Protected Values and Their Influences on Perceived Procedural Fairness in Highway Project: A Field Survey in South Sulawesi, Indonesia

Setiawan I and Hatori T

Values that are protected against trade-offs, which are known as protected values, can render policy acceptance impossible. The main purpose of this paper was to examine the impacts of residents’ protected values on their perceptions of procedural fairness, which is an important determinant of policy acceptance. A questionnaire survey was completed by 300 residents of three cities in South Sulawesi, Indonesia, that had been affected by a flyover construction project. The results showed that some respondents had protected values based on religious and environmental considerations. These values were also shown to detract from perceptions of procedural fairness. Furthermore, trust in government mitigated this derogation effect.
