INDONESIA: CHALLENGES TO THE WORLD’S LARGEST MUSLIM DEMOCRACY

by Dr. Bill Liddle, Ohio State University at
UNM Continuing Education, 3:30 – 5:30 PM

A former Dutch colony, modern Indonesia is a multi-ethnic Muslim-majority developing country comprising thousands of islands spread across nearly four thousand miles in equatorial Southeast Asia.  After forty years of personal and military dictatorship under Presidents Sukarno and Suharto, Indonesia became a democracy in 1999.  Three successful national elections have since been held; a fourth is scheduled for 2014.  Serious challenges to democratic stability remain, however, including corruption, weak judicial institutions, threats from radical Muslims, separatism in the easternmost provinces of Papua, and the slow pace of economic growth.
