ABSTRACT
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.
