Abstract

Tulisan ini menemukan bahwa implementasi dari program desentralisasi di Indonesia selama 1999-2002 tidak selalu mencerminkan akuntabilitas yang lebih baik dan mampu membawa keuntungan sosial berdasarkan rent based on transfer arrangement ketimbang sistim sentralisasi dari rejim Orde Baru. Terlihat bagaimana rents based on transfers secara massive di zaman Orde Baru diatur berdasarkan aliansi dari militer, birokrasi, dan kapitalis, yang dengan aturan dan institusinya menangani masalah koordinasi dan meminimasi ongkos politik (political cost). Sebagai hasilnya, pembangunan kapitalis masih nampak. Di lain pihak, desentralisasi sejak 1999, meskipun secara signifikan telah memindahkan rents based on transfer kepada tingkat lokal (kabupaten), belumlah memperlihatkan tipe baru dari kapitalis yang lebih produktif. Selain itu, desentralisasi, hingga data 2002, meningkatkan biaya dalam mengorganisasikan rents based on transfer yang baru.
