Abstract

Resource-based theory (RBT) has gained its maturity as a theory, and it has heavily shaped the path of research in the organization and management field. However, RBT has been criticized due to its quality and deemed to be a theory that is tautological. This study explores the evolution of resource-based theory (RBT) using the Thomas Kuhn cycle. Employing a critical literature review approach, this study identifies all articles related to RBT in the organization and management field from 1959 to 2021 and finds 141 articles. The findings have demonstrated that RBT has evolved, and it has become a better ‘puzzle solver’ as it provides a more comprehensive theoretical lens to analyze broader phenomenon of organization, particularly concerning its competitive advantage. Nonetheless, the study also sheds some light on the potential weaknesses of RBT. Inclusiveness of RBT is suggested to be a sign of tautology as the theory has a very broad definition of resources hence can embrace all phenomena in the field of organization’s strategic management. In addition to that, scholars find difficulty to define or operationalize several key concepts in RBT leading to obstruction in its ability to be tested empirically. And the vagueness of concepts creates a tautology problem in RBT that the theory cannot be verified or falsified. Thomas Kuhn suggests that theories can be developed, thus, despite its current weakness, RBT can still be improved by increasing accuracy of its key concepts. From the analysis, this study develops a theoretical recommendation regarding the use of RBT theory particularly in public administration research.

Abstract

The provision of public services in various regions in Indonesia began to be integrated into the public service mall (PSM) or Mall Pelayanan Publik (MPP), an expansion of the Office of Investment and One-Stop Integrated Services (DPMPTSP). The evaluation of public services showed a significant increase in the public service achievement index (Kemenpan RB, 2021). However, this evaluation was based on the perspective of the public as service users, whilst other crucial perspectives, namely internal processes, employee learning, and growth, and finance, are yet to be considered. For the comprehensive performance evaluation, a Balanced Scorecard (BSC) was employed in this study. This study aims to measure the performances of 11 MPP using the scorecard, in which the scores can be used as a basis for improvement and reinforcement of MPP in the future. By using a mix method approach, the results found that two aspects, finance and employee learning and growth, experience the lowest score. Meanwhile, two other dimensions (service quality and internal processes) obtained optimum results. These findings bring a main recommendation to revisit the nomenclature of MPP: expected to adopt data and authority integration, improve management clarity, and enhance organization capacity and capability.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic is a multi-faceted crisis with a very high public health risk. The more difficult the pandemic, the greater emphasis must be placed on effective government communications. It will play a major role in responding to the pandemic successfully. Meanwhile, ineffective government communication has resulted in widespread public uncertainty and major blunders in reacting to escalating health dangers have had potentially devastating health and social consequences for society, as well as protracted the outbreak. This paper conducts an empirical and comparative analysis of the determinants of government communication strategies in responding to the COVID-19 pandemic in Korea and Indonesia. It aims to explain the success of Korean public communication compared to Indonesia. This study uses a literature review along with a case study using comparable variables. The determining factors used are initial conditions, institutional capacity, transparency, effective coordination, and collaboration between stakeholders. Evidence shows that Korea is better off across all determinants. The lessons from the experience of government communication strategies in responding to the pandemic in these two countries can be used to teach other countries what to do and not to do in government communication services in the midst of a pandemic situation.

Abstract

This article discusses strategic planning implementation of the public sector within Indonesia’s hierarchical administration system. Many studies on public sector strategic planning have been carried out both at the national and local levels. However, the disclosure of various obstacles and challenges in the implementation of strategic planning at the local level is still partial and sectoral. A qualitative strategy was used to explain this phenomenon with participatory observation in 69 regency/municipalities as the main data collection method, in addition to document analysis and in-depth interviews. The key findings from this article are that many strategic planning documents are a mere formality, are not strategic, and are not referred to in executing development activities. The challenges in strategic planning implementation were identified as being poor information and data quality and quantity, weak bargaining position that regencies/municipalities have against higher tiered administration, limited capacity of mid-level managers, limited capacity of planners, formal engagement of stakeholders, and unconducive political environment. Improvement of the evaluation model based on the achievement of outcomes, reducing the ministry's sectoral ego, improving the capacity of evaluators and the need for the involvement of other parties such as credible universities will create a multiplier effect for all stakeholders.

Abstract

This paper aims to examine the citizens’ initiative (CI) to save the Karang Mumus River in Samarinda, Indonesia, through a collective movement, namely GMSS SKM (Gerakan Memungut Sehelai Sampah Sungai Karang Mumus). The river has complicated problems that are mostly caused by human behavior, such as pollution and illegal dwelling. Drawing on the CLEAR (Can do, Like to, Enabled to, Ask to, and Responded to) framework, this research explores the effort of the movement to what extent it engages to save the river. Data in this research are collected at least in two ways, such as interviews and field observation. This research finds out that the local government seems powerless to tackle the river’s problems, therefore the voluntary movement emerges and takes some of the roles. The activists or volunteers use their own resources to run their activities (Can do). They set at least four programs to educate people and the impact will save the environment in the city (Like to). The movement is open for all citizens and communities to join in their activities (Enabled to). They mobilize the group members and publish their activities on social media to attract other citizens (Ask to). It works when some citizens and communities are willing to participate in the activities. The local government then supported the voluntary group by creating a small team of Hantu Banyu. However, some local government officials and local parliament members support the voluntary group individually rather than institutionally. On the other hand, institutional support comes from the central government agency in the city. Moreover, some support also comes from individuals, communities, and the private sector (Responded to).

Abstract

This research aims to describe the power of policy entrepreneurs in disability-inclusive policy-making. Disability-inclusive policy in the Jember Regency of East Java, Indonesia, is a result of a thirteen-year- long struggle of the disability groups. Their struggle started as a series of demonstrations, petitions, and hearings with the Regional House of Representatives and the Regent. It then continued with a series of debates and negotiations with the policy-makers. This descriptive- qualitative research utilized Kingdon’s multiple stream framework analysis to capture the stipulation of Regional Regulation Number 7 of 2016 on the Protection and Fulfillment of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. The informants were six disabled persons and two former members of the Regional House of Representatives. The study finds that the problem stream was raised through demonstrations, petitions, and hearings; the policy stream was done through efforts to include the draft of the disability act in the regional legislative program. Policy windows took place during the momentum initiated by the stipulation of a nationwide disability-inclusive policy by the state government, and, finally, policy entrepreneurs act through lobbies and negotiations. This study concludes that the disability policy-making process in Jember Regency was influenced by the strong power of policy entrepreneurs. Disability groups and the Regional House of Representatives as a policy entrepreneur force acted quickly to take advantage of the open policy window momentum, and, finally, the policy maker ratifies local regulations regarding the protection and fulfillment of the rights of persons with disabilities.
