This book assesses democratic resilience and challenges in
(relatively) newly emerging democracies in the Asia-Pacific, which
are simultaneously important case studies as newly emerging middle
powers. Across all dimensions and measurements, South Korea and
Indonesia are consistently the most salient case studies to
consider. The two case studies are compared across three sections.
First, the relationship between economic development and democratic
resilience in Indonesia and South Korea. Second, nature of
political culture and societal constructs in the two case studies.
The final section looks at the potential peculiarities of the two
case studies, which are seen as uniquely challenged: Indonesia by
religious persecution and South Korea by political populism.
Certainly, democratization is a long and difficult process. This
book provides insight into how the two countries have embarked on
similar democratization projects. It also delineates the successes
and failures from which valuable lessons on democratization can be
drawn.
