Community radio in Indonesia : a re-invention of democratic communication

Hollander, Ed (avtor), Hidayat, Dedy Nur (avtor), Haenens, Leen (avtor)

This paper discusses the ways in which efforts aimed at democratising the media system and empowering communities in Indonesia in three discursive periods (the 1998 "Revolution Movement", the "Reform Era" follow-up, and the 2002 Broadcasting Act up till the present time) have ebbed and flowed. The main result of the changing winds so far has been the liberalisation of the market, in line with global media trends. The Government has tried to frustrate the prospects of community media. Hence, the current development of community radio in the country remains stagnant, the main challenge being to create a more visible position in the media landscape, which in turn may bring about a more supportive stance in the government's policies. Our tour d'horizon of the state of affairs of community radio, its complementary status to the mainstream national media scene, and the assessment of current needs are based upon empirical evidence gathered in the Manado and Jogyakarta areas. Departing from the different dynamics of these two cases, weaknesses and critical success factors will be assessed, taking into account the different backgrounds of the regions, radio practitioners as well as their audiences in terms of religion, ethnicity, and life styles.

Izvleček

Članek obravnava prizadevanja za demokratizacijo medijskega sistema in opolnomočenja skupnosti v Indoneziji v treh obdobjih po padcu Suharta: revolucionarno gibanje po 1998, nato obdobje reform in po letu 2002 obdobje zakona o radioteleviziji (2002). Poglavitna sprememba doslej je bila skladno z globalnimi medijskimi trendi tržna liberalizacija. Vlada je poskušala onemogočiti razvoj skupnostnih medijev. Ključni izziv za skupnostni radio je doseči večjo vidnost v medijski krajini, kar bi lahko imelo za posledico večjo naklonjenost vladne politike. Članek temelji na empiričnem proučevanju radijskih postaj v provincah Manado in Jogyakarta. Proučuje njihove slabosti in dejavnike uspeha z vidika verskih in etničnih razlik med obema pokrajinama ter glede na razlike v življenjskih stilih.
