Understanding violent conflict in Indonesia : a mixed methods approach
Barron, Patrick; Jaffrey, Sana; Palmer, | Blair; Varshney, Ashutosh;
The Violent Conflict in Indonesia Study (ViCIS) is a new the World Bank project aimed at plugging gaps in the literature and adding to popular knowledge on violent conflict in Indonesia. The study aims to help the Government of Indonesia and others to formulate programs and policies to promote peaceful development and effective violence prevention. It seeks to bring a marriage of Indonesian conflict materials with the comparative theories of ethnic and communal conflict; it focuses attention on the widespread routine violence in Indonesia; it explores, within a broad comparative framework, how small clashes are transformed into large episodes of violence; and it investigates the process of de-escalation, asking whether Indonesian conflict de-escalation is likely to represent a permanent decline, or if there is evidence to the contrary. Finally, it aims to put together a comprehensive database of violence, updating and deepening the United Nations Support Facility for Indonesian Recovery (UNSFIR) dataset to include local conflict, violent crime and conflict since 2003, using around 100 newspapers as sources. Having started in mid-2008, the project will last for roughly three years.
