Indonesia: Democracy and the Promise of Good GovernanceRoss H. McLeod, Andrew J. MacIntyre Institute of Southeast Asian Studies, 2007 - 207 pages The success or failure of democratic reform in Indonesia is a key question for Indonesia itself and for the surrounding region. Although Indonesia's transition to democracy holds out the promise of good governance, this cannot be taken for granted - as the recent military takeover in Thailand shows. This book is about the challenge of making democracy work in Asia's third-largest nation. |
