Abstract

This research examines Indonesia's role through preventive diplomacy in the South China Sea dispute in 2021. The dynamics of the South China Sea dispute have endangered the territorial integrity and sovereignty of surrounding countries, especially Indonesia. This research focuses on the preventive diplomacy carried out by Indonesia in the South China Sea dispute. Indonesia took a role in the South China Sea dispute through the Workshop on Managing Potential Conflict in the South China Sea. The aim is to prevent political escalation and conflict. This research uses descriptive qualitative research methods to understand and find out problems or phenomena. This research uses preventive diplomacy theory and conflict resolution theory. Preventive diplomacy has an important role in preventing conflict from recurring. Meanwhile, in conflict resolution theory, this research uses the Circle of Conflict model to look at conflict resolution strategies. So that the South China Sea dispute does not spread further and breaks the chain of conflict that was initially tense between China and the countries involved, it becomes relatively more conducive and discussions seek solutions through mutually beneficial cooperation. The result of this research is that a Workshop on Managing Potential Conflict in the South China Sea, which was initiated by Indonesia, created stronger relations between the countries in dispute. Strengthening this relationship creates values or strengthens each other's beliefs. Apart from that, Indonesia also carries out security cooperation efforts both bilaterally and multilaterally with Southeast Asian countries.
