Liberalism in Indonesia: Between Authoritarian Statism and Islamism
It is hardly surprising that liberalism has been neglected in studies of Indonesian political thought, with most scholars focusing on nationalism, communism, conservatism, populism, and Islamism. The term ‘liberal’ has long been a byword for the kind of naked individualism and dog-eat-dog capitalism against which mainstream Indonesian nationalism has contrasted itself. This article argues that liberalism has, nevertheless, been present as a count…
Two Decades of Ideological Contestation in Indonesia: From Democratic Cosmopolitanism to Religious Nationalism
This article surveys ideological developments in Indonesia over the past two decades, tracing a shift in the ideological centre of gravity from the embrace of democratic norms in the immediate post Suharto period towards a conservative and inward-looking religious nationalism. Several reasons are identified for this shift, including the failure of reformers to adequately deal with the legacy of Suharto’s Pancasila indoctrination project and the s…

Illiberal Democracy in Indonesia charts the origins and development of organicist ideologies in Indonesia from the early 20th century to the present. In doing so, it provides a background to the theories and ideology that informed organicist thought, traces key themes in Indonesian history, examines the Soeharto regime and his ‘New Order’ in detail, and looks at contemporary Indonesia to question the possibility of past ideologies making a resurg…
Indonesianising Indonesia: Conservative indigenism in an age of globalisation
Positing that the key to understanding most ‘Asian values’ rhetoric lies at the level of domestic politics, this paper examines the manufacture and political uses of ‘indigenist’ discourses in Indonesia. It contrasts populist and conservative forms of indigenism and explores how President Soeharto deployed the latter against his leftist, Muslim and liberal critics. The paper suggests that the rise of an educated and globally connected middle clas…
