In 1991 Indonesia introduced a system of administrative courts that was to contribute to establishing the rule of law in Indonesia and to provide recourse for citizens against unlawful administrative behaviour. This book:

evaluates the performance of the administrative court system

explains why the courts were established in spite of the Indonesian state's authoritarian nature, and why and to what extent the system is a Dutch legal transplant

analyses the jurisdictionary powers of the courts and how the courts have used them

explains the unbalanced nature of the record presented by analysing factors inside and outside the administrative court organisation which influence its performance (including budgetary deficits, lack of training opportunities, career manipulation and corruption)

provides a number of recommendations for change, many of which may also be of use to other developing countries.
