Within the context of a history of the Supreme Court in post-independence Indonesia, Sebastiaan Pompe analyzes the causes of the judiciary's failure over the last five decades. This study provides an essential background for those seeking to understand why legal reform has been so slow and frustrating in the post-1998 period UR - https://doi.org/10.7591/9781501718861 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781501718861 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781501718861/original ER -
