The Transnational Legal Process of Global Health Jurisprudence: HIV and the Law in Indonesia The Transnational Legal Process of Global Health Jurisprudence: HIV and the Law in Indonesia Siradj Okta A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2020 Reading Committee: Walter J. Walsh, Chair Rachel A. Cichowski Dongsheng Zang Aaron Katz Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Law © Copyright 2020 Siradj Okta University of Washington Abstract The Transnational Legal Process of Global Health Jurisprudence: HIV and the Law in Indonesia Siradj Okta Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Walter J. Walsh School of Law As one of the most pressing global health priorities, HIV disruption requires effective transnational work. There is growing confidence among experts about ending AIDS by 2030. In Indonesia, a country with one of Asia’s fastest-growing HIV epidemics, the law is instrumental to achieve that goal. Nonetheless, national laws and policies that undermine HIV prevention are continuously being adopted or preserved. This suggests that the presence of global health jurisprudence does not necessarily lead to national legal processes to enable HIV prevention policies. This situation raises the central question of whether the perpetuation of national legal barriers to HIV prevention is associated with Indonesia’s internalization of global health jurisprudence. This study uses Professor Harold Koh’s transnational legal process theory to examine the transfer of global health jurisprudence by looking at Indonesia’s interaction at the global level, interpretation of norms, and domestic internalization thereof. As a multi-method study with an inductive reasoning approach, this research utilizes a qualitative data analysis of international organizations’ laws and policies, public/private institutions’ policies, international treaties, Indonesian laws, and relevant public records. The study explores both the spatial and temporal development of global health jurisprudence throughout the HIV epidemic in Indonesia. At the national level, the study examines the laws and policies that are significant to HIV prevention and discusses the legal processes by taking the identified norms on global HIV prevention into account. After decades of Indonesia’s participation in the global HIV response, this dissertation discusses a legal barrier that is prevalent across twenty-three out of thirty-four provinces in the country: HIV criminalization. Knowing that HIV criminalization is a legal impediment to a mainstream HIV reduction and eradication program, this dissertation concludes that the country’s internalization is rather deficient.

The European Green Deal is a response to these challenges; it aims to transform the EU into a fair and prosperous society, with a modern, resource-efficient and competitive economy with zero net emissions of greenhouse gases by 2050. Through the Climate Resilient and Inclusive Cities (CRIC) project, the EU and Indonesia are working together to help cities build a resilient and inclusive future. We do so by building partnerships between governments, businesses, local communities and research institutes in Europe, South Asia and Southeast Asia. Clearly, there are hurdles along the way, especially in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, our response to this pandemic needs to be a sustainable one, addressing the challenges of climate change as well as economic recovery. Just last month, in Sukabumi City of West Java Province, a flash flood cost lives and forced hundreds of citizens to leave their houses. According to the Indonesian National Disaster Management Agency, Indonesia is about to experience more hydrometeorological disasters due to climate change. The CRIC Urban Analysis Report is a timely reminder that cities cannot delay their sustainable transition. This Urban Analysis Report for ten Indonesian pilot cities under the CRIC project offers a comprehensive overview of city characteristics, policy gaps and climate-related policies in the cities of Pangkalpinang, Pekanbaru, Bandar Lampung, Cirebon, Banjarmasin, Samarinda, Mataram, Kupang, Gorontalo and Ternate.

  • Ubud: from the Origins to 19201
    Ubud: From The Origins to 19201 Jean Couteau* Abstract Today’s historis often tries to weave together unquestionable facts with a narrative that consciously gives room to past myths and legends. The following article about the famous “cultural” resort of Ubud freely applies this approach to history. Myths and legends about the origin of Ubud combine with unquestionable historical facts to convey, beyond the Ubud’s raw history proper, the prevailing athmosphere of Ubud’s pre-modern past. Thus the mythical seer Resi Merkandaya is made to appear alongside the story of the kembar buncing (fraternal, non-identical twins) of the House of Ubud, and the history of Western presence and intervention. Keywords: prince of Ubud, knowledge of tradition, modernizing Bali Ubud: In the Legendary Haze of History o those who truly know Ubud, that is, Ubud such as it was, Twhen its life was still governed, through rites, by the har- monious encounter of Man and Nature, Campuhan is a magical spot, which marks Ubud as a place bestowed by the favors of the * Dr. Jean Couteau is a French writer living in Bali who publishes extensively on a large variety of topics in French, English and Indonesian.

  • Institutional and Regulatory Roles in Maintaining Sustainability of Subak As a World Cultural Heritage in Bali
    Full-length paper Asian Agri-History Vol. 21, No. 4, 2017 (245-254) 245 Institutional and Regulatory Roles in Maintaining Sustainability of Subak as a World Cultural Heritage in Bali I Nyoman Norken, I Ketut Suputra, and I Gusti Ngurah Kerta Arsana Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, University of Udayana, Jimbaran, Badung 80361, Bali, Indonesia (email: [email protected]) Date of Acceptance: 4 May 2017 Abstract Subak in Bali is a traditional irrigation system and is thought to have existed before the ninth century. Subak adopts the philosophy of Tri Hita Karana, which means three causes of the creation of harmony: the creation of a harmonious relationship with God/Creator; human relationship with the natural surroundings; and human relationship with other humans, and has been recognised as a World Cultural Heritage in 2012. Subak sustainability is dependent on the institutional and regulatory bodies in realizing the creation of harmonious relationship between man and man. The contribution of the board (Prajuru), especially the leaders (Pekaseh) of Subak in maintaining a tradition is held for many years, which is based on the principle of ngayah (working selessly). The success of maintaining Subak is supported by the internal regulations (awig-awig); additional rules (perarem), and meeting decisions (pasuara). Awig-awig, which was originally just an agreement between the members of Subak, became a tradition called dresta or sima and is based on the belief related to Hinduism. Compliance of the prajuru and krama of Subak in carrying out activities in accordance with awig-awig is an important part in maintaining the Subak.

Abstract Insertions and deletions (indels) in the HIV-1 gp120 variable loops modulate sensitivity to neutralizing antibodies and are therefore implicated in HIV-1 immune escape. However, the rates and characteristics of variable loop indels have not been investigated within hosts. Here, I report a within-host phylogenetic analysis of gp120 variable loop indels, with mentions to my preceding study on these indels among hosts. We processed longitudinally-sampled gp120 sequences collected from a public database (n = 11,265) and the Novitsky Lab (n=2,541). I generated time-scaled within-host phylogenies using BEAST, extracted indels by reconstructing ancestral sequences in Historian, and esti- mated variable loop indel rates by applying a Poisson-based model to indel counts and time data.
