Via Uthkarsh Dev Uthkarsh Dev Worker Activism after Reformasi 1998: A New Phase for Indonesian Unions? This book intends to bring together discussions on the progress and current state of Indonesian labour movement after the collapse of the Suhartos New Order regime in May 1998 that brought up the Reformasi. In the context of state-labour relationship, it allows more rooms for workers to organise and join into unions. However, it has also delivered neo-liberal challenges for workers’ collective efforts to defend their economic interests in the workplace. The changes and challenges of Reformasi, however, do not prevent Indonesian labour to adapt, struggle and develop strategies to maintain its independent organisations. Although under the pressure of the market in globalisation and the constant control of the state, labour is crafting its paths - with trials and errors in some parts of the way, to defend members interests. With these persistent efforts, we are witness the formation of independent and mature labour movement in Indonesia. Edited by Jafar Suryomenggolo; Contributors: Benny Hari Juliawan; Surya Tjandra; R.
