    Remembering Suffering and Survival: Sites of Memory on Buru
    Setiawan, K ; McGregor, K ; Melvin, J ; Pohlman, A (Palgrave Macmillan, 2018)
    Survivors and their families have remembered the events of 1965 and the related suffering of persons targeted in the violence in complex ways. In the absence of state recognition of the suffering of victims of 1965, survivors and families have had to pass on their memories in personal ways making their own meanings of these sites of terror within families and communities of former political prisoners. This chapter considers this process in terms of memories of imprisonment on the remote eastern Indonesian island of Buru.

    The Human Rights Courts: Embedding Impunity
    Setiawan, K ; Crouch, M (Cambridge University Press, 2019-09-30)
    This chapter critically examines the development of the Indonesian Human Rights Courts that were established following the fall of authoritarianism. Intended to address past and present cases of gross human rights abuses, the Courts have attracted strong criticism for failing to hold perpetrators accountable. This is widely regarded as a consequence of the influence of powerful political actors resistant towards human rights reform. This chapter seeks to deepen the understanding of the gap between the goals of the Human Rights Courts and their actual performance, through a socio-political analysis of law and legal institutions. Using Daniel S. Lev’s concept of legal culture, this chapter will argue that while the Human Rights Courts represent a shift in procedure, legal values have not changes legal values consistent with human rights principles embedded in law. This means that while human rights have been made part of the legal and judicial system, the Human Rights Courts have been unable to shape understandings of rights in a way that is conducive to human rights reform, instead embedding impunity for the security forces.
