Penelitian ini memiliki argumen yang menyatakan bahwa praktik electoral authoritarian regime yang dilakukan oleh rezim pemerintahan Hun Sen dan Cambodia Peoples Party CPP berdampak terhadap persaingannya dengan Cambodia National Rescue Party CNRP. Adapun, klaim tersebut didasarkan pada sejumlah temuan selama pemilu tahun 2013 berlangsung yang menunjukkan bahwa CPP cenderung menerapkan strategi intimidasi politik, penyalahgunaan sumber daya negara serta praktik-praktik kecurangan, seperti vote buying, manipulasi suara, hingga hal yang bersifat administratif seperti hilangnya nama sejumlah masyarakat Kamboja dari daftar pemilih. Hal tersebut yang kemudian turut memengaruhi munculnya persaingan yang tidak berimbang antara CPP dan CNRP. Untuk itu, perspektif teoritis yang digunakan sebagai landasan analisis adalah teori electoral authoritarian regime oleh Andrea Schedler dan teori competitive authoritarianism yang dicetuskan oleh Steven Levitsky dan Lucan Way.

This research argues that the electoral authoritarian regime run by Hun Sen and the Cambodia Peoples Party CPP had an impact on his competition with the Cambodia National Rescue Party CNRP. This argument is based on the findings during the 2013 elections, in which the CPP were guilty of political intimidation, abuse of state resources, vote buying and administrative matters such as the loss of the names of several Cambodian people from the voter list. All these things resulted in an unfair competition between the CPP and the CNRP. The theoretical perspective used in this research is the electoral authoritarian regime theory Andrea Schedler and competitive authoritarianism theory by Steven Levitsky dan Lucan Way.

International labour migration can be characterized in three ways — as human aspiration, tradition, and necessity. For some people, working overseas is a dream. For others, international labour mobility is a tradition. For a great number of people, however, international labour migration is an economic necessity. It is the only viable solution to realize their basic human right to a decent life.

Following Heonik Kwon, this article explores the social and cultural underpinnings of the Cold War (and Cambodia’s stance of neutrality in relation to it) as illustrated through the life of a colorful Cambodian monk, Dharmawara Mahathera. Long resident in India, Dharmawara became a confidant of Norodom Sihanouk as the latter negotiated independence and Cambodia’s new geopolitical realities. Dharmawara was one point of connection between Sihanouk and India at the time Sihanouk was drawn to a position of neutrality and to the Non-Aligned Movement associated with Jawaharlal Nehru and Zhou Enlai, and his story illuminates some of the cultural interface underlying the politics. He would assume a profile in emerging institutions of international Buddhism, such as the World Fellowship of Buddhists, which in their own way related to developing geopolitics. He subsequently attracted the attention of American diplomats in Cambodia in ways that illustrate something of how the Cold War came to be negotiated on the ground. His tensions with the Cambodian monastic hierarchy help us better understand the latter’s role at a historical conjuncture. I argue that Dharmawara helps us understand Sihanouk’s emerging philosophy of “Buddhist socialism.”
