Abstract

The rise of China can be perceived either as a threat or as an opportunity to and for the US, mostly depending on US grand foreign policy interests and its related strategies. If the US feels comfortable living in a multipolar world in which it is considered to be an equal among the major powers, China is more likely to be perceived as a partner. However, if the goal of US foreign policy is to strengthen its position as the sole superpower or even as a hyper-power, and does not choose to recognise other major countries, then the rise of China will be perceived as a threat. Based on this underlying assumption, this article seeks to examine the exact interests of the US: Is it threatened by the rise of China or is it not? This article starts by explaining the grand theories and relating it to the research question. The next explanation examines the economic ties between the two countries. The final consideration is the possibility of military conflict given several recent occurrences, such as the Taiwan and South China Sea (SCS) dispute. This article concludes that the rise of China will threaten the interests of the US. However, it will not necessarily lead to war between them.

Abstract

Artikel ini menganalisis keterkaitan antara globalisasi dan demokratisasi di negara-negara Arab dengan Arab Spring sebagai studi kasus. Analisis kualitatif dilakukan dengan mengamati dimensi domestik, regional dan global yang melingkupi peristiwa Arab Spring tersebut. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa demokratisasi di Arab adalah fenomena lintas batas yang tidak hanya melibatkan aktor negara namun juga aktor non negara mulai dari individu dan kelompok masyarakat sampai dengan msyarakat sipil global. Namun, konsolidasi demokrasi di Timur Tengah adalah jalan yang sulit karena aktor negara diwakili para elitnya menggunakan cara-cara tidak demokratis untuk menghalangi kekuatan oposisi meraih kekuasaan. Pada saat yang bersamaan, negara-negara Barat yang memiliki pengaruh terhadap elit di Timur Tengah tidak serius dalam mendorong penerapan demokrasi. Sedangkan kelompok oposisi yang umumnya berasal dari kekuatan politik Islam dengan menggunakan media dan teknologi informasi mencoba untuk mendemokratiskan siste politik di negara-negara Arab. Mereka meyakini bahwa demokrasi adalah jalan untuk mencegah tampilnya kekuasaan tirani di negara-negara Arab.

Paper ini membahas tentang bagaimana Iran di tengah sanksi Amerika Serikat berusaha menghadapi pandemi ini. Strategi Iran dalam mengatasi pandemi dideskripsikan dengan temuan bahwa negara ini telah menyusun tindakan  sistematis untuk menghadapi wabah dengan mengkombinasikan antara optimalisasi sistem kesehatan yang sudah ada dengan langkah-langkah ekstra-ordinary yang diinisiasi oleh Garda Revolusi Islam Iran. Dalam mengimplementasikan strategi tersebut ada beberapa problem dan tantangan yang harus diatasi yaitu ketidakdisiplinan warga, ketimpangan antara jumlah pasien dan infrastruktur layanan kesehatan, kesulitan menerapkan karantina wilayah, dan sanksi ekonomi AS. Iran juga menghadapi dilemma antara menjaga supaya ekonomi tetap stabil di satu sisi, dan kebijakan yang mengikuti protocol kesehatan demi keselamatan manusia dengan konsekuensi penurunan ekonomi. COVID-19 menjadikan masyarakat Iran bersatu untuk menghadapinya ditengah sanksi dan perseteruan dengan Amerika Serikat. Selain itu, wabah ini juga menyatukan dua negara yang selama ini menjadi rival utama AS yaitu Iran dan China.Kata-Kata Kunci: COVID-19, Iran, Sanksi, Domesstik, Internasional Iran is one of the worst affected countries due to COVID-19.
