    SETTING HISTORY STRAIGHT? INDONESIAN HISTORIOGRAPHY IN THE NEW ORDER A thesis presented to the faculty of the Center for International Studies of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Sony Karsono August 2005 This thesis entitled SETTING HISTORY STRAIGHT? INDONESIAN HISTORIOGRAPHY IN THE NEW ORDER by Sony Karsono has been approved for the Department of Southeast Asian Studies and the Center for International Studies by William H. Frederick Associate Professor of History Josep Rota Director of International Studies KARSONO, SONY. M.A. August 2005. International Studies Setting History Straight? Indonesian Historiography in the New Order (274 pp.) Director of Thesis: William H. Frederick This thesis discusses one central problem: What happened to Indonesian historiography in the New Order (1966-98)? To analyze the problem, the author studies the connections between the major themes in his intellectual autobiography and those in the metahistory of the regime. Proceeding in chronological and thematic manner, the thesis comes in three parts. Part One presents the author’s intellectual autobiography, which illustrates how, as a member of the generation of people who grew up in the New Order, he came into contact with history. Part Two examines the genealogy of and the major issues at stake in the post-New Order controversy over the rectification of history. Part Three ends with several concluding observations. First, the historiographical engineering that the New Order committed was not effective. Second, the regime created the tools for people to criticize itself, which shows that it misunderstood its own society. Third, Indonesian contemporary culture is such that people abhor the idea that there is no single truth.

  • Nationalism and National Culture in Indonesian Art Music and Performances (1900-2018): Reflections from Postcolonial Perspectives
    Nationalism and National Culture in Indonesian Art Music and Performances (1900-2018): Reflections from Postcolonial Perspectives Aniarani Andita 5837456 MA Thesis Musicology Utrecht University First Reader/Supervisor: Dr. Floris Schuiling Second Reader: Dr. Barbara Titus 2018 ABSTRACT Partha Chatterjee (1997) affirms that the attitude to modernity in formerly-colonized societies is always deeply ambiguous, because the modernity that the colonizers used as justification for colonialism also taught the colonized societies of its values. Indonesia is not an exception; having been colonized for centuries by a European nation, Indonesian nationalism arose from the desire for freedom from the colonizer. However, this nationalism, and the subsequent attempts for the creation of national culture has have always been replete with ambivalencies—with negotiations between the need to create a distinct national identity and the values of European cultures as imposed in the colonial time. This thesis looks at the discourses of nationalism, national culture, and national music in Indonesia since the beginning of the twentieth century to the present day, and examine its manifestations in the field of Indonesian art music and its performances by Indonesian symphony orchestras. I argue that these discourses and actions have always been embedded with a legacy of colonialism in the form of xenocentrism in its broad sense: the tendency among Indonesians to continue to concern about the Western others as they try to define their own identity and culture. Moreover, through case studies such as the compositions Varia Ibukota by Mochtar Embut and Suvenir dari Minangkabau by Arya Pugala Kitti, and the practices of contemporary symphony orchestras Gita Bahana Nusantara and Jakarta City Philharmonic, I employ postcolonial theories to view those works as reflections of the entanglement between colonial history and Indonesia-specific visions, as well as as endeavours to decolonize the knowledge of European classical music and performance form.

  • Case Study on Bina Nusantara University Students of Alam Sutera Campus
    Nationalism in the Perspective of Indonesia's Young Generation: Case Study on Bina Nusantara University Students of Alam Sutera Campus Petrus Hepi Witono1, Frederikus Fios2 1 Character Building Development Center, Industrial Engineering Department, School of Indutrial Engineering, Bina Nusantara University, Jakarta, Indonesia, 11480 2 Character Building Development Center, Computer Science Department, School of Computer Science, Bina Nusantara University, Jakarta, Indonesia, 11480 Keywords: Nationalism, young generation. Abstract: The discourse on nationalism is still interesting to discuss as it relates to the noble pride and dignity of the nation that we must accept in the reality of life. The concept of nationalism requires every individual as a citizen to have the attitude, perspective and firm belief in the future of young generation based on an understanding of what happened in the past and the present. Nationalism gives a distinct identity. When the younger generation does not care anymore about the future of the nation, the nation's nationalism is being eroded. The attitude of nationalism will encourage an individual to have a patriotic attitude as an expression of a high sense of love to his own homeland. The aim of this research is to know the quality of nationalism of Indonesian young generation and to reflect its concrete impact on the commitment of every individual as a young generation to live well as citizens of Indonesia. The research used qualitative method with interview and open question to 10 young generations (student of Bina Nusantara University of Alam Sutera Campus) as sample. The theoretical framework uses the thought of nationalism from Louis Snyder (1964).

  • Eaton Dissertation
    Governing Shōnan: The Japanese Administration of Wartime Singapore Clay Eaton Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2018 © 2018 Clay Eaton All rights reserved ABSTRACT Governing Shōnan: The Japanese Administration of Wartime Singapore Clay Eaton The Japanese military administration of Southeast Asia during the Second World War was meant to rebuild the prewar colonial system in the region under strong, centralized control. Different Japanese administrators disagreed over tactics, but their shared goal was to transform the inhabitants of the region into productive members of a new imperial formation, the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere. Shōnan, the wartime name for Singapore, was meant to be the center of this Co-Prosperity Sphere in Southeast Asia. It was the strategic fulcrum of the region, one of its most important ports, and a center of culture and learning for the wartime Japanese. Home to thousands of Japanese administrators during the war and a linguistically, ethnically, and religiously diverse local population, Shōnan was a site of active debates over the future of the Sphere. Three assumptions undergirded these discussions: that of Japanese preeminence within the Sphere, the suitability of “rule by minzoku (race)” for Southeast Asians, and the importance of maintaining colonial social hierarchies even as Japanese administrators attempted to put the region on a total war footing. These goals were at odds with each other, and Japanese rule only upended social hierarchies and exacerbated racial tensions. The unintended legacy of the wartime empire lay, not only in the new opportunities that Japanese rule afforded to Southeast Asian revolutionaries, but in the end of the politics of accommodation with imperial power practiced by prewar Asian elites.

  • CHAPTER 7 the Indonesian Massacres ROBERT CRIBB During
    The Indonesian Massacres 289 CHAPTER 7 The Indonesian Massacres ROBERT CRIBB During the six-month period from October 1965 to March 1966, approximately half a million people were killed in a series of massacres in Indonesia. The victims were largely members of the Indonesian Communist Party (Partai Komunis Indonesia, PKI) which until that time had been the largest Communist Party in the non-Communist world. By 1965 it appeared to many observers inside and outside Indonesia that the Party was well-placed to come to power after President Sukarno‘s departure. The massacres followed an attempted coup d‘etat in the Indonesian capital, Jakarta, in which the PKI was implicated, at least in the public mind, by circumstance and vigorous military propaganda, and resulted in the Party‘s destruction. These massacres paved the way for the accession to power of a business-oriented and military-dominated government under General Suharto. Who Committed the Genocide? The Indonesian killings were the work of anti-Communist army units and civilian vigilantes, drawn especially, but by no means exclusively, from religious political parties. Both groups brought to the killing a long-standing hatred of Communism. The army‘s hostility dated from the years of armed struggle against the Dutch (1945–1949), when Communist influence had been strong both within army units and among independent irregular troops, or lasykar. The professional soldiers who soon struggled through and up into the top military positions resented both Party influence in the junior ranks and the independent Communist units that challenged their monopoly of armed force. Resentment had become alarm when the crypto- Communist Defense Minister Amir Syarifuddin attempted to introduce political commissars into army units in 1946.

    International Journal of Innovation, Creativity and Change. www.ijicc.net Volume 14, Issue 4, 2020 Nation Building in Southeast Asia: A Comparative Study Yeni Wijayantia, Yat Rospia Bratab, Hieronymus Purwantac, a,bDepartment of History Education, Galuh University, cDepartment of History Education, Sebelas Maret University, Email: c*[email protected] This article aims to compare the efforts among Southeast Asian countries in nation-building. Each country has its uniqueness in developing its national identity. Countries in Southeast Asia conducted several methods, such as cultural, linguistic, and educational approaches. This study uses the Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). Data collection was carried out by a documentary study. Data analysis is implemented by interrelating the three-dimensional analysis process, namely analysing the text verbally and visually, analysing the process of the text production, and analysing the historical and social conditions that influence it. The findings show that countries in Southeast Asia carried out nation-building under different approaches, namely, cultural, linguistic, and educational approaches. Key words: Nation-building, Southeast Asia, comparison, culture, language, education. Introduction Nation-building is the process of developing citizenship, so there are many similarities, such as shared interests, goals, and preferences. The similarities become a power that can reduce dispute and develop civic life toward national integration (Alesina, & Bryony Reich, 2015; Blackburn, 2010). Historically, there was a similarity of fate that occurred during the emergence of nationalism in the early 20th century (Susanto, 2016). Various ethnicities had the same fate as colonised countries, which led them to fight colonialism and build independent and sovereign nation-states (Renan, 1882).
