Nama topic/judul disertasi	: Civil Society Organisations and Human Rights in ASEAN: The case of Indonesia

 Randy Wirasta Nandyatama is a lecturer in the Department of International Relations, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Indonesia. He holds a MSc in International Relations from S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore and Bachelor of Political Science in International Relations from Universitas Gadjah Mada, Indonesia. From 2013 to 2015 he was the inaugural director of the ASEAN Studies Centre at the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Indonesia. Since 2015 he has been pursuing his PhD in the School of Social and Political Sciences, the University of Melbourne, Australia. His doctoral research focuses on understanding the engagement of Indonesian civil society organisations (CSOs) with ASEAN in advocating for human rights in the region. His thesis adopts a Bourdieu’s field theory in enriching the existing Constructivist IR analysis on the institutionalisation of human rights norms in ASEAN. Arguably, the institutionalisation of human rights in the region is significantly shaped by dominant ASEAN doxa, which comprises existing normative dispositions and Southeast Asian diplomatic mechanisms. Moreover, through the analysis of several Indonesian CSOs, this thesis shows that there are three notable patterns of Indonesian CSOs’ engagement with the process, namely supportive, critical, and adaptive to the ASEAN doxa; and these patterns contribute to a distinct normative implication regarding Indonesia’s position and the ASEAN human rights institutionalisation process. One of his recent publications is a book chapter entitled “Institutionalising Human Rights in ASEAN: The Peril of Doxic Subordination” published by Gadjah Mada University Press (2018).

Theme	: Public voluntary regulation in a developing country; The case of Industrial Environmental Rating Program (PROPER) in Indonesia.

My research highlights the role of the public voluntary regulation, such as PROPER, in shaping Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in Indonesia. The public voluntary regulation, as a form of hybrid approach, is the third wave of regulatory approach; after command and control and market-based mechanism. Regulatory scholars perceive that the public voluntary regulation fills the limitation of the prior regulatory approaches. However, a plenty literature also doubts the effectivity of the public voluntary regulation for shaping companies’ behaviour in the “weak regulatory enforcement circumstance”, such as Indonesia. “Background threat” of mandatory regulation is an enabling context for the public voluntary regulation. To unpack the role of the public voluntary regulation in Indonesian contexts, this research draws the cases from Palm Oil and Oil and Gas sectors. These industrial sectors do not only provide the different characteristics industries, but also different governance dynamic. My initial findings "signify" the essential role of governance dynamic in understanding the effectivity of the public voluntary regulation. Here, I argue that the public voluntary regulation tends to be a useful tool for shaping CSR in the industrial sector which has less certification competition rather than in the contested certification circumstance.

Topic of dissertation	: Organizational Resistance under the Circumstance of Institutional Complexity

Progress Status and Summary of PhD Project: Puguh has done the coursework (40 ECTS) in his first year and completed data collection processes in the second year. He is currently preparing three papers as parts of the dissertation. The working papers were already presented in several conferences held in European and Asian countries, such as the 2017 European Group for Public Administration (EGPA) conference in Milano (Italy), the 2018 European Group for Organization Studies (EGOS) Colloquium in Tallinn (Estonia), the 2018 Korean Association for Public Administration (KAPA) conference in Seoul (South Korea), and the 2018 Eastern Regional Organization for Public Administration (EROPA) conference in Denpasar (Indonesia). Two papers are under review by scientific journals in the field of organization studies, i.e. Journal of Organization and Management and Strategic Organization. Puguh's work explores resistance strategies adopted by organizations experiencing institutional complexity in the public sector. By examining public school responses to the institutional contradiction of senior-secondary school admission systems (i.e. representing the long-practiced demand for selectivity versus the emerging demand for inclusivity) in a city characterized by tight school competition in Indonesia, this multiple case study with qualitative approach is intended to make theoretical contributions to institutional theory of organizations. While the attentions of institutionalists in the recent works differ from those in the earlier works of new institutional theory (i.e. heterogeneity vs isomorphism), the first paper argues and provides empirical evidence that isomorphism and heterogeneity of response strategies can occur simultaneously in an organizational field when the organizations experience contradicting institutional demands with different levels of complexity. This paper shows that the role of organization attributes, which are claimed by prior works as the cause of variation of organization responses to institutional demands, can be either active or inactive depending on either the presence or absence of opportunities for organizational actors to avoid internal conflicts stimulated by the institutional contradictions. It also highlights the important role of stereotypical isomorphism, a novel type of institutional force causing isomorphism which is relevant to comprehend isomorphic responses that occur in the context of institutional complexity. By using a configurational analysis crisp-set QCA, the second paper explores the role of organizational attributes (i.e. organization status, identity, power structure, and decision-making mechanism) in specifying resistance levels of response strategies adopted by the similar organizations when experiencing a controversial emerging demand with tight prescriptions. The findings point to the importance of considering organizational characteristics as influencing combinations rather than as single and separate attributes commonly claimed by prior research. This work particularly proposes the notion of identity resistor, a composite condition of organizational identity reflecting both identity alignment and strength, and its important role in determining the resistance level of organizations. While prior research has provided the explanations of how organization image is intentionally deployed to attract prospective organization members, the third paper makes the extension by shedding a light on the other role of organization image in preventing certain people who are unwanted to be part of organization. The contributions are based on the observation of the six public senior secondary schools with different identity-image configurations. The findings show that school image can strengthen the attractiveness of schools that have a strong identity, but it can also be lowering the intention of certain groups of prospective students, who have lower academic ability and, mostly, are socially and economically vulnerable, to choose such schools. It occurs especially when organization image is influenced by organizations’ strong identity that has no an alignment with the logic of inclusivity.

Research topic	:	Elite Capture in a Corporation-Sponsored Participatory Development: Comparative case studies in extractive industries in the context of Rural Indonesia.

How village elites construct meaning and framing about the existence of oil industries concerning their political economy interests towards community development projects? How these meaning and framing constructions are then utilized to capture the development projects for the sake of their political economy interests? With the proliferation of participatory development as promoted by international NGOs and donor agencies, how the village elites of a patrimonial society in the rural of Indonesia respond to these institutional changes? All these questions on village elites’ response to institutional changes are important to investigate to what extent they can adapt to or endure against the introduction of participatory development. My provisional prospectus is driven by an argument that village elites’ influence, domination and control over the corporation-sponsored development projects for their own political and economic benefits is determined by their capacity to devise and utilize the formal and informal community development rules and practices. In the context of voluntary-based participatory development, as sponsored and funded by oil and mining industries across ownership variation (SOEs and MNCs), elite capture practices may have different degree of pressure to be held accountable by the community.

PhD research topic	Policy transfer in Indonesian administrative reform, with particular focus on investigating the role of academics in public office as agents of policy transfer
Summary of PhD research project
My research aims to explore the role of academics-turned-top public officials -a longstanding tradition in Indonesia- as the agents of Indonesian administrative transfer. With their expertise, academics are expected to promote innovation, initiate reform agendas and lead and manage a change. In my research, Academic Administrative Entrepreneurs (AAEs) are introduced as a concept to provide a unique understanding of the role of agents of transfer in developing countries, in particular to better understand the Indonesian administrative reform. The thesis analyses the role of AAEs and the dynamics underpinning their role and identifies the distinctive characteristics of the policy transfer process in Indonesia, the changing nature of Indonesian governance in a period of democratic transition as well as the Indonesian political culture in general. The analysis considers: the resources (broadly defined as knowledge, political and social capital) they bring to the policy-making process; and its contribution to their emergence and power base; the way to understand their interactions within the policy transfer framework, other structures (e.g. international organisations), and stakeholders; and the way they maximise some success factors and overcome barriers; and eventually offer an insight about how far they effectively contribute to the change process.

PhD Research Topics	:	Depoliticisation and Democratic Governance in Indonesia: The Case of the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative
Summary		My research aims to examine attempts at, and governing strategies of, depoliticisation and their effects on political alienation through the institutionalisation of transparency and accountability of natural resource governance at the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI) in Indonesia.  In a broader sense, the research also attempts to investigate the depoliticised practices of governance reform in the context of political democratisation in the Global South. The study aims to answer the important question about the popular control on the public affairs in democratic system, through a micro study on depoliticisation in governance reform in extractive industries. The extractive sector is a contentious political issue that is often fervently debated in many resource-abundant countries in the Global South. Therefore, the absence of public empowerment or the extent to which the public can access, control and influence the discourse and policy-making processes is compelling to investigate.

Fully funded by Indonesian Ministry of Finance scholarship.   Project Summary: Technology is not politically neutral. Technologies shape and are also shaped by the way society functions. This research project is concerned with understanding the political and institutional dynamics of recent innovations in the so-called platform economy, which is increasingly referred to as a disruptive technological innovation. This research aims to thoroughly discuss power dynamics within and between multiple stakeholders in the platform economy. One of the main characteristic of platform economy is the hybrid between digital and in-real-life activities. Most current studies on platform economy are dominated by Global North experiences and practices. By using case studies in Indonesia, this research offers a contribution to the narratives of Global South experiences. The case in Indonesia is important not only because it is the biggest digital market in South East Asia (SEA), but also the existence of on-demand motorbike sharing that is typical to developing economies, but mostly lacking in developed economies. Hence, the main empirical aim of this research is to analyze the discursive and institutional dynamics of the platform economy in transportation in Indonesia, and to explore differences and similarities with developments in the Global North. The main theoretical aim is to bridge Sciences and Technology Studies (STS)and International Political Economy studies (IPE) by discussing spatial dynamics between (the politics of) cyberspace and socio-technical innovation. Most research on IPE continues to have a limited conception of spatiality, with the dominant discourse being one that reifies the historically specific spatiality of the territorial nation-state. (McCarthhy, 2017). Politics is not only happened in real-life activities but also in digital behavior beyond state borders. In the era of digital revolution, this nation-state centrality perspective is expected to be insufficient to explore the fast-growing innovation in trans-national digital economies. Therefore, this research will explore inter-relationship between digital platform and political economy events in socio-technical system.   Publications    Yuana, S.L., Sengers, F., Boon, W., Raven, R.
