The Encyclopedia of Indonesia in the Pacific War: In cooperation with the Netherlands Institute for War Documentation de Peter Post

The Encyclopedia of Indonesia in the Pacific War: In cooperation with the Netherlands Institute for War Documentation: Handbook of Oriental Studies. Section 3 Southeast Asia, cartea 19

Peter Post
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 13 dec 2009
An obvious hiatus amidst the abundance of Pacific War studies is the story of Indonesia during that period. The Encyclopedia of Indonesia in the Pacific War, edited under the aegis of the Netherlands Institute for War Documentation, now fills that gap.
This state of the art work reflects the different experiences and historiographic traditions of Indonesians, Japanese, and Dutch. The aim is to present the developments in the Indonesian archipelago in as much a rational and dispassionate way as possible, taking into account regional and social variations and interpreting them within the international context of pre- and post-war trends. With due acknowledgement of different perspectives, ambiguities, unresolved issues and conflicting views, it sets out to enhance mutual understanding and academic dialogue.

Recenzii

"This volume brings together a fascinating collection of scholarly articles and primary sources, complemented by a truly wonderful, eye-opening, and extensive selection of photographs, describing the history of WW II as it was experienced in Indonesia [...] Since the Japanese period has not been much explored in English-language scholarship on Indonesia, this book is a significant contribution for academic audiences and for others interested in learning more about life on the ground in wartime in a colonial world. This work will be very important for library collections and of immediate use to any university that offers courses in Southeast Asian history and/or social or cultural histories of WW II." – S. Maxim, University of California, Berkeley, in Choice Reviews Online (June 2010).

"This book marks a return to basic historical studies, juxtaposing an amazing range of critical information about the occupation period in Indonesia. This book will change the image of the Japanese occupation, facilitate the sharing of knowledge among scholarly communities, and stimulate a new generation of research on this problematic period of Indonesian history. While I dream of future work, this book is a welcome addition to any bookshelf and well worth the hefty price." – Mayumi Yamamoto, Waseda University, in Journal of Asian Studies (2010).

"The present volume covers this traumatic period in great detail and maintains a long tradition of scholarly research from the present publisher. Whilst it is clearly not aimed at the general public it offers the English-speaking reader an in-depth survey of the subject. It deserves a place in the library of any serious academic institution offering courses relating to Indonesia, the PacificWar or South East Asia more widely."
– Peter Wellburn, in Reference Reviews 25/5 (2011).
