520    "Democracy cannot be implemented overnight. 
       Democratization is an often unpredictable process. This 
       book concentrates on that political transformation in one 
       of Indonesia's most 'traditional' islands, Sumba. Why does
       democratization create such great opportunities for local 
       politicians with their private agenda's? Why does regional
       autonomy, as part of the national democratization program,
       promote socio-economic inequality in West Sumba? This book
       is written out of an intimate knowledge of Sumba's social 
       groupings. Jacqueline Vel lived in Sumba as a development 
       worker for six years in the 1980s and has made frequent 
       return visits for further research since then. She studied
       every stage of 'transition to democracy' in the local 
       context, thus creating this ethnography of 
       democratization. The book analyses themes apparent in a 
       series of chronological events that occurred over a period
       of twenty years (1986-2006). Uma Politics is the sequel of
       Vel's dissertation The Uma Economy, and the title refers 
       to the uniquely Sumbanese type of network politics. The 
       author brings together tradition with the modern economy, 
       government and politics into an evolving, dynamic concept 
       of political culture. Jacqueline Vel is researcher at the 
       Van Vollenhoven Institute of law, governance and 
       development at Leiden University. Part of the research for
       this book was for the Modern Indonesia Project of KITLV in
       Leiden and sponsored by a research fellowship of the IIAS.
       She is currently involved in research on land law, access 
       to justice, and socio-legal aspects of biofuel production 
       in Indonesia"--Publisher's description.
