Taiwan and Southeast Asia
Lee, Chan and their contributors analyse the different kinds of soft power deployed by Taiwan in its bid to strengthen its relations with its neighbours in Southeast Asia. Despite not having formal diplomatic relations with Southeast Asian countries after their diplomatic recognition of the People’s Republic of China decades ago, Taiwan continues to be a key economic and socio-cultural partner for the region at large. Successive administrations in Taiwan from the Chen to Tsai eras have circumvented the long-standing absence of diplomatic recognition with the diffusion of soft power ─ shaping what others want with attractiveness ─ through the utilization of its existing economic and soc...
INDO-PASIFIK dalam POLITIK LUAR NEGERI INDONESIA
Buku ini membahas tentang konseptualisasi Indo-Pasifik dalam kebijakan luar negeri Indonesia yang meliputi dimensi geopolitik, geostrategi, dan geoekonomi. Hal ini diawali dengan munculnya gagasan Indo-Pasifik dalam kebijakan luar negeri Indonesia sejak periode kedua Presiden Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono hingga Joko Widodo. Buku ini menggunakan kerangka pemikiran mengenai keterkaitan antara politik domestik dan internasional dalam penyusunan kebijakan luar negeri. Kebijakan luar negeri Indonesia dalam konteks Indo-Pasifik pada dimensi geopolitik membahas empat aspek: pembangunan pada domain maritim melalui Poros Maritim Dunia (PMD); perluasan perhatian dan diplomasi Indonesia di kawasan Samudera...

Praktik Ekonomi Hijau di Indonesia
Buku ini berisi tentang 34 cerita mengenai praktik ekonomi hijau dari provinsi-provinsi yang ada di Indonesia sebelum adanya penambahan. Didasari oleh lima kategori sektor yang tertuang pada dokumen Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) untuk berkontribusi dalam pengurangan emisi gas rumah kaca (GRK), yakni energi, limbah, kehutanan, pertanian dan industri, buku ini mengangkat cerita menarik yang merupakan hasil riset kualitatif kerja sama Badan Pusat Statistik dan Badan Riset dan Inovasi Nasional (BPS-BRIN) pada tahun 2022. Bisa dikatakan, melalui buku ini, terdapat gambaran praktik baik yang menyeluruh dari wilayah Indonesia untuk pertama kalinya tentang ekonomi hijau yang disajikan dal...
Srikandi Merah Putih
Inilah kisah para srikandi yang tak pernah menundanunda kesempatan untuk memberikan sesuatu yang berguna buat sesama. Mereka mungkin tak punya kata yang sama. Tetapi masing-masing punya pengertian serupa, yang sepertinya setiap benak mereka berkata, “Jangan pernah menunda perbuatan baik yang bisa kau lakukan sekarang. Karena kematian tak memilih apakah kau sudah atau belum melakukan hal yang seharusnya kau lakukan. Kau harus ingat, kematian tak pernah menunggu siapa atau apa pun, karena ia tak punya musuh, juga alpa berteman.” Anggun Pesona Intan Puspita Ade Pujiati Khilda Baiti Rohmah Tri Mumpuni Anggit Tut Pinilih Hasna Tsaniya Rananti Alanda Kariza Alexandra Asmasoebrata Sri Jadiah Alnur Gemala Hanafi Nancy Go Ni luh Djelantik Irna Mutiara-La Perle Tatiek Kancaniati Irma Suryati Angkie Yudistia Merry Riana Evelyn Pritt Neneng Sia Ferrier Rini Triyani Sugianto Dolorosa Sinaga Renitasari Adrian
Social Urbanism and the Politics of Violence
Medellín, Colombia, used to be the most violent city on earth, but in recent years, allegedly thanks to its 'social urbanism' approach to regeneration, it has experienced a sharp decline in violence. The author explores the politics behind this decline and the complex transformations in terms of urban development policies in Medellín.
When There Was No Aid
For all of the doubts raised about the effectiveness of international aid in advancing peace and development, there are few examples of developing countries that are even relatively untouched by it. Sarah G. Phillips's When There Was No Aid offers us one such example. Using evidence from Somaliland's experience of peace-building, When There Was No Aid challenges two of the most engrained presumptions about violence and poverty in the global South. First, that intervention by actors in the global North is self-evidently useful in ending them, and second that the quality of a country's governance institutions (whether formal or informal) necessarily determines the level of peace and civil orde...
Soeharto's New Order and Its Legacy
Indonesia's President Soeharto led one of the most durable and effective authoritarian regimes of the second half of the twentieth century. Yet his rule ended in ignominy, and much of the turbulence and corruption of the subsequent years was blamed on his legacy. More than a decade after Soeharto's resignation, Indonesia is a consolidating democracy and the time has come to reconsider the place of his regime in modern Indonesian history, and its lasting impact. This book begins this task by bringing together a collection of leading experts on Indonesia to examine Soeharto and his legacy from diverse perspectives. In presenting their analyses, these authors pay tribute to Harold Crouch, an Australian political scientist who remains one of the greatest chroniclers of the Soeharto regime and its aftermath.
Rock Slope Engineering
Rock Slope Engineering covers the investigation, design, excavation and remediation of man-made rock cuts and natural slopes, primarily for civil engineering applications. It presents design information on structural geology, shear strength of rock and ground water, including weathered rock. Slope design methods are discussed for planar, wedge, circular and toppling failures, including seismic design and numerical analysis. Information is also provided on blasting, slope stabilization, movement monitoring and civil engineering applications. This fifth edition has been extensively up-dated, with new chapters on weathered rock, including shear strength in relation to weathering grades, and seismic design of rock slopes for pseudo-static stability and Newmark displacement. It now includes the use of remote sensing techniques such as LiDAR to monitor slope movement and collect structural geology data. The chapter on numerical analysis has been revised with emphasis on civil applications. The book is written for practitioners working in the fields of transportation, energy and industrial development, and undergraduate and graduate level courses in geological engineering.
Fraud Analytics Using Descriptive, Predictive, and Social Network Techniques
Detect fraud earlier to mitigate loss and prevent cascading damage Fraud Analytics Using Descriptive, Predictive, and Social Network Techniques is an authoritative guidebook for setting up a comprehensive fraud detection analytics solution. Early detection is a key factor in mitigating fraud damage, but it involves more specialized techniques than detecting fraud at the more advanced stages. This invaluable guide details both the theory and technical aspects of these techniques, and provides expert insight into streamlining implementation. Coverage includes data gathering, preprocessing, model building, and post-implementation, with comprehensive guidance on various learning techniques and t...
