Mempertanyakan Indonesia: Tantangan dan Prospek Bagi “Indonesian Way” Sebagai Middle Power

Abstract

The rise of middle powers has reshaped global dynamics, reducing the dominance of traditional superpowers. Indonesia, now an emerging middle power, has the potential to influence global affairs and advance its national interests. This research analyzes Indonesia's position and explores its global challenges and opportunities. Despite its status, Indonesia hasn't fully leveraged its influence or achieved its goals. The study attributes this to two main factors: the lack of a clear identity as a middle power and the absence of a sustainable foreign policy blueprint.
