Those who travel in Indonesia return with memories of spicy food, of traditional buildings covered with intricate patterns and topped by soaring roofs, of graceful dances and complex dramas, of friendly, gracious people. This kit does not attempt to give a cohesive picture of Indonesia's complex and varied cultures. Rather, the purpose of the kit is to explore the political threads of Indonesian life, and to trace these threads back through their historical roots. Because of its focus,THE INDONESIA KITmay seem to some readers to have an overly negative tone. "But what about the beautiful batiks? the ttasi goreng? the rice fields? Surely you've left something out of this picture!" For a view of the cultural Indonesia, the travellers' Indonesia, the reader can peruse the travel section of the newspapers or the bookstores. Far more difficult to find, however, is information about Indonesia's recent political history, or about the everyday reality for ordinary Indone- sians. The fact that Indonesia's jails still house political prisoners; that hundreds of thousands of tapols (ex-political prisoners) are still not al- lowed to work, to vote, to travel, or to publish their writings; that "de- mocracy" in Indonesia has a highly militarized face; that independence struggles on the outer islands are right now being brutally suppressed these facts go virtually unreported due to the strictly controlled nature of the Indonesian press, and the "hands-off" stance of the international media. Despite Canada's many links with Indonesia through trade, aid, and travel most Canadians know very little about this country, the fifth most populated in the world. It is to break through this silence, and to give Canadians the informa- tion which will help them stand in solidarity with the people of Indone- sia, that this prcj2ct was conceived.

The reality of the Papuan people is high mobility, interconnected with other cultural ethnicities with cultural diversity, and their relationship with the power of global investment.

Haley School of Law A sweeping proviso that protects basic or fundamental interests of a legal system is known in various names – ordre public, public policy, public order, government’s interest or Vorbehaltklausel. This study focuses on the concept of Indonesian public order in private international law. It argues that Indonesia has extraordinary layers of pluralism with respect to its people, statehood and law. Indonesian history is filled with the pursuit of nationhood while protecting diversity. The legal system has been the unifying instrument for the nation. However the selected cases on public order show that the legal system still lacks in coherence. Indonesian courts have treated public order argument inconsistently. A prima facie observation may find Indonesian public order unintelligible, and the courts have gained notoriety for it. This study proposes a different perspective. It sees public order in light of Indonesia’s legal pluralism and the stages of legal development.

    Governing the International Commercial Contract Law: The Framework of Implementation to Establish the ASEAN Economy Community 2015 Taufiqurrahman, University of Wijaya Putra, Indonesia Budi Endarto, University of Wijaya Putra, Indonesia The Asian Conference on Business and Public Policy 2015 Official Conference Proceedings Abstract The Head of the State Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) in Summit of Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) in 2007 on Cebu, Manila agreed to accelerate the implementation of ASEAN Economy Community (AEC), which was originally 2020 to 2015. This means that within the next seven months, the people of Indonesia and ASEAN member countries more integrated into one large house named AEC. This in turn will further encourage increased volume of international trade, both by the domestic consumers to foreign businesses, among foreign consumers by domestic businesses, as well as between foreign entrepreneurs with domestic businesses. As a result, the potential for legal disputes between the parties in international trade transactions can not be avoided. Therefore, the existence of the contract law of international commercial law in order to provide maximum protection for the parties to a transaction are indispensable. The existence of this legal regime will provide great benefit to all parties to a transaction to minimize disputes. This study aims to assess the significance of the governing of International Commercial Contract Law for Indonesia in the framework of the implementation of establishing the AEC 2015 and also to find legal principles underlying governing the International Commercial Contracts Law for Indonesia in the framework of the implementation of establishing the AEC 2015 so as to provide a valuable contribution to the development of Indonesian national law.

    Living Adat Law, Indigenous Peoples and the State Law: a Complex Map of Legal Pluralism in Indonesia Mirza Satria Buana

    Living adat Law, Indigenous Peoples and the State Law: A Complex Map of Legal Pluralism in Indonesia Mirza Satria Buana Biodata: A lecturer at Lambung Mangkurat University, South Kalimantan, Indonesia and is currently pursuing a Ph.D in Law at T.C Beirne, School of Law, The University of Queensland, Australia. The author’s profile can be viewed at: http://www.law.uq.edu.au/rhd-student- profiles. Email: [email protected] Abstract This paper examines legal pluralism’s discourse in Indonesia which experiences challenges from within. The strong influence of civil law tradition may hinder the reconciliation processes between the Indonesian living law, namely adat law, and the State legal system which is characterised by the strong legal positivist (formalist). The State law fiercely embraces the spirit of unification, discretion-limiting in legal reasoning and strictly moral-rule dichotomies. The first part of this paper aims to reveal the appropriate terminologies in legal pluralism discourse in the context of Indonesian legal system. The second part of this paper will trace the historical and dialectical development of Indonesian legal pluralism, by discussing the position taken by several scholars from diverse legal paradigms. This paper will demonstrate that philosophical reform by shifting from legalism and developmentalism to legal pluralism is pivotal to widen the space for justice for the people, particularly those considered to be indigenous peoples. This paper, however, only contains theoretical discourse which was part of pre-liminary
  • Law Reform in Post-Sukarno Indonesia

    Law Reform in Post-Sukarno Indonesia

    JUNE S. KATZ AND RONALD S. KATZ* Law Reform in Post-Sukarno Indonesia Sukarno, Indonesia's president for two decades,' did not give a very high priority to law reform, as indicated by his statement to a group of lawyers in 1961 that "one cannot make a revolution with lawyers." 2 Since his fall from power, however, there have been many efforts to bring Indonesia closer to its goal of becoming a "Negara Hukum" (state based on the rule of law). 3 The purpose of this article is to describe the systematic progress that has been made in this direction. Perhaps the best way to chart this progress is to trace the career of an Indonesian leader, Professor Dr. Mochtar Kusumaatmadja, who has been very active in the law reform area. His career may be viewed in three stages, which parallel the recent stages of law reform in Indonesia.4 During the first stage-the latter part of the Sukarno regime-Professor Mochtar had to live outside of Indonesia because his view of law differed sharply from that of Sukarno. I In the second stage-the early years of the Suharto government when law reform activity centered in the law schools-Professor Mochtar was dean of the state law school *Both authors received the J.D. degree from Harvard Law School in 1972.
