Abstract

This study illustrates the extent to which Indonesia’s political economy played on the New Order pattern until after the New Order. All kinds of studies and issues regarding local strongmen, groups, tribes, and families to the struggle for material resources for political interests have been at a level that creates crises in the republic and conflicts of interest that occur that affect the course of the post-New Order government so that the narrative of capitalism and all forms of distribution of wealth and inequality has reached the peak of elite exchange and unity. The problem in this study is how the Chinese capitalist elite and the indigenous capitalist elite build post-authoritarian capitalism, how the efforts of the Chinese elite and the Indigenous elite influence and play a role in electoral politics, and how the exchange of interests between the Chinese capitalist elite and the Indigenous elite. To answer the formulation of the problem, the author uses qualitative methodology with a case study approach to see how the case of exchange capitalism develops. So the author sees that the exchange of interests between the indigenous elite and the Chinese elite since the post-new order tries to unite interests further responsively, measurably and the Chinese group as a minority tries to build unity from a cultural perspective through a religious perspective and tries to enter and mingle in socio-political activities and political parties.
