    10 Authors Based in Indonesia, India, and the United States. The article Innovation and Creative Entrepreneurship Management in Supporting Cultural Tourism at UNESCO World Heritage Sites by Rafinita Aditia and Thomas Kano highlights how creative entrepreneurship becomes a driving force in strengthening cultural tourism, particularly in UNESCO-designated areas where the balance between heritage preservation and economic innovation is essential.

The theme of adaptation to broader global and economic pressures continues in Untangling Nickel Downstreaming: A Political Economy Analysis of Indonesia’s Morowali Industrial Park by Jordy Jordy, where the discussion shifts toward the extractive industry, revealing how state policies, global capital flows, and industrial complexes like Morowali transform local economies and labor structures in Indonesia.
