<p>Defense diplomacy seeks to build partnerships through the use of defense-related programs. The Government of Indonesia develops practical cooperation among regional and extra-regional defense establishments on areas of mutual concern in education and research. Indonesia assigns Indonesia Defense University (IDU) to provide professional graduate education in defense studies with strong practical and area emphasis, conduct relevant research in defense strategy and management, national security and defense technology. Heads of Defense Universities/Colleges/Institutions Meeting (HDUCIM) serves the exchange of information concerning curriculum, defense concepts, and state defense development; it is also possible to conduct cooperation on research. In promoting regional security, defense diplomacy through education and research could play an important role in posing the stability of interstate relations by illustrating the relations between Indonesia-Cambodia and Indonesia-Philippines.  </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0in; line-height: 106%;"> </p>

Abstract. The aspects of diplomacy, total defense strategy, and irregular warfare are important aspects which, if combined correctly, will be effective in the strategy of winning the war, including fighting quelling uprisings that threaten the disintegration of the Unitary State of the Republic of Indonesia (Negara Kesatuan Republik Indonesia/NKRI). This paper presents a comparison of the application of the above aspects in three cases of rebellion in Indonesia, namely Darul Islam/ Tentara Islam Indonesia (DI/TII) in West Java, the Fretilin group in East Timor, and the Free Aceh Movement (Gerakan Aceh Merdeka/GAM) in Aceh. Descriptive comparisons refer to the use of library materials to describe the common thread of differences and similarities of the three movements. As a result, exposure to differences and similarities from the application of aspects of diplomacy, total defense strategy, and irregular warfare in the three cases above. Even though the time constraints and understanding of descriptive analysis may have been a limitation in this paper, the comparative presentation presented can be subject to further study, especially regarding the case of war to quell the rebellion in Indonesia. Abstrak. Aspek diplomasi, strategi pertahanan semesta, dan irregular warfare adalah aspek penting jika dikombinasikan secara tepat akan efektif dalam strategi memenangkan peperangan, termasuk perang meredam pemberontakan yang mengancam disintegrasi Negara Kesatuan Republik Indonesia (NKRI). Makalah ini memaparkan perbandingan penerapan ketika aspek di atas dalam tiga kasus pemberontakan di Indonesia, yaitu Darul Islam/Tentra Islam Indonesia (DI/TII) di Jawa Barat, kelompok Fretelin di Timor-Timur, dan Gerakan Aceh Merdeka (GAM) di Aceh. Perbandingan deskriptif mengacu kepada penggunaan bahan pustaka dilakukan untuk memaparkan benang merah perbedaan dan persamaan dari ketiganya. Hasilnya, paparan perbedaan dan persamaan dari penerapan aspek diplomasi, strategi pertahanan semesta, dan irreguler warfare dari ketiga kasus di atas. Meskipun dengan keterbatasan waktu dan pemahaman analisis deskriptif mungkin menjadi batasan dalam makalah ini, tetapi paparan perbandingan yang disampaikan dapat menjadi bahan kajian selanjutnya, khususnya menyangkut kasus perang meredam pemberontakan di Indonesia.

Abstrak -- Diplomasi pertahanan merupakan kajian baru dalam ilmu HI, utamanya diplomasi. Hal ini membuat kajian-kajian yang berkembang dalam diplomasi pertahanan masih minim dan didominasi oleh konsep-konsep western. Padahal hal ini berpotensi menimbulkan bias teoretis jika diterapkan di negara-negara timur. Filsafat timur sesungguhnya memberikan banyak pilihan konsep terkait diplomasi dan ilmu pertahanan, seperti dalam Arthashastra karya Chanakya. Penelitian ini membahas mengenai analisa konsep diplomasi pertahanan negara dalam pandangan Chankya melalui karyanya, Arthashastra. Rumusan masalah dalam penelitian ini adalah bagaimana konsep pemetaan ancaman, statecraft dan juga diplomasi dalam Arthashastra dapat menjadi dasar strategi dan paradigma dalam Diplomasi Pertahanan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memberikan gambaran mengenai konsep pemetaan ancaman, statecraft dan diplomasi dalam Arthashastra sebagai dasar strategi dan paradigma dalam diplomasi pertahanan. Metode yang digunakan adalah analisa isi kualitatif menggunakan analisis wacana kritis dan hermeneutika Gadamer. Konsep Diplomasi pertahanan dalam Pandangan Chanakya digali dari beberapa teori besar dalam Arthashastra mengenai pemetaan ancaman (Teori Mandala); mengenai statecraft (Teori Saptanga); dan mengenai Diplomasi (Teori Mantrashakti, Ṣāḍguṇya dan catur upaya). Pemetaan ancaman dalam teori mandala dipandang masih tradisional dan bersifat military heavy. Konsep statecraft dalam teori saptangga sebagian besar masih relevan, walau ada satu elemen yang perlu dimaknai kembali. Konsep diplomasi dalam teori mantrashakti, Ṣāḍguṇya dan catur upaya sebagian besar masih relevan dan dapat dijadikan dasar dalam paradigma diplomasi pertahanan. Secara umum konsep diplomasi pertahanan chanakya memiliki banyak kemiripan dengan diplomasi militer, sehingga dapat digunakan sebagai acuan dalam strategi diplomasi militer. Namun untuk bisa diaplikasikan pada diplomasi pertahanan saat ini diperlukan penyesuaian terutama mengenai keterlibatan elemen nir-militer.Kata kunci: Diplomasi Pertahanan, Chanakya Arthashastra, Teori Mandala, Teori Saptanga, Mantrashakti, Ṣāḍguṇya, Catur Upaya. Abstract -- Defense diplomacy is a new study in International Relations science, mainly diplomacy. This makes studies that develop in defense diplomacy are still mildly and dominated by western concepts. Even though this has the potential to cause theoretical bias if applied in eastern countries. Eastern philosophy actually provides many choices of concepts related to diplomacy and defense science, such as in Chanakya's Arthashastra. This study discusses the analysis of state defense diplomacy concept in the course of Chankya through his work, Arthashastra. The research questions in this study are how the concept of threat mapping, statecraft and diplomacy in the Arthashastra can be the basis of strategies and paradigms in Defense Diplomacy. This study aims to provide an overview of the concept of threat mapping, statecraft and diplomacy in Arthashastra as the basis of strategies and paradigms in defense diplomacy. The method used is qualitative content analysis using critical discourse analysis and Gadamer’s hermeneutics. The concept of defense diplomacy in the course of Chanakya was explored from several major theories in the Arthashastra concerning the mapping of threats (Mandala Theory); regarding statecraft (Saptanga Theory); and the Diplomacy (Theory of Mantrashakti, Ṣāḍguṇya and catur upaya). Mapping threats in the mandala theory is seen as still traditional and military heavy. The concept of statecraft in the saptangga theory is still largely relevant, although there is one element that needs to be reinterpreted. The concept of diplomacy in the mantrashakti, Ṣāḍguṇya and catur upaya theory is still largely relevant and can be used as a basis in the defense diplomacy paradigm. In general, the concept of defense diplomacy has many similarities to military diplomacy, so that it can be used as a reference in military diplomacy strategies. However, to be applied to defense diplomacy, adjustments are currently needed, especially regarding the involvement of non-military elements.Keywords: Defense Diplomacy, Chanakya Arthashastra, Mandala theory, Saptanga theory, Mantrashakti, Ṣāḍguṇya, Catur Upaya.

The history of war in several countries proves that universal war is a reliable strategy to win a battle. This universal war is used by weak military forces by utilizing national resources to fight against stronger and more modern forces in weaponry, as was done by China, Vietnam and Indonesia. War is caused by several factors, among others, psychological, cultural, ideological, economic and political. In writing this literature review, the author uses methods and theories by collecting data and information through the help of various materials contained in literature (books) or also known as phenomological research types associated with qualitative descriptive and defense philosophy. From the results of literature research, the writer finds that the universal war waged by each country that has adopted this strategy is different in its implementation and the objectives to be achieved. However, the universal war that has been carried out has brought very good results in accordance with the objectives of the struggle of each country that has used it.

The purpose of writing this article is to take a lesson from history and then make a comparison in order to find the strengths and weaknesses of a nation in implementing a defense system, and it is stipulated in a state document in the form of law if we look at events that occurred in the past, the location of the port Somba Opu is located in a very strategic area, which is located between Malacca and Maluku which makes the VOC (Verenigde Oost Indische Compagnie) or the East Indies Trade Association intending to implement monopolistic practices; therefore Makassar port must be controlled and must be under VOC control. In addition, the VOC did its best to provide spices to the European market by monopolizing the spice trade in the archipelago. While also wanting the divine government to be under VOC control, this was a threat to the interests of trade and shipping on the island of Maluku for the Makassar Sultanate since the arrival of the VOC. Because of that, there was trade competition between the Kingdom of Gowa and the VOC, and it was inevitable that there would be friction which resulted in the emergence of social conflict between the Sultanate of Makassar and the VOC, which at its peak broke out in a war between the two sides known as the Makassar War in the XVII century. The conflict continued after the Bongaya agreement on November 18, 1668, which led to major changes in the Bugis-Makassar Kingdom. The VOC obtained a trade monopoly in Makassar, and all non-Dutch Europeans were forced to leave Makassar. The conflict in Makassar resulted in an unstable security situation. The universal defense system, as stated in the Republic of Indonesia Law (RI Law) Number 3 of 2002 concerning national defense, has stipulated that the Indonesian defense system is SISHANKAMRATA, where the contribution of the people in it is an important part).
