Abstract

Despite the burgeoning amount of tourism recovery research, there is a dearth of studies that explore communal coping. To address this gap, this study examined the communal coping of a tourism‐reliant community in Indonesia that was destroyed by a tsunami using the Participatory Research Action (PAR) paradigm. It employs Photovoice augmented with mobile data collection using Survey123 from ESRI. The findings identified three phases of communal coping: losing the daily routine, reviving routines, and living with new routines. Each of these was found to be pivotal to destination resilience building. This study offers a novel way to examine disaster experiences.

Since the entry into force of the ASEAN Charter in 2008, it

Disaster studies and tourism disaster research are emerging areas of academic inquiry that remain heavily reliant on traditional methods to gather qualitative data. Only recently have those in this field begun to explore more participatory methodologies, and their potential to generate knowledge. Yet, despite these developments, photovoice remains largely absent in research. This article focuses on the process, limitations, and benefits of this alternative approach, as discovered through a research project in tourism-reliant coastal communities in Banten Province, Indonesia, following a 2018 tsunami. In particular, research combined photovoice and ESRI Survey123 to examine how Banten residents perceived, experienced, and responded to the impacts of the tsunami, as well as their post-disaster coping strategies. Although challenged by reliance on participants having sufficient cell phone data plans, adequate phone signal strength, and the skill levels needed to complete the surveys, the method yielded a richer quality of data than traditional qualitative interviews. The process was also found to be both therapeutic and empowering for tsunami survivors. Overall, this method offers a fresh approach to understanding hazards and providing more nuanced theory-building of tourism disasters.

Kedaulatan negara merupakan prinsip terpenting dalam hubungan dan kerja sama internasional. Adanya kebijakan Indonesia terkait pelarangan ekspor bijih nikel ke pasar Eropa telah menimbulkan gugatan dari Uni Eropa sebagai mitra dagangnya. Indonesia dianggap melanggar perjanjian internasional khususnya Pasal XI GATT. Sengketa perdagangan internasional ini diajukan ke WTO.  Artikel ini akan membahas lebih dalam tentang bagaimanakah pengaturan prinsip permanent sovereignty over natural resources (PSNR) dalam hukum internasional dan bagaimanakah justifikasi Indonesia terkait penerapan prinsip PSNR dalam kebijakan pelarangan ekspor bijih nikel ke Eropa. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian yuridis normatif dengan penelusuran kepustakaan untuk mendapatkan data sekunder sebagai data utama. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa prinsip PSNR merupakan jus cogens dalam hukum internasional. Prinsip ini menjadi dasar penegakan kedaulatan negara untuk mengelola, memanfaatkan, dan mengatur sumber daya alamnya. Nikel adalah sumber daya alam yang tidak dapat diperbarui. Kebijakan pelarangan ekspor nikel Indonesia adalah hak Indonesia untuk mengelola sumber daya alamnya, melindungi lingkungan dalam kerangka pembangunan berkelanjutan, dan untuk kesejahteraan rakyat Indonesia terutama generasi mendatang. Hal tersebut sesuai dengan prinsip PSNR.
