Rhetoric and practice: foreign policy of Indonesia towards the West
Abstract
The aim of the article is to analyze the relationship between Indonesia and Western countries. The argument of this paper is that democratic changes made Indonesia a valuable partner for the West. Due to these changes, although critical to some of the solutions imposed by the West, Indonesia now respects the same values and conducts a similar policy, e.g., in the field of promotion of democracy. Therefore, I conclude that the Indonesian criticism of the West had a political character – was a rhetoric not a practice.
