Conference: Indonesia ten years after (1998-2008)
22-23 May 2008; Oost Indisch Huis, University of Amsterdam
Kloveniersburgwal 48, Amstersdam.
In May it is ten years ago that the Suharto regime came to an end. What has
been achieved with respect to political and economic reforms? What are the
major constraints? How do religious and ethnic identity politics relate to
notions of citizenship? Which new developments can be identified in popular
arts?
