Summary:Commentators have tended to view the Indonesian political system as a closed circle. By contrast, this book looks to the wider civil society for sources of change. It focuses on the contribution of Indonesian non-government organizations (NGOs) both in promoting participatory models of change in social and economic development and as part of a more general movement towards democratization. The capacity of NGOs to achieve such goals depends on maximizing their autonomy from the Indonesian state. For this purpose, various strategies entailing co-operation, critical collaboration, or the minimizing of contact with the government have been devised. By contrast, students and other radicals have moved towards a more directly confrontational stance. These approaches are explored in a wide variety of contexts, such as primary health, water users' associations, co-operatives and credit unions, the urban informal sector, labour and human rights, the environment, and the mobilization of women. Legal, funding, cultural, and religious aspects are also featured, together with some international dimensions, while the capacity of NGOs for networking and coalition-building is assessed. The work concludes with an exploration of likely scenarios and options confronting Indonesian NGOs in a rapidly changing environment.…

Issued without a dust jacket. -- The divide between the West and Southeast Asia seems to be nowhere more apparent than in debates about human rights. Within these diverse geographical, political and cultural climates, human rights seem to have become relative, and the quest for absolutes seems unattainable. In this new book Philip J Eldridge seeks to question this stalemate. He argues that the Association of Southeast Asian Nations' inclusion in United Nations' human rights treaties could be the common ground that bridges the gap between East and West. Eldridge uses topical case studies and primary research from Malaysia, Indonesia, East Timor and Australia, to compare the effectiveness of United Nations' human rights directives on local democracies. This study presents insightful research into a hotly debated topic. As such it will be a thought-provoking resource for students of human rights, politics and international relations. -- Contents: Introduction; International Human Rights: Theory and Practice; Human Rights, Democracy and Development in Southeast Asia; ASEAN and International Human Rights; Malaysia: 'Illiberal Democracy' and Human Rights; Indonesia: Democratic Transition and Human Rights; East Timor, Indonesia and the United Nations; Australia, Southeast Asia and Human Rights Conclusion: Future Prospects; Glossary; Notes; Bibliography; Index.…
