"Indonesia is Southeast Asia's largest economy and freest democracy yet vested interests and local politics serve as formidable obstacles to infrastructure reform. In this critical analysis of the politics inhibiting infrastructure investment, Jamie S. Davidson utilizes evidence from his research, press reports and rarely used consultancy studies to challenge mainstream explanations for low investment rates and the sluggish adoption of liberalizing reforms. He argues that obstacles have less to do with weak formal institutions and low fiscal capacities of the state than with entrenched, rent-seeking interests, misaligned central-local government relations, and state-society struggles over land. Using a political-sociological approach, Davidson demonstrates that 'getting the politics right' matters as much as getting the prices right or putting the proper institutional safeguards in place for infrastructure development. This innovative account and its conclusions will be of interest to students and scholars of Southeast Asia and policymakers of infrastructure investment and economic growth."

"In this empirically rich collection of essays, a team of leading international scholars explore the way that economic transformation is sustained and challenged by everyday practices across Southeast Asia. Drawing together a body of interdisciplinary scholarship, the authors explore how the emergence of more marketized forms of economic policy-making in Southeast Asia impacts everyday life. The book's twelve chapters address topics such as domestic migration, trade union politics in Myanmar, mining in the Philippines, halal food in Singapore, Islamic finance in Malaysia, education reform in Indonesia, street vending in Malaysia, regional migration between Malaysia, Indonesia and Cambodia, and Southeast Asian domestic workers in Hong Kong. This collection not only enhances understandings of the everyday political economies at work in specific Southeast Asian sites, but makes a major theoretical contribution to the development of an everyday political economy approach in which perspectives from developing economies and non-Western actors are taken seriously."

"Challenging the assumptions of 'mainstream' International Political Economy (IPE), this Handbook demonstrates the considerable value of critical theory to the discipline through a series of cutting-edge studies. The field of IPE has always had an inbuilt vocation within Historical Materialism, with an explicit ambition to make sense, from a critical standpoint, of the capitalist mode of production as a world system of sometimes paradoxically and sometimes smoothly overlapping states and markets. Having spearheaded the growth of a vigorous critical scholarship in the 1960s and 1970s, however, Marxism and neo-Gramscian approaches became increasingly marginalized over the course of the 1980s. The authors respond to the exposure of limits to mainstream contemporary scholarship in the wake of the onset of the Global Financial Crisis, and provide a comprehensive overview of the field of Critical International Political Economy. Problematizing socioeconomic and political structures, and considering these as potentially transitory and subject to change, the contributors aim not simply to understand a world of conflict, but furthermore to uncover the ways in which purportedly objective analyses reflect the interests of those in positions of privilege and power."

"This article distills the economic and current significance contained in the political economy of J.R. Commons. It compares descriptions of his three main works that discuss “sovereignty”: A Sociological View of Sovereignty (SVS), Legal Foundations of Capitalism (LFC), and Institutional Economics (IE). Through this comparison, we find that the role of sovereignty in his theory changed dramatically. First, in the period from SVS (1899–1900) to LFC (1924), the theory of sovereignty changes significantly from the standpoint of natural rights, which imply permanence of privileged customs, to “pragmatic philosophy” of the courts, in which laws are relevant to customs at certain times and places. Second, from the manuscripts of IE (1927–1928), sovereignty is defined as comprising part principles, which relate to each other and make up the whole principle, willingness. In other words, Commons views sovereignty as one perspective, which in turn has a high capability of explaining the socioeconomic system. Additional descriptions of IE (1934) derived from its original manuscripts repeatedly emphasize the “power” of economic concerns that are equal to or exceed the power of the state, as well as the importance of the “function” of sovereignty in pragmatic investigations of economic disputes. We distill the economic and current significance of IE. First, the value theory that constructs values institutionally and collectively starts from an analysis of sovereignty and joint evaluations. Second, sovereignty cannot be separated from an analysis of economic transactions. Third, this paper concretely shows elements of a “deliberate space” in which sovereignty and economic interests act in concert"

"This book aims to present innovative theoretical and empirical approaches that can increase our understanding of this transition. Scholars from the fields of international relations, international political economy, economics and security studies not only explore current theoretical debates on ?power? and ?power shifts? among entities, but also provide fresh insights into relevant aspects of international power in the 21st century. With a particular focus on aspects of international security, trade and production, new methods of identifying power and its sources are presented, and their potential implications and challenges are discussed."

"Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh cita-cita Indonesia dalam mewujudkan swasembada daging sapi telah dimulai sejak tahun 2000. Indonesia secara berturut-turut mencanangkan program swasembada daging sapi ke dalam tiga periode: 2000-2005; 2005-2010; 2010-2014. Namun, di penghujung tahun 2014, pencapaian swasembada daging sapi di Indonesia dinyatakan belum tercapai. Maka, penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui faktor internal dan eksternal yang menyebabkan kegagalan program swasembada sapi pada periode tahun 2010-2014.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memahami praktik dan dinamika perdagangan internasional komoditas pangan strategis, serta gesekannya terhadap kepentingan nasional. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa dalam dinamika ekonomi politik internasional, upaya swasembada pangan yang dilihat dari perspektif nasionalisme ekonomi berada dalam kepungan liberalisasi perdagangan internasional. Oleh karena itu, dibutuhkan integritas dari semua pihak yang berkepentingan agar suatu negara dapat mencapai swasembada pangan.

The background of this research is Indonesia's attempt to achieve beef self-sufficiency that has been started since 2000. Indonesia has launched beef self-sufficiency programs consecutively into three periods: 2000-2005; 2005-2010; 2010-2014. However, in the end of 2014, Indonesia still has not reached its target. Thus, this study is conducted to determine the internal and external factors that cause the failure in beef self-sufficiency program in the period 2010-2014.

This research aims to understand the practices and the dynamics of strategic food commodities international trade, as well as its friction against the national interest. The results of this research revealed that in the dynamics of the international political economy, the efforts to achieve food self-sufficiency, which are viewed from the economic nationalism perspective, were surrounded by the liberalization of international trade. Therefore, it takes the integrity of all the stakeholders so that a nation can achieve food self-sufficiency."

"Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memahami pemaknaan identitas Indonesia sebagai destinasi investasi asing oleh Pemerintahan Joko Widodo. Pada masa Pemerintahan Joko Widodo telah terjadi reformulasi kebijakan investasi asing dalam Undang-Undang Cipta Kerja yang dilakukan secara cepat dan masif di tengah pertentangan domestik dalam era Reformasi yang menghadirkan paradigma pentingnya mendengar aspirasi masyarakat luas, serta pandangan terhadap sistem internasional yang konfliktual. Penelitian terdahulu telah banyak membahas mengenai dinamika investasi asing di Indonesia, namun abai dalam menganalisis faktor identitas serta kurang memperhatikan process tracing melalui pidato pemerintah dalam memaknai realitas reformulasi kebijakan investasi asing di Indonesia. Dengan menggunakan paradigma konstruktivisme dalam Kajian Ekonomi Politik Internasional (Abdeal, 2009) dan konsep identitas (Abdelal, dkk, 2006) serta metode penelitian kualitatif melalui analisis isi (content analysis) dengan Aplikasi MAXQDA Versi 22.7.0 terhadap 371 Pidato Presiden Joko Widodo dalam periode waktu April 2014 sampai dengan Oktober 2020, penelitian ini menemukan bahwa norma konstitutif berupa ketentuan informal, tujuan-tujuan sosial, perbandingan relasi melalui kepercayaan pasar dan daya saing, serta model kognitif politik dan ekonomi ala pemerintahan Joko Widodo menentukan konstruksi identitas Indonesia sebagai destinasi investasi asing yang ramah investor. Penelitian ini berkontribusi dalam menghadirkan indikator-indikator yang mengkonstruksi identitas Indonesia sebagai destinasi investasi asing oleh Pemerintahan Joko Widodo, dalam body of literature.

This study aims to understand the meaning of Indonesia’s identity as a foreign investment destination by Joko Widodo Administration. In his period, the foreign investment policies reformulation in the Job Creation Law carried out quickly and massively amidst domestic protest, in the Reformation era which presented a paradigm about the importance of public aspiration as well as views on the conflictual international system. Existing literature has widely discussed about the dynamics of foreign investment in Indonesia, but neglected to analyze identity as a variable and government speeches’ processing tracing on understanding the reformulation of foreign investment policies in Indonesia. Deploying the concept of identity (Abdelal, et al, 2006) on the constructivism paradigm in International Political Economy (Abdelal, 2009) and qualitative methods through content analysis with the MAXQDA application Version 22.7.0 to 371 Speeches by President Joko Widodo period April 2014 to October 2020, this study found that constitutive norms in the form of informal provisions, social goals, comparative relations through market trust and competitiveness, as well as Joko Widodo’s political and economic cognitive models contributed to construct Indonesia's identity as an investor-friendly foreign investment destination. This study contributes to explore indicators constructing Indonesia’s identity as foreign investment destination under Joko Widodo administration, in the body of literature."

"This paper investigates public investment policy (mainly from the 1980s onwards) with a political - economic approach. The points of this paper are as follow. First, at the macro level , it is possible that the short-term fluctuation of public investment has been controlled by the government party's political incentive to win an election rather than in order to dampen economic fluctuations...."

"Studi ini mempelajari tentang hubungan kausalitas antara koalisi mayoritas dan batu bara. Guna mendapatkan gambaran secara menyeluruh, kami melakukan analisis dengan menggunakan pendekatan text mining dan kuantitatif. Dalam hal ini, penggunaan metode text mining diperlukan guna menjelaskan fenomena pada metode kuantitatif. Perlakuan ini kami uji coba pada dua data set, yaitu data set ringkasan rapat DPR RI pada media daring (WikiDPR, Parlementaria Terkini, dan Tempo.co) dan data set ekspor batu bara dan koalisi mayoritas pada tingkatan DPRD RI (Data Bea Cukai Kemenkeu RI, Pemilu 2014-2019, dan BPS). Hipotesis yang kami bangun adalah penurunan volume ekspor batu bara ketika koalisi terbentuk. Studi ini berangkat dengan motivasi tunnelling effect (deduktif – induktif), yaitu pengukuran dampak dari kebijakan yang dihasilkan secara nasional (DPR RI) pada implementasi di tingkat provinsi (DPRD RI). Kami menggunakan metode Text Mining, Sentiment Analysis, dan Discourse Network Analysis untuk pendekatan text mining. Sementara itu, kami menggunakan Regression Discontinuity Design pada pendekatan kuantitatif. Studi ini menemukan adanya hubungan negatif, yaitu koalisi mayoritas tingkat DPRD RI tidak menurunkan volume ekspor batu bara. Temuan ini sejalan dengan hasil yang didapatkan pada pendekatan text mining, yaitu intensi yang dibangun oleh legislator di DPR RI yang mengerucut pada isu-isu perluasan lahan tambang pada tingkat daerah

This study investigates the causal relationship between majority coalition and coal. To obtain a complete picture, we conducted an analysis using both text mining and quantitative approaches. In this stance, the usage of text mining analysis is to explain pattern or phenomenon resulting in quantitative analysis. We use the method onto two datasets: published and open-source meeting summary text data from DPR RI on online media from 2014 to 2020 (WikiDPR, Parlementaria Terkini, and Tempo.co) also the coal export and coalition datasets of the DPRD RI from 2015 to 2021 (Customs Data of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Indonesia, General Commission of Election, and Statistics Indonesia). According to our hypothesis, when a coalition is formed, the volume of coal exported decreases. This study begins with the motivation of tunneling effects (deductive – inductive) on economic policy utilization, with the goal of determining the impact of national-level policies (DPR RI) to its provincial implementation (DPRD RI). We employ Text Mining, Sentiment Analysis, and Discourse Network Analysis in our text mining methods. Furthermore, we employ the Regression Discontinuity Design on a quantitative level. According to the findings of this study, the majority coalition in DPRD RI did not reduce the volume of coal exports. This finding is consistent with the findings of the text mining approach, in which we discovered that the type of discussion or conversation built by the legislator in the DPR RI was focused on the expansion of mining/smelter development also augmentation of production-distribution chain in the local area"
