Malaysia has not invited International Election Monitoring Organisations (IEMOs) for any of its general elections (GEs) since 1990 and so is numbered among those states that defy this international norm. Although the elections under the Barisan Nasional (BN) regime displayed a wide variety of manipulative practices, the BN was able, due to its position as a semi-authoritarian nature, its strategic importance and its lack of dependence on foreign aid, to successfully resist demands for the presence of IEMOs. The prospects for IEMOs has been further reduced, since the GE 2013, by the Election Commission’s “election visit programme” (EVP), adopted to compensate for the absence of IEMOs. Following Malaysia’s historic GE 2018, a widespread consensus has developed that though Malaysia should not abandon its own EVP programme, it should readopt this international norm by inviting IEMOs. This is especially needed considering the amateurish state of domestic election monitoring in Malaysia.
自1990年以来,马来西亚没有邀请国际选举监督组织(IEMO)参加任何一次大选,因此被列为违反这一国际规范的国家之一。尽管国民阵线(国阵)政权下的选举显示出各种各样的操纵行为,但由于其半独裁性质的地位、其战略重要性和对外国援助的不依赖,国阵能够成功抵制IEMO的存在要求。自2013年大选以来,选举委员会的“选举访问计划”(EVP)进一步降低了IEMO的前景,该计划旨在弥补IEMO的缺席。在马来西亚历史性的GE 2018之后,人们达成了一个广泛的共识,即尽管马来西亚不应该放弃自己的EVP计划,但它应该通过邀请IEMO来重新选择这一国际规范。考虑到马来西亚国内选举监督的业余状态,这一点尤为必要。

Focusing on the Philippines’ changing foreign policy agendas on the South China Sea dispute, this article examines the limitations of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations’ (ASEAN) intergovernmental approach in addressing security challenges in the Indo-Pacific region. It contends that former President Benigno Aquino III tried to harness this regional organisation in his balancing policy vis-à-vis China’s maritime expansion in the South China Sea. On the contrary, President Rodrigo Duterte promoted his appeasement policy on China when he became the ASEAN’s chairperson in 2017, and pushed for the elusive passage of the ASEAN–China Code of Conduct in 2019. In conclusion, the article scrutinises the implications of this shift in the Philippines’ foreign policy for the ASEAN, and raises the need for this regional organisation to rethink its intergovernmental approach to the security challenges posed by the changing geopolitics of the Indo-Pacific region.
本文着眼于菲律宾在南中国海争端上不断变化的外交政策议程,考察了东南亚国家联盟(ASEAN)政府间方法在应对印太地区安全挑战方面的局限性。它认为前总统贝尼尼奥·阿基诺三世试图利用这个区域组织来平衡-à-vis中国在南中国海的海上扩张。相反,杜特尔特总统在2017年担任东盟主席时推行对中国的绥靖政策,并在2019年推动了“中国-东盟行为准则”的通过。最后,本文详细分析了菲律宾外交政策转变对东盟的影响,并提出该区域组织需要重新思考其政府间方法,以应对印度太平洋地区地缘政治变化带来的安全挑战。

The Limits of “Populism”: How Malaysia Misses the Mark and Why That Matters “民粹主义”的局限:马来西亚如何错失良机以及为什么这很重要

Politics in Malaysia seems ripe for a populist upsurge. Parties assume fairly exclusive, ethnic boundaries, inviting insider–outsider pandering. Personalities loom large. Economic inequality is among the highest in the region. Regardless, the extent to which Malaysian politics might be understood as “populist” rather than merely polarised, illiberal, and prone to particularism is dubious. I argue that Malaysian politics is neither populist nor likely to veer that way. However, the case offers a useful test of the boundaries between populism and personalisation of politics, the extent to which appeals designed to maximise popular support suffice to code a polity as populist, and which specific illiberal features facilitate or preclude populism. This examination thus clarifies a messy concept by exploring how populism might develop or falter in a multi-party, parliamentary, and hybrid rather than democratic regime – suggesting the relative reach of institutional rather than personalistic or zeitgeist-related explanations.
马来西亚的政治似乎已经成熟,可以掀起民粹主义热潮。政党假定了相当排外的种族界限,吸引了内部和外部的迎合。个性凸显。经济不平等是该地区最高的。无论如何,马来西亚政治在多大程度上可能被理解为“民粹主义”,而不仅仅是两极分化、不自由和倾向于特殊主义,这是值得怀疑的。我认为,马来西亚政治既不是民粹主义,也不可能转向民粹主义。然而,这起案件为民粹主义和政治个性化之间的界限提供了一个有用的测试,旨在最大限度地提高民众支持的诉求在多大程度上足以将政体编码为民粹主义,以及哪些特定的非自由特征促进或排除民粹主义。因此,这项研究通过探索民粹主义在多党制、议会制和混合制而非民主政权中可能如何发展或动摇,澄清了一个混乱的概念——这表明了制度而非个人或时代精神相关解释的相对影响。

Defending Foreign Policy at Home: Indonesia and the ASEAN-Based Free Trade Agreements 在国内捍卫外交政策:印度尼西亚和基于东盟的自由贸易协定

Scholars have devoted little attention to foreign policy motive of Indonesia’s free trade agreement (FTA) policy. This article finds that, under competitive international pressure, Indonesia has instrumentalised some FTAs to serve its “Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN)-first” foreign policy, specifically to ensure the geopolitical and geoeconomic relevance of ASEAN. Three FTAs display this motive: the ASEAN Free Trade Area, later extended to the ASEAN Economic Community, the ASEAN–China FTA, and the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership. Domestically, the pro-ASEAN group has supported this motive against other influential domestic actors, especially the nationalist and the pro-liberalisation groups. However, diffused political authority has led to an inconsistent FTA policy across various trade policymaking phases. The “pro-ASEAN” FTA policy has been relatively stronger in both the negotiation and ratification, but substantially weaker in the implementation phases.
学者们很少关注印尼自由贸易协定政策的外交政策动机。本文发现,在竞争激烈的国际压力下,印度尼西亚利用一些自由贸易协定为其“东南亚国家联盟(东盟)优先”外交政策服务,特别是确保东盟的地缘政治和地缘经济相关性。三个自由贸易区显示了这一动机:后来扩展到东盟经济共同体的东盟自由贸易区、东盟-中国自由贸易区和区域全面经济伙伴关系。在国内,亲东盟团体支持这种动机,反对其他有影响力的国内行为者,特别是民族主义和支持自由化的团体。然而,分散的政治权威导致了自由贸易协定在各个贸易决策阶段的政策不一致。“亲东盟”的自由贸易协定政策在谈判和批准方面相对较强,但在实施阶段明显较弱。

Local Dynamics and Global Engagements of the Islamic Modernist Movement in Contemporary Indonesia: The Case of Muhammadiyah (2000-2020) 当代印尼伊斯兰现代主义运动的地方动力与全球参与:穆罕默德迪亚的案例(2000-2020)

This article examines the engagement of Indonesian Islamic civil society organisations in the international arena by paying particular attention to the role of the Islamic modernist movement, Muhammadiyah. Beyond its vibrant religious and social activism in the domestic context of Indonesia, Muhammadiyah has, in the past thirty years, engaged in various international affairs such as peacekeeping operations, humanitarian activities, and politics. This engagement indicates that Muhammadiyah has attempted to strengthen its international exposure and contribute to the global community. By examining Muhammadiyah’s vision and activism, both discursively and practically, this article seeks to know why it is so essential for Indonesian Islamic civil society organisations, such as Muhammadiyah, to be involved in the international arena, and what Muhammadiyah engagement means for the global picture of Islam in the Muslim world.
本文考察了印尼伊斯兰民间社会组织在国际舞台上的参与,特别关注了伊斯兰现代主义运动穆罕默迪亚的作用。除了在印尼国内活跃的宗教和社会活动外,穆罕默迪亚在过去三十年中还参与了各种国际事务,如维和行动、人道主义活动和政治。这种接触表明穆罕默迪亚试图加强其国际曝光并为国际社会做出贡献。本文从论述和实践两方面考察了Muhammadiyah的愿景和行动主义,试图了解为什么像Muhammadiyah这样的印尼伊斯兰民间社会组织参与国际舞台如此重要,以及Muhammadiyah的参与对穆斯林世界的全球伊斯兰形象意味着什么。

Minimal Factionalism in Singapore’s People’s Action Party 新加坡人民行动党派系斗争的最小化

Singapore’s People’s Action Party (PAP) is one of the longest ruling parties in the world. The PAP’s ability to avoid overt factionalism over the years is exceptional, especially compared to the region’s personalistic or cadre parties. In recent years, the defection of former PAP cadre Dr. Tan Cheng Bock and the formation of the Progress Singapore Party (PSP) and PM Lee Hsien Loong’s family rivalry, which involved PAP elites, have challenged the cohesion of the PAP. This study examines a set of incentives and constraints institutionalised at the party and national levels to foster elite cohesion. It is argued that the critical junctures in the PAP’s early years led to the adoption of a cadre party model and a centralised candidate selection process that co-opts like-minded elites into a core that promotes elite unity. Nationally, party switching and factional alignments based on ethnicity or ideology have been systematically banned. Given the lack of credible alternatives that seriously challenge the incumbent PAP, ambitious party cadres would do better toeing the party line and staying loyal.
新加坡人民行动党是世界上执政时间最长的政党之一。人民行动党多年来避免公开派系斗争的能力非同寻常,尤其是与该地区的个人或干部政党相比。近年来,人民行动党前干部谭博士的叛逃、进步新加坡党的成立以及李总理的家族竞争,都对人民行动党的凝聚力提出了挑战。这项研究考察了一系列在党和国家层面制度化的激励和约束,以促进精英凝聚力。有人认为,人民行动党早期的关键时刻导致了干部党模式的采用和集中的候选人选拔过程,将志同道合的精英纳入促进精英团结的核心。在全国范围内,基于种族或意识形态的政党转换和派系结盟已被系统禁止。鉴于缺乏对现任人民行动党构成严重挑战的可信替代方案,雄心勃勃的党干部最好遵守党的路线,保持忠诚。

Interparty and Intraparty Factionalism in Cambodian Politics 柬埔寨政治中的党际和党内派系斗争
IF 2.5 2区 社会学 Q1 AREA STUDIES Pub Date : 2020-04-01 DOI: 10.1177/1868103420906023

Cambodia’s hegemonic party system that emerged after the violent removal of First Prime Minister Norodom Ranariddh early in July 1997 has now given way to a one-party state, which still remains prone to tension and instability. The party system has become less factionalised and can be characterised as moving from high to medium factionalism. This development resulted from the growing domination of the Cambodian People’s Party (CPP) and the weakening of the opposition parties, such as National United Front for an Independent, Netural, Peaceful and Cooperative Cambodia, which splintered and become almost irrelevant in Cambodian politics. The Cambodian National Rescue Party (CNRP) emerged as the main opposition party after the 2013 election but was then banned from competing in the 2018 election. Although the CNRP remains united by its anti-CPP position, it is still fractured along political lines between two former opposition parties – the Sam Rainsy Party and the Human Rights Party. Historical institutionalism sheds some new light on the variation of political developments among political parties and within them, but does not supplant the fact that party leaders are rational to the extent that they select strategies in pursuit of their interests defined as power or security under specific institutional constraints or the lack thereof.
1997年7月初第一任首相诺罗敦·拉那烈被暴力罢免后,柬埔寨出现了霸权主义的政党制度,现在已经让位给一党制国家,这个国家仍然容易出现紧张和不稳定。党的制度已经减少了派系斗争,可以说是从高级派系斗争转向中级派系斗争。这一发展是由于柬埔寨人民党(CPP)的统治地位不断增强,反对党,如独立、网络、和平与合作柬埔寨民族联合阵线(National United Front for a Independent,Netural,Peace and Cooperative Cambodia)的削弱,这些政党分裂,在柬埔寨政治中几乎无关紧要。柬埔寨国家救援党(CNRP)在2013年大选后成为主要反对党,但随后被禁止参加2018年大选。尽管全国大会党仍然因其反人民党的立场而团结一致,但它仍然在两个前反对党——桑兰西党和人权党之间沿着政治路线分裂。历史制度主义为政党之间及其内部政治发展的变化提供了一些新的视角,但并不能取代这样一个事实,即政党领导人在特定的制度约束或缺乏权力或安全的情况下,为了追求自己的利益而选择战略是理性的。

Historical institutionalism sheds some new light on the variation of political developments among political parties and within them, but does not supplant the fact that party leaders are rational to the extent that they select strategies in pursuit of their interests defined as power or security under specific institutional constraints or the lack thereof.","PeriodicalId":15424,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Current Southeast Asian Affairs","volume":"39 1","pages":"17 - 38"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/1868103420906023","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41979550","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Though dominated by the monarchy and military, Thailand in 2020 has a highly factionalised, political party system ensconced within a defective democracy. When not under military rule, such a situation has been common. The country’s excessive level of factionalism across parties and over time is due to a long history of regionalised and decentralised parties that have invariably been dependent upon finance from faction leaders who have rarely been reined in by laws to limit factionalism. Only under Thaksin Shinawatra (2001–2006), did factionalism diminish in importance on the national level owing partly to 1997 constitutional alterations. Following a 2006 coup and the 2007 adoption of a military-endorsed constitution, a high level of intra-party factionalism returned across parties. Though the 2014 coup again ended the country’s faction-ridden democracy, the 2019 general election resurrected factionalism, which guaranteed weakness for party politics while benefiting the aristocracy and military.
尽管由君主制和军队主导,但2020年的泰国有一个高度派系化的政党体系,被一个有缺陷的民主国家所包围。在不受军事统治的情况下,这种情况很常见。随着时间的推移,该国各党派之间的派系斗争程度过高,这是由于长期以来区域化和分散的政党总是依赖派系领导人的资金,而派系领导人很少受到法律的约束来限制派系斗争。只有在他信(2001-2006)的领导下,派系斗争在国家层面的重要性才有所下降,部分原因是1997年宪法的修改。在2006年政变和2007年军方批准的宪法通过后,各党派内部的派系斗争再次高涨。尽管2014年的政变再次结束了该国派系林立的民主,但2019年的大选重新引发了派系斗争,这保证了政党政治的软弱,同时也有利于贵族和军队。

This paper is the introduction for a special issue which examines intra-party factions and factionalism in competitive party systems of Southeast Asia, looking at the cases of Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Timor-Leste, in that order and rounding up with a comparative conclusion. The study centres primarily upon one query: in competitive party systems of Southeast Asia, what accounts for the rise of factionalism in some party systems relative to others? The paper at hand frames this special issue, reviewing the literature and examining the causes, effects and forms of factionalism in general and more specifically in Southeast Asia.
