Abstract

This study aims to analyze the framing of Jokowi in international online media, which shows how the media frames Jokowi through the news they write. There are two research questions that the researcher wants to explore: (1) How does international online news media frame President Joko Widodo? (2) What are the differences in the framing of Jokowi by the international media during his first and second terms? This study used a qualitative approach with the framing method based on data from international media outlets, namely CNN, The Guardian, and The New York Times. The articles were published between 2014 and 2019, and the data was analyzed to identify the framing patterns used by international media during Jokowi's leadership. The researcher used Robert Entman's framing theory, which consists of four main elements, namely defining problems, diagnosing causes, moral judgment, and suggesting remedies. The researcher selected several articles discussing Jokowi during his 10 years in office. The data was taken from three international media outlets, namely CNN, The Guardian, and The New York Times. The data was then analyzed using Entman's framing theory to see how the media framed Jokowi's leadership. The results of this study show that the international media framed Jokowi during his presidency through two narratives. The first narrative frames Jokowi as a president who focuses on economic development and infrastructure projects. The second narrative highlights various issues in Indonesia related to Jokowi's policies, such as human rights, the state of democracy, and the dynamics of elections in Indonesia. This study also found differences in framing between Jokowi's first and second terms. In the first term (2014-2019), Jokowi was represented as a leader who was close to the people and not from the elite. Meanwhile, in the second term (2019-2024), the international media tended to be more critical in framing Jokowi, highlighting issues such as the decline of democracy, freedom of expression for civil society, and dynastic politics. Overall, this study shows that international media framing of Jokowi's leadership has evolved in line with political dynamics in Indonesia.
