Agrarian conflict and land politics examined in Indonesia
Original: Rightlessness after reform? Agrarian conflict and the politics of land in Indonesia
An analysis piece asks whether Indonesians affected by agrarian conflict remain effectively without rights decades after the Reformasi era began, examining how land politics continue to dispossess rural communities. The discussion highlights ongoing disputes between villagers, plantation interests and the state over land tenure, and questions whether post-1998 reforms delivered meaningful legal protection for smallholders and indigenous communities facing eviction and dispossession.
Why now: Land disputes and agrarian justice remain persistent sources of political tension in Indonesia, prompting renewed debate about the failures of reform.
