Civil-Military Relations in Indonesia
This book examines military operations other than war (MOOTW) of the Indonesian military in the post-Suharto period and argues that the twin development of democratic consolidation, marked by ‘stable’ civil–military relations from 2004 to 2014 under Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono’s presidency, and internationalization of the military have not yet entirely de-politicized the armed forces. This book shows how peacekeeping, humanitarian assistance and disaster relief, and counter-terror missions have been reinvented by the Indonesian military (Tentara Nasional Indonesia, TNI) to adhere to its politico-institutional interests rather than to divert military attention from politics. In contrast ...

Menimbang Demokrasi Dua Dekade Reformasi
Tak terasa sudah dua puluh tahun era reformasi bergulir yang ditandai mundurnya Presiden Soeharto pada 21 Mei 1998. Banyak yang sudah dicapai, tetapi sulit dibantah, tidak sedikit kegagalan dalam mewujudkan Indonesia yang lebih mandiri, bermartabat, adil, dan sejahtera. Korupsi yang marak, menguatnya politik identitas dan politisasi SARA, lemahnya penegakan hukum dan HAM, merosotnya komitmen ber-Pancasila, dan absennya visi kebangsaan para elite politik, saling berkelindan di tengah kebanggaan semu sebagai negara demokrasi terbesar ketiga di dunia sesudah India dan Amerika Serikat. Alih-alih menikmati demokrasi substansial yang terkonsolidasi, bangsa kita justru masih terperangkap praktik demokrasi elektoral dan elitis yang bersifat prosedural. Buku ini menimbang pencapaian reformasi di Indonesia pasca-Orde Baru. Ada empat kelompok tema yang ditimbang oleh para penulis yang seluruhnya merupakan peneliti pada Pusat Penelitian Politik LIPI, yakni: (1) pencapaian reformasi menuju sistem demokrasi; (2) reformasi sistem perwakilan, pemilu, dan kepartaian; (3) reformasi sektor keamanan; dan (4) reformasi hubungan pusat-daerah, desentralisasi dan politik lokal.
Membangun Kemandirian Industri Pertahanan Indonesia
Industri pertahanan dan ekonomi suatu bangsa saling bertaut erat. Dengan pertumbuhan ekonomi yang relatif konsisten, Indonesia memiliki peluang emas dan momentum untuk tumbuh sebagai pemain besar industri pertahanan dunia. Akan tetapi masih banyak hal harus dikerjakan. Yang paling menentukan, di samping hal-hal terkait pengembangan industri pertahanan itu sendiri—penguasaan teknologi, modal kerja, model bisnis, manajemen korporasi, akses global supply chain, dan lain-lain— adalah affirmative action atau keberpihakan pemerintah terhadap pertumbuhan industri militer. Bagaimana sesungguhnya perkembangan industri pertahanan Indonesia hingga saat ini? Apa yang seharusnya dilakukan pemerintah? Silmy Karim menggambarkan dengan rinci kondisi industri militer Indonesia terkini sekaligus langkah-langkah strategis yang mungkin dilakukan untuk membuat terobosan.
Constitutional Democracy in Indonesia
Indonesia's political and governmental structures underwent sweeping reforms in the late 1990s. After decades of authoritarian rule, a key aspect of the transition to constitutional democracy during this period was the amendment of the 1945 Indonesian Constitution - an important legal text governing the world's third largest democracy. The amended Constitution introduced profound changes to the legal and political system, including an emphasis on judicial independence, a bill of rights, and the establishment of a Constitutional Court. This volume, with chapters written by leading experts, explores the ongoing debates over the meaning, implementation, and practice of constitutional democracy ...
Affect, Narratives and Politics of Southeast Asian Migration

Furthermore, through rich ethnographic accounts, the book unpacks themes of belonging and displacement...

Intelijen dan Keamanan Nasional di Indonesia Pasca-Orde Baru
Buku Intelijen dan Keamanan Nasional di Indonesia Pasca-Orde Baru bertujuan untuk menjelaskan kiprah intelijen negara di Indonesia selepas pengunduran diri Presiden Suharto pada tahun 1998. Kendati memiliki peran penting selaku “lini pertama dalam sistem keamanan nasional,” kajian tentang intelijen bisa dibilang masih sedikit jika dibandingkan studi tentang institusi militer atau kepolisian. Buku ini berupaya memperkaya khazanah studi intelijen, demokrasi, dan keamanan nasional di Indonesia, dengan membahas empat aspek strategis, yakni: perkembangan persepsi ancaman keamanan; pengunaan dan penguasaan teknologi informasi guna mendukung aktivitas intelijen; proses rekrutmen serta pendidika...
Demokrasi Tanpa Demos
Ide awal buku ini lahir pada penghujung tahun 2020 saat kami menggagas perlunya mengundang ilmuwan sosial politik dari seluruh dunia untuk menulis refleksi bersama atas situasi demokrasi di Indonesia dalam rangka ulang tahun ke-50 LP3ES yang jatuh pada 19 Agustus 2021.
