This paper looks at how Indonesia contributes to the creation of a relatively peaceful and stable Southeast Asian region after the Cold War. It examines Jakarta's diplomacy in the South China Sea, and explains its implications for the making of the regional order. The argument is that Indonesia's impact on regional security has been apparent in its attention to the improvement of rule-based interaction among states in the region. However, recent developments have demonstrated that Indonesia's initiatives, formulated in the Indo-Pacific Cooperation Concept, are unsuccessful due to the lack of support from other ASEAN states. This paper shows that great powers politics in the troubled waters has hindered the advancement of Indonesian's orderdriven policy.

This article aims to test competing explanations about the US foreign aid policy, namely interest-driven theory, humanitarian theory, and domestic political theory. Using longitudinal data on the amount of Official Development Assistance provided by the US to 155 recipient countries from 1960 to 2008, analyzed using random coefficient models, the research found that humanitarian and domestic political theories can account for the US foreign aid policy to the recipient countries for almost five decades better than the interest-driven theory. Generally, the US were more likely to send aid to poorer countries and/or countries where the US-based NGOs were actively involved. The econometric models also show that there are some cross-sectional and temporal variations in the aid. On average, countries receiving high amount of aid in the 1960s tend to have lower annual growth rate in the money they received from the US.

This research aims to explore the use of appraisal system, especially attitude, and its source of appraisal in the slogans on political campaign banners of regent and mayor prospective candidates in Bogor Residence and Bogor City. Researches on slogans on political campaign banner have been widely counducted, while the researches which apply the appraisal theory are still not easy to find. In fact it can help text consumers clearly see the attitude and the evaluation of the text producers on subjects they communicate. The data were analyzed by using appraisal system theory proposed by Martin and White (2005). The data were obtained by observing and were analyzed by using referential matching (padan referensial) method. The results show that judgment is the most-frequently-used subcategory in the slogans. It reflects that the political campaign banner creators give more emphasis on appraisal of human behaviour, whether of themselves or of others (society).

The finding shows that the regent and the mayor prospective candidates often subjectively claim their quality without considering others' opinion in their political advertisement.AbstrakSalah satu fungsi bahasa dalam wacana politik adalah untuk memengaruhi orang lain.

The military also holds full control of the armed forces, police and security forces, thus demonstrating the military role in Myanmar's policies regarding prosecution of the ethnic minority Rohingya.

The self concept according to Goffman strongly influenced by Mead thought, especially in his discussion of the tension between the spontaneous, "I" and "me", the self which is limited by social life. Goffman assumes that if interact, the actor wants to show sense of self that can be accepted by others. However, when the present themselves, the actors realize that members of the audience may interfere with performance. Because the actors adjust to control the audience, especially the elements that can be annoying. Mulyana (1999: 87) explains that the approach of Goffman core of the view that when humans interact with each other, he wants to "manage" the impression that he expected to grow on others against. To that end, each person do a "show" for others. Life is like a theater, social interaction on the stage to show the roles played by the actors. The world's political campaigns in Indonesia, political parties indeed have featured "front stage" with its lively, especially through the party's show of force in the form of a procession in the streets.
