Conclusion. 330 $aThis book provides a richer understanding of democratic local politics in Indonesia after the implementation of local direct elections in 2005. Co-published with the University of Airlangga Press, it confronts the question as to why incumbent political leaders succeed and fail in their bid for re-election. By focusing on urban and rural districts in East Java, one of the most populated regions in Indonesia, the work unpacks the general trends of local Indonesian politics, drawing from an empirically sound and theoretically well-grounded case study. The author demonstrates that good policy performance does not guarantee the political survival of the incumbent, and reversibly, bad policy performance does not necessarily mean losing political power. It considers the core political strategies of populism, rivalry, and tangibility and cautions that?rather than helping liberal democracy to grow?these strategies support patronage-driven democracy. Within this system, a small number of vital protectors and defenders control patronage, and, problematically, exert influential control over the country?s electoral processes. Relevant to scholars and students in Indonesian studies, and within political science and Asian studies more broadly, this book follows a gripping and nuanced narrative that explains the relationship between policy choices, informal politics, voting behavior, and political survival in Indonesia. 606 $aAsia$xPolitics and government 606 $aElections 606 $aPolitical planning 606 $aIdentity politics 606 $aPolitical sociology 606 $aAsian Politics 606 $aElectoral Politics 606 $aPublic Policy 606 $aPolitics and Gender 606 $aPolitical Sociology 615 0$aAsia$xPolitics and government. 615 0$aElections. 615 0$aPolitical planning. 615 0$aIdentity politics. 615 0$aPolitical sociology. 615 14$aAsian Politics. 615 24$aElectoral Politics. 615 24$aPublic Policy. 615 24$aPolitics and Gender. 615 24$aPolitical Sociology. 676 $a320.809598 700 $aSobari$b Wawan$01431871 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910747599603321 996 $aEmerging Local Politics in Indonesia$93574725 997 $aUNINA
