POLITICS & NATIONAL DEFENSE

Abstract

The national defense policy is implemented by taking into account: a. Maintain a dynamic national state, increase resilience, and build a national defense capability and strength that is in accordance with the needs and capabilities of the state. b. increasing international cooperation in efforts to prevent and maintain peace as well as fostering regional cooperation to increase regional resilience and security in the Southeast Asian region. Thus, this anthology is present as evidence of the Tri Dharma Eka Karma study and strengthens the determination of the political system towards national defense. In addition to concepts and theories, the implementation in the field related to the study of national defense politics by the author and his team is presented systematically based on normative and empirical data so that it is expected to be a reference for academics who conduct research and training in the fields of politics and defense. This anthology is of course still far from perfect, for that input in the form of criticism and suggestions is requested, so that in the future the author is able to produce even better written works.
