The Spice Islands Voyage
The Spice Islands Voyage is about a journey and a quest: a journey among the Spice Islands of equatorial Indonesia aboard a traditional native sailing vessel; a quest to rediscover Alfred Russel Wallace, the brilliant and intrepid naturalist who jointly proposed, with Charles Darwin, the theory of natural selection, and whose travels founded the science of zoo geography. Navigating through sparkling coral seas to remote shorelines, Tim Severin and his crew retraced the explorer's journeys, encountering green turtles and flying foxes, observing the smuggling of rare birds and rainforest destruction, but also witnessing the emergence of a new sense of environmental awareness. 'Full of insights retraces a journey through places of fabulous natural and cultural diversity should inspire new readers to discover the remarkable writings of Wallace himself', Independent

50 Years of Amity and Enmity
This book intends to offer an alternative lens for regionalism studies in Southeast Asia. Despite of its widely acknowledged status as one of the most successful regionalism, ASEAN still suffers from numerous obstacles. Yet, in the midst of ASEAN uncertain future trajectories, there is only limited consensus on how to approach ASEAN regionalism. Scholars of ASEAN regionalism tend to use ASEAN identity as the main explanation of cooperation among ASEAN member states. However, this approach suffers from limitations. Emphasis on static, traditional, and all-encompassing identity has made issue-specific cooperation and its internal dynamics neglected. The way issue-specific cooperation alters AS...
Localising Power in Post-Authoritarian Indonesia
This book is about how the design of institutional change results in unintended consequences. Many post-authoritarian societies have adopted decentralization—effectively localizing power—as part and parcel of democratization, but also in their efforts to entrench "good governance." Vedi Hadiz shifts the attention to the accompanying tensions and contradictions that define the terms under which the localization of power actually takes place. In the process, he develops a compelling analysis that ties social and institutional change to the outcomes of social conflict in local arenas of power. Using the case of Indonesia, and comparing it with Thailand and the Philippines, Hadiz seeks to understand the seeming puzzle of how local predatory systems of power remain resilient in the face of international and domestic pressures. Forcefully persuasive and characteristically passionate, Hadiz challenges readers while arguing convincingly that local power and politics still matter greatly in our globalized world.
