PREFACE Andalas Journal of International Studies (AJIS) has been significantly improving this year. The journal has started to gain global recognition since its collaboration with international academicians as a reviewer and an author. Furthermore, the number of article submitted to AJIS is also increasing. This is a small yet meaningful step to attain a world-class academic journal position in international studies as we project AJIS could be a platform to share alternative ideas and concepts for scholars and researchers all across the globe. It has been seven years since the editorial board issued the first publication of AJIS and we are very delighted to release 8th Volume (Number 1) edition for this year. This volume sheds light on several aspects related to environmental diplomacy, Greenpeace’s role in combating pollution in Jakarta, the Korean Wave, the ASEAN Way, the Indian Ocean, the market share of Indonesian palm oil, and human trafficking. The opening article of this edition studies Indonesian strategies in environmental diplomacy through the lens of English school theory. It applies the theoretical framework on the ASEAN Way and Indonesian peat restoration agency as the case studies. The second paper investigates Greenpeace action plans to tackle air pollution problem in Indonesia’s capital, Jakarta. The result of analysis indicates that research and public protest are two primary strategies implemented by Greenpeace. The third article examines the position of South Korean government in regards to the Korean wave movement. It observes the success stories of Korean wave to enter the global market. The fourth paper analyzes the ASEAN Way as a medium to resolve the South China Sea dispute. This writing views the issue from constructivism perspective. The fifth article studies a competition among actors in the Indian Ocean Region (IOR) to gain control over resources in the area. It proposes a solution to establish cooperation through joint development resources. The sixth paper focuses on analysis of Indonesian palm oil market share in India. The author attempts to find out the causes of decreasing market share. The final article of this edition investigates the case of human trafficking in Lampung coastal area, Indonesia. It aims to understand the model of cooperation in human trafficking case in that region. Finally, the editorial board of AJIS would like to express our gratitude and appreciation to editors, reviewers and contributors for their valuable time and dedication to this latest publication. Their support and assistance is very vital to maintain the quality of AJIS articles. Hopefully, this publication would bring fresh insights and effective problem-solving ideas in international studies.
