Notes and References Notes and References Chapter 1: The Coming of Islam The contemporaneous evidence for Islamisation is described in Damais, 'L'epigraphie musulmane dans le Sud-Est Asiatique', with references to previous literature; see also Damais, 'Etudes javanaises, I: Les tombes musulmanes datees de Tr~l~j~'. Chinese records are translated in Rockhill, 'Notes on the relations and trade of China with the eastern archipelago'; and in Groenveldt, 'Notes on the Malay Archipelago and Malacca'. On Marco Polo's account see Jack-Hinton, 'Marco Polo in South-East Asia'. Cortesao, Suma Oriental, contains the crucial text of Tome Pires in Portuguese and English translation. The Indonesian chronicles described above are found in the following: Hill, 'Hikayat Raja-raja Pasai'; Brown, Sejarah Melayu; Olthof, Babad Tanah Djawi; Djajadiningrat, Sadjarah Banten. Other legends are described in R. Jones, 'Ten conversion myths'. The two sixteenth-century Javanese Islamic books have both been edited and translated by Drewes: ]avaanse primbon and Admonitions of Seh Bari. A survey of some of the controversies surrounding Islamisation, with special attention to the sources of Indonesian Islam, is in Drewes, 'New Light'. On the Sufi argument see Johns, 'Sufism as a category'. See also Ricklefs, 'Six centuries of Islamisation '. Some materials on Islam in the areas outside of Indonesia which are mentioned in this chapter can be found in Hardy, 'Modern European and Muslim explanations of conversion to Islam in South Asia'; and in Majul, Muslims in the Philippines. Chapter 2: General Aspects of Pre-Colonial States and Major Empires, c. 1300- 1500 The general principles which underlay Indonesian states have been investigated in Moertono, State and statecraft in old java; Schrieke, Indonesian sociological studies (see especially vol. II, p. 102 ff.); and Reid and Castles, Pre-colonial state systems; see also Gullick, Indigenous political systems of western Malaya. Fisher, South-East Asia; and Pelzer, 'Physical and human resource patterns', describe the geography of the archipelago. The standard historical description of Majapahit, now rather out of date, is Krom, Hindoejavaansche geschiedenis. This is the main source for the discussion in Coedes, Les hats hindouises, which has been translated into English as Indian­ ised states of Southeast Asia. Slametmuljana, Story of Majapahit, contains much useful material, but some of the suggestions seem inadequately documented. For NOTES AND REFERENCES 281 the fifteenth century, all of these works have been superseded by Noorduyn, 'Majapahit in the fifteenth century'. A text and English translation of the Nagarakertiigama, and much other useful information, is given in Pigeaud, java in the 14th century. The Pararaton is in Brandes, 'Pararaton (Ken Arok)'; there is an Indonesian translation in Padmapuspita, Pararaton. C. C. Berg has published his arguments in several books and articles; see especially his Rijk van de vijfvoudige Buddha. On Malacca, see Wang, 'First three rulers of Malacca'; Wake, 'Malacca's early kings and the reception of Islam'; and the early chapters of Meilink-Roelofsz, Asian trade and European influence. An attempt to reconstruct Malacca's origins is Wolters, Fall of Siivijaya. The major source for its trade is Cortesao, Suma Oriental. Chapter 3: The Arrival of the Europeans in Indonesia, c. 1509-1620 The background and development of Portuguese overseas expansion are described in Boxer, Portuguese seaborne empire; and in Diffie and Winius, Foundations of the Portuguese empire (this, however, has some errors of detail concerning the Malay-Indonesian area). An excellent analysis of Dutch overseas activities is in Boxer, Dutch seaborne empire. See also Parry, Europe and a wider world, reprinted as Establishment ofthe European hegemony; and Masselman, Cradle ofcolonialism. An examination of Portuguese and early English and Dutch activities in Indonesia is to be found in Meilink-Roelofsz,Asian trade and European influence. Much material is also included in Tiele, 'Europeers in den Maleischen archipel'. A Malay chronicler's view of the conquest of Malacca is given in Brown, Sejarah Melayu. Portuguese and Dutch activities in Maluku are analysed in de Graaf, Ambon en de Zuid-Molukken. On sixteenth-century Maluku see also Abdurachman, 'Moluccan responses to the first intrusions of the West'. Abdurachman et al., Bunga rampai sejarah Maluku (I), covers the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. There is also interesting material collected in da Fran~a, Portuguese influence in Indonesia. Documents concerning Coen's period are in Colen brander and Coolhaas, jan Pietersz. Coen. The events surrounding the conquest of Batavia are described in Ricklefs, 'Banten and the Dutch in 1619'. Chapter 4: The Rise of New States, c. 1500-1650 There is much miscellaneous material on the states discussed above in Meilink­ Roelofsz, Asian trade and European influence. On Aceh and the states of the western archipelago, see Djajadiningrat, 'Geschiedenis van het Soeltanaat van Atjeh'; and Lombard, Iskandar Muda; see also the earlier parts of Andaya, King­ dom of johor. On Java, see de Graaf and Pigeaud, 'Eerste Moslimse vorstendommen op Java'; de Graaf, 'Senapati Ingalaga'; and de Graaf, 'Sultan Agung'. The first of these books lacks an index, which is to be found along with English summaries of the 282 A HISTORY OF MODERN INDONESIA other books listed here and other of de Graaf's writings in Pigeaud and de Graaf, 'Islamic states'. On the later years of Majapahit see Noorduyn, 'Majahapit in the fifteenth century'. The earliest Javanese chronicle so far discovered is published in Ricklefs, Modern j avanese historical tradition. Some Javanese chronicle views on the fall of Majapahit are also published in Ricklefs, 'Consideration of three versions of the Babad Tanab Djawi'. The Cirebon manuscript is published and translated into Indonesian in Atja, Tjarita Purwaka Tjaruban Nagari; its authenticity is doubtful: its paleography and use of Western rather than Javanese dates suggest in fact a twentieth-century origin for the text. See also the Indonesian translation in Sulendraningrat, Purwaka Tjaruban Nagari. For sixteenth-century Java, of course Cortesao, Suma Oriental, is a major source. From the seventeenth century onwards, important VOC documents are published in de Jonge and van Deventer, Opkomst van bet Nederlandscb gezag. Van Goens's reports are in de Graaf, Vijf gezantscbapsreizen van Rijklof van Goens. C. C. Berg's arguments concerning Senapati are found in several of this publi­ cations, of which the most important for this purpose is 'Twee nieuwe publicaties betreffende de geschiedenis en de geschiedschrijving van Mataram'. A reply is found in de Graaf, 'Historische betrouwbaarheid der Javaanse overlevering'. On Makasar see Pelras, 'Les premieres donnees occidentales concernant Celebes-Sud'; Noorduyn, 'Islamisering van Makasar'; Noorduyn, Kroniek van Wadjo '; and Stapel, Bonggaais verdrag. On the Makasarese and Balinese in the Lombok-Sumbawa area see de Graaf, 'Lombok in de 17e eeuw'. ChapterS: Literary, Religious and Cultural Legacies There is a vast literature on the subjects covered in the chapter. Excellent, but already rather out of date, introductions to the scholarship on Malay and Javanese are in Teeuw and Emanuels, Studies on Malay and Bahasa Indonesia; and Uhlenbeck, Studies on the languages of java and Madura. Religious matters are discussed in Stohr and Zoetrnulder, Religionen Indonesiens (also available in a French edition). The best introduction to classical Malay literature is Winstedt, History of classical Malay literature. On the seventeenth-century Acehnese mystics and their doctrines much has been written; see Lombard, Iskandar Muda; Johns, 'Malay Sufism' and 'Islam in Southeast Asia'; van Nieuwenhuijze, Samsu'l-Din van Pasai; al-Attas, Mysticism of Hamzab Fansuri and Ran"in and the Wujudiyyab of 17th century Acheb; and Ito, 'Why did Nuruddin ar-Raniri leave Aceh?'. Malay litera­ ture available in translation is listed in Chambert-Loir, 'Bibliographie de la litterature malaise en traduction'. The most comprehensive survey of Javanese literature is in vol. I of Pigeaud, Literature of java. Zoetrnulder, Pantbeisme en monisme, is still the best analysis of mystical Javanese Islam. Much useful information on Javanese Islam and on Yasadipura I, as well as a valuable text, is contained in Soebardi, Book ofCabolek. English versions of three Javanese shadow plays can be found in Brandon, On thrones of gold. NOTES AND REFERENCES 283 On Old and Middle Javanese literature, see Zoetmulder, Kalangwan. On Middle Javanese see also Robson, Wang bang Wideya. Balinese babads are analysed in Worsley, Babad Buleleng; and Hinzler, 'Balinese babad'. On Bugis and Makasarese, see especially Noorduyn, Kroniek van Wadjo' Noorduyn, 'Origins of South Celebes historical writing'; and Cense, 'Old Buginese and Macassarese diaries'. An introduction to Indonesian art is in Holt, Art in Indonesia. A good intro­ duction to Indonesian music is found in Hood and Maceda, Music; more exten­ sive discussions are contained in Sadie, New Grove dictionary. Chapter 6: Eastern Indonesia, c. 1630-1800 Events in South Maluku are described in detail in de Graaf, Ambon en de Zuid­ Molukken. On the events in South Sulawesi see Andaya, 'Kingship in Bone'; Noorduyn, Kroniek van Wadjo '; Skinner, 'Sja'ir perang Mengkasar'; Stapel, Bonggaais verdrag; and Noorduyn, 'Arung Singkang'. There is also much infor­ mation on the Makasarese and Bugis and their activities in

  • A Review of Thee Kian Wie's Major
    Economics and Finance in Indonesia Vol. 61 No. 1, 2015 : 41-52 p-ISSN 0126-155X; e-ISSN 2442-9260 41 The Indonesian Economy from the Colonial Extraction Period until the Post-New Order Period: A Review of Thee Kian Wie’s Major Works Maria Monica Wihardjaa,∗, Siwage Dharma Negarab,∗∗ aWorld Bank Office Jakarta bIndonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI) Abstract This paper reviews some major works of Thee Kian Wie, one of Indonesia’s most distinguished economic historians, that spans from the Colonial period until the post-New Order period. His works emphasize that economic history can guide future economic policy. Current problems in Indonesia were resulted from past policy failures. Indonesia needs to consistently embark on open economic policies, free itself from "colonial period mentality". Investment should be made in rebuilding crumbling infrastructure, improving the quality of health and education services, and addressing poor law enforcement. If current corruption persists, Indone- sia could not hope to become a dynamic and prosperous country. Keywords: Economic History; Colonial Period; Industrialization; Thee Kian Wie Abstrak Tulisan ini menelaah beberapakarya besar Thee Kian Wie, salah satu sejarawan ekonomi paling terhormat di Indonesia, mulai dari periode penjajahan hingga periode pasca-Orde Baru. Karya Beliau menekankan bahwa sejarah ekonomi dapat memberikan arahan dalam perumusan kebijakan ekonomi mendatang. Permasalahan yang dihadapi Indonesia dewasa ini merupakan akibat kegagalan kebijakan masa lalu. In- donesia perlu secara konsisten menerapkan kebijakan ekonomi terbuka, membebaskan diri dari "mentalitas periode penjajahan". Investasi perlu ditingkatkan untuk pembangunan kembali infrastruktur, peningkatan kualitas layanan kesehatan dan pendidikan, serta pembenahan penegakan hukum. Jika korupsi saat ini berlanjut, Indonesia tidak dapat berharap untuk menjadi negara yang dinamis dan sejahtera.

  • Richtlijnen Voor Een Ontwikkelingsplan Voor De Oostkust Van Sumatra
    Il) ff to hS Richtlijnen voor een ontwikkelingsplan voor de Oostkust van Sumatra R. van de Waal M08201.267 STELLINGEN 1. Naast de toevallige geschiktheid van de bodem en het klimaat van Sumatra's Oostkust voor de teelt van Deli-dekblad heeft met be- trekking tot de grpndruimte en het verkrygen van een goed han- teerbare rechtstitel op de grond het feit, dat dit gebied Ma• leis en Bataks kolonisatiegebied was, de vestiging van de on- dernemingslandbouw ten zeerste bevorderd. 2. Het Maleise adatrecht ten aanzien van de grond heeft de econo- mische ontplooiing van de inheemse samenleving ter Oostkust van Sumatra sterk geremd. 3. Ten onrechte stelt de Gewestelyke Baad voor Zuid-Holland van het Landbouwschap: "Wanneer een bepaald gebied in het uitbreidingsplan tot agra- "risch gebied wordt verklaard, mag geen beperking in het gebruik "worden aangebracht." (Richtlinien voor gemeentelijke uitbreidingsplannen, 's-Hage 1958, blz 11). 4. De wy'ze, waarop de uitbreiding van het wegennet in Nederland wordt voorbereid, is pianologisch onvoldoende. 5. De inrichting van niet bij een provincie ingedeelde gebieden, zoals de IJsselmeerpolders, behoort op een pianologische taak- stelling gebaseerd te zy'n. 6. De onwettige occupatie van ondernemingsgronden op de Oostkust van Sumatra moet in de eerste plaats uit een behoef te aan woon- gelegenheid verklaard worden en niet uit een gebrek aan grond voor de vestiging van nieuwe boerenbedrjjven. 7. Het verhogen van de wooncultuur in minder ontwikkelde gebieden kan op het gehele maatschappeljjke leven van invloed zyn. 8. Vruchtbaar pianologisch werk is vrywel onmogeljjk inlanden, waar onzekerheden bestaan ten aanzien van het institdtionele kader, waarbinnen dat werk moet geschieden, zoals dat in het huidige Indonésie het geval is.

  • From Paradise Lost to Promised Land: Christianity and the Rise of West
    School of History & Politics & Centre for Asia Pacific Social Transformation Studies (CAPSTRANS) University of Wollongong From Paradise Lost to Promised Land Christianity and the Rise of West Papuan Nationalism Susanna Grazia Rizzo A Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) of the University of Wollongong 2004 “Religion (…) constitutes the universal horizon and foundation of the nation’s existence. It is in terms of religion that a nation defines what it considers to be true”. G. W. F. Hegel, Lectures on the of Philosophy of World History. Abstract In 1953 Aarne Koskinen’s book, The Missionary Influence as a Political Factor in the Pacific Islands, appeared on the shelves of the academic world, adding further fuel to the longstanding debate in anthropological and historical studies regarding the role and effects of missionary activity in colonial settings. Koskinen’s finding supported the general view amongst anthropologists and historians that missionary activity had a negative impact on non-Western populations, wiping away their cultural templates and disrupting their socio-economic and political systems. This attitude towards mission activity assumes that the contemporary non-Western world is the product of the ‘West’, and that what the ‘Rest’ believes and how it lives, its social, economic and political systems, as well as its values and beliefs, have derived from or have been implanted by the ‘West’. This postulate has led to the denial of the agency of non-Western or colonial people, deeming them as ‘history-less’ and ‘nation-less’: as an entity devoid of identity. But is this postulate true? Have the non-Western populations really been passive recipients of Western commodities, ideas and values? This dissertation examines the role that Christianity, the ideology of the West, the religion whose values underlies the semantics and structures of modernisation, has played in the genesis and rise of West Papuan nationalism.

  • POLITIK KOLONIAL DAN PERKEMBANGAN SENI TARI DI PURO PAKUALAMAN PADA MASA PEMERINTAHAN PAKU ALAM IV (1864-1878) Oleh : HY
    POLITIK KOLONIAL DAN PERKEMBANGAN SENI TARI DI PURO PAKUALAMAN PADA MASA PEMERINTAHAN PAKU ALAM IV (1864-1878) Oleh : HY. Agus Murdiyastomo ABSTRAK Pusat budaya di Yogyakarta selama ini yang lebih banyak diketahui oleh masyarakat adalah Kraton Kasultanan Yogyakarta, tetapi sesungguhnya selain Kraton Kasutanan masih terdapat pusat budaya yang lain yaitu Pura Paku Alaman. Di Kadipaten telah terlahir tokoh-tokoh yang sangat memperhatikan kelestarian budaya Jawa khususnya seni tari tradisi. Salah satunya adalah Kanjeng Gusti Pangeran Adipati Aryo Paku Alam IV, yang pada masa ia berkuasa, budaya Barat yang dibawa oleh kaum kolonialis melanda daerah jajahan. Hadirnya budaya asing tentu sulit untuk ditolak. Namun demikian denga piawainya KGPAA Paku Alam IV, justru mengadopsi budaya Barat, tetapi ditampilkan dengan rasa dan estetika Jawa, dalam bentuk tari klasik. Sehingga pada masanya lahir repertoar tari baru yang memperkaya seni tari tradisi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengungkap perkembangan seni tari di Pura Pakualaman pada masa pemerintahan KGPAA Paku Alam IV, dan hal-hal apa yang melatarbelakangi penciptaannya. Dalam rangka mewujudkan rekonstruksi ini dilakukan dengan metode sejarah kritis, yang tahapannya meliputi Pertama, Heuristik, atau pencarian dan pengumpulan sumber data sejarah, yang dalam hal ini dilakukan di BPAD DIY, dan di Perpustakaan Pura Pakualaman. Di kedua lembaga tersebut tersimpan arsip tentang Paku Alaman, dan juga naskah- naskah yang berkaitan dengan penciptaan tari. Kedua, Kritik, atau pengujian terhadap sumber-sumber yang terkumpul, sumber yang telah terkumpul diuji dari segi fisik untuk memperoleh otentisitas, kemudian membandingkan informasi yang termuat dengan informasi dari sumber yang berbeda, untuk memperoleh keterpercayaan atau kredibilitas. Ketiga, Interpretasi yaitu informasi yang ada dikaji untuk diangkat fakta-fakta sejarahnya, yang kemudian dirangkai menjadi sebuah kisah sejarah.

Hundreds of thousands of Indonesians were imprisoned without trial, many for more than a decade. The regime that orchestrated the mass killings and detentions remained in power for over 30 years, suppressing public discussion of these events. It was not until 1998 that Indonesians were finally “free” to discuss this tragic chapter of Indonesian history.
