Since 9/11 western and non-western governments have implemented counter-counter terrorism and de-radicalisation programs to “inoculate Muslim populations” and de-radicalise those deemed as radicalised through securitization and “moderate Islam”. The Indonesian government and civil society organizations have attempted to address radicalisation by setting up counter-radicalisation and de-radicalisation programs. This paper will critically reflect on the Indonesian de-radicalisation programs. It will first critically discuss the terms radicalisation and de-radicalisation. Then critically assess the Indonesian de-radicalisation programs. In the final section, the author suggests that Indonesia needs to introduce humanitarian activities to make the de-radicalisation programs more effective and overcome labelling and stigmatization.

A complex process of global consultation is currently under way to discuss the shape of the MDGs Post 2015. The aim of this paper is to address the question of where Local Government (LG) should fit into this debate, as a modest contribution to the ongoing consultation process. The paper is structured as follows: the first section describes in more detail the global consultation process on the Post 2015 agenda; the second describes how Local Government relates to the current MDGs; the third section explores how some of the consultation documents see the role of LG before considering what the role of LG could be in the new agenda. The final section speculates on more radical roles for LG, in terms of what we should be asking for, and suggests new roles for LG in partnerships with other civil society organizations in poverty reduction.

Since 9/11, de-radicalisation programs have become central to every country that deems itself at risk from terrorist attacks from global terror groups such as ISIS. Consequently, many countries have implemented programs to “inoculate their Muslim populations” and de-radicalise and disengage those Muslims deemed radicalised through securitisation and “moderate Islam”. Such programs aim to persuade individuals to renounce extremist ideas and violence and adopt moderate Islam, often state-orientated Islam, as is the case in Indonesia. The Indonesian government and civil society organisations have attempted to address radicalisation by setting up counter-radicalisation and de-radicalisation programs, with various degrees of success. The central thesis of this paper is that de-radicalisation is not achievable, and the current programs in Indonesia are not effective. The paper will first critically discuss the concepts of radicalisation and de-radicalisation/disengagement. Then, the paper will critically assess the Indonesian de-radicalisation programs by focusing on their shortcomings and unintended consequences, which result in the labelling and stigmatisation of former detainees and their families and hinder their successful de-radicalisation and reintegration. In the final section, the author will suggest that the Indonesian government and civil society organisations need to introduce humanitarian activities to improve their programs and reduce the chances of recidivism.

Akan tetapi, upaya pemerintah Indonesia menjaga citra komoditas minyak kelapa sawit seolah menutupi permasalahan konflik satwa dan manusia yang salah satunya muncul akibat ekspansi perkebunan sawit. Kajian ini akan mendalami merebaknya konflik satwa dan manusia yang terdampak ekspansi perkebunan sawit akibat ambisi peningkatan ekspor crude palm oil. Penelitian ini adalah desk study yang dilakukan dengan melakukan penelusuran terhadap berbagai artikel jurnal, laporan organisasi pengawal perkebunan sawit, laporan organisasi masyarakat sipil yang terkait dengan deforestasi akibat ekspansi sawit, dan berbagai laporan organisasi masyarakat sipil mengenai kasus konflik antara satwa dan manusia. Hasil kajian menunjukan bahwa telah terjadi kesalahpahaman dalam memahami keputusan Uni Eropa yang sama sekali tidak akan berdampak pada berkurangnya ekspor minyak kelapa sawit. Tata kelola sawit berkelanjutan tidak dilaksanakan dengan baik oleh perusahaan sawit dan Pemerintah Indonesia, sehingga meminggirkan peri kehidupan hewan. Intensitas konflik satwa-manusia terus terjadi di berbagai wilayah konsesi sawit yang berujung pada keterancaman peri kehidupan binatang liar Kata Kunci: Ekspor Sawit, Konflik Satwa-Manusia, Kesejahteraan Hewan
