  • Indonesia: Democracy and the Promise of Good Governanceby Ross H McLeod; Andrew MacIntyre

    Institute of Southeast Asian Studies (ISEAS) 2007; US$ 49.90

    The success or failure of democratic reform in Indonesia is a key question for Indonesia itself and for the surrounding region. Although Indonesia's transition to democracy holds out the promise of good governance, this cannot be taken for granted — as the recent military takeover in Thailand shows. This book is about the challenge of making democracy work in Asia's third-largest nation.... more...

  • Indonesian Syariahby M Barry Hooker

    Institute of Southeast Asian Studies (ISEAS) 2008; US$ 59.90

    The creation of a national school of Islamic law in Indonesia has been on the legal agenda for the past fifty years. This book is a summary of what has been achieved. The material shows us a complex range of references for syariah.

  • Shari'a and Constitutional Reform in Indonesiaby Nadirsyah Hosen

    Institute of Southeast Asian Studies (ISEAS) 2007; US$ 58.90

    This book focuses on constitutional reform in Indonesia (1999–2002) from the perspective of shari’a. Since the end of Soeharto’s New Order government in 1998, Indonesia, the largest Muslim country in the world, has amended the 1945 Constitution four times. Soeharto’s departure also opened the way for several Muslim groups and political parties to propose the introduction of shari’a into the Constitution. This book poses the crucial question implicit in the amendments to the 1945 Constitution:... more...

  • The 2011 Regulation on the Causes of Civil Action of the Supreme People's Court of the People's Republic of Chinaby Hongyan Liu; Yiliang Dong; Knut B. Pißler

    Walter de Gruyter 2011; US$ 150.00

    In 2008 the Supreme People's Court (SPC) has promulgated the "Regulations on the Cause of Civil Action". The promulgation of the Regulations has significance in various regards. It clearly signals a new approach of the SPC to systemize and compile the status quo of the Chinese civil law system. The research compiled in this book is therefore going to the roots of the notion of law in China and to the relationship between claims arising from substantive law and the procedural arrangement to enforce these claims in civil procedure law. more...

  • Justice for Forestsby Marilyne Pereira Goncalves; Melissa Panjer

    World Bank Publications 2012; US$ 14.99

    Every two seconds, across the world, an area of forest the size of a football field is clear-cut by illegal loggers. In some countries, up to 90% of all the logging taking place is illegal. Estimates suggest that this criminal activity generates approximately US $10-15 bn annually worldwide—funds that are unregulated, untaxed, and often remain in the hands of organized criminal gangs. Thus far, domestic and international efforts to curb forest crimes have focused on preventative actions, but they have had little or no significant impact. While prevention is an essential part of enforcement efforts to tackle illegal logging, it has not halted the rapid disappearance of the world’s old-growth trees. New ideas and strategies are needed... more...
