Quotations on Terrorism
The year 2000 showed that terrorism continues to pose a clear and present danger to the international community. Terrorism is becoming a strategy that has a long history, but one that took on a particularly deadly caste beginning in the 21th century. The leaders of some of the most dangerous terrorist groups to emerge in the past decade have headquarters or major offices in Afghanistan, and their associates threaten stability in many real and potential trouble spots around the globe - from Indonesia to the Balkans, Central Asia to the Persian Gulf, Western China to Somalia, and Western Europe to South Asia. Terrorists attempt not only to sow panic but also to undermine confidence in the gove...
Indonesia's War Over Aceh
Presenting the background and history of the war in Aceh, Matt Davies investigates the domestic and regional implications, and common misunderstanding surrounding its various issues.
Nationalism and Regionalism in a Colonial Context
This book describes and analyses Minahasan regional nationalism in the period up to 1942. Attention is given to precolonial antecedents, to the transformations brought about by compulsory coffee cultivation, Christian mission activity and Western education, to the role of local representative councils, to the privileged position which Minahasans came to occupy relative to other Indonesians within the colonial state, and to the ambiguous relationship between Minahasa and the Indonesian nationalist movement. Ideas and models drawn from the theoretical literature on nationalism are used throughout the study to illuminate the processes described. The concluding chapter also includes brief comparisons with other Indonesian regions and with the Philippines, together with an epilogue summarizing the developments of the Japanese occupation and the revolutionary period.
Batavia-Jakarta, 1600-2000
This is an odd book. An extensive and sometimes annotated bibliography, it is not a book in the sense of a narrative. However, if treated as a book in the traditional sense it leads the reader through a broad spectrum of feelings of amazement, curiosity and desire: amazement about the sheer volume, richness and detail of theliterature on Batavia/Jakarta; curiosity about the contents of certain publications or series of publications with attractive titles; and a feeling of desire immediately to begin an investigation into one of the appealing subjects stumbled upon while leafing through. The bibliography contains over 5000 titles classified into 42 broad subject categories. The vast majority of the publications consists of books, but the number of articles is also very substantial. Most of these titles (3500) were produced after 1950. The larger part of the publications are written in Indonesian, Dutch, and to a lesser extent English. But also publications in such languages as French, Chinese, German, Japanese, Russian, and many others were listed. Indexes of authors, of subjects and of titles make this bibliography easily accessible.
Timor's Anschluss
This text establishes from Indonesian newspaper sources the degree of intent that lay behind Indonesia's brutal invasion of the territory of East Timor on December 7, 1975. It reviews Australian acquiescence in the anschluss in the light of the Timor Gap negotiations which resulted in a treaty between Indonesia and Australia to expropriate Timor's undersea oil. This should be of use to those charged with completing the Secretary-General's mandate, and for all scholars who are interested in the second generation of self-determination claims.
Hasan Tiro; Unfinished Story of Aceh
Kepergian Tiro sungguh merupakan kehilangan besar bagi Aceh. Paska – penjajahan Belanda, tidak banyak tokoh ‘segila’ beliau. Sekilas Hasan Tiro lebih revolusioner, karena berani mengancam Jakarta dengan kehendak merdeka (1976) di tengah kepemimpinan orde baru yang over militeristik dan eksis sampai 30 tahun. Ini yang mengakibatkan perjuangan Aceh di pimpinan Tiro sungguh mahal harganya. Selama itu Aceh telah berubah menjadi ‘Serambi Kekerasan’. Ribuan orang meregang nyawa. Karena itu, andai capaian damai (MoU Helsinki 2005) tidak diisi dengan upaya memperbaiki diri Aceh ke yang lebih baik, niscaya mereka yang menamakan diri pahlawan harus bertanggungjawab terhadap ribuan nyawa yang...
