  • Adam Malik (Deppen) in MEMORIAM: ADAM MALIK A917-1984)
    144 Adam Malik (Deppen) IN MEMORIAM: ADAM MALIK a917-1984) Ruth T. McVey The great survivor is dead. Though Adam Malik was by no means the only politician to hold high office under both Guided Democracy and the New Order, he was by far the most distinguished and successful. Others were political hacks with no true political coloring, or representatives of specialized con­ stituencies not involved directly in the conflict between Sukarno and the army; but Malik had been a central figure in the formulation of Guided Democracy and a close counsellor of Sukarno. Moreover, having chosen against that leader in the crisis following the coup of October 1965, he was not thereby completely discredited in the eyes of his former colleagues. For many of his old leftist associates he remained a patron: a leader who would still receive and could occasionally aid them, who could still speak their language, if only in private, and who still—in spite of his evident wealth, Western admirers, and service to a counter-revolutionary regime—seemed to embody what remained of the Generation of ’45, the fading memories of a radical and optimistic youth. To survive so successfully, a man must either be most simple and consistent, or quite the opposite. No one could accuse Adam Malik of transparency, yet there was a consistency about the image he cultivated. From early youth he appeared as a radical nationalist, a man of the left; and however unsympathetic the regime to that viewpoint he never allowed the pursuit of ambition completely to cloud that picture.

Islam has a comprehensive concept in all aspects of life, one of the aspect is politics (siyasa) that discusses the concept of the state, the exercise of power, who deserves to exercise power, how much power they can have, and the characteristics and objectives of Islamic politics itself. Political party is a superstructure in a political system that carries out several strategic functions, including political socialization, political recruitment, political articulation and aggregation of interests. Political party also has an important position in the policy making process. This article aims to analyze how the dynamics of Islamic politics in Indonesia in the middle of multicultural society by carrying out its function as an articulator and aggregator of interests. Keywords : Islamic political party, multicultural society, political system Abstrak Islam tidak terbatas pada agama yang hanya berbicara tentang Tuhan. Islam memiliki konsep yang komprehensif dalam semua aspek kehidupan, salah satu aspeknya adalah politik (siyasa) yang membahas konsep negara, pelaksanaan kekuasaan, yang berhak menggunakan kekuasaan, berapa banyak kekuatan yang dapat mereka miliki, dan karakteristik serta tujuan politik Islam itu sendiri.

INDONESIAN POLITICS 1964-5 Peter Christian Hauswedell The passing of the Orde Lama in Indonesia and the death of Presi­ dent Sukarno seem too recent, and political emotions are still too high to arrive at a definitive characterization of the nature of the political system and its leader. The apparent contradictions between the ideological dynamism and the social conservatism1 of Guided Democ­ racy, the lack of conclusive evidence about Sukarno’s final political intentions, and the chaotic, even apocalyptic period before the sudden demise of the system a ll contribute to the d iffic u lt y of c la s s ific a ­ tion. Finally, the dramatic events around the October 1, 1965 coup attempt have distracted our attention unduly. In Indonesia itself, the political atmosphere does not yet allow an objective assessment of the period. Since nearly all members of the present elite were in one way or another deeply involved in the events of that time, there are few publications about the period, and they have been rather polemical and unsystematic.2 Any study which contributes to our knowledge of Sukarno and Indo­ nesian p o lit ic s before the coup is therefore more than welcome, and John D. Legge’s recent political biography of the former President3 is the first ambitious attempt to portray this certainly complex, and often contradictory political leader.1* Although solid in factual 1.

Indonesian Historiography in the New Order (274 pp.) Director of Thesis: William H. Frederick This thesis discusses one central problem: What happened to Indonesian historiography in the New Order (1966-98)? To analyze the problem, the author studies the connections between the major themes in his intellectual autobiography and those in the metahistory of the regime. Proceeding in chronological and thematic manner, the thesis comes in three parts. Part One presents the author’s intellectual autobiography, which illustrates how, as a member of the generation of people who grew up in the New Order, he came into contact with history. Part Two examines the genealogy of and the major issues at stake in the post-New Order controversy over the rectification of history. Part Three ends with several concluding observations. First, the historiographical engineering that the New Order committed was not effective. Second, the regime created the tools for people to criticize itself, which shows that it misunderstood its own society. Third, Indonesian contemporary culture is such that people abhor the idea that there is no single truth.

  • Indonesia Has Held General Elections Many Times from 1955 to 2019. The
    LEGAL REGULATIONS FOR THE GENERAL ELECTION SYSTEM IN INDONESIA FROM THE 1955 ELECTION TO THE CONCURRENT ELECTION OF 2019 Mahesa Rannie1 Abstract: Indonesia has held general elections many times from 1955 to 2019. The arrangement of the electoral system in Indonesia always changes from time to time in each election administration. In the process of changing the laws and the regulations for every election, there has always been legal political dynamics. After the 2014 elections, there have been changes regarding the conduct of elections in Indonesia. The Constitutional Court (MK) granted the petition for a judicial review of Law Number 42 of 2008 concerning the Election of President and Vice President in 2014, so that the implementation of elections in Indonesia entered a new phase in 2019 and beyond. In 2019, for the first time Indonesia held simultaneous elections. The methodology used in this study is normative. The approaches used in this study are the historical approach, the statute approach, the legal analysis approach, and the conceptual approach. Legal arrangements regarding the conduct of elections always change, starting from the highest level of legislative regulations to the lowest (from the laws to the General Election Commission regulations, presidential decrees, ministerial regulations, or other regulations). The changes in the regulations regarding the implementation of elections in Indonesia have been present since the time of the 1955 elections until the 2019 elections. Since the implementation of the 1955 elections, Indonesia has always practiced a proportional electoral system, the electoral system that is considered suitable to be applied in Indonesia. This proportional electoral system is practiced with various modifications (both the open proportional electoral system and the closed proportional system).

As the largest Islamic party in Indonesian history, Masyumi was well known by many as the champion of democracy and one of the essential elements in the nationalist movement. However, regarding pluralism, for some, Masyumi positive attitude on this matter has been doubtful, regarding this party as the guru of intolerance for some contemporary Islamic organisations. By exploring the ideals and practical aspects of this party, this article wants to show the nature of Masyumi’s view and attitude in answering political diversity that in the long run indicates the real position of this party in pluralism in politics. The discussion indicates that despite some weaknesses in undergoing the spirit of honouring diversity, in particular when dealing with the communists, Masyumi, in general, had proven its position as one of the essential elements in Indonesian political history that in many ways eager to develop and maintain the spirit of pluralism. [Tulisan ini mendiskusikan perihal respons Masyumi terhadap pluralisme, khususnya terkait dengan politik keragaman dalam rentang limabelas tahun setelah Indonesia merdeka.

In this paper, the term "Indonesian coup" is used inter- changeably with "The 30 September Movement ," mainly for the sake of variety. It is technically correct to refer to the events in lndonesia as a "coup" in the literal sense of the word, meaning "a sudden, forceful stroke in politics." To the extent that the word has been accepted in common usage to mean "the sudden and forcible overthrow - of the government ," however, it may be misleading.

  • Does Papua Need Local Parties?
    The Indonesian Electoral System Development: Does Papua Need Local Parties? Abdul Basid Fuadi 1 and Zaka Firma Aditya 2 {[email protected] 1, [email protected] 2} Center for Research and Case Analysis, The Constitutional Court of the Republic of Indonesia 12 Abstract. Indonesia has three special region and one capital city, namely Aceh, Yogyakarta, Papua, and Jakarta. Each special region has its unique and privileges. The enactment of Law Number 21 the year of 2001 has proven that the state acknowledged the existence of Papua as special region. This regulation gives Papua privileged in special autonomy to manage its region including in the process and mechanism of General Election, as Indonesia Constitution 1945 stipulated the freedom of speech, gather, and protect the rights of every citizen to fight for their rights communally to develop the society and state. The problem is, there was a case in 2019 where a Local Political Party in Papua was rejected to join the General Election due to the lack of Local Regulation specifically regulating the formation of Local Parties in Papua. Meanwhile, in the 2019 General Election, Aceh (as another Special Region) has one Local Political Party that participated the election. It seems that there is an inequal position amongst special region. This paper aims to analyze the legal reasoning and urgency of the local parties’ formation in Papua because it has the privileges to do so. The research method of this paper uses statute and conceptual approach. Keywords: Local Party; Papua; Special Region; Aceh; Asymmetric Decentralization 1 Introduction A political party is an organized group whose members have the same orientation, values, and ideals that have political power and seize political position by constitutional means to carry out its program.

    Conditions for Moderation: Unpacking the Inclusion Experience of Islamist Parties in Three Different Political Systems in Indonesia A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Sri Murniati August 2008 2 © 2008 Sri Murniati All Rights Reserved 3 This thesis is titled Conditions for Moderation: Unpacking the Inclusion Experience of Islamist Parties in Three Different Political Systems in Indonesia by SRI MURNIATI has been approved for the Department of Political Science and the College of Arts and Sciences by Julie A. White Associate Professor of Political Science Benjamin M. Ogles Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 4 ABSTRACT MURNIATI, SRI, M.A., August 2008, Political Science Conditions for Moderation: Unpacking Inclusion Experience of Islamist Parties in Three Different Political Systems in Indonesia (63 pp.) Director of Thesis: Julie A. White Inclusion of Islamist parties in the political process has been assumed to generate moderation of their ideological outlook because it provides opportunities to undergo political learning and recalculate their strategies. However, inclusion of Islamist parties in three different political systems in Indonesia shows that inclusion does not necessarily result in moderation, under certain condition it even appears to result in radicalization. This thesis hypothesizes that the different impact of inclusion on the moderation of Islamist parties results from the manner in which they are included in the political process. To prove the hypothesis, the thesis explores the process of inclusion of Islamist parties in the legislative and executive politics of three different political systems in Indonesia (Representative Democracy of 1956-1959, Authoritarian Regime of 1971- 1998, and New Democracy of 1998-2004).
