About the Book
Edited by San Jaffrey and Eve Warburton, this volume examines Jokowi’s political evolution and the impact he has had on Indonesia. It casts Jokowi’s decade in office as one of authoritarian revival, which saw the return of statist developmentalism in the economic sphere and the resurrection of New Order–era tactics of co-optation and repression in the political sphere. The volume brings together experts from a wide range of fields, including foreign policy, security, economics, politics, law and human rights. In different ways, all contributors view Jokowi as a disruptive president, whose ambitious developmental agenda came at a high cost for Indonesia’s democracy.
