My book was just sent to press! It'll be available in print end of July. Focusing mostly on the topic of bureaucracy in Southeast Asia during the 20th c, the book develops an argument about how state-building can present headwinds for nation-building.

So, I've heard jokes about the Senate looking like a retirement home... but um, it's kinda true. The age distribution of Senators is almost identical to The Villages, the largest retirement community in the U.S.

A very nice summary and analysis of the stakes of the upcoming regional elections in Indonesia next week. Key point: owing to synchronization schedule, about half of districts have had central govt appointed caretakers for last 2 yrs. Will election outcomes look different there?
Indonesia's regional elections will be its largest to date. Constitutional court rulings in August supported a diverse electoral landscape however cartel-like party coalitions and deal-making have operated to constrain the parameters of contestation. Some comment:
