PurposeCOVID-19 cases in Indonesia continue to increase and spread. This article aims to analyse the Indonesian government policies as a response in dealing with COVID-19.Design/methodology/approachThis article is a narrative analysis with the approach of a systematic literature review.FindingsThis article found that the Indonesian government responded slowly to the COVID-19 pandemic at the beginning of its spread in March 2020. The government then issued some policies such as physical distancing, large-scale social restriction (PSBB - Pembatasan Sosial Berskala Besar) and social safety net. These policies will only work if the society follows them. The society could be the key to success of those policies, either as the support or the obstacles.Practical implicationsThis policy analysis with literature review, conducted from March to July 2020 in Indonesia, provides experiences and knowledge in how to respond to the dynamic problems of public policy in dealing with the COVID-19 outbreak, especially in the context of a developing country.Originality/valueThe novelty of the article lies in the unique policy response in a diverse society. It suggests that the policymakers should pay more attention to the society’s characteristics as well as the mitigation system as a preventive measure and risk management to make clear policy in the society.
The purpose of this service is to provide knowledge to village officials and the community of Pujon Kidul Village about the importance of the Village Profile. The Village Profile is very much needed as a means of socializing and actualizing the potential that exists in the village. However, Pujon Kidul Village, which is known as the Tourism Village, does not yet have an official village profile. So that the socialization of village potential is not optimal. The special target to be achieved in this service is the compilation of the Pujon Kidul Village profile which is officially managed by the community and / or village officials with online media in the form of websites and offline media. For this reason, training in making a good and attractive village profile is needed so that the aims and objectives of creating a village profile for socialization and promotion of village potentials will be carried out well. This service was carried out using the Focus Group Discussion (FGD) method which involved village officials and BUMDes managers which resulted in three agreements. First, a more adequate and informative website was developed. Second, a village profile video was made and a booklet was compiled. Third, the use of the media is to maximize village promotion through online and offline.
Konflik Rusia – Ukraina memberikan dampak negatif terhadap stabilitas global, sehingga memicu krisis di berbagai negara. Kondisi konflik yang belum mereda, membuat Indonesia berinisiatif melakukan misi perdamaian melalui Presiden Joko Widodo yang melakukan kunjungan ke Ukraina dan Rusia, untuk menjadi jembatan komunikasi kedua negara. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan alasan mengapa Indonesia melakukan misi perdamaian terhadap konflik Rusia - Ukraina. Penelitian menggunakan metode eksplanatif kualitatif, dengan teknik pengumpulan data studi kepustakaan, serta teknik analisis kualitatif. Selain itu juga memakai Teori Soft Power, dan Konsep First Track Diplomacy. Hasil yang didapatkan yaitu Indonesia memakai instrumen diplomasi first track dalam misi perdamaian konflik Rusia – Ukraina, yang terlihat dari penggunaan dialog, negosiasi, dan kerja sama antar negara, sehingga membuka peluang perdamaian antar negara. Selain itu, dibalik misi perdamaian tersebut, Indonesia memiliki kepentingan ekonomi, membentuk citra positif, dan mempersiapkan untukmelancarkan agenda KTT G20 mendatang. Fenomena tersebut kemudian bersesuaian dengan tujuan dari Soft Power Indonesia yaitu untuk meningkatkan keamanan lingkungan eksternal dengan memproyeksikan citra negara yang damai dan menarik dengan menggunakan Soft Resource nya sebagai Tuan Rumah & Ketua Penyelenggaraan KTT G20. Studi ini mengembangkan studi sebelumnya, karena hasil yang didapatkan memperkaya kajian tentang perkembangan konflik rusia - ukarina terutama jika ditinjau dari segi soft power.
<p>Kondisi politik internasional yang sedang memanas di Kawasan Asia-Pasifik membuat Australia berada dalam posisi yang sulit. Amerika Serikat adalah sekutu lama Australia yang memegang peranan penting dalam kebijakan pertahanan dan keamanan Australia, sedangkan China adalah pemain baru yang memegang peranan penting dalam perekonomian Australia. Di posisi yang sulit ini, banyak yang berpendapat bahwa pada akhirnya Australia harus memilih salah satu di antara keduanya. Namun faktanya, Australia tidak harus memilih. Penerapan strategi <em>hedging</em> seperti yang sudah dilakukan di bawah Pemerintahan Perdana Menteri John Howard sangat mungkin di aplikasikan ulang saat ini. Dengan adanya kompetisi antara dua negara besar justru merupakan kesempatan yang sangat baik bagi Australia untuk menunjukkan kapasitasnya sebagai negara <em>middle power</em> untuk bisa menyatukan kepentingan kedua negara tersebut.</p>
This research aims to analyze the position of the Union Generale Tunisienne du Travail (UGTT) which is a combination of trade unions and labor unions in Tunisia in influencing the country's political stability during the time of the Arab revolution or what is known as the Arab Spring. This research analysis uses the concept of civil society to see the role of trade unions in Tunisia in building their political power. This research uses a qualitative method with library research (library research) which is classified and grouped based on several collections of written materials from various sources of books, scientific articles, and the internet. The results of the study show that the UGTT has two roles in achieving the goals of Tunisia's democratization, firstly as a power intermediary, where the UGTT functions in uniting the population and the government by chairing dialogue and guiding decision making during an unstable period. Second, the UGTT also plays a role as a key mediator in the democratization transition process by participating in the policy-making process, namely working with members of parliament in drafting a new constitution.
