Abstract
This research aims to examine inter-organizational cooperation and its network during emergency response of West Java Earthquake 2009, in Indonesia. In order to do so, the concepts from social network analysis will be used to examine and reveal the pattern of the network. In addition to the several social network measurements, qualitative finding and analytical results will be contrasted with the current institutional arrangement to improve cooperation at the time of emergency response. While, the network identified is similar to the most effective inter-organizational cooperation pattern predicted, as a result, the humanitarian aids delivery performance in this earthquake was somewhat under-performed. Therefore, internal capacity building of disaster-related agencies and network formulation prior the disaster is still needed for better humanitarian aids delivery at the time of disaster.
