Many other people travelled with me, contributing to the suc- cess of my learning process and making my tough journey also a pleasant one. They invested their time and energy, sharing their intelligence in my research endeavour. There are far too many people to thank, without whom this project would not have materialised. I am fortunate to have received several years of funding from an interdisciplinary research program called ‘Towards Environmentally Sustainable and Equitable Palm Oil’ funded by the Interdisciplinary Research and Education Fund (INREF) of Wageningen University. When I started considering PhD research, I could not imagine that I would finally embark on a six- year journey of research and writing. I would say that in these six years, it has been a luxury to spend most of my time working as a researcher, while also struggling to secure a livelihood from short-time assignments. I am indebted to my daily supervisor Dr Otto Hospes and my promotor Prof. Dr C. J. A. M. Termeer. Both Katrien and Otto have been incredibly generous with their time and advice to guide and support me in writing the proposal, the academic articles and the dissertation. I enjoyed the freedom to think and develop a perspective on sustainability in the controversial palm oil sector from a Southern viewpoint. Their insightful questions and challenges pushed me to my limits in developing an academic contribution in my dissertation, particularly at points in time when I was most uncertain about what to do next. I am particularly grateful for their patient willingness to help me work through problems arising in the research and writing, and for their offering of concrete suggestions on how to go about refining the logic of an argument, restructuring the organisation of a chapter, or even conducting field interviews. Their careful reading of each draft chapter of the work enormously improved the dissertation in this final version. Today, I feel that I have taken a big leap from the first supervision meeting in the first week of September 2012 when Katrien asked a question about the theory that I would use. Special thanks go to my friend and mentor the late Dr I. Wibowo Wibisono who until his last days still asked me when I would start doing a PhD, Dr B. Herry Priyono who provided continuous support academically and emotionally, Dr P. Sunu Hardiyanto who welcomed me to the Centre for Environment Study Sanata Dharma University (CESDU) in Yogyakarta, and Dr Enade Perdana Istyastono as the Head of CESDU. The status as an Associate Researcher at CESDU helped to open the network of information especially where suspicions surrounding the motives of foreign organisations might have derailed the research. Behind this achieve- ment, there are also the gurus in the topics of palm oil in Indonesia: Dr Asril Darussamin, Dr Fadhil Hassan, Achmad Manggabarani and Dr. Rosediana Suharto. All of this support enabled me to continue the legacy of my uncle I.J. Kasimo (1900-1986), who assumed key positions in the Indonesian state from 1945 to the early 1960s including the Minister of Agri- culture and the Minister of People Welfare. vi My colleagues at the Public Administration and Policy Group, Wageningen University, were integral to the completion of my journey. Tante Maarit Junnikkala was always ready to assist with everything that guaranteed the continuation of my research. My colleagues from INREF – SUSPENSE Project were a constant source of ideas and encouragement: Greetje Schouten, Sakti Hutabarat, Kartika Pamungkas, KhunYing Somjai Nupueng, Reonaldus Paembonan, Elena Degli Innocenti, Aom Sirilak Somnuek, Kanokwan Saswattecha, Ahmad Dermawan, and Dian Afriyanti. The excellent team of the Public Administration and Policy Group is a superb collective, providing both a challenging academic atmosphere and friendship: Bren- da Shenute, Rebecca Sarku, Sumit Vij, Timothy Karpouzoglou, Art Dewulf, (Sylvia) Karls- son-Vinkhuyzen, Jeroen Candel, Tamara Metze, Robbert Biesbroek, Gerard Breeman and Sabina Stiller, Jonna Gjaltema, Marijn Faling, and Wieke Pot. Sisters and brothers that I met during the research –Louise Nakagawa, Zulfiya Mamatova, Irene Hadiprayitno, Fransesco Cecchi, Yohanes Sondang Kunto, Emilius Pangalajo Sudirjo, Iman K. Nawireja, Aritta Suwar- no and Agung Prasetyo, Albert Serramontmany Hugas, and others – I will miss my time with them in Wageningen. There are also dear friends that stay connected with me and provide abundant emotional and intellectual support: Rini Astuti, Theresia Wuryantari, Hasti Tarekat, Rini Hanifa, Willem Pattinasarany, Nugroho Pratomo, Kahardityo, Rio Rovihandono, Sugeng Bahagijo, Darmawan Triwibowo, and friends and colleagues from Inrise that helped me to ensure the execution and completion of short-term projects for keeping my kitchen smoking, and all my friends that kept giving me support during the study. Conducting field research about the state in Indonesia was both the most challenging and the most rewarding part of this project. I am grateful to people that were helpful in providing pathways to information networks for me, particularly to Hanni Adiati, Dr. Ermanto Faham- syah, Tiur Rumondang, Dr. Samasta Pradhana, Doloksaribu, Rukaiyah Rofiq, Ruddy Lumu- ru, Rudi Putra, Zaidina Abas, the late Dani Dityawan, Octo Wibisono, the late Dr. Bambang Dradjat, Andi Isvandiar Muluk, Vanda, Meynar Sihombing, Desi Kusumadewi, Abdul Aziz, Dr. Herdradjat, Ibu Mia, Dr. Dinna Wisnu, Dr. Denni Puspa Purbasari, and many others. Thank you very much for opening the gate to the networks of state actors, companies, and practitioners related to the topics that I wrote on. I am deeply grateful to all my interviewees who gifted me with insights and personal experiences to guide me to new sources of informa- tion and to understand the nuances and complexities of the Indonesian state in sustainable palm oil issues. For someone whose mastering of the English language is far from perfect, I very often find it difficult to conform my writing to the rules and expression of this language. I must thank the editorial assistance provided by Shane Guthrie, Katrina Lawrence and Joy Burrough who helped to make my English text understandable and publishable. My wife, Beatrix Kusuma Ayuwardani Seran is my hero, giving me complete support, even at times when I imagine doing so was not easy. I also want to thank my family: my parents, Matheus Sanyoto and Caecilia Sukarti, who sowed the seed for seizing intellectual endeavour everywhere it is, my sister Anastasia Pratiwi and her husband Victorianus Susapto, my broth- er Cornelius Tri Prasetyo, my mother Gabriella Achti, my sisters and brothers Wenny, Dion and Dismas, and many others who all encouraged me during this research. vii Table of Contents Chapter 1 ....................................................................................................................1 1.1.

A 132m tower in the centre of Merdeka Square in Central Jakarta, build to commemorate the struggle for Indonesian independence. To me, it symbolises the first acquaintance of Indonesia with building a democratic state: The short democratic experience, right before Sukarno’s Guided Democracy. As you can see, the picture on the cover is still quite blurry. After a long period of harsh ruling, Indonesia is granted a second chance in building a democratic state. During my brief time in Jakarta, I met many people who still struggle, every day, in pursuit of their democracy. My hope is that they will continue to do so and that their democracy will be proven solid, casted in bronze as it were, as reflected by the second picture. Separated by many miles.

    Indonesia's Accountability Trap: Party Cartels and Presidential Power after Democratic Transition Dan Slater1 Idolization and "Immediate Help!": Campaigning as if Voters Mattered On July 14, 2004, just nine days after Indonesia's first-ever direct presidential election, a massive inferno ripped through the impoverished, gang-infested district of Tanah Abang in central Jakarta. Hundreds of dwellings were destroyed and over a thousand Jakartans were rendered homeless. While such catastrophes are nothing unusual in the nation's chaotic capital, the political responses suggested that some interesting changes are afoot in Indonesia's fledgling electoral democracy. The next day, presidential frontrunner Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) took a break from watching his burgeoning vote totals at the five-star Borobodur Hotel to visit Tanah Abang's fire victims. Since he had just clinched pole position in Indonesia's run-off presidential election in late September, SBY's public appearance made fantastic copy. The handsome former general comforted distraught families, then crept, head and shoulders protruding through the sunroof of his campaign minivan, through a swarm of star-struck locals. Never mind the knock-off reality-television program screening for talent just a few miles away at the swanky Semanggi shopping complex; here, in one of Jakarta's least swanky settings, appeared to be the true Indonesian Idol. 1 This article draws on a comparative project with Marc Craighead, conversations and collaboration with whom have been invaluable in refining the theoretical arguments presented here. It has also greatly benefited from the thoughtful comments of Jamie Davidson, Dirk Tomsa, and an anonymous reviewer at Indonesia; the savvy and sensitive editing of Deborah Homsher; and generous fieldwork support from the Academy for Educational Development, Emory University, and the Ford Foundation.

  • INDONESIA in 2000 a Shaky Start for Democracy
    INDONESIA IN 2000 A Shaky Start for Democracy R. William Liddle At the end of 1999 Indonesia appeared to have com- pleted a successful transition to democracy after more than four decades of dictatorship. Free elections had been held for the national legislature (DPR, Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat). The People’s Consultative Assembly (MPR, Majelis Permusyawaratan Rakyat), a uniquely Indonesian institution com- prising members of the DPR plus regional and group representatives, had chosen a new president, the charismatic traditionalist Muslim cleric Abdur- rahman Wahid (called Gus Dur) and vice-president, Megawati Sukarnoputri, daughter of Indonesia’s founding father and first president Sukarno, for the 1999–2004 term. Gus Dur, whose Partai Kebangkitan Bangsa (PKB, Na- tional Awakening Party) holds only 11% of the DPR seats, had then ap- pointed a national unity cabinet consisting of representatives of all of the major parties. Twelve months later, Gus Dur is widely regarded, both at home and abroad, as a failed president. He narrowly escaped dismissal by the MPR, which met for its first annual session in August 2000. Most observers and politicians concur that his personal legitimacy continues to decline and that the main obstacle to his removal now is fear that his likely replacement, Megawati, would be an even worse president. This extraordinary fall is largely the consequence of Gus Dur’s own disas- trous choices. He has been unwilling to act like a politician in a democracy, that is, to build a broad base of support and adopt a set of policies responsive to the interests of this constituency. Instead, he has acted impulsively and inconsistently, often without consulting his own staff, let alone his putative R.

  • The Existence of the State Minister in the Government System After the Amendment to the 1945 Constitution
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 25, Issue 5, Series. 1 (May. 2020) 51-78 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org The Existence of the State Minister in the Government System after the Amendment to the 1945 Constitution ParbuntianSinaga Doctor of Law, UniversitasKrisnadwipayana Jakarta Po Box 7774 Jat Cm Jakarta 13077, Indonesia Abstract: Constitutionally, the existence of ministers called cabinet or council of ministers in a presidential government system is an inseparable part of the executive power held by the President. The 1945 Constitution after the amendment, that the presence of state ministers as constitutional organs is part of the power of the President in running the government. This study aims to provide ideas about separate arrangements between state ministries placed separately in Chapter V Article 17 to Chapter III of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia concerning the authority of the state government or the power of the President, and also regarding the formation, amendment and dissolution of the ministries regulated in legislation. This study uses a normative juridical research approach. The results of the study show that the Minister of State is the President's assistant who is appointed and dismissed to be in charge of certain affairs in the government, which actually runs the government, and is responsible to the President. The governmental affairs referred to are regulated in Law No. 39 of 2008 concerning the State Ministry, consisting of: government affairs whose nomenclature is mentioned in the 1945 NRI Constitution, government affairs whose scope is mentioned in the 1945 NRI Constitution, and government affairs in the context of sharpening, coordinating, and synchronizing government programs.

  • The Presidential System with a Multiparty System Is Based on the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia
    Sovereign: International Journal of Law Vol. 3, Issue 1 (2021): 001-019 e-ISSN: 2721-8252 THE PRESIDENTIAL SYSTEM WITH A MULTIPARTY SYSTEM IS BASED ON THE 1945 CONSTITUTION OF THE REPUBLIC OF INDONESIA Nur Afti Aulia1*, La Ode Husen2, Agussalim A. Gadjong3 1Student of Master of Law Science Program, Universitas Muslim Indonesia, Makassar 2Professor of the Faculty of Law, Universitas Muslim Indonesia, Makassar 3Lecturer of the Faculty of Law, Universitas Muslim Indonesia, Makassar *Correspondence Author: Nur Afti Aulia Email Correspondence: na.aulia01@gmail.com Date of Submission: 24 February, 2021 Date of Publication: March 21, 2021 Abstract: Coalitions of political parties built within the presidential system, especially in Indonesia, are non-binding and permanent. If government policies or programs are not famous or inline, political parties tend to engage in opposition. This study aims to determine the implementation of the presidential system with a multiparty system and efforts to realize a stable and dynamic government based on the Indonesian constitutional system. This research uses a normative approach. Types and sources of legal materials consist of primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and tertiary legal materials. The analysis technique used in this research is the hermeneutic analysis method. The study results concluded that with the implementation of the presidential system with a multiparty system, it is rare for a President to be elected and from the majority party. Furthermore, with the election of a minority President and a majority in Parliament, the President will strengthen his position by forming a coalition. However, building a stable coalition is difficult in a multiparty presidential democracy.

  • The Use of Intelligence in Indonesian Counter-Terrorism Policing Amira Paripurna a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment
    The Use of Intelligence in Indonesian Counter-Terrorism Policing Amira Paripurna A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2017 Reading Committee: Jonathan Eddy, Chair Mary Fan Mark Cammack Peter Lape Program Authorized to Offer Degree: School of Law © Copyright 2017 Amira Paripurna University of Washington ABSTRACT The Use of Intelligence in Indonesian Counter-Terrorism Policing Amira Paripurna Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Jonathan A. Eddy School of Law The world over, one of the most pressing issues confronting law enforcement agencies today concerns responding to and preventing terrorism. In general, counter-terrorism (CT) efforts fall into two categories: pre-crime and post-crime. Unlike post-crime efforts that respond to terrorist acts that have already occurred, pre-crime CT is generally understood to be “proactive,” where intelligence plays a key role in preventing events and acts of terrorism. Proactive CT necessitates strong cooperation between counter-terrorism actors and among the relevant agencies to share the intelligence they collect. In fact, intelligence sharing is fundamental to counter-terrorism cooperation. In places like the U.S. and the U.K., one of the most effective and influential manifestations of proactive CT has been an approach called Intelligence-Led Policing (ILP). ILP is currently considered to be a “promising” model of policing, a model that may positively contribute to prevention and reduction of serious crime, including terrorism, organized crime, and trans-organized crime. The core framework of ILP is proactive in nature: it offers a collaborative approach to law enforcement based on information sharing and police accountability, and enhanced by intelligence operations.

  • The Politics of Transitional Justice in Post-Suharto Indonesia
    The Politics of Transitional Justice in Post-Suharto Indonesia DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jiwon Suh Graduate Program in Political Science The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: R. William Liddle, Advisor Marcus J. Kurtz Sara Watson Copyrighted by Jiwon Suh 2012 Abstract This study is an attempt to explain adoption and implementation of transitional justice mechanisms in post-Suharto Indonesia (1998–). In latecomer democracies, the internationalized context of transitional justice, working through international pressure and diffusion of ready-made norms and models, facilitates adoption of transitional justice mechanisms, such as trials and truth commissions, for certain categories of past political violence. In Indonesia, where the international advocacy campaigns for the Santa Cruz massacre in East Timor (1991) gave rise to mechanisms for dealing with human rights abuses by the military before the transition, international pressure against the East Timor referendum violence in 1999 led to adoption of two comprehensive mechanisms as preemptive measures preferable to worse alternatives: a domestic ad-hoc human rights court system against an international court for East Timor, and a truth and reconciliation commission – truth-seeking combined with amnesty – against domestic ad-hoc human rights courts. In this process, Indonesian human rights activists or “domestic norm entrepreneurs” played an indispensable role in promoting norms, models, and repertoires of action related to transitional justice, and influenced adoption of the bills and their final forms. Rather than passively relying on international allies, these norm entrepreneurs actively introduced models from a wide range of sources through direct and indirect ii linkages, and took initiative in reaching out to international allies to boost their campaigns.
