Description

Book Synopsis
Offers an analysis of the roots of contemporary violence in one of Indonesia's most ethnically heterogeneous provinces, West Kalimantan. This book reveals the links between ethnic violence and subnational politics. It also demonstrates that the endemic violence in this vast region is not the inevitable outcome of its ethnic diversity.

Trade Review
Fascinating. Davidson's careful historical examination of this decades-long sequence of riots deserves to be read by anyone interested in ethnic conflict and violence. I learned a great deal. - Donald L. Horowitz, Duke University ""Thoroughly grounded in both the burgeoning theoretical literature on ethnic violence and the turbulent history of western Borneo, this nuanced study shows the need to disaggregate such vast entities as Indonesia to understand the 'tipping points' towards violence."" - Anthony Reid, National University of Singapore
