Has democracy in Indonesia brought about welfare for its citizens? If yes, how does it work? What types of channels to materialize welfare program for citizens? And how does this effort really work at the local level? This book attempts to answer those above questions, by focusing on so-called “welfare regime” at the local level in Indonesia. The research was conducted at seven areas, ranging from labour sector in Bekasi West Java, humanitarian in post-disaster areas in Aceh, rural and agriculture based area in Kulon Progo Yogyakarta, a multicultural city of Medan North Sumatera, operated by religious/communal institutions, and market, rather than democratic channels such as political pa...

How do politicians win elected office in Indonesia? To find out, research teams fanned out across the country prior to Indonesia’s 2014 legislative election to record campaign events, interview candidates and canvassers, and observe their interactions with voters. They found that at the grassroots political parties are less important than personal campaign teams and vote brokers who reach out to voters through a wide range of networks associated with religion, ethnicity, kinship, micro enterprises, sports clubs and voluntary groups of all sorts. Above all, candidates distribute patronage—cash, goods and other material benefits—to individual voters and to communities. Electoral Dynamics in Indonesia brings to light the scale and complexity of vote buying and the many uncertainties involved in this style of politics, providing an unusually intimate portrait of politics in a patronage-based system.

Persoalan utama demokrasi saat ini, khususnya di Indonesia adalah terpasungnya demokrasi oleh rentenir politik (Demokrasi Rente). Dampaknya, pertama: balas budi kepada pemodal; kedua, mati-matian memeliharan kebodohan demi harga diri; ketiga, hidup mati membela dan membesarkan partai. Pernyataan di atas termaktub dalam kertas kerja yang saya buat di bawah judul Demokrasi Otentik: Sebuah Pemikiran Menjawab Tantangan Demokrasi Rente dan Implikasinya Terhadap Pencegahan Korupsi.

Buku ini berisi pemanfaatan data raksasa (big data) dalam ilmu sosial dan politik. Big data dalam konteks ini memiliki dua ciri utama yakni skalanya yang raksasa (bukan data kecil atau small data), dan tipe datanya yang sudah terdigitalisasi. Big data telah dianggap sebagai sumberdaya baru yang sangat berharga di era revolusi 4.0 ini. Saking berharganya, di masa depan, big data diproyeksikan sebagai "the new oil", yakni sumber daya baru yang harganya setara dengan minyak bumi. Kebaruan yang ditawarkan big data bagi ilmu sosial politik terkait dua aspek utama yakni sebagai subyek kajian baru, dan sebagai metode penelitian. Sebagai subyek kajian, keberadaan big data, didapat dan dikumpulkan ol...

Pesan utama yang hendak disampaikan adalah pentingnya ilmu politik dan...
Fate and a Fulbright grant allowed my world to collide with that of this collection’s author. Jo and I met through a friend of a friend while I was teaching English in a remote city on the island of Borneo. We became fast friends, and I was honored when she asked me if I would edit her poetry. When she told me about her goal to write 100 poems in her second language in the span of only a few months, I was blown away. As the poems steadily arrived in my inbox for revision, I had an opportunity to see the fruit of so much personal reflection I have come to associate with Jo. I found her candor, hope, heartbreak, love, and longing to be tangible when we spoke in person about everything and no...
