To examine how governance capacity across five analytical dimensions influences the execution of blue economy development policies in coastal East Nusa Tenggara.
Conducted a qualitative case study utilizing semi-structured, in-depth interviews with five key informants in East Nusa Tenggara Province, Indonesia.
Combined field observations with an institutional evaluation of regional policy documents, including Long-Term and Medium-Term Regional Development Plans, across five theoretical dimensions: collective action, coordination, resilience, learning, and resources.
Governance capacity is poor and sub-optimal across all five dimensions, resulting in actual marine exports reaching only US$6.24 billion despite an estimated marine economic potential of US$1.33 trillion.
Structural deficiencies among the five governance dimensions act interdependently, creating a self-reinforcing vicious cycle that impedes effective blue economy implementation.
