Law and Politics of Constitutional Courts: Indonesia and the Search for Judicial Heroes (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781138296428)

This book critically evaluates different models of judicial leadership in Indonesia to examine the impact that individual chief justices can have on the development of constitutional courts. Drawing on Greek mythology and the established idea of judicial heroes to explore the types of leadership that judges can exercise, it illustrates how Indonesia's recent experience offers a stark contrast between the different models. It will be a valuable resource for those interested in the law and politics of Indonesia, comparative constitutional law and comparative judicial politics.
