Guided by the life and writings of the country's most famous author, Pramoedya Ananta Toer, Adrian Vickers takes the reader on a journey across the social and political landscape of twentieth-century Indonesia in this innovative and timely account. He begins by explaining the country's origins under the Dutch in the early part of that century, the subsequent anti-colonial struggle and revolution which led to independence in 1949. Thereafter the spotlight is on the 1950s, a crucial period in the formation of Indonesia as a new nation, which was followed by the Sukarno years, and the anti-communist massacres of the 1960s when General Suharto took over as president. The concluding chapters chart the fall of Suharto's New Order after thirty two years in power, and the subsequent political and religious turmoil which culminated in the Bali bombings in 2002. Drawing on insights from literature, art and anthropology, Adrian Vickers portrays a complex and resilient people borne out of a troubled past. 607 $aIndonesia$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aIndonesia$xPolitics and government$y20th century 676 $a959.803 686 $a15.75$2bcl 686 $a18.94$2bcl 700 $aVickers$b Adrian$f1958-$0694784 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910806998303321 996 $aHistory of modern Indonesia$91250657 997 $aUNINA
