Visiting fellow, Dr. Christian von Lübke (Stanford University), will present the second Collaborative Colloquium of the semester, "The Mesopolitics of Democratic Governance: Institutional Change and Structural Resistance in Post-Suharto Indonesia," will be on Friday, 17 Dec from 1500-1700 in the Breisacher Tor (Rempartstr. 4), Room 201.
Dr. von Lübke writes, “In this paper I argue that Indonesia’s governance experience is closely linked to the ‘meso-politics’ of democratic consolidation: that is, the continuous interplay of institutional rules, socio-economic structures, and political agency. To discern how institutions and structures interact – and how these interactions shape the powers and incentives of political actors – I apply a multi-method research design. The combination of national case studies (KPK and Bank Century scandals), subnational governance surveys (based on original data from 2000 local firms across ten districts) and statistical analyses (using a 200-district dataset) makes it possible to shed new light on the causes of delayed democratic accountability.”
