Download or read book Indonesia s Foreign Policy under Suharto written by Leo Suryadinata and published by ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute. This book was released on 2022-01-24 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book, which was first published in 1996, examines Indonesia’s foreign policy under Suharto. It not only details Indonesia’s foreign policy behaviour vis-à-vis Indonesia’s neighbours and major powers, but also places it in the context of foreign policy analysis. Today, the book remains as the only full-length study on Indonesia’s foreign policy under Suharto. It is now reprinted with a new postscript which discusses the post-Suharto era from B.J. Habibie to Joko Widodo. Indonesia under Suharto had attempted to become a regional power to lead Southeast Asian states and beyond. As the largest country and also the richest in terms of natural resources, Suharto’s Indonesia was held in deference by the ASEAN states. However, due to its limited capabilities, its lack of military strength, advanced technology and economic strength, the political influence of Jakarta was in fact quite limited. During the economic crisis, Suharto was forced to step down. He was succeeded by B.J. Habibie who was largely preoccupied with domestic issues, who in turn was followed by weak presidencies such as Abdurrahman Wahid (Gus Dur) and Megawati. Only after the ex-general Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono assumed presidency did he manage to stabilize the situation and attained economic growth. He even became known as the “Foreign Policy President”. Nevertheless, he was constrained by the harsh Indonesian reality: limited resources, a weak military and absence of political influence. His successor Joko Widodo has been more concerned with economic matters and domestic politics; Indonesian regional leadership declines further.
Download or read book Young Soeharto written by David Jenkins and published by ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute. This book was released on 2021-05-06 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a reluctant President Sukarno gave Lt Gen Soeharto full executive authority in March 1966, Indonesia was a deeply divided nation, fractured along ideological, class, religious and ethnic lines. Soeharto took a country in chaos, the largest in Southeast Asia, and transformed it into one of the “Asian miracle” economies—only to leave it back on the brink of ruin when he was forced from office thirty-two years later. Drawing on his astonishing range of interviews with leading Indonesian generals, former Imperial Japanese Army officers and men who served in the Dutch colonial army, as well as years of patient research in Dutch, Japanese, British, Indonesian and US archives, David Jenkins brings vividly to life the story of how a socially reticent but exceptionally determined young man from rural Java began his rise to power—an ascent which would be capped by thirty years (1968–98) as President of Indonesia, the fourth most populous nation on earth. Soeharto was one of Asia’s most brutal, most durable, most avaricious and most successful dictators. In the course of examining those aspects of his character, this book provides an accessible, highly readable introduction to the complex, but dramatic and utterly absorbing, social, political, religious, economic and military factors that have shaped, and which continue to shape, Indonesia.

Download or read book Indonesia written by Taufik Abdullah and published by Institute of Southeast Asian Studies. This book was released on 2009 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the beginning of the process of nation-formation, the struggle for independence, the hopeful beginning of the new nation-state of Indonesia only to be followed by hard and difficult ways to remain true to the ideals of independence. In the process Indonesia with its sprawling archipelago and its multi-ethnic and multi-religious nation has to undergo various types of crisis and internal conflicts, but the ideals that have been nurtured since the beginning when a new nation began to be visualized remain intact. Some changes in the interpretation may have taken place and some deviations here and there can be noticed but the literal meaning of the ideals continues to be the guiding light. In short this is a history of a nation in the continuing effort to retain the ideals of its existence.
Download or read book Tall Tree Nest of the Wind The Javanese Shadow play Dewa Ruci Performed by Ki Anom Soeroto written by Bernard Arps and published by NUS Press. This book was released on 2016-04-18 with total page 646 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Javanese shadow puppetry is a sophisticated dramatic form, often felt to be at the heart of Javanese culture, drawing on classic texts but with important contemporary resonance in fields like religion and politics. How to make sense of the shadow-play as a form of world-making? In Tall Tree, Nest of the Wind, Bernard Arps explores this question by considering an all-night performance of Dewa Ruci, a key play in the repertoire. Thrilling and profound, Dewa Ruci describes the mighty Bratasena’s quest for the ultimate mystical insight. The book presents Dewa Ruci as rendered by the distinguished master puppeteer Ki Anom Soeroto in Amsterdam in 1987. The book’s unusual design presents the performance texts together with descriptions of the sounds and images that would remain obscure in conventional formats of presentation. Copious annotations probe beneath the surface and provide an understanding of the performance's cultural complexity. These annotations explain the meanings of puppet action, music, and shifts in language; how the puppeteer wove together into the drama the circumstances of the performance in Amsterdam, Islamic and other religious ideas, and references to contemporary Indonesian political ideology. Also revealed is the performance’s historical multilayering and the picture it paints of the Javanese past. Tall Tree, Nest of the Wind not only presents an unrivalled insight into the artistic depth of wayang kulit, it exemplifies a new field of study, the philology of performance.

Building educational management and technology for an equitable global civilization requires a multifaceted approach, taking into account the various cultural, economic and political factors that shape the world. Building educational management and technology for an equitable global civilization requires a comprehensive and systemic approach that takes into account the needs and well-being of all individuals, communities and the environment. A just and equitable global civilization must be built on sustainable practices that guarantee the preservation of natural resources and the environment. A just civilization must ensure that all individuals have access to resources, opportunities and basic needs such as food, shelter and health care. Building educational management and technology for an equitable global civilization requires building that takes into account the needs of marginalized communities and addresses systemic inequalities. Building a just civilization must be transparent and accountable, with clear processes and structures for decision-making and resource allocation. This includes involving community members in decision-making processes and providing clear communication about building and resource management. A just civilization must ensure that individuals are safe and physically protected in their buildings and communities. This includes ensuring that buildings are structurally sound and meet safety codes, as well as implementing safety measures to protect individuals from harm. Building education management and technology should prioritize community ownership and involvement, creating spaces and opportunities for individuals to come together, connect and support one another. Overall, building educational management and technology for an equitable global civilization requires a commitment to sustainability, inclusiveness, transparency, security and community building. By prioritizing these values, we can create a more just and equitable world for all. Building educational management and technology for an equitable global civilization needs to continue to encourage the creation of an environment where everyone feels accepted, valued and supported. This means promoting diversity, equity and inclusion in all aspects of organizational and educational practice. It also means taking steps to eliminate bias, discrimination.
