Schulte Nordholt, Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam Politieke Elites en Buitenlands Beleid: Democratisering in Indonesië 2 Samenvatting in het Nederlands Onderwerp van deze studie is de rol van politieke elites in de totstandkoming van de buitenlandse politiek van Indonesië, in het bijzonder ten tijde van het presidentschap van Megawati Soekarnoputri (2001-2004). Doel van de studie is niet alleen te achterhalen welke invloed diverse elitegroeperingen op regeringsbeslissingen van het betrokken land hebben uitgeoefend, maar ook om bij te dragen tot de vergroting van het algemene inzicht in het belang van binnenlandse factoren voor het buitenlands beleid van landen die het pad van de democratisering zijn ingeslagen. Na een grondige bespreking van relevante theoretische benaderingen die in de leer der internationale betrekkingen zijn ontwikkeld, wordt hiertoe een analysekader ontworpen. De benodigde onderzoeksgegevens worden geput uit officiële documenten, secundaire bronnen en een groot aantal mondelinge vraaggesprekken. De elitegroeperingen die worden onderscheiden zijn: 1. vertegenwoordigers uit de samenleving (academische deskundigen, nieuwsmedia, niet-gouvernementele organisaties en religieuze groepen), 2. volksvertegenwoordigers, 3. hoge militairen en 4. hoge ambtenaren. Vier gevallen van controversiële besluiten worden onderzocht: 1. de kritische reactie van Indonesië op de Amerikaanse inval in Afghanistan, 2. de spanningen tussen Indonesië en Maleisië over de behandeling van illegale Indonesische werknemers in Maleisië, 3. het omstreden bezoek van de Australische minister-president Howard aan Indonesië (februari 2002) en 4. de – in Indonesië hevig betwiste - aanwezigheid van Megawati bij de onafhankelijkheidsceremonie van Oost- Timor (mei 2002). Een belangrijke uitkomst van het onderzoek is dat de elitegroeperingen die buiten het regeringsapparaat (en het leger) staan, weliswaar invloedrijk zijn in het stadium waarin het beleid wordt geformuleerd, maar weinig gewicht in de schaal leggen wanneer het aankomt op de uitvoering van besluiten. Deze bevinding kan verrassend worden genoemd omdat zij indruist tegen de gangbare opinie van zowel theoretici als beleidsmakers over de betekenis van het parlement en maatschappelijke groeperingen ter verklaring van het buitenlands beleid van landen die nog niet lang geleden hebben gekozen voor de democratie. Een andere conclusie is dat de ideologie van het nationalisme door alle onderscheiden elitegroepen wordt omarmd, behalve door de groep van hoge ambtenaren die officieel met de voorbereiding en uitvoering van besluiten is belast. Ondanks de wisseling van het politieke regime in Indonesië na de afzetting van president Soeharto (1998) blijft deze groep ervan overtuigd dat Realpolitik de beste grondslag vormt voor een buitenlandse politiek die rekening houdt met internationale afhankelijkheden en de machtsverhoudingen in de wereld. 3 Acknowledgements Fully acknowledging each and every one of those who enabled me to complete this book would not do justice to the exercise. Instead I opted to acknowledge those who were formally involved though those whom I left out know who they are. To them I am deeply grateful. And they know that I could not have done it without them. With this in mind I would first like to thank those whom, by archaic university tradition, I am not permitted to thank by name but without their guidance, wisdom, and direction this book would not have come to fruition. I am indeed honored to have worked under their rich expertise in the field of international relations. Secondly, I would like to thank those at the institution from where I am currently serving, the Department of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Indonesia, who made it possible for me to undertake the academic assignment. The initial permission and support to be commissioned on this study assignment came from my then Director for Western European Affairs and current Director-General for Americas and Europe, Ambassador Retno L.P. Marsudi. Ambassador Sudjadnan Parnohadiningrat and later Ambassador Imron Cotan, as Secretary- General, and Ambassador Nadjib Riphat Koesoema and later Darmansjah Djumala, as Head of the Center of Education and Training, ensured that my assignment remained on course. While in The Netherlands I was under the pastoral care of Ambassador Mohammad Jusuf, and later Ambassador Junus Effendi Habibie and the then Minister and current Director-General for ASEAN Cooperation Djauhari Oratmangun. They provided me with guidance, encouragement, warm friendship, and kind hospitality. While preparing for the doctorate defense I was supported by the following individuals in ensuring that I obtain sufficient time to study while returning to active duty at the Foreign Service: Jamil Maidan Flores, Teuku Faizasyah, and Priyo Iswanto. Last but definitely not least, support for the academic assignment would not have been possible were it not been for Foreign Minister Hassan Wirajuda and Deputy Foreign Minister Triyono Wibowo. Not only did the former offer useful advice in relation to the writing of the dissertation while the latter offered support and value added suggestions, they both underlined the importance of human capital investment and made that vision into reality by creating an environment whereby it was conducive for foreign service officers to take up official academic assignments in pursuit of advanced education. Many people helped me tremendously during the field work. I thank Ismid Hadad and Ade Djunainah for the instrumental guidance on whom to interview and for providing me with an office, social network, and 4 technical support. Mahdi Ahouie, Josephine Schrama, R.A. Adriani Kusumawardhani, Sonny Keraf, Ramayanti Olii, Surano Muhasyah, Bambang Witjaksono, Yudhono Irawan, Colonel Ahmad Yani Basuki, Badarudin Bakri Badar, Bandi, Alex van der Heijden, and Jacqueline van Slingerland assisted in obtaining difficult to get materials, liaised with interview sources, and assisted with the preparation of the manuscript. My tremendous gratitude goes to the interview sources for making themselves available to be interviewed. I thank them by the order of our meetings: Hassan Wirajuda, Suryopratomo, Agus Parengkuan, Abdurrahman Wahid, Hazairin Pohan, Eko Hartono, Clara Juwono, Kusnanto Anggoro, Darmansjah Djumala, Yovial Chaniago, Dewi Fortuna Anwar, Salahuddin Wahid, Agus Widjojo, Edy Prasetyono, Bambang Kesowo, Rizal Sukma, Permadi, Mochtar Buchori, Marzuki Usman, Juwono Sudarsono, Albert Matondang, Sabam Siagian, Ali Alatas, Sabam Sirait, Azyumardi Azra, Siswo Pramono, and Jusuf Effendi Habibie. I would like to thank the following institutions in providing me with an atmosphere conducive for study: the law, main, and social sciences libraries at the University of Leiden, the Royal Netherlands Institute of Southeast Asian and Caribbean Studies Library, the Koninklijke Bibliotheek (Royal Netherlands Library); National Library of the Republic of Indonesia, Library of the Policy Assessment and Development Board at the Department of Foreign Affairs; Institut Universitaire de Hautes Études Internationales (Graduate Institute of International Relations) Library, World Trade Organization Library, United Nations Office Library in Geneva. I thank my ‘adopted’ grandma for keeping me sharp on my toes and for first suggesting Leiden, her alma mater some fifty plus years ago. I also thank my siblings for their love and support. And I especially thank the love, both moral and financial support of my mother and my father, and later of my wife and my family in enabling me to research, to write, and most importantly, to think, in peace. I dedicate this book to Mom.

  • Female Circumcision: Between Myth and Legitimate Doctrinal Islam
    Jurnal Syariah, Jil. 18, Bil. 1 (2010) 229-246 Shariah Journal, Vol. 18, No. 1 (2010) 229-246 FEMALE CIRCUMCISION: BETWEEN MYTH AND LEGITIMATE DOCTRINAL ISLAM Mesraini* ABSTRACT Circumcision on female has sociologically been practiced since long time ago. It is believed to be done for certain purposes. One of the intentions is that it is as an evidence of sacrifice of the circumcised person to get close to God. In the last decades, the demand for ignoring this practice on female by various circles often springs. Reason being is that the practice is accused of inflicting female herself. Moreover, it is regarded as a practice that destroys the rights of female reproduction and that of female sexual enjoyment and satisfaction. Commonly, female circumcision is done by cutting clitoris and throwing the minor and major labia. This practice of circumcision continues based on the myths that spread so commonly among people. This article aims to conduct a research on female circumcision in the perspective of Islamic law. According to Islamic doctrine, female circumcision is legal by Islamic law. By adopting the methodology of syar‘a man qablana (the law before us) and theory of maqasid al-syari‘ah (the purposes of Islamic law) and some other legitimate Quranic verses, circumcision becomes an important practice. Again, the famous female circumcision practice is evidently not parallel with the way recommended by Islam.

Partai politik berbasis keagamaan kristen ini muncul sejak Pemilu pertama di Indonesia pada 1955 hingga pada masa reformasi pada pemilu 2004.

Kedua, menjaga pluralisme. Ketiga, menolak ide negara Islam dan syariat Islam. Kata Kunci: Partai Politik Umat Kristiani, Komunikasi Politik, Partai Damai Sejahtera.

October 2013 Abstract How democratisation affects a state's foreign policy is a relatively neglected problem in International Relations. In Indonesia's case, there is a limited, but growing, body of literature examining the country's foreign policy in the post- authoritarian context. Yet this scholarship has tended to focus on the role of Indonesia's legislature and civil society organisations as newly-empowered foreign policy actors. Scholars of Southeast Asian politics, meanwhile, have concentrated on the effects of Indonesia's democratisation on regional integration and, in particular, on ASEAN cohesion and its traditional sovereignty-based norms. For the most part, the literature has completely ignored the effects of democratisation on Indonesia's foreign ministry – the principal institutional actor responsible for foreign policy formulation and conduct of Indonesia's diplomacy. Moreover, the effect of Indonesia's democratic transition on key bilateral relationships has received sparse treatment in the literature.

    Constituttional Design 2000 December 9–11, 1999 INDONESIA’S DEMOCRATIC TRANSITION: PLAYING BY THE RULES R. William Liddle The Ohio State University I. Introduction In a process that began in July 1997, Indonesians have created but not yet consolidated a democracy. The turning point or defining moment of the transition was the June 7, 1999 election for Parliament (Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat, People’s Representative Council), the first democratic general election in Indonesia in nearly half a century. Subsequently, on October 21 and 22, 1999, a new president and vice- president, Abdurrahman Wahid and Megawati Sukarnoputri, were elected by the 695- member People’s Consultative Assembly (Majelis Permusyawaratan Rakyat), a body comprising 462 elected and 38 appointed members of Parliament from the armed forces plus 130 indirectly elected regional delegates and 65 appointed representatives of a variety of social groups. The presence of appointed Parliament and Assembly members, particularly the 38 armed forces’ delegates, means according to most scholarly definitions that Indonesia is not yet a full democracy.1 However, the genuinely democratic quality of the parliamentary election, in which 79% of registered voters chose among 48 political parties after a well-publicized campaign largely free of authoritarian constraints, together with almost complete acceptance of the rules of the presidential/vice-presidential selection process, indicate that the threshhold from democracy to authoritarianism has been crossed. The transition was marked by three successive moments of decision, crises or challenges that were faced by elite actors, including civilian and military government officials plus party and societal leaders, that will be discussed in Part III of this paper.

INDONESIAN POLITICS 1964-5 Peter Christian Hauswedell The passing of the Orde Lama in Indonesia and the death of Presi­ dent Sukarno seem too recent, and political emotions are still too high to arrive at a definitive characterization of the nature of the political system and its leader. The apparent contradictions between the ideological dynamism and the social conservatism1 of Guided Democ­ racy, the lack of conclusive evidence about Sukarno’s final political intentions, and the chaotic, even apocalyptic period before the sudden demise of the system a ll contribute to the d iffic u lt y of c la s s ific a ­ tion. Finally, the dramatic events around the October 1, 1965 coup attempt have distracted our attention unduly. In Indonesia itself, the political atmosphere does not yet allow an objective assessment of the period. Since nearly all members of the present elite were in one way or another deeply involved in the events of that time, there are few publications about the period, and they have been rather polemical and unsystematic.2 Any study which contributes to our knowledge of Sukarno and Indo­ nesian p o lit ic s before the coup is therefore more than welcome, and John D. Legge’s recent political biography of the former President3 is the first ambitious attempt to portray this certainly complex, and often contradictory political leader.1* Although solid in factual 1.

    1 BAB I PENDAHULUAN A. Latar Belakang Masalah Indonesia sebagai Negara kepulauan terbesar di dunia karena jumlah kepulauanya sekitar tiga belas ribu kepulauan dan jumlah penduduk hampir mencapai dua ratus juta jiwa. Bahkan Indonesia dikenal juga sebagai masyarakat yang terligius dan beradab karena masyarakatnya bertuhan. Dalam kaitan ini, Joahim Wach menegaskan bahwa tidak ada agama tanpa Tuhan karena agama adalah perbuatan manusia yang paling mulia dalam kaitannya dengan Tuhan Yang Maha Pencipta. Kepadanya manusia memberikan kepercayaan dan keterkaitan yang sesungguhnya.1 Hal ini, sesuai dengan keyakinan agama yang dianut oleh masyarakat Indonesia, bahkan diperkuat dengan falsafah bangsa Indonesia yang termuat dalam Pancasila yang pertama adalah Ketuhanan Yang Maha Esa. Agama yang ada di Indonesia adalah bertuhan karena tidak bertuhan berarti bertentangan dengan Pancasila, bahkan tidak diakui sebagai agama. Maka keberadaan Tuhan adalah masalah pokok dalam setiap agama karena agama tanpa kepercayaan kepada Tuhan tidak disebut agama.2 Oleh karena itu, Edward B. Tylor mendefinisikan agama sebagai “belief in spiritual being” karena agama termasuk suatu 1 Joachim Wach, The Comparative Study of Religion, {New York and London: Columbia University Press, 1958}, hlm.

PDI Perjuangan merupakan kelanjutan dari Partai Demokrasi Indonesia yang berdiri pada tanggal 10 Januari 1973. Partai Demokrasi Indonesia itu lahir dari hasil fusi 5 (lima) partai politik. Kelima partai politik tersebut yaitu; Partai Nasional Indonesia (PNI), Partai Kristen Indonesia (Parkindo), Partai Katolik Republik Indonesia, Ikatan Pendukung Kemerdekaan Indonesia (IPKI), dan Murba (gabungan Partai Rakyat Jelata dan Partai Indonesia Buruh Merdeka). Pada saat Orde Baru ada gagasan agar supaya fusi (penggabungan) partai dilakukan, tepatnya 7 Januari tahun 1970.

Ik besloot poolshoogte te gaan nemen. Op 17 mei 1999 landde ik, midden in de campagne, met een jumbo van Garuda Indonesian Airways op de luchthaven Sukarno-Hatta bij Jakarta. Bij het betreden van de aankomsthal hoorde ik ‘Oom Wim!’ roepen. Sukmawati Sukarnoputri (Sukma) (51), dochter van president Sukarno, was me komen afhalen. Ik voelde me bevoorrecht. Sinds mijn laatste bezoek aan haar vader in 1966, voelde ik me bovendien voor het eerst weer echt welkom in Indonesië. Was de situatie sinds het verraad van Suharto in 1965 dan toch eindelijk veranderd? Voor de buitenwacht leek het erop of door het gehaaste vertrek van de militaire dictator de kaarten waarachtig waren geschud. In werkelijkheid had Suharto op het nippertje een laatste stunt uit zijn trucendoos getoverd. Hij had zijn trouwste paladijn de eed op het presidentschap laten afleggen. Waar het in de praktijk op neerkwam was dat hij via B.J. Habibie zijn eigen veiligheid en die van zijn corrupte kinderen had geregeld. Ook de vele van het volk gestolen miljarden zouden met Habibie in het Merdekapaleis niet kunnen worden opgeëist en teruggegeven. In feite was er na 1998 nog niets veranderd. Met de verkiezingen zouden er nieuwe leiders komen en zou er na 32 jaar dictatuur schoon schip worden gemaakt.
