving as a forum for global forestry governance. It faces challenges due to differing national interests, limited discretion and significant role of NGOs in influencing discussions and advocating for sustainable forest management. Tensions persists between developed and developing nations in forestry issue, thus UNFF plays the role of collaboration and coordinating agents through Collaborative Partnership on Forest (CPF). It possesses limited role as arbitrating and enforcing agent due to Non-Legally Binding Instruments (NLBI) preferences of member states. However, UNFF possesses the power in terms of diffusing norms accepted by members, that halting deforestation is non-negotiable.

HIV/AIDS menjadi penyakit menular yang sangat mengkhawatirkan, karena menyebabkan tingginya angka kematian di Indonesia setiap tahunnya. Untuk mencapai keamanan manusia bagi masyarakat Indonesia, diperlukan upaya intensif dalam menangani permasalahan HIV/AIDS. Oleh karena itu, Indonesia bermitra bersama Global Fund untuk mendukung penanganan penyakit HIV/AIDS. Kemitraan ini berlangsung pada periode 2018-2020 dan dikenal sebagai New Funding Model continuation (NFMc).

Abstract

This research aims to provide information related to Indonesia's norms, identity and response to the Myanmar conflict. The discussion will focus on the causes and role of Indonesia. Indonesia has an interest in this conflict, apart from the 1945 Constitution in maintaining world peace, the issue of this conflict is also within the Southeast Asian region which if not resolved quickly will affect regional security. The problem of Rohingya refugees in surrounding countries will become a new problem for the region, including Indonesia. The number of Rohingyas killed and displaced due to this conflict until 2019 has always shown a significant increase. This research uses a descriptive qualitative research model approach based on constructivism theory in analyzing problems empirically. . This theory emphasizes that state identity is shaped by values and norms that exist in structural (international norms) and subsystemic (local norms) areas.  The qualitative approach used in this research is a type of literature study whose data sources are analyzed from books and journals related to research on the Indonesian government's diplomacy efforts in mediating humanitarian conflicts in Myanmar. The findings of this study indicate that Indonesia through its diplomatic relations will not remain silent to see this conflict drag on.Keywords: Indonesian Response, Myanmar Conflict, Constructivism, Diplomacy
