The reform era or the post-Suharto era in Indonesia
began in 1998, to be precise when President Soeharto
resigned on May 21 1998 and was replaced by the
then vice president, BJ Habibie . This period was
founded bya more open socio-political environment.
Issues during this period included the push for
democracy and a stronger civilian government,
elements of the military trying to maintain influence,
growing Islamism in politics and society in general,
and demands for greater regional autonomy . The
reform process resulted in a higher degree of
freedom of speech , in contrast to the widespread
censorship during the New Order . As a result,
political debate has become more open in the mass
media and artistic expression has increased. Events
that have shaped Indonesia in this period include a
series of terrorist incidents (including the 2002 Bali
bombings ) and the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake
and tsunami . Using the knife of deconstruction of
critical legal theory and socio-legal methodology
with statutory, historical, conceptual and legal
political economy approaches, three questions are
raised, firstly the role of law in the market reform
agenda which underlies the idea of limiting the
role of the state in the economy; second, how is
the role of the state in the economy being debated
in the MPR and; third, what are the implications
of the market reform agenda for the results of
changes to the economic constitution.
