Abstract

The paper analyzes the decision that the U.S. took upon the request of a Chinese dissent requesting for asylum when the U.S. Secretary of State came to China for a diplomatic visit. The analytical paper extracted the international issue between two contending countries using the game theory to consider the implication and thus to find a solution to the conundrum. Game theory allows for positive results if it is a repeated game but for this rare situation it is not likely that it is a regular game to be repeated over time. While this event is in the past, a similar situation may arise that could use the signaling and strategic decision making process by using this practical yet rarely applied method.

Abstract

Since the end of the Cold War the Asia-Pacific region draws increased attention but there is a gap between the rich comparative and foreign policy scholarship on China, Japan, and the United States with the wider world of international relations theory. Although Pierre Lizee’s work, quoting Stanley Hoffmann, puts forward an argument that international studies as a discipline assumes that it speaks to the nature of politics throughout the entire world,1 it is evident that the study of Southeast Asia in particular, tends to be under-theorized.2 The images, concepts, and theories which underlie international studies as Hoffmann argued, must be recognized for what they are: product of the post-1945 era, when “to study United States foreign policy was to study the international system and to study the international system could not fail to bring one back to the role of the United States.”3

Abstract

Stereotype and suspicion toward certain ethnic minorities of the country has never left Indonesia’s story of social diversity. Growing participation and greater representation of Chinese-Indonesians in national and local election have demonstrated an inspiring progress of the country’s ongoing democratization which encourages the recognition of minority’s ethnic identity in wider society. Based on this context, this paper aims to introduce the general performance of Chinese-Indonesian candidates in the legislative election at the state level since 1999, with a focus on analysing media tycoon Hary Tanoesoedibjo’s (or Hary Tano) experience in the 2014 election, in which he has been credited by political scientists and Chinese-Indonesian scholars for a certain degree of break-through in the Indonesian political landscape. Such story of success, however, does not necessarily indicate any trend that Chinese-Indonesian politicians in general have obtained the same degree of equality in politics as their indigenous counterparts. The tactic that Hary Tano has adopted is to expand his political clout through buying-off minor parties. Yet, in practice the underlying social norms of the status quo means that there is a long road ahead until Chinese-Indonesian oligarchs are taken seriously as political actors rather than used for short-term political gain.

Abstract

In Soesilo Bambang Yudhoyono administration, the shift/ dynamics occurred in Indonesia foreign policy. In contrast to the exclusion and rejection of Islam as identity in official statement in Old and New Order, Indonesia actively promote moderate Islam in international relations. Using qualitative method, this document- based research argue that promotion of moderate Islam in Indonesia foreign policy was constructed by Islamic norm, Islam rahmatan lil alamin norm. This norm can be found by tracing the emergence process as mentioned by Finnemore and Sikkink’s Norms Life Cycle Model. The finding suggested some conformity to the model and some deviation especially in term of state actor and their motivation.

Abstract

 Tulisan ini mencoba mendiskusikan pertentangan nilai antara China dan Barat dalam melihat perkembangan globalisasi ekonomi yang cenderung didominasi oleh paham Barat. Infiltrasi nilai Barat dalam globalisasi ekonomi terlihat dari prinsip kapitalisme yang digunakan dalam pasar bebas dan institusi perekonomian global seperti International Monetary Fund (IMF), Bank Dunia, dan World Trade Organization (WTO). Hal tersebut bertentangan dengan prinsip yang dianut China yaitu “Sosialisme dengan Karakteristik China”, yang merupakan gabungan dari konfusianisme dan sosialisme. Dengan menggunakan pandangan konstruktivisme oleh Christian Reus-Smith, Alexander Wendt, dan Peter Katzenstein, artikel ini menunjukkan bahwa China memiliki interpretasi tersendiri dalam menanggapi globalisasi ekonomi ala Barat yang dipengaruhi oleh dua determinan yaitu pengaruh nilai domestik dan konteks internasional. Kedua determinan tersebut mendorong China untuk menciptakan globalisasi ala China berprinsip pada Sosialisme dengan karakteristik China yang dituangkan dalam kebijakan community of common destiny.

Abstract

Abstract This research explains about the motivation of Indonesia in doing carbon trading with Norway. As a country which has tropical rainforest, Indonesia has become important for the developed countries in the carbon trade cooperation, especially Norway. Indonesia has the potential natural resources, such as tropic rainforest and large of land, that can be used to reduce carbon emissions in the world. By signing the letter of intent (LoI) on May 26th in 2010 in Oslo, Indonesia and Norway have agreed to conduct carbon trading both of these two countries. On the one hand, this cooperation can be advantageous for Indonesia, because Indonesia gets one billion US dollars from Norway for Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD) program , but on the other hand Indonesia can not maximize the exploitation of forestry sector and land because of the limitation caused by REDD. It eventually causes the carbon trading between Indonesia and Norway becomes important to be inquired. Keywords: Environment, Carbon Trading, Priso Indone Policy Abstrak Penelitian ini menjelaskan tentang motivasi Indonesia dalam melakukan perdagangan karbon dengan Norwegia. Sebagai negara yang memiliki hutan hujan tropis, Indonesia menjadi penting bagi negara- negara maju dalam kerja sama perdagangan karbon, terutama Norwegia. Indonesia memiliki potensi sumber daya alam, seperti hutan hujan tropis dan lahan yang luas, yang dapat digunakan untuk mengurangi emisi karbon di dunia. Dengan menandatangani letter of intent (LoI) pada 26 Mei 2010 di Oslo, Indonesia dan Norwegia telah sepakat untuk melakukan perdagangan karbon kedua negara ini. Di satu sisi, kerjasama ini dapat menguntungkan bagi Indonesia, karena Indonesia mendapat satu miliar dolar AS dari Norwegia untuk program Pengurangan Emisi dari Deforestasi dan Degradasi Hutan (REDD), tetapi di sisi lain Indonesia tidak dapat memaksimalkan eksploitasi sektor kehutanan dan lahan karena keterbatasan yang disebabkan oleh REDD. Hal tersebut menyebabkan perdagangan karbon antara Indonesia dan Norwegia menjadi penting untuk dipertanyakan.

Abstract

Tulisan ini bertujuan menganalisis permasalahan illegal fishing di Indonesia dengan menggunakan pemikiran Green Politics Theory. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dan teknik analisis deskriptif, tulisan ini berupaya menemukan upaya yang perlu dilakukan pemerintah Indonesia dalam mengatasi krisis lingkungan laut Indonesia terkait aktifitas illegal fishing.  Cara pandang yang tepat untuk    menyelesaikan krisis lingkungan laut adalah menggunakan ekosentrisme karena menjadikan kelestarian ekologi sebagai sasaran utama. Setelah mengarah pada cara pandang ekosentris, pemerintah Indonesia perlu untuk melakukan studi perbandingan terhadap negara-negara yang sudah menggunakan GPT dalam landasan politik dan konstitusinya. Upaya selanjutnya adalah restrukturisasi politik yang berorientasi pada kesinambungan ekologi. Selanjutnya adalah memperluas desentralisasi. Terakhir, upaya penanganan illegal fishing dilakukan dengan pemberdayagunaan kearifan lokal. Cara pandang Green Politics Theory bisa memberikan alternatif solusi dalam upaya menangani krisis lingkungan laut Indonesia terkait illegal fishing, karena gagasannya yang ekosentris dapat menjaga konsistensi ekologis walaupun rezim pemerintahan silih berganti.
