Destinies
by Theodore Friend
Book Description: "How can such a gentle people as we are be
so murderous?" a prominent Indonesian asks. That question--and the mysteries
of the archipelago's vast contradictions--haunt Theodore Friend's remarkable
work, a narrative of Indonesia during the last half century, from the postwar
revolution against Dutch imperialism to the unrest of today. Part history,
part meditation on a place and a past observed firsthand, Indonesian Destinies
penetrates events that gave birth to the world's fourth largest nation
and assesses the continuing dangers that threaten to tear it apart.
Friend reveals Sukarno's character through wartime collaboration with
Japan, and Suharto's through the mass murder of communists that brought
him to power for thirty-two years. He guides our understanding of the tolerant
forms of Islam prevailing among the largest Muslim population in the world,
and shows growing tensions generated by international terrorism. Drawing
on a deep knowledge of the country's cultures, its leaders, and its ordinary
people, Friend gives a human face and a sense of immediacy to the self-inflicted
failures and immeasurable tragedies that cast a shadow over Indonesia's
past and future. A clear and compelling passion shines through this richly
illustrated work. Rarely have narrative history and personal historical
witness been so seamlessly joined.

: The Long Oppression
by G. L. Simons

to the independence struggles of the East Timorese and West Papuans. The
