Indonesia’s Anti-Corruption Courts: Making or Breaking Governance Reform?

该项目旨在帮助决策者和社区了解印尼新的地区反腐败法庭。众所周知，印尼的公共部门腐败程度很高，这破坏了印尼后苏哈托时代的治理改革，侵蚀了对民主和权力下放的支持，并威胁到稳定。地区反腐败法庭从2011年起成立，表面上是为了帮助遏制腐败。该项目计划审查这些法院的运作方式并评估其效力。他们的表现对印度尼西亚更广泛的治理改革的成功至关重要，包括民主化和权力下放，这反过来又有助于印度尼西亚维持政治稳定和经济发展，这两者都影响到澳大利亚和该地区的经济和安全利益。

This project plans to help policy-makers and the community to understand Indonesia’s new regional anti-corruption courts. Indonesia has notoriously high levels of public-sector corruption which are undermining Indonesia’s post-Soeharto governance reforms, eroding support for democracy and decentralisation, and threatening stability. Regional anti-corruption courts were established from 2011, ostensibly to help curb corruption. This project plans to examine how these courts operate and assess their effectiveness. Their performance is critical to the success of Indonesia’s broader governance reforms, including democratisation and decentralisation, which in turn help Indonesia sustain political stability and economic development, both of which affect the economic and security interests of Australia and the region.
