- My new blog post for The Oxford Martin Programme on Changing Global Orders, on the revival of new international order proposal. I look at how Indonesia supported the original proposal in the 1970s and how the country re-articulates it today. changingglobalorders.web.ox.ac.uk/article/maki...
- This blog post is based on a wider research I conducted with my colleague Farahdiba Bachtiar (UIN Alauddin Makassar) on Indonesia's position towards the New International Economic Order - looking at Indonesia's role since the inception of NIEO in the 1960s and 1970s and its re-articulation today.
- To summarise the argument: Indonesia's position towards NIEO (as primarily articulated by then Foreign Minister, Adam Malik) is twofold: (1) to support Indonesia's ambitious development projects and (2) to 'bridge' the global south and the global north in international political economy.
