Abstract

The rule of law has been widely perceived as an important prerequisite for economic development. However, many cases in postcolonial countries have shown that the two may not always be strongly related. Drawing from the case of Indonesia, we found that economic development can also be accompanied by a distinctly illiberal legal framework. Instead of being obstacles, legal uncertainty and lawlessness are in some ways instrumental in facilitating particular experiences of economic development, constituting the failure of legal reform. This means that illiberal legalism is not an exclusive characteristic of transitional states nor necessarily the result of a cultural feature of developing societies where multiple legal systems coexist. Rather, illiberal legalism is an outcome of a particular development of capitalism in some countries in the Global South where legal institutions work as an instrument of rule. While there is no single model of illiberal legalism, the Indonesian case represents an example where an illiberal politico-legal system coexists with a predominantly rent-seeking economy. The Indonesian case was analysed based on fieldwork conducted in Jakarta from December 2019 to January 2020 and secondary data collected until the time of writing.

在无序的框架下做生意:印度尼西亚的不自由的法制主义

摘要

法治已被广泛视为经济发展的重要前提。然而,后殖民国家的许多案例表明,两者可能并不总是密切相关。从印度尼西亚的案例中,我们发现经济发展也可能伴随着明显不自由的法律框架。法律的不确定性和无法无天在某种程度上有助于促进经济发展的特定经验,而不是障碍,而是法律改革的失败。这意味着不自由的律法主义不是过渡国家的独有特征,也不一定是多种法律制度共存的发展中社会的文化特征的结果。相当,非自由的法制主义是全球南方某些国家资本主义特殊发展的结果,在这些国家,法律机构作为统治工具发挥作用。虽然没有单一的非自由主义法制模式,但印度尼西亚的案例代表了一个例子,即非自由主义的政治法律体系与主要的寻租经济共存。印度尼西亚案例是根据 2019 年 12 月至 2020 年 1 月在雅加达进行的实地调查和截至撰写本文时收集的二手数据进行的分析。
