Abstract

Civil Society Organization (CSO) involvement in conflict resolution remains necessary. According to the qualitative research on three CSOs, when they first dealt with conflict, they were creative in resolving conflicts by sheltering communities from violence, fostering cohesion between competing parties, and having dialogue at the local and national levels. CSOs have attempted to maximize their potential and networks for negotiations to end in a peace treaty. Unfortunately, not all CSOs could carry out this mission due to restricted resources and competencies. This study unveiled that the success of CSOs in conflict resolution still required the state’s involvement as a source of pressure on the disputing parties and rooted support from civil society.

Abstract

This article analyzes the Revolusi! Indonesia Independent exhibition (2022) at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam as a case study of memory diplomacy, demonstrating how museums function as non-state actors in international relations. The exhibition, which aimed to foster reconciliation between the Netherlands and Indonesia, became the center of controversy over the curatorial treatment of the term Bersiap. The study employed a tripartite framework to examine this case, integrating museum diplomacy, memory politics, and postcolonial International Relations (IR) theory. The first lens highlights museums as cultural actors projecting national identity and contributing to soft power while navigating asymmetrical power relations. The second lens situates the exhibition as an arena of norm contestation, where hegemonic Dutch-Indo victimhood narratives clashed with Indonesian decolonial counter-memories. The third lens interprets the controversy through postcolonial diplomacy, revealing how unresolved colonial legacies complicate bilateral reconciliation. Drawing on qualitative methods, the article argues that the Rijksmuseum became a contested diplomatic arena rather than a neutral space of cultural dialogue. The findings underscore that museums have been deeply embedded in power struggles over identity, soft power, and historical memory, making them critical sites for understanding the intersections of heritage, trauma, and diplomacy in postcolonial international relations.

Abstract

This research examined the application of Safety Tips for Disaster as a digital diplomacy tool employed by Japan to ensure the safety of Indonesian citizens (WNI) during natural disasters. This research utilized qualitative studies to analyze official documents related to the Safety Tips application, including publications from the Japan Tourism Agency (JNTO), journal articles, relevant disaster response policies, and interviews with relevant representatives. Findings highlight the application’s effectiveness in delivering timely information and early warnings, facilitating coordination between Japanese authorities and Indonesian representatives, including the Embassy in Tokyo and the Consulate General in Osaka, for crisis management. Although digital diplomacy has been widely analyzed in the context of public diplomacy and social media, its application in disaster management remains underexplored. The Safety Tips for Disaster application emerged as a model that Indonesia could adopt to strengthen its digital diplomacy strategies, thereby improving the safety and readiness of its citizens during natural disasters in Japan.

Abstract

After the COVID-19 pandemic, Southeast Asia has become a lucrative epicenter of illegal online gambling across borders. Illegal online gambling has emerged as a threat that harms the national interests of Southeast Asian nations. On the other hand, Indonesia is one of the Southeast Asian nations that has been struggling with the issue of illegal online gambling. Those harms encompass not only national economic loss, but also the socio-economic well-being of the citizens. This research analyzed the role of state actors in dealing with illegal online gambling compared to the offshore operations of illegal online gambling as transnational actors. The analysis of the securitization theory was taken under the framework of the Copenhagen School. Through the qualitative literature review method, this research discovered that the Indonesian government has played a pivotal role in combating illegal online gambling by securitizing it as an existential threat that harms its referent object. Hence, due to jurisdictional constraints, their effectiveness throughout their operation remained questionable. However, alternative solutions, such as strengthening international collaboration and communication, must always be assured.

Abstract

The increasing global decarbonization efforts, particularly through the European Union’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (EU-CBAM), on imported goods have created growing pressure on highly carbon-intensive sectors, such as the steel industry, to adopt greener production methods. This carbon pricing mechanism may constrain the economic growth and development of countries with limited technological, infrastructural, and financial capacities. Existing studies have evaluated CBAM’s effectiveness in achieving its objectives and potential negative consequences through econometric modeling; however, the insights gap regarding steel industries in Southeast Asia and the political power relations of structural inequalities embedded in these transitions remains. This study employed a mixed-method approach, combining comparative qualitative analysis with secondary quantitative data based on World-System Theory (WST) and Global Production Networks (GPN) framework to analyze how CBAM affects China’s, Vietnam’s, and Indonesia’s steel industries based on their structural positions in the world system. The findings revealed that CBAM serves as an instrument of structural domination, reinforcing global inequalities, as non-core countries, including non-EU-oriented exporters, face increasing challenges in adapting to evolving low-carbon standards. To avoid systematic exclusion, the research emphasizes the significance of advancing national climate agendas through the acceleration of domestic emission trading systems (ETS), the development of green technological capabilities, and the enhancement of industrial policies to maintain competitiveness under shifting global market standards.

Abstract

This study investigated the adoption of the Quick Response Code Indonesian Standard (QRIS) by Indonesian tourists in cross-border transactions while travelling to Malaysia and Singapore. Using the mixed-method design combining observations, interviews, and surveys with 134 respondents, the data were analyzed through ANOVA to identify the significant differences in adoption level. The findings revealed that Indonesian tourists encountered more technical barriers when using QRIS abroad compared to domestic transactions. Despite these challenges, QRIS demonstrated strong potential as a cross-border payment tool supporting financial inclusion and sustainable tourism in Southeast Asia. The study highlights the role of digital payment in reducing reliance on cash, thereby contributing to the green economy objectives by minimizing resource use and environmental cost. However, limited interoperability, varying digital literacy, and SME’s resistance remained obstacles to broader adoption. Indonesian tourists using QRIS in Malaysia exhibited significantly higher scores (M = 182.01) compared to Singapore (M = 173.75), F(1, 132) = 12.847, p < 0.001, suggesting that service consistency outweighed infrastructure sophistication. Policy recommendations included strengthening regional cooperation, improving infrastructure reliability, and promoting awareness of ecological benefits. This research provides novel insight for policymakers and tourism stakeholders to foster an integrated and sustainable digital payment ecosystem in the region.

Abstract

Halal certification has evolved from a mere administrative requirement into a strategic instrument of public diplomacy and soft power. As the world’s largest Muslim-majority country, Indonesia has the potential to leverage halal certification to enhance the competitiveness of its food products in international markets. However, at the subnational level, particularly in Riau Province, which shares direct borders with Malaysia and Singapore, its implementation faces significant challenges. This research examined the role of halal certification as a tool of soft power diplomacy in enhancing the competitiveness of Riau’s food products. Current discourse on halal diplomacy tends to concentrate on the national level, leaving the role of subnational actors such as local governments and MSMEs underexplored. To address this gap, the research employed a qualitative descriptive-analytical approach. Data were collected through document analysis and in-depth interviews with the Halal Product Assurance Organizing Body (BPJPH), the Assessment Institute for Foods, Drugs, and Cosmetics of the Indonesian Ulema Council (LPPOM MUI), local government agencies, and MSME food producers. The analysis revealed that halal certification has served a dual role, acting as both affective soft power through Islamic values and cultural appeal, and as normative soft power, providing global legitimacy and consumer trust. Accordingly, halal certification serves as a medium of public diplomacy, strengthening Indonesia’s position within the global halal economy. Theoretically, the research extends the application of soft power to subnational contexts. Practically, it recommends policies for facilitating certification, harmonizing standards, and building MSME capacity.

Abstract

This study analyzed the public solidarity movement in Indonesia in responding to the Palestinian crisis, especially since Israel’s attack on Gaza in October 2023. Both the Indonesian Government and the public have consistently supported Palestine through various means, including political support and humanitarian assistance. Concerning the public’s role, even though there is an active contribution, these actions are mostly still carried out by Muslim communities only. Apart from that, the actions carried out are still not integrated, resulting in not optimal scale of action and scope. Using a qualitative approach, this study explored the factors influencing the less-than-optimal Indonesian public movement on the Gaza issue by collecting data from various documents and other relevant sources and analyzing them using a political structure theory approach to the study of social movements. This study disclosed that Indonesia has an excellent opportunity to be actively involved in various intensive solidarity actions and to have a global impact in supporting Palestine, given its open political structure, elite support, and the absence of state repression. However, the absence of a solid, cross-organizational national alliance, including Islamic movements that focus more on social and humanitarian issues, exhibits the non-optimal potential for a significant movement from the Indonesian public. This study contributes to enriching discussions about the global solidarity movement for Palestine by drawing on specific theories in social movement studies, particularly in the context of Indonesia, a Muslim-majority country that should play a greater role in advocating for the ongoing Palestinian issue.
