Indonesia (1986) examines the way in which capital emerged in the 1970s and 1980s as a major influence on the state, its officials and policies. The emergence of the capitalist class in Indonesia is examined, along with its internal divisions and conflicts, and its relations with the state. In particular, attention is given to the fusion of the ruling strata of state officials and the capitalist class – the potential basis for a new ruling class. This is set against the weakness of capital in Indonesia caused by its division into domestic and international, state and private, Chinese and indigenous.
