The actor has different principles and impacts on a joint decision to achieve an integrated mechanism when solving the problems.

The Civilian Protection and Government Accountability Act of 2025 (CPGAA) establishes a comprehensive framework to hold federal, state, and local governments accountable for misconduct, negligence, and abuse of power. The Act waives sovereign immunity in defined circumstances, allowing citizens to seek redress for personal injury, property damage, and constitutional violations through monetary damages, injunctive relief, and declaratory judgments. It creates uniform liability standards across all levels of government, strengthens procedural safeguards, and ensures political neutrality so that protections apply equally regardless of a citizen’s political views or affiliations.

Beyond litigation, the CPGAA emphasizes prevention and systemic reform through transparency requirements, mandatory reporting, government training programs, and the creation of an independent Civilian Protection Oversight Board. This body monitors compliance, investigates systemic issues, and recommends policy improvements, ensuring long-term accountability. By combining strong remedial mechanisms with robust oversight and data-driven prevention strategies, the Act seeks to restore public trust, deter future misconduct, and reaffirm the principle that no government entity or official is above the law.

Travel and tourism have become a fast-growing industry and a major source of income for many developing countries (Wood, 2002), including Indonesia. Approximately 35% of major nature tourism product portfolio is ecotourism (Kementerian Pariwisata dan Ekonomi Kreatif, 2019). Ecotourism development is based on the awareness of understanding in every environment condition which oriented in conservation and concern of the local culture as well as local civilization. Hence, the existence of community interaction is a guarantee to the sustainability of ecotourism development (Damanik, 2013; Wood, 2002).

Communication is the basis of human interaction, which in turn is the bedrock of society. Free flow of communication, manifest in the public sphere, is a basic human right and democratic ideal. The mass media should create and sustain the public sphere in democratic societies, provide a forum where citizens engage in communicative interactions by converging to receive and share information, deliberate, analyse, comment and form opinions about public affairs. Such engagements enable them participate actively in democratic processes and ensure leaders are held accountable to the demands of good governance that is beneficial to society. By implication, the media constitute a democratic institution that is crucial to the entrenchment and sustenance of good governance. However, the performance of the mediator's roles in the interlocutory engagement between democratic leaders and the governed in Africa has often been queried. In the trajectories of good governance, African mass media have been accused of crippled public sphere in connivance with leaders, having been manipulated to favour their interests at the expense of the citizenry and to the detriment of democratic institutions. The results have been loss of confidence the democratic institutions, processes and leadership they produced in many African countries. This paper examined the roles of mass media in creating platforms for citizens' constructive engagement with democratic leadership in Africa. It anchored its discourse on the principles of democratic participant theory to assess media roles in promoting participation, accountability and other indices of good governance. It established leadership failure in delivering on the indices, which has generated recent reactionary waves of coup d'état in some African countries, thereby threatening democracy. The paper called the media to the onerous obligation of objective and constructive citizens' engagements while holding democratic leaders accountable to citizens on the deliverables of good governance.

The Act Number 6 of 2014 about Village has consequences for allocating village finances through village funds to the Village Government. However, the large amount of financial allocation also creates a risk of fraud. The data from the Ministry of Home Affairs from 2016-2021, shows indications of a significant increase the number of cases of village financial fraud. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the implementation of the village financial management supervision policies and programs by Cianjur District Inspectorate. The qualitative approach was used through interviews with Inspectors, Program Planners, Evaluators, Auxiliary Inspectors, Auditors and Supervisors of Local Government Affairs. Field observations in villages that have received supervision. The results showed that the Cianjur District Inspectorate was not optimal in its internal supervision through village financial management. This is due to the lack of number of human resources and there is no indicator to measure the success of village financial supervision programs. Meanwhile, other supervision methods such as advisory services, monitoring, evaluation, and review have not been able to be implemented. The recommendation from the results of this study is the need for the Cianjur District Inspectorate to innovate the supervision program through a combination of supervision in the current year (such as monitoring and evaluation) and risk-based post-audit and using the village financial supervision information system.

In light of the circumstances that Sudan is going through (the internal war between the regular army and the Rapid Support Forces), we had to find a way to continue education in universities by applying the e-learning experience. This study aims to conduct an assessment of the readiness of the University of Gezira in order to identify the challenges that may hinder the implementation of the e-learning process in order to address them at an early date.

Kasus penembakan tiga anggota kepolisian dalam penggerebekan judi sabung ayam di Lampung mengungkap krisis integritas aparat penegak hukum di Indonesia. Insiden ini tidak hanya melibatkan oknum TNI sebagai tersangka pelaku penembakan, tetapi juga mengindikasikan keterlibatan polisi dalam praktik perjudian yang seharusnya mereka berantas. Paper ini menganalisis peristiwa tersebut melalui pendekatan lima teori kebenaran yaitu koherensi, korespondensi, pragmatis, konsensus, dan performatif. Analisis menunjukkan bahwa tindakan aparat tidak sejalan dengan kode etik (koherensi), tidak didukung bukti objektif (korespondensi), merusak kepercayaan publik (pragmatis), memerlukan kesepakatan lintas institusi (konsensus), dan hanya sah secara performatif jika dibarengi tindakan nyata. Hasil kajian ini menekankan pentingnya reformasi etika dan transparansi dalam institusi penegak hukum, serta perlunya kerja sama antar lembaga dan masyarakat sipil dalam membangun kembali budaya kebenaran yang adil dan akuntabel.

Makalah ini membahas kasus penembakan tiga polisi dalam penggerebekan arena judi sabung ayam di Lampung melalui pendekatan filsafat kebenaran. Kajian ini menggunakan lima teori kebenaran—koherensi, korespondensi, pragmatis, konsensus, dan performatif—untuk menilai validitas tindakan dan pernyataan aparat penegak hukum. Ditemukan bahwa tindakan aparat tidak koheren dengan kode etik, tidak sepenuhnya didukung bukti objektif, berdampak negatif secara pragmatis terhadap kepercayaan publik, serta menimbulkan pertanyaan tentang keabsahan konsensus dan efektivitas ujaran performatif. Penulis menyarankan reformasi menyeluruh melalui peningkatan pengawasan internal, pendidikan etika, transparansi informasi, serta pembentukan tim investigasi independen. Tujuannya adalah membangun kembali kepercayaan publik dan menegakkan budaya kebenaran yang bersandar pada tindakan nyata, bukan sekadar pernyataan formal.

Dalam sistem demokrasi dan negara hukum, penegakan keadilan tidak hanya bergantung pada aturan formal, tetapi juga pada pemahaman yang benar terhadap kebenaran itu sendiri. Salah satu tantangan besar dalam konteks ini adalah ketika aparat penegak hukum justru terlibat dalam pelanggaran hukum, seperti yang terjadi pada kasus penembakan tiga polisi dalam penggerebekan judi sabung ayam di Lampung. Peristiwa ini menyoroti pentingnya kajian filosofis tentang teori - teori kebenaran dalam menilai validitas pernyataan dan tindakan pihak berwenang.

Penerapan teori kebenaran dalam kasus penembakan polisi terkait judi sabung ayam menunjukkan bahwa validitas pernyataan dan tindakan aparat harus diuji secara filosofis, karena ketidaksesuaian antara ucapan dan tindakan berisiko memperdalam krisis kepercayaan publik terhadap institusi penegak hukum.

Esai ini akan membahas tiga pokok utama. Pertama, definisi dan penerapan teori-teori kebenaran seperti koherensi, korespondensi, pragmatis, konsensus, dan performatif dalam kasus ini. Kedua, dampak dari ketidaksesuaian kebenaran terhadap kredibilitas aparat dan kepercayaan publik. Ketiga, solusi filosofis dan praktis untuk membangun kembali budaya kebenaran dan akuntabilitas dalam institusi penegak hukum.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis secara mendalam bentuk sinergi pembangunan berkelanjutan yang dijalankan oleh Partai Demokrasi Indonesia Perjuangan (PDIP) di Kota Malang, serta dampaknya terhadap kualitas hidup masyarakat. Pembangunan berkelanjutan merupakan pendekatan strategis dalam menyelaraskan aspek sosial, ekonomi, dan lingkungan demi tercapainya kemajuan yang inklusif dan berkelanjutan. Latar belakang dari penelitian ini adalah meningkatnya kebutuhan akan integrasi prinsip-prinsip pembangunan berkelanjutan dalam berbagai lini kebijakan publik, termasuk dalam strategi dan program kerja partai politik di daerah. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif. Teknik pengumpulan data meliputi wawancara mendalam dengan tokoh-tokoh internal PDIP, baik internal DPC Kota Malang maupun Fraksi PDIP DPRD Kota Malang, serta analisis dokumen partai dan perencanaan pembangunan daerah. Fokus analisis diarahkan pada strategi internal partai, pola hubungan dengan pemerintah daerah, bentuk program yang dilaksanakan, serta keterlibatan masyarakat dalam proses pembangunan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa PDIP Kota Malang mampu menjalin sinergi antara struktur organisasi partai, pemerintah daerah, dan masyarakat dalam upaya mewujudkan pembangunan yang berkelanjutan. Program-program yang dijalankan, seperti pemberdayaan ekonomi lokal, pendidikan politik masyarakat, dan pelestarian lingkungan hidup menjadi bukti konkret dari komitmen terhadap agenda keberlanjutan. Temuan ini juga mengindikasikan bahwa keberhasilan sinergi dipengaruhi oleh kepemimpinan yang kuat, konsistensi ideologis terhadap nilai-nilai kerakyatan, serta kolaborasi antar lembaga yang bersifat partisipatif. Meski demikian, terdapat tantangan dalam hal keterbatasan anggaran, dan resistensi birokrasi. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini menyarankan adanya penguatan tata kelola partai yang lebih inklusif dan berkelanjutan, serta pentingnya evaluasi berkala atas implementasi program-program pembangunan. Dengan demikian, penelitian ini memberikan kontribusi teoritis maupun praktis bagi pengembangan wacana politik berkelanjutan di tingkat lokal. Hasil studi ini diharapkan dapat menjadi rujukan bagi partai politik lain, pemerintah daerah, dan pemangku kepentingan terkait dalam merancang strategi pembangunan yang berbasis pada kolaborasi, keberlanjutan, dan partisipasi masyarakat.

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the placement of the State Civil Apparatus based on the competencies and qualifications of employees in government agencies. The mismatch between competence and position placement can cause a decrease in individual and organizational performance. This research uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques in the form of interviews, observations, and documentation. The results showed that the effectiveness of employee placement is strongly influenced by the match between individual competencies and job requirements. Proper placement improves employee motivation and performance. Therefore, a structured competency assessment system is needed to optimally support the state civil apparatus placement policy.

Most governments imposed partial lockdowns during the Covid-19 pandemic, resulting in business shutdowns and employee layoffs, which caused economic difficulties, health issues, and mental illness. Many people in Indonesia thus became ride-hailing drivers to survive. This study uses Gojek's case to explore the effects of the collaborative consumption of ride-hailing services on customer satisfaction and drivers' psychological well-being during Covid-19. Using purposive sampling, 409 samples were analysed to assess drivers' motives, activities, resources and capabilities, customer ratings, and psychological conditions. Partial least squares analysis was used to analyse the direct and indirect effects among variables. This study found that motives, activities, and resources and capabilities directly affect drivers' psychological well-being, but only drivers' activities affect customer satisfaction. Customer satisfaction does not affect drivers' psychological well-being and is not an intervening variable for indirect effects. This study provides recommendations for how ride-hailing companies can ensure customer satisfaction and drivers' psychological well-being.

This study investigates the needs and experiences of persons with disabilities within the tourism sector, with the aim of promoting equitable access and inclusive policy development. It addresses a significant gap in current tourism research, which predominantly relies on etic (outsider) perspectives rather than emic (insider) viewpoints of the disabled community. The absence of grounded, emic approaches has resulted in tourism policies that inadequately reflect the lived realities of persons with disabilities.

By adopting a phenomenological methodology, this study foregrounds the subjective experiences and understandings of tourism among persons with disabilities. In doing so, it generates a foundational knowledge base for the development of disability-sensitive tourism frameworks. This approach not only advances the academic discourse in tourism and disability studies, but also challenges prevailing top-down policy paradigms by centering narratives constructed by the disabled community about their own engagement with tourism.

The findings are expected to contribute substantively to interdisciplinary dialogues on inclusive tourism, disability rights, and human development, offering a transformative lens through which tourism systems can be reimagined to serve all members of society more equitably.

Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk melihat proses demokrasi desa dengan cara pemetaan berdasarkan persepsi pemilih pada saat pemilihan kepala desa di Kabupaten Polewali Mandar Tahun 2021. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah kuantitatif. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah pemilih pada pemilihan kepala desa serentak tahun 2021. Metode pengambilan sampel dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode Stratified Random Sampling. Dari total populasi sebanyak 127.638, diketahui bahwa sampel yang terpilih adalah 490 pemilih. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa masyarakat pemilih menilai pemilihan kepala desa serentak di Kabupaten Polewali Mandar tahun 2021 relatif lancar dan kondusif. Secara umum, masyarakat juga menilai kinerja panitia pemilihan dan Dinas Pemberdayaan Masyarakat Desa (DPMD) sudah menunjukkan kinerja yang baik. Kualitas demokrasi di tingkat akar rumput (tingkat desa) dalam proses pemilihan kepala desa serentak juga dinilai patut dicontoh. Kecenderungan ini terlihat pada respon masyarakat pemilih yang menganggap pelaksanaan serentak itu sesuai dengan prinsip demokratisasi dan motivasi masyarakat dalam menentukan pilihannya. Namun, penelitian ini juga menemukan permasalahan yang cukup berat yaitu adanya politik uang pada masa pemilu. Kecenderungan praktik politik uang pada Pilkada Serentak 2021 dinilai mengancam demokrasi pada Pilkada mendatang. Politik uang dapat menghambat kualitas demokrasi di desa dan mempengaruhi gagasan membangun demokrasi secara menyeluruh.

Towards the democratic party in Indonesia, identity politics has become a tool used for political campaigns to influence voters. The focus and purpose of this study are to analyze the dynamics of identity politics approaching the 2024 elections through social media from the sociology of religion perspective. This study used the theory of identity politics put forward by Manuel Castells ( ). The method used was a descriptive qualitative approach. Data sources were obtained through websites, journals and social media. Data analysis techniques used content analysis techniques and Nvivo 12 plus analysis techniques. The results showed a review of Manuel Castells' theory (2007) regarding legitimacy, resistance, and project identity.

Groups of people who feel dissatisfied with government policies or their representatives can articulate their "resistance" identities, including ethnic, religious, or cultural groups that feel neglected and "project identities." Political parties and candidates can also try to build "project" identities by offering concrete visions and programs that focus on solutions to concrete problems faced by society.

This study examines the perceptions of Nigerians on the effectiveness of the country's political system and its ability to support sustainable democracy. A survey of 50 respondents revealed widespread dissatisfaction with the government's ability to address pressing issues, with corruption, ethnic politics, and lack of transparency and accountability cited as major challenges.

Over the last couple of years, the concept of Japa syndrome has become a popular concept among Nigerians, who are seeking to flee the country to better climes. The word flee is used in its literal meaning for all intents and purposes to show how far this concept has escalated and become a trend in the country.
This paper seeks to examine the concept of Japa syndrome and the multifaceted effects of this phenomenon on the Nigerian economy, analysing both the negative and positive impact of this concept. Utilising a combination of economic data, demographic analysis, and expert opinions, this study explores the root causes of the Japa syndrome in order to better understand the concept.
Furthermore, it proposes actionable strategies for mitigating its negative impacts, focusing on fostering a conducive environment for talent retention through improved governance and investment in critical infrastructure. In the end, this paper posits that tackling the Japa syndrome necessitates a comprehensive and cooperative strategy, emphasising the establishment of a robust and appealing national economy as a means of curbing emigration and maximising the capabilities of its skilled workforce.

Democracy is all about the active participation of the citizens and the defense and protection of the rights and interests of the citizens. When this basic truth is lacking in any democratic political system, then the essence for the adoption of democracy as a form of government is defeated. Since the birth of the Fourth Republic in Nigeria in 1999, there has been a growing deficit of the principles and values of democracy in Nigeria. This paper examined the shortcomings of democratic governance in Nigeria Fourth Republic, highlighting its attendant effect on the political participation of the citizens. The study adopted the elitist theory of democracy as a guide. The study adopted a qualitative method of data collection. This is anchored on historical approach. The study made use of content analytical approach in the analysis of our data. The finding of the study shows that Nigerian democracy from 1960 till date has been declining in terms of its content and impact in the lives of the citizens. The study also found that due to the "hijack" of Nigerian democracy by the political elites, majority of Nigerians do not see the reason for continuous participation in politics. The study recommends among others, that the principle of accountability and transparency should be entrenched in Nigeria's democratic government through the promotion of internal party democracy and a nationwide periodic democratic elections that reflect free, fair and transparent process.

The general argument of this book can be expressed quite simply and concisely. We argue that during the democratic transitions and subsequent governments, Brazil and Mexico each developed two unique social control regimes. These regimes have contrasting characteristics and different functions through which the citizenry and civil society exert control over state action. Social control regimes are configurations of relationships between actors, organizational structures, norms, and resources, all arranged in a stable and institutionalized manner to exert social control over state actors and functions. Although numerous studies focus on specific experiences of social accountability, social participation, and democratic innovation in both countries, characterizing these experiences broadly as social control regimes is novel, especially considering that in this book they are treated as specific sociopolitical configurations rather than merely institutional architectures.

For over five decades, Uganda has received substantial financial aid from the United States through USAID, supporting key sectors such as health, education, and infrastructure. However, recent decisions by the U.S. government to cut funding raise concerns about Uganda’s economic and social stability. This paper argues that Uganda should not be in crisis following these cuts, emphasizing the need for self-sustainability after years of donor support. It highlights Uganda’s long-term benefits from USAID, the importance of fostering self-reliance, and the government’s responsibility in ensuring proper utilization of funds. Additionally, the paper explores instances of aid misuse, where foreign assistance has been leveraged as a political tool rather than a development enabler. By referencing government reports and USAID program evaluations, this study underscores the necessity for improved governance, transparency, and investment in local solutions. A human-centered approach is proposed, advocating for a shift from dependency to ownership of Uganda’s development agenda. The paper concludes that while foreign aid has played a vital role, Uganda has the capacity to sustain its progress independently through better resource management and policy reforms.

El libro de Eduardo Moncada es una contribución importante al estudio del fenómeno de las apropiaciones comunitarias de la seguridad y la justicia en América Latina. El texto aporta elementos para entender cómo y por qué los ciudadanos responden de distintas formas al crimen a partir del estudio de tres casos en México, El Salvador y Colombia, respectivamente. De tal modo, el texto pone en entredicho el supuesto que dice que las acciones defensivas son espontáneas y conducidas por la ira inmediata de la multitud. Por el contrario, se pone el foco en los contextos sociales de las víctimas de delitos para así dar cuenta de las distintas herramientas y capitales que movilizan para confrontar su situación.
