Abstract

In regard to political aspirations shown by many Papuans and supporters and the ideal objective of mediation as a peaceful process of conflict management, this paper raises two questions: firstly, how is the likelihood of a third-party mediation to take place in Papua? Secondly, if a mediation facilitated by international actors took place in Papua, how should it be pursued? The objective of this paper is to investigate the opportunity for a third-party mediation to take place in Papua and for the problems in the region to be settled properly. This research will be guided by a synthesis of structural and social-psychological perspectives of third party mediation which emphasises not only the importance of resolving the problems but also the significance of improving communication between conflicting parties in seeking acceptable and applicable agreements. With such a perspective this research will examine how biased and facilitative mediation is able to frame the mediation and bring the low-intensity of conflict but complex problems in Papua to a sustainable peace settlement.This paper shows optimism that the problems in Papua can be settled peacefully. It also provides ground for an internationally mediated negotiation to happen for the GoI and Papuans find peaceful settlements. Based on both theoretical ground as well as empirical observation, the protracted but low-level conflict in the region is overlapped by security and development problems. Instead of continuing the fight and allowing the problems unsettled, the parties of GoI and Papuans believed that the problems to be better settled in peace, including the possibility of third party mediated negotiation. While the Papuans, supported by other parties outside Papua, have called for the international community to facilitate negotiation or dialogue between the GoI and Papuans, the GoI is hesitant. A third party mediator that could preserve the territorial integrity of Indonesia and at the same time protect and promote the lives of Papuans is the key for a mediated negotiation take place in Papua and be successful.Key words: conflict resolution, third-party mediation, international relations, Papua

Abstract

The paper compares the broad outlines of decentralization taking place in India, dating from the last decade of the past century, with that of Indonesia in the first decades of the present one. When appropriate, material from China will be included in the essay. Of the usual subjects of political, administrative, and physical decentralization, the center of focus is on the generally acknowledged least successful in terms of reform, i.e. the civil administration. What the approach lacks in specific details concerning administrative decentralization in the respective republics, it makes up for in the emphasis on the key characteristics of each. Moreover, as public administration tends to reflect the individual countries’ prevailing norms, such an approach tends to be influenced by a new range of literature and researchers whose views challenge accepted wisdom and inspire new lines of thinking on the subject. Justification for the approach comes from expectations that cross fertilization can inspire ideas for a ‘new paradigm and conceptual framework’, ultimately leading to corrective action. The predominance of corruption/dysfunctional administrative behavior is explained by the fact that it draws upon an on-going project dealing with corruption in India and Indonesia, a joint venture of the Humanistic and Economics Faculties at Lund University. Represented by among others the author and Prof. Neelambar Hatti, the project has its origins in an earlier Lund-Parahyangan University project on Public Administration (1999-2006).   The paper opens by listing several of the more important contrasts between Indian, Indonesian, and Chinese decentralization. These include governmental structure, respective colonial heritage, and the focus of decentralization efforts. A short summary of the process of decentralization drawing upon the work of the Lund corruption project follows. The heart of the paper is the question of whether administrative decentralization furthers, hinders, or is neutral with regard to bureaucratic reform in theory and practice. Weighing up successes and failures leads to consideration of continued, if not higher, levels of corruption/dysfunctional behavior at all levels. Possible improvements are postulated, not surprisingly originating from the application of principles derived from New Public Management (NPM), with a couple of new wrinkles from India. These and other types of reform depend on general public engagement, which is conspicuous by its absence in Indonesia, especially in comparison with India’s recent mass demonstrations, hunger-strikes, and high-level public condemnation of  (mega) public corruption. Key words:Administrative decentralization, bureaucratic reform, comparative public administration, corruption, India, Indonesia

Abstract

This paper discusses the contribution of street vendors as the majority group of informal sector to the generation of local government revenue. Based on the desk study of the available literature and research reports on informal sector, this paper analyse how local government should tax informal sector to boost its revenue. In the perspective of legalist school, taxing the informal sector will only increase the informal sector activity, hence formalising the informal sector will not be a recommended policy. Other option to tax the informal sector is by the use of informal sector unions which requried an understanding of citizenship and awareness of their civil rights to establish them. This eventually also beneficial for informal sector as the creation of informal sector unions means the creation of networks and associations which enable them having power vis a vis local government. Keywords : informal sector, street vendors, local government revenue

Abstract

Decentralization refers to a commonly accepted meanings of reversing the concentration of administration at a single center and conferring powers of local government. Therefore, it is regarded as a political phenomenon capturing delegation of power to lower level of government. The main objective of decentralization is to create the most efficient and accountable form of government possible. Three forms of decentralization are recognised, deconsentration, delegation and devolution. The claims of this article, first of all, is to advocate social accounts at explainning the level of community welfare across communities. Having discussed theoretical as well as empirical accounts on the relationship between decentralization policy and community welfare, it is concluded that such relationship is inconclusive and ambigue. The case of Special Autonomy of Papua demonstrate an extreme case of paradoxical decentralization policy aimed to foster welfare for local people in particular the welfare of indigenoeous Papuans.Despite the fact of inclusive results and ambiguity, it also reveals that many studies strongly indicated that dicentralization policy predict improvement of community welfare at least through four mechanism, such as fiscal capacity, administrative capacity, institutional design of policies and the role of local political leadership. Given that all, this article finally comes to five recommendations. Firstly, tohave a closer and serious attention on social accounts that works at mediating any technical organization including decentralization policy. Secondly, to take rigorous measures on local community welfare both objective as well as subjective measures. Thirdly, to articulate the need for rigorous measure on performance of local government using both an official local government performance measurement system such as EKPPD, EDOB and EKPOD as well as an internationally accepted measures such as ISO, CAF and the like. Fourtly, to continue applying community development strategy as well as enforcing greater roles of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs). Finally, to recommend the need for more systematic research agenda and rigorous assesment on both theoretical ground type of research as well as applied policy type of research that employs both quantitative and qualitative approach as well as comparative study and case study in order to make decentralization works for improving welfare across communities.Keywords: decentralization, social accounts, community welfare, stuctural mediation, Papua.
