Democratising Indonesia: The Challenges of Civil Society In The Era of Reformasi
This study, which covers the period from suharto's fall up until the latest democratic elections in 2004, analyses the role of civil society in Indonesia's transition towards democracy. Here, the author argues that social movements are civil society's primary catalysts for change. In support of her argument, Mikaela Nyman discusses the shortcomings and succeses of the pro-democracy movement and examines the actions and limitations of its various parts. Case studies are provided of three groups of actors-the student movement, the women's movement and the labour movement. The author warns that a strong civil society is needed to consolidate the gains achieved by social movements in the political, social and economic spheres. Taking this as her standpoint, she looks at prospects for the future health of Indonesian civil society.
