Studies of Indonesian foreign policy have tended to explain change through either individual leaders or systemic pressures, leaving the bureaucratic institutions that mediate between the two relatively underexplored. Focusing on Foreign Minister Hassan Wirajuda’s systematic overhaul (2001–2009), the article argues that this overhaul was a structuring process driven by the interplay between reformist agents and the conditions of post-authoritarian democratization. Drawing on primary sources including ministerial interviews and a bilateral treaty database, it advances three findings: the reform reasserted professional civilian control over foreign policy formulation; generated new institutional capacity to conduct and diversify bilateral relations; and enabled the revitalization of Indonesia–Russia relation. The article contributes to the historiography of Indonesian diplomacy and to the broader study of how democratization reshapes the institutional architecture of foreign policy.</p> Reynaldo de Archellie, Zeffry Alkatiri, Linda Sunarti Copyright (c) 2026 Reynaldo de Archellie, Zeffry Alkatiri, Linda Sunarti https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 https://jurnalhiusni.org/index.php/bhuvana/article/view/295 Wed, 30 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0700 https://jurnalhiusni.org/index.php/bhuvana/article/view/323 <p>Since October 2023, the Gaza War has not only triggered an escalation of violence in Palestine but has also produced a significant ripple effect on Israel across multiple sectors. Employing a ripple effect and washback of war framework, this paper analyzes how the war has generated cascading waves of impact affecting the material, economic, and political dimensions — both domestic and international — for Israel. This study adopts a qualitative method through data collection from Israeli government sources and academic journals related to the Israel-Gaza war since 2023. The findings reveal that the war has had a substantial impact on Israel, both domestically and internationally, encompassing economic disruption, shifts in Israeli public perception, and an increasingly critical change in global attitudes toward Israel, including among countries that have historically been pro-Israel. The contribution of this study lies in its attempt to examine the other side of the Israel-Gaza conflict, which has predominantly been portrayed through the lens of Gaza as the party suffering the greatest losses.</p> Hasbi Aswar, Herman Felani, Dewi Masitoh, Alfredha Shinta Putri, Derina Faslig Silitonga Copyright (c) 2026 Hasbi Aswar, Herman Felani, Dewi Masitoh, Alfredha Shinta Putri, Derina Faslig Silitonga https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 https://jurnalhiusni.org/index.php/bhuvana/article/view/323 Wed, 30 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0700
