The aim of the article is to explain the origins and essence of the special autonomy of the Indonesian province of Aceh and the preliminary identification of the political consequences of its implementation. The local Aceh elite has been fighting for autonomy or independence almost since the establishment of independent Indonesia. The autonomy, finally introduced in 2006, contains original political, cultural and economic arrangements. Thanks to autonomy, regional ethnic parties can rule Aceh on their own. However, this is not happening. The article attempts to answer the question why the political effects of the implementation of autonomy in Aceh significantly differ from the predictions of those who fought for it.

The aim of this study is to demonstrate the validity of the thesis that in Indonesia one can find institutions that characterize two power-sharing models which are considered opposites of one another in political theory – centripetalism and consociationalism. In consequence, the Indonesian power-sharing system should be viewed as a hybrid, or mixed, system, and not a typically centripetal system as is usually the case in the literature. At the beginning of this article, a short analysis of Indonesia's political situation is given for the purpose of defining the factors which determined the introduction of inter-segmental power-sharing solutions in that country. This is followed by a description of the specificity of consociationalism and centripetalism. The article goes on to discuss specific institutions of both power-sharing models which exist in Indonesia and ends with some concluding remarks on the thesis advanced at the outset.

The principal aim of this article is to explain the specificity of the requirement for a spatial distribution of votes in presidential elections – an institution that has existed in Nigeria since 1979 and in Indonesia since 2001. It also seeks to describe the political conditions which contributed to that institution’s introduction and functioning in those two countries. The article will end with a comparison between the two cases, including a discussion of the present differences between them. The article will also contain a preliminary appraisal of whether the existence of the requirement in question is helping to reduce the level of conflictive behaviour in relations between ethnic groups in the multi-ethnic societies of Nigeria and Indonesia
