But I first thank my primary advisors, Professors Jeff Sayer and Intu Boedhihartono, for the unimagined opportunities granted to me, making this research possible. Early time spent with them in their Development Practice Program at James Cook University instilled a philosophically broad-based commitment to research in me. The tenets of that philosophy are taking empathetic, integrated, improvisational (in a musical, jazz sense), experiential, and anti-fragile approach to learning and life. I cannot thank them enough for their inspiration, guidance, and the opportunities they provided. The expansive network of friends and colleagues built over the time of this research, was made possible by my advisors. All of them have been invaluable to this research. I am very thankful to all of my colleagues and friends who have contributed, enabled, or otherwise fostered our team’s ability to conduct research in our problem and solution oriented, action-oriented, and societally embedded way. Dr. Chris Margules deserves special thanks for his unwavering support, commitment, and pragmatic clarity during times of confusion and ambiguity. Professor Terry Sunderland has provided professional and collegial guidance, for which I am also immensely thankful. I thank Professor Paul Dirks for his invaluable guidance on how to approach the research, and how to navigate university structures and processes. I am now good friends with all of my advisors and would not have done it any other way. I am grateful to the College of Science and Engineering at James Cook University for providing the assistance and opportunities through tumultuous restructures at JCU. Janet Catterall, Leanne Shillitoe, and Teresa Carrette have been invaluable support in helping me navigate the administrative pathways and reach the right milestones at the right time. Much of my research was kindled by the drive, diversity, and social stimuli of seven cohorts of the Masters of Development Practice Program at JCU (2011-2017). I am privileged to have been able to get to know them all, and to be a part of their co-learning experience. Without them, I would not have the broad-based understanding of sustainability issues, and the emotional intelligence and empathy I continue to strive for. These thanks are also extended to the PhDs in i the Development Practice Program that came before me – particularly Mercy Rampengan, Adi Gunawan, and especially Lingfei Weng. In the final 1.5 years of my PhD, my primary advisors moved to a new university – the Faculty of Forestry at The University of British Columbia. As a part of their team, I have been a visiting scholar with them there. I am grateful for UBC's Faculty of Forestry’s welcoming and supportive people and for the opportunity to finish my PhD there. Thanks to my family, to my parents David and Deborah, my sister Jennifer, my brother-in-law Peter, and my brand-new twin nephews, Nico and Luca. My parents have always supported and encouraged me to take on challenges and make the most of life. It is with their support that I could be equipped to make the choices that led to the PhD in the first place. My sister has inspired me to keep improving how I can make positive contributions to society. My nephews are born into an exciting but challenging time in the world and I dedicate this thesis to them. Finally, thanks to Rebecca. My partner in life and research – never the two shall part. She counter-balances and supports all I do. I wouldn’t want to do this or anything else without her. I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished and excited for the rest! ii Statement on the Contribution of Others & Authors Consent to Include Publications as Part of PhD Thesis Thesis Title: The Political Ecology of Spatial Development Initiatives, Indonesia Name of James Douglas Langston Candidate: Chapter number Details of publication(s) on Nature and extent of the I confirm the candidate’s contribution and title which chapter is based: intellectual input of each to this paper and consent to the author, including the inclusion of the paper in this thesis candidate Chapter No. 1: Chapter is the original James Douglas Langston is Meine van Noordwijk Discourses publication the senior author responsible Signature: mapped by Q- for the manuscript.

A total of 112 species was recorded, including six of Bum's ten endemic species. Four of the endemic species, Pnoniturus mada, Monarcha loricatus, Rhipidura superflua and Zosterops buruensis were found to be quite common, but Lichmera deningeri and Cworacina fortis are considered to be uncommon or rare. The mountains or Burn from where Madanga ruficollis and Rhinomyias addita have previously beea collected were not visited. Concern is expressed concerning the status of two endemic parrots, Charmosyna toxopei and Tanypiathus gramineus, which were not conclusively recorded and which appear to have always been rare. Six species were recorded for the first tune on Buru. Introduction The Manchester Indonesia Islands Expedition visited the island of Buru between 8 Nov and 10 Dec 1989. The aim of the expedition was to obtain data related to the conservation of bird faunas. The results of the analysis of data on the ecology and habitat preferences of the bird species will appear elsewhere. The purpose of this paper is to present a systematic list of birds recorded on Bum by the expedition, and to publish notes collected for some of the species on moult, nests and vocalisations. During the last sixty years.

The largest and best documented are the events of 1770 and 1859 in the Molucca Sea region, of 1629, 1774 and 1852 in the Banda Sea region, the 1820 event in Makassar, the 1857 event in Dili, Timor, the 1815 event in Bali and Lom- bok, the events of 1699, 1771, 1780, 1815, 1848 and 1852 in Java, and the events of 1797, 1818, 1833 and 1861 in Sumatra. Most of these events caused damage over a broad region, and are asso- ciated with years of temporal and spatial clustering of earthquakes. The earthquakes left many cit- ies in ‘rubble heaps’. Some events spawned tsunamis with run-up heights .15 m that swept many coastal villages away. 2004 marked the recurrence of some of these events in western Indonesia. However, there has not been a major shallow earthquake (M ≥ 8) in Java and eastern Indonesia for the past 160 years.

  • Crisis and Failure: War and Revolt in the Ambon Islands, 1636-1637
    CAKALELE, VOL. 3 (1992) © Gcrrit J. K.naap CRISIS AND FAILURE: WAR AND REVOLT IN THE AMBON ISLANDS, 1636-1637 GERRIT J. KNAAP ROYAL INSTITUTE OF LINGUISTICS AND ANTHROPOLOGY, LEIDEN On January 14, 1637, kimelaha Leliato, the govcmor of the Tematan dependencies in Central Maluku, returned to his headquarters in Lusicla on Hoamoal from an expedition to Sapama with his hongi of 30 kora­ kora. The reason for his sudden rctum was that he had just received a message from Bum informing him of the approach of a large Dutch fleet. That fleet was under the supreme command of Governor-General Anthonic van Diemcn, the hi ghest official in the hierarchy in Asia of the Verenigde Oost-Indischc Compagnie (VOC), the Dutch East India Company. The reason for Van Diemcn's arrival in the islands was the crisis confrdnting VOC mlc there. For many years, since the Dutch had taken over a portion of the islands from the Pottugucsc in 1605, there had been a state of war or, at best, of anned peace with the Tcmatan dependencies in the same area. However, for the past few years the VOC had seen itself also confronted with growing opposition from the territories located between the Tcmatan and Dutch realms. Finally, in 1636, rebellion broke out among the inhabitants of the VOC's own do­ main, who had hitherto mostly supported the Dutch cause with their kora-kora in the hongi (Knaap 1987a: 17-22; Enkhuizen 399:2-3, 16). One might say that the events of 1636-1637 were the severest crisis the Dutch had been confronted with until that time.
