Testing Political Islam's Economic Advantage
Testing Political Islam’s Economic Advantage: The Case of Indonesia Thomas B. Pepinsky R. William Liddle Saiful Mujani Department of Government Department of Political Science Lembaga Survei Indonesia Cornell University Ohio State University Jl. Lembang Terusan No. D57 322 White Hall 2038 Derby Hall Menteng, Jakarta Pusat 10310 Ithaca, NY 14853 154 N. Oval Mall Indonesia Columbus, OH 43210 [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Across the Muslim world, Islamic political parties and social organizations have capitalized upon economic grievances to gain political support. But existing research has been unable to disentangle the role of Islamic party ideology from programmatic economic appeals and social services in explaining these parties’ popular support. We argue that contrary to widely accepted beliefs, Islamic party platforms play no direct role in explaining aggregate political support for Islamic parties. Rather, Islamic platforms provide voters with information that serves as a cue to attract citizens who are uncertain about parties’ economic policies. Using experiments embedded in an original nationwide survey in Indonesia, we find that Islamic parties are systematically more popular than otherwise identical non-Islamic parties only under cases of economic policy uncertainty. When respondents know economic policy platforms, Islamic parties never have an advantage over non-Islamic parties. Our findings demonstrate that political Islam’s economic advantage is real, but critically circumscribed by parties’ economic platforms and voters’ knowledge of them.

Introduction This paper investigates the effects of religious and economic appeals on popular support for Muslim political parties. -
Situating English Language Teaching in Indonesia Within a Critical, Global
Situating English Language Teaching in Indonesia within a Critical, Global Dialogue of Theories: A Case Study of Teaching Argumentative Writing and Cross-Cultural Understanding Courses RIBUT WAHYUDI A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington 2018 ABSTRACT This dissertation aims to critically examine lecturers’ discursive statements in interviews and English Language Teaching (ELT) classroom practices in Indonesia, primarily in the teaching of Argumentative Writing (AW) and Cross Cultural Understanding (CCU) courses at two universities (Multi-Religious and Islamic University) in Java. This study uses poststructural and interdisciplinary lenses: Foucauldian Discourse Analysis (FDA); Connell’s (2007) ideas of Southern Theory, Kumaravadivelu’s (2006b) Post Method Pedagogy, and Al-Faruqi’s (1989) and Al-Attas’ (1993) Islamisation of knowledge, as well as the critiques of these theories and other postcolonial voices. The critical examination of ELT practices through poststructural and interdisciplinary lenses in an Indonesian context is urgent, as teaching practices at present are subjected by competing regimes of ‘truth’ including Western, neoliberal, Southern, and Islamic discourses. The data were collected from curriculum policy documents, semi structured interviews, stimulated recalls and classroom observations from seven lecturers. The data were then transcribed and analysed primarily using FDA and also discussed -

When child anthropometrics are also available, such expenditure data can provide insights into household food purchasing patterns that are associated with subsequent child growth measures. We used data from 6993 children, born around 2001, from Ethiopia, India, Peru, and Vietnam, from the Young Lives younger cohort. We compared associations between two weeks of household food expenditures (in PPP—Purchasing Power Parity adjusted dollars) on food groups and child height-for-age-Z score (HAZ) at subsequent time points to assess longitudinal associations. -

Water Management in the Upper Sub-Basin of the Inderagiri River Basin in Indonesia: Issues and Implications Related to Integrated Water Resources Management
Intersectoral Management of River Basins Water Management in the Upper Sub-Basin of the Inderagiri River Basin in Indonesia: Issues and Implications Related to Integrated Water Resources Management Helmi Lecturer, Centre for Irrigation, Land and Water Resources Development Studies Andalas University, Padang, Indonesia Abstract Integrated water resources management (lWRM) is an important development agenda for addressing institutional problems and capacity building for the 41se, control, preservation and sustainability of water systems. Pursuing this requires understanding of related issues and their implications for dev~/opment of effective water management institutions. Indonesia is in the process of reforming its water resources management policy, which will give emphasis to putting IWRM principles into action. One of the elements of the new policy is related to the improvement of river-basin management. Although experience on river-basin management has been developed in one basin (Brantas river basin in East Java), this was not the case for other regions of the country until lately. This paper discusses the dynamics of water use and management in the upper sub-basin of the Inderagiri river basin, in West Sumatra, Indonesia. Issues and implications related to IWRM are identified. The topics covered are: the policy and institutional context of river-basin management, with an overview of the water management policy reforms and related aspects of policy relevant to improvement of river-basin management in West Sumatra Province; a more specific discussion on the setting and hydrology of the upper sub-basin; a special case illustrating water use competition and water allocation in a river (Ombilin River) within the upper sub-basin. -

Combine short term profits and long-term sustainability to restore agroforests Assisted Natural Regeneration with tree planting accelerates forest restoration 29.1 Background Land rehabilitation and improving the economies of communities living in and around degraded forests and other land-sector domains, such as agriculture, received a prominent position in the national Low Emission Development Strategies (LEDS). Landscape rehabilitation is to be achieved by restoring ecosystem functions and sustainable forest management (including social forestry) in degraded areas through the active participation of the private sector, civil society organizations, local communities and vulnerable groups, especially adat communities and women, both in the planning and implementation stages1. Estimates show that the forestry sector and land-use change in Indonesia contribute 53%–85% of Indonesia’s total annual carbon emissions. Under the Indonesian climate plan, the Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) states that the Indonesian government aims to reduce emissions by 29% (i.e. 835 MTon CO2e by 2030 compared to the Business as Usual (BaU) scenario. The term ‘degraded’ has been used in multiple contexts in Indonesian law and policy. -

©Copyright 2012 Mia Siscawati Social Movements and Scientific Forestry: Examining the Community Forestry Movement in Indonesia Mia Siscawati A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2012 Reading Committee: Celia Lowe, Chair Peter Lape Nancy L. Peluso Laurie Sears Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Anthropology University of Washington Abstract Social Movements and Scientific Forestry: Examining the Community Forestry Movement in Indonesia Mia Siscawati Chair of Supervisory Committee: Associate Professor Celia Lowe Department of Anthropology This dissertation examines the cultural aspects of collaboration between social movements and forestry science in the community forestry movement in Indonesia. This movement has served as a response to the application of industrial scientific forestry. This approach has been one of the main tools of state control over land and forest resources in post- colonial Indonesia, particularly since the beginning of the New Order era inaugurated by the military coup of General Suharto in 1966. Indonesian non-governmental organizations (NGOs) responded to this problem with intensive campaigns against state forest policies and the destructive logging practices and began to promote community forestry focused on issues of land tenure and resource rights as an alternative to industrial scientific forestry. One of the groups involved in the community forestry movement in Indonesia has been the progressive academic forestry scholars. Participation of these scholars marked a critical point since, in general, academics have been associated with the ruling regime, and many of them were involved in the development of the forestry paradigms that lead to deforestation and its resultant social problems. -
