Cornell University Press Beyond Oligarchy
Book SynopsisBeyond Oligarchy is a collection of essays by leading scholars of contemporary Indonesian politics and society, each addressing effects of material inequality on political power and contestation in democratic Indonesia. The contributors assess how critical concepts in the study of politicsoligarchy, inequality, power, democracy, and otherscan be used to characterize the Indonesian case, and in turn, how the Indonesian experience informs conceptual and analytical debates in political science and related disciplines. In bringing together experts from around the world to engage with these themes, Beyond Oligarchy reclaims a tradition of focused intellectual debate across scholarly communities in Indonesian studies.The collapse of Indonesia''s New Order has proven a critical juncture in Indonesian political studies, launching new analyses about the drivers of regime change and the character of Indonesian democracy. It has also prompted a new groundswell of theoreticTrade Review"A brilliant and very useful collection in which advocates of the major theses in Australian and American scholarship on Indonesian democratization both present and reflect on their focus on oligarchic versus liberal and plural tendencies. A must-read also in wider circles and for those who try alternative perspectives." -- Olle Tornquist, University of Oslo"At long last, leading experts on Indonesian politics are arguing with each other again. At the heart of this new debate is the importance of material inequality and extreme wealth concentration in shaping the character of Indonesian politics. Beyond Oligarchy collects a series of first-rate essays that both express the power and explore the limitations of analyses that portray the fusion of wealth and domination as the defining deficiency of Indonesian democracy. In so doing, volume coeditors Michele Ford and Thomas Pepinsky boldly break down conventional barriers to scholarly conversations about the most pressing issues and developments in Indonesian political life. Beyond Oligarchy definitively sets a new tone—and arguably sets a new standard—for the study of Indonesian politics after Suharto." -- Dan Slater, University of Chicago, author of Ordering Power: Contentious Politics and Authoritarian Leviathans in Southeast Asia

MB - Cornell University Press The Politics of TimorLeste
Book SynopsisThe Politics of Timor-Leste explores the critical issues facing the Asia-Pacific''s youngest nation as it seeks to consolidate a democracy following years of international intervention. The authors study the challenges that have burdened the state since it broke from Indonesia amid the violence of 1999 and formally achieved full independence in 2002. They assess the notable accomplishments of Timor-Leste''s leaders and citizens, and consider the country''s future prospects as international organizations prepare to depart. A close study of Timor-Leste sheds light on ambitious state-building projects that have been initiated, with varying success, across the globe.Contributors to this volume map the nation''s recent political evolution through studies of its constitutional debates, political parties, and foreign policy responses to powerful neighbors. They address the social and economic conditions that complicate Timor-Leste''s political development, such as gender discTrade Review"The Politics of Timor-Leste is an essential reference point for anyone concerned with the most important political issues to be addressed by the country in the coming years. Its authors provide a comprehensive overview of political parties, and the electoral and judicial systems, and describe the main aspects of development strategies implemented since independence. Insightful analyses are presented of key areas, such as the politics of gender, informal security groups and social movements, and strategies for decentralization. Bringing these topics together in one volume provides a highly useful guide for assessing the possibilities for the continuation and development of democratic processes within Timor-Leste."—John G.

MB - Cornell University Press Exploration and Irony in Studies of Siam over
Book SynopsisBenedict R. O'G. Anderson is internationally known for his groundbreaking work on the politics and cultures of Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines. This collection of essays gathers in one book his analyses of Siam (Thailand), its political institutions and bloody upheavals, its literature, authors, and contemporary cinema.Trade ReviewCombining bold ideas, unflinching critique, and irresistible narratives that weave together statistics, qualitative examples, and suggestive anecdotes, each of these essays demonstrates in quintessential Andersonian fashion the full power of the essay form for serious scholarly writing. Though originally published between the late 1970s and the early 1990s, they continue to resonate and, more importantly, remind one of the increasingly rare thrill that can be had reading academic writing.... Putting the Kingdom's cultural heritage under critical spotlight, as he does in [the] later pieces, Anderson hits where it hurts, perhaps moreso than with any political critique. -- Samoson Lim * Asian Studies Review *

Cornell University Press The Land of Gold
Book SynopsisIn the village of Funar, located in the central highlands of Timor-Leste, the disturbing events of the twenty-four-year-long Indonesian occupation are rarely articulated in narratives of suffering. Instead, the highlanders emphasize the significance of their return to the sacred land of the ancestors, a place where gold is abundant and life is thought to originate. On one hand, this collective amnesia is due to villagers'' exclusion from contemporary nation-building processes, which bestow recognition only on those who actively participated in the resistance struggle against Indonesia. On the other hand, the cultural revival and the privileging of the ancestral landscape and traditions over narratives of suffering derive from a particular understanding of how human subjects are constituted. Before life and after death, humans and the land are composed of the same substance; only during life are they separated. To recover from the forced dislocation the highlanders experienced under Trade Review"The Land of Gold is an ethnography of postconflict life in East Timor that is at once lyrical and devastating. By tracing how diverse relationships to the land—loss, reclamation, and reimagination—shape and are shaped by survivors, Judith Bovensiepen offers a new understanding of the long years of war that captures both the personal and the political." -- Tyrell Haberkorm, ANU College of Asia and the Pacific"In The Land of Gold, Judith Bovensiepen brings a much needed ethnographic perspective to the study of social life in rural, postoccupation Timor-Leste. Villagers who returned to their ancestral origin place after a lengthy period of forced displacement had to reestablish social relations and restore their connections with the spiritual powers of the land. Bovensiepen demonstrates that the ritual processes in which these two imperatives were entangled were fraught with conflicts, tensions, and dilemmas. She argues persuasively that ritual performances brought the traumatic past into the present. As an analysis of how historical experience of political violence both shapes and is shaped by local cultural forms, the book has relevance beyond the region and beyond anthropology." -- Elizabeth G.

Ohio University Press The Return of the Galon King History Law and
Book SynopsisIn late 1930, on a secluded mountain overlooking the rural paddy fields of British Burma, a peasant leader named Saya San crowned himself King and inaugurated a series of uprisings that would later erupt into one of the largest anti-colonial rebellions in Southeast Asian history.Trade Review“Return of the Galon King is a brilliant example of listening to one's sources, rather than talking past them. By trying to understand what the Rebellion Tribunal was actually about, not what we want it to be about, Aung-Thwin has created an indispensable work out of an indispensable historical episode.” * Journal of Southeast Asian Studies *“The Return of the Galon King is a valuable addition not just to the study of Burma, but also the study of Southeast Asian history as a whole.” * Journal of the Economic and Social History of the Orient *“Maitrii Aung-Thwin’s latest study of the Saya San Rebellion is a powerful critique of the existing historiography on the subject…. It represents an important contribution to the study of colonial Burma, particularly by introducing elements of post-colonial theory that have hitherto been absent from the field.” * South East Asia Research *“In a meticulous re-examination of the evidence, (Aung-Thwin) argues convincingly that the narrative of the rebellion was constructed by the colonial authorities from already existing colonial interpretations and reports of Burmese attitudes and peasant behavior. Thoroughly sifting the colonial record and the record of Saya San’s trial, the author shows how a picture of peasant attitudes and behaviour assembled in the half-century before the rebellion was used to define the events of 1930–1932…. For almost seventy years scholars have taken the colonial rendering of the rebellion as the starting point for analysis.” * Asian Review of Books *“An important contribution to Myanmar studies, historiography, and social science methodology.”

Social Science Research Council Transitional Justice and Education Learning
Book SynopsisTrade ReviewThis edited volume provides a rich set of case studies from some of the world's most intractable conflicts and makes an important contribution to the literature on education, conflict, and peacebuilding. It provides practical examples of the ways that education can contribute to transitional justice-through reparations and by addressing educational inequalities, by engaging children and young people in nonformal education, and, the most difficult challenge of all, by helping successive generations learn about the violent conflicts that have affected their own societies. Essential reading for education and development practitioners. -- Alan Smith, Alan Smith, UNESCO Chair in Pluralism, Human Rights and Democracy, Ulster University A crucial addition to work on cultural rights, truth, justice, reconciliation, and nonrecurrence, this collection illustrates the vitality of ensuring multivoice narratives, as stressed in my UN special rapporteur reports on history teaching and memorialization processes. Case studies exploring how education policies can mitigate past injustices or set the pattern for further injustices provide invaluable new insights. -- Farida Shaheed, executive director, Shirkat Gah-Women's Resource Centre, Pakistan, and former UN special rapporteur in the field of cultural rights Transitional justice processes seek to promote social healing in the aftermath of armed violence and authoritarian repression. Transitional Justice and Education: Learning Peace shows the decisive role that schools can play in that healing process through the transformation of our values and our moral imagination. This book presents a deep understanding of the connection between education and peace and provides a rich variety of examples that will undoubtedly strengthen our capacity to build peace upon truth, memory, and justice. -- Salomon Lerner Febres, executive president, Institute for Democracy and Human Rights, Pontifical Catholic University of Peru, and former president of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of PeruTable of ContentsIntroduction, by Clara Ramirez-Barat and Roger DuthiePart I: Post-conflict Education Reconstruction and Transitional Justice 1.
