SUMMARY:Book launch: Judicial Dysfunction in Indonesia
DESCRIPTION:Book launch: Judicial Dysfunction in Indonesia\nAn analysis of corruption in Indonesia’s courts.\n\n\nIn-person event \n\n\nThe University of Sydney Law School is delighted to invite you to the launch of Judicial Dysfunction in Indonesia by Professor Simon Butt\, a revealing book that examines the deep-rooted issues in Indonesia’s judicial system. \nTracing problems back to the authoritarian regimes of Presidents Soekarno and Soeharto\, the book explains how the judiciary nearly collapsed by the late 1990s. Despite reforms aimed at improving judicial independence\, corruption and inefficiency persist\, with judges often acting without accountability. \nThis essential work offers an empirical analysis of corruption mechanisms\, including how bribes are negotiated and paid. It also addresses the impact of public pressure on judicial independence and the prevalence of unsafe convictions. \nThe book will be launched by Professor Tim Lindsey\, University of Melbourne Law School\, and Dr Laode Syarif\, Executive Director at The Partnership for Governance Reform in Indonesia\, and moderated by Lydia Santoso of the Australia Indonesia Business Council. \nThe book will be available for purchase on the evening. \nFind out more about the book and order it online here. \n\n\n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \nMonday 15 July 2024\nTime: 6-7.30pm (including a cocktail reception) \nVenue: Common Room\, Level 4\, New Law Building (F10)\, Eastern Avenue\, Camperdown campus \n>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> \n\n\nAbout the author \nSimon Butt is Professor of Indonesian Law at the University of Sydney Law School\, where he teaches Indonesian law and Private International Law.
