Commodities and Colonialism: The Story of Big Sugar in Indonesia, 1880-1942: Verhandelingen Van Het Koninklijk Instituut Voor Taal-, Land- En Volkenkunde, cartea 286
Autor G. Roger Knighten Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 feb 2013
Author G. Roger Knight, associate professor of history in the University of Adelaide, has researched the history
of Indonesia’s sugar industry for more than twenty-five years, using unpublished archival sources in both the Netherlands and Indonesia. His search has taken him into government records, family histories and – above all – the
extensive surviving papers of the Dutch sugar companies who operated in Indonesia during the late colonial era. The result is a picture of the industry that offers important new insights into its history and its place in the framework of global commodity production over a period extending over three quarters of a century.

Recenzii
"The book is a good read, and will be the text of reference for many years to come. It is impossible to think of a better guide through the intricacies of Java sugar than Knight."
– Peter Boomgaard, KITLV, University of Amsterdam, European University Institute
"The strength of this book [lies] in the qualitative argument and the eloquently presented synthesis."
– Thomas Lindblad, in International Review of Social History 59.1 (2014), p. 141-143.
"While the book is surely essential for anyone interested in sugar, it has even more to offer. Knight’s approach is holistic in the sense that he shows that there is more to the sugar industry than control over land and labour, deployment of global expert knowledge, and entrepreneurship. He convincingly argues that in Java the sugar industry remained entangled with the colonial state, through policies and through personal networks. [...] His work is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand how the Dutch colonial upper layer functioned and managed to secure Dutch colonial and private commercial interests in one go."
