摘要

1998年苏哈托“新秩序”独裁政权倒台后，印尼一直致力于民主化进程。从那时起，民主已成为印度尼西亚外交政策的一个组成部分。作为世界第三大民主国家，印度尼西亚于2008年发起了巴厘岛民主论坛(BDF)，作为在该地区及其他地区促进民主的工具。然而，论坛的性质并不是像西方那样以武力促进民主。尽管印尼认为自己是民主转型的榜样，但它并不把民主等同于西方式的自由民主，而是允许每个国家选择自己的民主。本文认为，BDF代表了印尼在促进民主方面不同于西方国家的做法。促进本土民主代表着一种宽容与和谐的文化，这是亚洲国家间关系的固有特征，尽管这些关系受到尊重其他国家内政的不干涉区域准则的限制。

Promoting a home-grown democracy: Indonesia’s approach of democracy promotion in the Bali democracy Forum (BDF)

ABSTRACT After the demise of Suharto’s New Order dictatorship in 1998, Indonesia has been committed to democratization process. Since then, democracy has become an integral part of Indonesia’s foreign policy. As the world’s third-largest democracy, Indonesia initiated the Bali Democracy Forum (BDF) in 2008 as an instrument of democracy promotion in the region and beyond. However, the nature of the forum is not to promote democracy by force as exemplified by the West. Although Indonesia perceives itself as a role model for democratic transition, it does not equate democracy with the Western-style liberal-democracy but rather with allowing every country to choose a home-grown democracy. This paper argues that the BDF represents an Indonesian approach in democracy promotion that differs from that of Western countries. Promoting a home-grown democracy represents a culture of tolerance and harmony which are inherent features of Asian interstate relations, constrained as they are by regional norms of non-interference that respect the domestic affairs of other countries.
