William Liddle Goldie Shabad Richard Gunther Adviser Donald G. McCloud Department of Political Science ACKNOWLEDGMENT Various institutions and individuals helped me in completing this study. It is with my great pleasure to acknowledge their generous support. First of all, I should express my gratitude to Professor R. William Liddle who helped me in many ways both as a teacher and as an adviser. His teachings has shaped my understanding of the politics of the Third World in general and Indonesian politics in particular. His willingness to exchange ideas on the contemporary Indonesian politics from various perspectives has widen my horizon and made my academic endeavour at Ohio State more meaningful and rewarding. I benefitted the advise of my reading committee in developing and improving of the arguments throughout this study. Professor R. William Liddle helped me to grasp the competing models of understanding of Indonesian and encouraged me to make my own decision on the proper way of comprehending the political behavior in Indonesia. Professor Goldie Shabad also helped me in her own capacity both as teacher and adviser since the beginning of my study at the Ohio State, especially when Professor Liddle was away from ii Columbus. I am very grateful to her generous support. 1 am also indebted to Professor Richard Gunther who made critical comments on the draft of this dissertation. Professor Donald G. McCloud is also very genereous of providing his time to correct my ideas as well my "Indonesian" English. I am very grateful for his support. I am also indebted to the MUCIA-Indonesia World Bank IX and World Bank XVII projects, the Ford Foundation, the MUCIA office of the Ohio state University, and the Department of Political Science, at Ohio State University. These institutions provided fundings for my study as well as my research. While doing field research in Indonesia, I benefitted the assistance of several individuals. I must thank the team of Gadjah Mada University students who shared, for only a limited monetary compensation, all the experiences from collection to tabulation of the data. Bambang Purwoko and his team proved to be a very capable assistants delivered high quality interviews and teamwork. I am thankful to them. I am also thankful to local officials, head of the Sub- Distric fcamat), the three Lurah (Village Head) and their staffs (Pamongl as well as numerous village leaders and common people for their valuable contribution. I can not, regretfully, mention the name of those officials to protect identity. iii i I an deeply Indebted to Drs. Josef Riwukaho, MPA., Dean of the Faculty of Social and Political Science, Gadjah Mada University for giving ne the opportunity to take a study leave. My colleagues at the Department of Government gave me the necessary support and encouragement. Mr. Mariun and Drs. Josef Riwukaho, MPA., are the two people who brought me to the academic world. Zt is a great pleasure for me to express my gratitude to both of these teachers. The list of individuals who contributted is too long to be adressed in full. Nevertheless I must take an exception to express my gratitude to Dr. M. Amien Rais of the Faculty of Social and Political Science, Gadjah Mada University. His support and friendship is very difficult to be revealed in a few words. I am also indebted to Dr. Don G. McCloud and Dr. Terry Begalke, both of MUCIA-Indonesia projects, the Ohio State University, and Dr. Jean Taylor of MUCIA-Indonesia of Madison, Wisconsin. I also must thank several friends. M. Ryaas Rasyid of IIP/Northern Illinois is a sepecial one, he always lending his hand when I need it. Riswandha Imawan encourages me when I am in despair. Budi Rahardjo and his wife(Nunuk), Biran Sarbiran, Yohannes Esomar, Sang Ming Sohn, and Chang Oh. Their friendship helped my life in Columbus less severe. iv To all those individuals, I am grateful. If there is something meaningful in this endeavour, credits must be due to them. All deficiencies of this work are clearly my responsibility. Finally, I am very fortunate to have wonderful family. My wife, Sudjiatmi Purwaningsih (Ning), has to take the burden of becoming a mother and a father of our two children while I am not home. My two children, Nina Ulfah Nulatutadjie and Erlangga Gaffar, are full of understanding by letting their father to be away. They have sacrificed a lot. Therefore, I dedicate this work to my wonderful Ning, Nina and Erlangga. v VITA June 21, 1947................. Born - Tente, Bima, KTB Indonesia 1969...........................

    CURRENT DATA ON THE INDONESIAN MILITARY ELITE (Prepared by the Editors) In the past, the editors have periodically prepared lists of officers holding key positions in the Indonesian Armed Forces to keep readers abreast of developments. The present list (updated to early February 1982) follows the format adopted in pre­ vious listings--namely, the full official organizational structure of the Department of Defense and Security, including all the various agencies under the minister’s supervision; the staff and command hierarchy of the Army down to the Kodam (Ter­ ritorial Command) level; and the Head of Bakin (State Intelligence Coordination Agency), a post directly subordinate to the President. As in our previous listing (Indonesia, No. 29 [April 1980]), we present some tentative preliminary comments on structural changes in the military hierarchy, and on the "politics of succession." I. Structural Changes In our last listing we discussed changes in the military high command in terms of centralization, Javanization, divisional and service affiliation, and generational stratification. These still seem the most relevant dimensions for any useful struc­ tural analysis. Centralization. We considered this question in terms of the power and author­ ity, first of President Suharto himself, and then of Defense Minister Yusuf, vis-S- vis the military hierarchy as a whole. With regard to the President, we commented in early 1980 on the extraordinarily long incumbency of particular key offices by certain trusted confidants, all of whom, by no means accidentally, seem disadvan­ taged in a succession competition by reason of religious or ethnic background. Over the past two yedrs, none of these men has been displaced.

The introduction of democratic elections in Indonesia after the downfall of Soeharto’s authoritarian New Order regime in 1998 has triggered intensive scholarly debate about the competitiveness, credibility, and representative- ness of these elections. Understandably, discussion has focused mainly on the primary actors in the elections – parties, individual candidates, and voters. In particular, authors have analysed the linkage between leadership, polit- ico-religious cleavages, and voting patterns (Liddle and Mujani 2007), or the extent to which voters are influenced by financial incentives when casting their ballots (Hadiz 2008b). But this concentration on voting behaviour and electoral outcomes has shifted attention away from another development that is at least as significant in shaping Indonesia’s new democracy: the remark- able proliferation of opinion pollsters and political consultants. Ten years after the resignation of long-time autocrat Soeharto, a whole army of advis- ers informs the political elite about the electorate’s expectations, hopes, and demands. Indeed, public opinion polling has acquired such importance that no candidate running for public office can afford to ignore it, and voters have consistently punished those who thought they could. The central role of opinion polls in post-Soeharto politics – and the diver- sity of views expressed in them – have challenged much of the conventional wisdom about the Indonesian electorate.

  • Richard Rose Lecture in Pittsburgh 1976
    Richard Rose Lecture in Pittsburgh 1976 The following transcription is from Richard Rose’s 1976 lecture in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. If you like the dynamism and spontaneity of Richard Rose as speaker and teacher, please read his books, which are available at www.rosepublications.net or www.tatfoundation.org. * * * Mike Whitely: I'd like to say good evening and welcome you to this Pyramid Zen lecture. Our lecturer tonight will be Richard Rose, author of The Albigen Papers, founder of the Albigen System... I'd like to say that we have a man with us tonight that's a rarity in the field of religious and philosophical and transcendental evaluations. Richard Rose, I think, has acquired this unique position, not through the granting of some title, or not through degrees or not from libraries, but as a direct result of years of personal research and evaluation. During this time he took a look at a tremendous number of systems and methods and teachers, and explored quite a few different philosophies and religions all in the hope of finding some kernel of truth or some path that might lead to some kernel of truth. From his teens, Mr. Rose has always had a profound interest in finding Truth. This lead to seeking, looking for different systems and methods, and during the search Mr. Rose encountered and investigated, evaluated Christian theology, various Yogic systems, different cults and movements, and just generally [did a] tremendous amount of philosophic and psychological evaluation. His personal search culminated at age 32 when his conviction and persistence brought him to an experience that he considered direct seeing into man's ultimate nature.

The growth, strength and inter- supportiveness of these four pillars are key to spreading of the Swaminarayan Faith. Lord Shree Swaminarayan has acknowledged these pillars and laid down the key responsibilities for each of the pillars. He instructed his Nand-Santos to write Shastras which helped the devotees to perform devotion (Bhakti), acquire true knowledge (Gnan), practice righteous living (Dharma) and develop non- attachment to every thing material except Supreme God, Lord Shree Swaminarayan (Vairagya). There are nine types of bhakti, of which, Lord Shree Swaminarayan has singled out Kirtan Bhakti as one of the most important and fundamental in our devotion to God.

Barker, Associate Professor, Department of Political Science ii A POLITICAL STORY OF POLITICAL TRUST: INSTITUTIONAL SETTINGS, POLITICAL PERFORMANCE, AND POLITICAL TRUST IN EAST ASIA Qing Yang, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2012 Political trust is indispensable for effective government operation and regime stability. The endemic low levels of political trust observed in many democracies have raised some important questions: Why do people trust or distrust political institutions? What are the sources of political trust? Literature on political trust is extensive, but generally suffers from two common limitations. First, most studies on trust have focused on either political culture or political economy as the main sources of political trust. The real political sources of trust have been missing from current discussions. Second, most research on political trust excludes non- democratic societies. The high levels of political trust in authoritarian societies have been treated as an anomaly.

When Subandrio went to China in 1965, Nasution suggested that if China really wanted to help Indonesia, she should cut off supplies to Hongkong. According to Nasution, BK was serious about Maphilindo but Aidit convinced him that he was a world leader, not just a regional leader. In 1960 BK became head of Peperti which made him very influential in the AD with authority over the regional commanders. In 1962 N was replaced by Yani. According to the original concept, N would become Menteri Hankam/Panglima ABRI. However Omar Dhani wrote a letter to BK (probably proposed by Subandrio or BK himself). Sukarno (chief of police) supported Omar Dhani secara besar). Only Martadinata defended to original plan while Yani was 'plin-plan'. Meanwhile Nasution had proposed Gatot Subroto as the new Kasad but BK rejected this because he felt that he could not menguasai Gatot. Nas then proposed the two Let.Gens. - Djatikusuma and Hidayat but they were rejected by BK.
