Abstract

This study examines the regional security dimension of the India-China water dispute over the Brahmaputra in South Asia. It also seeks to understand how China is considered part of South Asia rather than an outsider. Drawing on theories of hydro-politics, realism, liberalism, and regional security complexes, this article investigates whether the water dispute is merely an extension of the border conflict or a manifestation of deeper, structural rivalries. Additionally, it explores the hegemonic tendencies exhibited by both nations as upper riparian states. A qualitative approach has been employed to gather and analyse the data. The findings of this study indicate that the water dispute has disturbed the peace and stability of South Asia. It also finds that China is part of South Asia owing to its geographical location and colonial history. The study concludes that, although the risk of large-scale warfare remains low, effective collaboration is vital for regional stability. This study recommends that India and China should collaborate to resolve their border and water disputes.

Abstract

The province of Gorontalo, Indonesia, has long been a destination for diverse ethnic groups arriving through maritime trade. Though often mentioned in articles and official sources as one of key contributors to the archipelagic spice route, no research has identified Gorontalo as a spice-producing region. Moreover, the Indonesian Ministry of Education and Culture has a long-term national program called, “Jalur Rempah,” which includes several maritime route points including the Gorontalo spice route. Thus, this study sought to discover why Gorontalo served as an important node on the spice route leading to how Islamic encounters and cross-cultural exchanges shaped its society. Using qualitative methods including in-depth interviews, observation, and literature review with historical and synchronic approaches, this research found that Gorontalo’s spice route functioned not only as a channel for commodities but also for ideological and cultural exchange. In this case, Islamic kingdoms such as Ternate, Gowa, and Bone played vital roles in spreading Islamic teachings. Moreover, Gorontalo’s cultural arts evolved under the influence of religion and foreign cultures, reflecting the region’s openness and deep respect for guests. From these characteristics, this study demonstrates Gorontalo’s unique adaptability to global interactions along the spice route and contributes to reinforcing the recognition of the spice route as a world cultural heritage.

Abstract

This study critically examines how the discourse of megathrust earthquake threat in Java, Indonesia, is constructed and circulated by CNBC Indonesia’s online news coverage. Given Indonesia is extremely vulnerable to the earthquake, this study explores how fear narratives are constructed and disseminated, revealing a discursive landscape for signaling panic, uncertainty and technocratic authority. Employing Van Dijk’s social cognition framework and Deleuze’s rhizomatic theory, the research reveals how information about the megathrust danger multiplied in fragmented, nonlinear ways that created dispersed nodes of public anxiety. The findings indicate that the media’s use of apocalyptic rhetoric and sensationalist framing transforms scientific caution into a hyperreal spectacle, distorting the actual meanings of official statements from The Meteorology-Climatology, Geophysics Agency and producing public “Panic Territories.” This distortion sustains the dominance of expert-driven discourse whilst marginalizing local community knowledge and active public participation. The study argues for a more reflective and participatory model of disaster journalism that emphasizes public preparedness, psychological resilience, critical literacy, and inclusive communication practices. By shifting disaster narratives away from fear based clickbait toward empowerment and preparedness, media can serve as agents of social learning and collective safety rather than amplifiers of panic.

Abstract

Although the overall electoral support for Muslim-based parties in Indonesia has been relatively stable since the Reformasi, the 2024 election represents a critical moment in which the PPP failed to pass the parliamentary threshold. This divergence raises the question: why did PPP break down while other major Muslim-based parties (PKS, PKB, PAN) persisted? Employing a qualitative comparative approach, this paper contends that electoral performance is shaped by the constitutive interplay of governance capacity and strategic adaptation. We show that PKS pursues bounded adaptation and relies on relatively high governance capacity to maintain loyalty among its core constituencies; PKB mixes established governance with high strategic adaptation in order to use NU based networks and presidential coattail effects; and PAN pairs relatively high governance capacity and aggressive demographic segmentation. By contrast, the demise of PPP is attributed to low or incoherent governance capacity, which renders its adaptive strategy sporadic and lacking credibility. Theoretically, this article shifts the analytical focus from static party institutionalization to dynamic organizational capability. It also argues that religious identity becomes an electoral asset when it is managed through a balance between internal governance and adaptation, with institutions strong enough to withstand the shocks of strategic pragmatism.

Abstract

In Malaysia, postpartum depression (PPD) is often associated with social stigma. This study examines mothers’ perceptions of postpartum depression and identifies the barriers they face in dealing with stigma and one of the responsibilities of society using qualitative methods. Using thematic analysis to do the research, this study focuses on six mothers from urban communities in Klang Valley, Malaysia, who were selected according to a snowball sampling procedure. There are three new findings of the research that were reported, the awareness of postpartum depression remains limited to affected mothers who are often stigmatized because they are emotionally weak. The second is postnatal depression, which affects mothers’ emotional stability, marriage, work performance, and housekeeping jobs due to a lack of support from the family, and social stereotypes also play an important role. The third study indicates that mothers develop coping mechanisms, such as emotional support from partners and family members and two-way communication, to reduce stigma and maintain their mental health. The conclusion of this study shows that awareness regarding postpartum depression is still low, and that there were negative views, which may limit the social support and treatment needed. Therefore, interventions are needed to help mothers facing postpartum depression.

Abstract

This study examines efforts to enhance the competitiveness of Indonesia’s fisheries industry as a preparatory step for implementing the Indonesia-European Union Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement. This research is a qualitative study presented descriptively through a literature review, drawing on Collaborative Governance theory and the endowment factor concept in the Heckscher-Ohlin model to analyze stakeholder collaboration in maximizing fisheries products as a leading export commodity to the European Union. The findings indicate that fishery products have not yet contributed optimally to Indonesia’s GDP. Marine capture fisheries and their derivative products account for approximately 7.9% of the GDP. Meanwhile, Indonesia and the European Union have agreed on the IEU-CEPA framework, which opens up significant opportunities for expanding fisheries exports. To take advantage of this opportunity, the Indonesian government needs to strengthen collaboration with multiple stakeholders, particularly in improving the competitiveness of fisheries products. However, several challenges persist, including weak fisheries governance, security concerns, ecosystem degradation, limited access to capital and technology, and difficulties in aligning stakeholder interests. This study recommends a holistic and collaborative approach involving the government as a regulator and facilitator, academia as innovators, the private sector as investors, communities as key implementers, and the media as information disseminators.

Abstract

Conflict dynamics in the Papua region have been ongoing for a long time and continue to this day. The government’s conflict management efforts have not yielded significant results, and the conflict tends to escalate. This study aims to examine the dynamics of conflict and conflict resolution based on local wisdom following the establishment of the new autonomous region (DOB) of Papua Pegunungan Province. This study uses a qualitative research type through an ethnographic approach with the research target being the Hubula Tribe Community of the Jayawijaya Regency. The research results show that the dynamics of post-DOB expansion conflicts between the government and the community are related to customary land disputes in the construction of government centers conflicts between communities often lead to inter-tribal wars triggered by territorial boundary issues, adultery, and acts of violence. This study concludes that conflict resolution using the local wisdom approach of the Hubula tribe is carried out through traditional deliberation, stone burning traditions, traditional fines, and arrow breaking rituals as a symbol of post-conflict peace. The indigenous people’s institution (LMA) plays a strategic role as a mediator in conflict resolution. The government can utilise the values of local wisdom and involve the LMA as an alternative mechanism for conflict resolution.

Abstract

The Karabakh conflict has remained on the agenda of the international community for 30 years. During the Second Karabakh War, Türkiye supported Azerbaijan by all means, while Russia sided with Armenia. This reignited the historic rivalry between them. Azerbaijan’s victory in the war also positioned Ankara as the superior power in the Türkiye Russia rivalry in the Caucasus. The primary aim of this study is to measure the material power capacity of the two countries using objective criteria and identify the factors that provide Türkiye with an advantage in this competition. This quantitative study systematically compares the material power capacities of Türkiye and Russia using measurable and internationally recognized indicators. The findings suggest that the elements enhancing Türkiye’s regional influence are not limited to military capacity alone, and that diplomatic and economic factors also play a decisive role. In this context, this study concludes that the Turkish-Russian rivalry during the Second Karabakh War provides an example of how intermediary variables such as technological innovation, political commitment, and strategic interpretation can influence the balance of influence, even when structural indicators indicate different hierarchies.

Abstract

Climate change is a transnational problem, that requires localized collective actions. Compared to China and the US which contributes 27% and 11% to global carbon emissions, respectively, Pakistan contributes less than 1% but is among the top ten most vulnerable countries to climate catastrophes. These threats are further escalated by the country’s highly centralized governance structure. These study focuses on the decentralization of climate policies in Pakistan, followed by a polycentric governance system, and highlights its importance in responding to the dynamic nature of climate change in the country. Grounded in Polycentric Governance Theory, a qualitative, deductive research design way employed, relying on primary and secondary data sources. The study reveals that after the 18th amendment in Pakistan, the responsibility related to climate policies has increased on the subnational government; however, its effect remains limited due to constant economic constraints, weak coordination among different governmental bodies, and dependency on international climate finance. This demonstrates that polycentric governance offers a commendable framework for making strong climate responses by involving local actors and providing region-specific solutions. This study concluded policymakers might prioritize intergovernmental coordination, expand subnational budget capacity and use carbon sinking mechanisms as a major tool for reducing climate change impacts.

Abstract

Alberta’s identity as an attractive province for migrants is shifting as an increasing number of migrants choose to leave the province amid crises and changing perceptions of opportunity. For some, reverse migration represents hope for stability; for others, it mirrors dismay over disappointments and declining livelihoods. This study explores reverse migration trends, whether based on hope for a better future or dismay owing to various factors. These research was conducted among Muslim migrants from Alberta, Canada. Data for this study were collected using ethnographic research methods in Alberta from June 2024 to October 2024. Data collection tools and techniques included participant observation, in-depth interviews, and conversational interviews. Responses were obtained from 20 informants. The findings revealed that reverse migration is not necessarily towards the home country only; rather, many Muslim immigrants have chosen other countries as their next homes. This study concludes that several factors, including economic, political, social, and environmental factors, as well as quality of life, and pull factors such as cultural familiarity, sense of belonging, identity, and family connections, are the driving factors in promoting immigrants’ decisions to leave Canada.
