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. 517 3 $aConflict & Confrontation in South East Asia, 1961-1965 607 $aSoutheast Asia$xForeign relations$zGreat Britain 607 $aGreat Britain$xForeign relations$zSoutheast Asia 607 $aSoutheast Asia$xForeign relations$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$zSoutheast Asia 607 $aIndonesia$xForeign relations$zMalaysia 607 $aMalaysia$xForeign relations$zIndonesia 676 $a327/.0959/09046 700 $aJones$b Matthew$f1966-$01483932 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910811732203321 996 $aConflict and confrontation in South East Asia, 1961-1965$93990245 997 $aUNINA
