In a nation pledged to "Unity in Diversity", few industries could be more important than interisland shipping. Yet, since independence, problems plaguing interisland shipping have continued, despite the rehabilitation and modernization under the New Order Government. This book tries to understand the problems in terms of the conflict between market forces and government regulation. In the process it sheds light not only upon the industry but also upon an important aspect of modern Indonesian history, upon the nature of the business firm in Indonesia, and upon the formulation and implementation of government policy.
