Prabowo Subianto was inaugurated Sunday as the eighth president of the world’s most populous Muslim-majority nation, completing his journey from an ex-general accused of rights abuses during the dark days of Indonesia’s military dictatorship to the presidential palace.

Prabowo’s party wants to revert to Indonesia’s original authoritarian Constitution. Are there enough guardrails in place to protect the country’s fledgling democracy?
