1. Rhetoric and Practice: Engagement between CSOs and the Word Bank in Indonesia Oleh: Dian Kartikasari

6. Change of World Bank Rhetoric speech in 1997, James Wolfensohn said: The Voice of Civil society, the voice of all of you, is not fringe activity. It’s central to the development process. What we must have in term of new paradigm of the development is a partnership which works, where we get over stereotypes, the stereotypes that many of you had of the Bank of being tough, arrogant, not listening and dictating . Listen now to what the Bank is doing, and I have to tell my colleagues to listen to what civil society saying. We need each other, because the objectives of civil society ant the objectives of the official organization are not on some different path. They are to make the world a better place and to give people opportunity, such as education and better health . It is person to person, people to people, opportunity giving for these countries and we can have an interlinked justification, and we can have moral justification and we can have a social justice justification. (Wolfensohn, 1997b;69)
