    NONVIOLENT ALTERNATIVES FOR SOCIAL CHANGE – Nonviolent Struggle in West Papua: “We Have a Hope” - Jason MacLeod NONVIOLENT STRUGGLE IN WEST PAPUA: “WE HAVE A HOPE” Jason MacLeod Australian Centre for Peace and Conflict Studies, University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia Keywords: West Papua, nonviolent action, strategic nonviolent action, strategy, pillars of support, self-determination movements, and oppositional consciousness. Contents 1. Introduction 2. Historical background 3. Root causes of the conflict in West Papua 4. The sources of the Indonesian Government’s power in West Papua 5. Armed resistance to Indonesian rule in West Papua 6. Contemporary nonviolent struggle in West Papua 7. Ways forward 8. Conclusion Acknowledgements Glossary Bibliography Biographical Sketch Summary A nonviolent struggle for self-determination has been occurring in West Papua, an Indonesian colony located on the Western rim of the Pacific. A previous Dutch colonial outpost that Indonesia took control of in 1963, West Papua has been the scene of one of the most protracted, complex, and volatile conflicts in the Pacific. The nonviolent struggle in West Papua has rarely been noticed or analyzed in depth by West Papuan scholars whose inquiries have focused on conventional politicking and armed resistance. Nor has nonviolent struggle in West Papua been investigated by those conducting research into the dynamics of nonviolent action. The nonviolent struggle for self- determination in West Papua has also received little sustained analytical attention from domesticUNESCO Indonesia media outlets adding – to widespreadEOLSS Indonesian ignorance about the causes of West Papuan grievances. A banning on foreign journalists traveling to West Papua has further contributed to West Papua’s marginalization in the international press.
