| Wed 11 Jun 2008 | |
| Professor Tim Lindsey, Director, Asian Law Centre and Co-Director, Centre for Islamic Law & Society at the University of Melbourne, editor of the new edition of 'Indonesia: Law and Society' will speak on 'Death, Drugs and Impunity: Judges and Human Rights in the New Indonesia'. Professor Lindsey's talk will be followed by Dr Simon Butt from the Centre for Asia Pacific Law at the University of Sydney speaking on 'Courts and Corruption: enforcing judicial decisions in Indonesia'. Dr Butt is also a contributor to 'Indonesia: Law and Society'.
This new edition of 'Indonesia: Law and Society' is a complete revision of the first edition. Since the first edition, Indonesia has undergone massive political and legal change as part of its post-Soeharto reform process and its dramatic transition to democracy. This second edition contains 27 new chapters and the 4 surviving chapters have all been revised, where necessary. Indonesia: Law and Society now covers a broad range of legal fields and includes both historical and very up-to-date analyses and views on Indonesian legal issues. There is emphasis given to the social background which makes the book useful beyond only those interested in the law and legal system in Indonesia. It includes work by 31 leading scholars from a wide range of countries. There is still no comparable, English language text in existence. When: 6 - 8pm Wednesday June 11 Where: Asia Bookroom, Lawry Place, Macquarie (adjacent to the Jamison Centre) RSVP: Tuesday June 10 to 6251 5191 or books@AsiaBookroom.com |
