Abstract

This book is a compilation of selected papers at the Third International Conference on Elections and Democracy (E&D) on April 19-20 2017, in Kuching Sarawak which carried the theme "Does Democracy Have a Future?'. This meeting of academics, policy makers and political thinkers in Southeast Asia is one of the flagship conferences under the auspices of the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities at Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS). Given the dichotomy between the ideal and reality of democracy and the debates surrounding the practice of democracy across the world, the then Department of Politics and International Relations hosted the E&D hoping that academics, politicians, political parties, bureaucrats, researchers, the media and general public would be able to deepen their understanding of democracy and to debate on the future of democracy. The seven papers selected in this book merit a closer look. They were written by academics and political observers based in Indonesia, Philippines and Malaysia.
