Sommario/riassunto

After violent protests all over the country had forced President Suharto to step down in 1998, Indonesia successfully made the transition from an authoritarian state to a democracy. In this book Indonesian scholars attached to Islamic universities and Dutch researchers investigate what happened since and what the consequences are of the growing influence of orthodoxy and radicalism, which already visible before 1998, only got stronger.

Sommario/riassunto

This ebook consists of a summary of the ideas, viewpoints and facts presented by Ron Paul in his book "Liberty Defined, 50 Essential Issues that Affect our Freedom". This summary offers a concise overview of the entire book in less than 30 minutes reading time. However this work does not replace in any case Ron Paul's book.<br>Paul argues that the liberty mentioned in the Declaration of Independence is not truly respected by any party hence that there is a need to embrace an agenda that does free the American citizens. <br>
