Confucius Acknowledgements Although I had to do the researching, thinking and writing myself it would not have been possible without the help and support of many others. I feel especially indebted to all people in Indonesia who were willing to share their view on nature conservation with me and to answer my endless questions. During the beginning of my fieldwork I received great support from the whole staff of the Indonesian Centre of Environmental Law and from Pak Imam and Bu Vivien at the Ministry for the Environment. Living and working in Jakarta would not have been possible and much less pleasant without the help of Beth, Atik, Tante Ina, Nina Eberlijn and Bas Pompe. Karen, thank you for coming to Indonesia when life got difficult. On Pulau Seribu I feel especially indebted to the people of Pramuka Island who made me feel welcome and who were open and interested in my research. If I were to highlight one of them it would be Iwan who accompanied and supported me in my work wherever he could. A special thank goes out to the rangers of the park who showed me their world. At the Jakarta office of Pulau Seribu Marine National Park next to all directors especially Andi Rusandi supported me. In Samarinda, I benefited from the help of the GTZ office, the IFFM staff and the staff of the regional environmental impact control agency. In Kutai, all staff members of the park authority made me feel welcome despite the difficulties they were experiencing. While in Indonesia I was also assisted by Aning who helped me to select and order information. Daru Indriyo inspired me with his energy and vigor. In addition, I benefited much from discussions with him. Ila, you deserve a special place. Thank you for being my friend. During the first years of the research, working together with those involved in INSELA was both stimulating and fun. I will always remember fondly the laid back David Nicholson and the warm welcomes at his various homes around the world. Karin van Lotringen and her enthusiasm accompanied me not only at the office but also on my frequent trips to the ISS. Nicole Niessen was a great source of inspiration and helped me in many ways, even after moving to Maastricht. The contacts and yearly conferences with our Indonesian partners - Mas Achmad Santosa, Wiwiek Awiati, Takdir Rahmadi, Asep Warlan Yusuf, and Sri Mamudji – proved valuable in many respects. Discussions with other PhD students and researchers working on similar subjects also helped me to shape my argument. In the beginning of my journey I benefited much from meetings with the public administration PhD club VI Acknowledgements supervised by Frank de Zwart and Paul ’t Hart. Special thanks go to Mathilde Meijers who accompanied me in my search for discourse analysis literature. Later I enjoyed exchanging ideas with the researchers of the EDEN project at the KITLV, above all Martine Barwegen and Manon Osseweijer, but also David Henley and Peter Boomgaard. Martine your coaching at some point helped me persist and push the project further to the finish. Robert Cribb and Henk Schulte Nordholt took the time to read and comment on an early draft of part of the book. Gerard Persoon inspired me with his scholarly attitude. John David Neidel made valuable comments on a draft after we met in Leiden. Special thanks go out to John McCarthy and Rili Djohani. I enjoyed discussions with you and am most grateful for all your comments on my work. Likewise, meeting Carol Warren always felt calming and comforting. Your empathy, comments and ideas inspired and helped me a lot. I also am most grateful to all scholars who were ready to share their work and ideas with me when approached via email. Among them were Maarten Hajer, Greg Acciaioli, Celia Lowe, Julian Clifton, Henning Borchers, Heinz Peter Znoij, and Arun Agrawal. After INSELA I found a new home in INDIRA together with Sandra Moniaga, Gustaf Reerink, Laurens Bakker, Tristam Moeliono, Myrna Safitri, Kurnia Warman, Saldi Isra, Djaka Suhendra, Jamie Davidson, and Daniel Fitzpatrick. I very much enoyed our co-operation and your presence and our discussions benefitted me in many ways. Jaap Timmer and Jacqueline Vel, who joined the club later, made useful comments on some of my drafts and inspired me with their humour and work. In the library of the Van Vollenhoven Institute first at the Rapenburg, later at the Hugo de Grootstraat, and finally at the Steenschuur Cora de Waaij, Albert Dekker and Sylvia Holverda were incredibly helpful and cheerful which made me enjoy my many visits there. Also the librarians at the KITLV, especially Rini Hogewoning and Josephine Schama, accompanied me during my whole journey and seemed to never get tired of my book requests. Many thanks also go to the secretariat of the Van Vollenhoven Institute where at first Nel de Jong, Carola Klamer, Helene Kulker and later Kari van Weeren, Marianne Moria, Jan van Olden and Kora Bentvelsen were always ready to help me. I also received valuable support from the Meijers Institute, especially from Riekje Boumlak, Laura Lancee, Kees Waaldijk and Karin van Heijningen. Before sending the manuscript to the publisher I could fortunately count on Anne-Marie Krens and Geoffrey Bankowski, who helped me improve layout and language. At the Van Vollenhoven Institute, the overall atmosphere very much contributed to the joy I experienced throughout the project. In the beginning Barbara Oomen was a great source of inspiration in many respects and a very pleasant colleague to work with, as were at a later stage Ken Setiawan, Maria Lopes and Li Ling. Ab Massier and Marjanne Termorshuizen showed me what it is to persist and helped me by critically reflecting on my discourse approach. Acknowledgements VII Janine Ubink was the best roommate and Benjamin van Rooij the best neigh- bour I could think of. Thank you both for listening to me, for sharing your ideas with me and for all the wonderful breaks. I owe special thanks to Jan Michiel Otto and Adriaan Bedner. Your ques- tions, comments, confidence and support helped me find my way through this project and your various talents surprised, impressed and stimulated me time and again. Finally, my old and new friends, family and ‘in laws’ always showed interest in what I was working on and how I was proceeding, and were always ready to help. I am especially grateful to Suzanne Barbier, Nathalie Fonville, Trea de Jong, Anneke Stamhuis, Ami and her family in Yogya, Alie and my parents. I don’t know that I could have done it without you. Neele, Pelle and Kalle, you helped me by reminding me every single day that there are much more important things in life than academic research and writing books. And Bob, of course, I could never have
