DECIPHERING FINLAND’S PIVOT NEOCLASSICAL REALISM AND THE DECISION TO JOIN NATO IN 2022<b></b>
Isi Artikel Utama
Abstrak
Penelitian ini mengkaji keputusan Finlandia untuk bergabung dengan NATO pada tahun 2022 melalui perspektif Realisme Neoklasik, menganalisis interaksi antara ancaman sistemik dan faktor-faktor politik domestik. Dengan menggunakan metode kualitatif, termasuk tinjauan pustaka dan wawancara para ahli, penelitian ini menyelidiki bagaimana pergeseran dinamika kekuatan regional, yang dipicu oleh ekspansi NATO ke arah timur dan tindakan militer Rusia, menciptakan tekanan sistemik. Bersamaan dengan itu, framing media domestik, opini publik, dan perdebatan elite memediasi pengaruh eksternal ini, yang membentuk respons kebijakan luar negeri Finlandia. Temuan penelitian mengungkapkan bahwa konvergensi ancaman keamanan sistemik dan dinamika politik domestik mendorong poros strategis, yang menggambarkan signifikansi aktor domestik dan persepsi dalam kebijakan luar negeri negara kecil dalam kondisi ancaman sistemik. Penelitian ini memajukan pemahaman tentang pembentukan aliansi dengan mengintegrasikan analisis level sistemik dan domestik, yang memberikan wawasan berharga tentang keamanan regional dan peran NATO yang terus berkembang di Eropa.
