The Indonesia-Malaysia confrontation - a crisis which was, as Macmillan remarked to Kennedy, 'as dangerous a situation in Southeast Asia as we have seen since the war' - was a complex test of Anglo-American relations. As American commitment to Vietnam accelerated under the Kennedy and Johnson administrations, Britain was involving herself in an 'end-of-empire' exercise in state-building which had important military and political implications for both nations. In this book Matthew Jones provides a detailed insight into the origins, outbreak and development of this important episode in international history; using a large range of previously unavailable archival sources, he illuminates the formation of the Malaysian federation, Indonesia's violent opposition to the state and the Western Powers' attempts to deal with the resulting conflict.Conflict & Confrontation in South East Asia, 1961-1965Southeast AsiaForeign relationsGreat BritainGreat BritainForeign relationsSoutheast AsiaSoutheast AsiaForeign relationsUnited StatesUnited StatesForeign relationsSoutheast AsiaIndonesiaForeign relationsMalaysiaMalaysiaForeign relationsIndonesia327/.0959/09046Jones Matthew1966-1483932UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910783116403321Conflict and confrontation in South East Asia, 1961-19653702304UNINA
