Aceng Hidayat Institutional Analysis of Coral Reef Management. A Case Study of Gili Indah Village, West Lombock, Indonesia Shaker Verlag: Institutional Changes in Agriculture and Natural Resources, Aachen, Germany, 2005. ISBN: 3-8322-3815-8, 230 pp., Price: €28.00. Aceng Hidayat gives a fascinating insight into the use and abuse of coral reef ecosystems in Indonesia, and the attempts at different levels to resolve the chaos and manage the resource. He produces a reasonably convincing analysis of these attempts: what has worked, what has not worked and why, plus what are the main threats faced by the current, relatively successful, management regime. He also devotes much time to the presentation of different lines of thought within institutional economics, concerning for instance the nature of institutions, property rights and the driving forces of institutional change. The discussion here is very wide-ranging, but suffers at times from a lack of focus; the author does not develop a coherent framework within which to interpret and criticise the wide-ranging literature. Finally, Hidayat aims to identify the determinants of institutional change in the case study, and to link his findings to existing theories in order to criticise and develop these theories. This is the most difficult challenge he sets himself, and also that where his analysis is least convincing.
