  • The Dutch Strategic and Operational Approach in the Indonesian War of Independence, 1945– 1949
    Scientia Militaria, South African Journal of Military Studies, Vol 46, Nr 2, 2018. doi: 10.5787/46-2-1237 THE DUTCH STRATEGIC AND OPERATIONAL APPROACH IN THE INDONESIAN WAR OF INDEPENDENCE, 1945– 1949 Leopold Scholtz1 North-West University Abstract The Indonesian War of Independence (1945–1949) and the Dutch attempt to combat the insurgency campaign by the Indonesian nationalists provides an excellent case study of how not to conduct a counter-insurgency war. In this article, it is reasoned that the Dutch security strategic objective – a smokescreen of autonomy while keeping hold of political power – was unrealistic. Their military strategic approach was very deficient. They approached the war with a conventional war mind- set, thinking that if they could merely reoccupy the whole archipelago and take the nationalist leaders prisoner, that it would guarantee victory. They also mistreated the indigenous population badly, including several mass murders and other war crimes, and ensured that the population turned against them. There was little coordination between the civilian and military authorities. Two conventional mobile operations, while conducted professionally, actually enlarged the territory to be pacified and weakened the Dutch hold on the country. By early 1949, it was clear that the Dutch had lost the war, mainly because the Dutch made a series of crucial mistakes, such as not attempting to win the hearts and minds of the local population. In addition, the implacable opposition by the United States made their war effort futile. Keywords: Indonesian War of Independence, Netherlands, insurgency, counter- insurgency, police actions, strategy, operations, tactics, Dutch army Introduction Analyses of counter-insurgency operations mostly concentrate on the well- known conflicts – the French and Americans in Vietnam, the British in Malaya and Kenya, the French in Algeria, the Portuguese in Angola and Mozambique, the Ian Smith government in Rhodesia, the South Africans in Namibia, et cetera.

  • The British and Dutch in the Netherlands East Indies 1945-1946
    The British Empire at War Research Group Research Papers No. 5 (2014) ‘A Common Approach? The British and Dutch in the Netherlands East Indies, 1945-1946’ Maikel Vrenken 1 The British Empire at War Research Papers series publishes original research online, including seminar and conference presentations, theses, and synoptical essays. British Empire at War Research Group Defence Studies Department, King’s College London Email: [email protected] Website: http://britishempireatwar.org 2 Background and abstract At the end of the Second World War the British-led Allied command structure known as South East Asia Command (SEAC) became responsible for the Netherlands East Indies (NEI) and its restoration to Dutch rule. This paper analyses to what extent the British and Dutch political and military authorities adopted, coordinated and adjusted a common approach to return the NEI to Dutch control. The paper concludes that there was good coordination at the end of the Second World War when a common approach was adopted on the grand strategic, strategic and operation levels. As time progressed and circumstances changed, however, cracks appeared in the common approach that eventually led to a rupture. The coordination between both countries and their officials deteriorated in the last months of British presence; from a very good coordination to a situation where only very basic information was exchanged. About the author Maikel Vrenken is a lieutenant colonel in the Royal Netherlands Army and has an MA in Military History from the University of Amsterdam. This research paper is based upon the dissertation he wrote as part of the King’s College London MA in Defence Studies.

  • The Civil and Military Dimensions of Dutch Counter- Insurgency on Java, 1947-49
    British Journal for Military History, Volume 1, Issue 2, February 2015 The Civil and Military Dimensions of Dutch Counter- Insurgency on Java, 1947-49 THIJS BROCADES ZAALBERG Netherlands Institute for Military History Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Despite its seemingly overwhelming military superiority, the Netherlands never came close to defeating the increasingly effective nationalist insurgency on Java in the late 1940s. This article argues that the desperate state of the Dutch counter-insurgency campaign—which tends to be overlooked for the crucial years 1947-1948—is best demonstrated by focussing on the failure of the colonial power to integrate the civilian and military efforts and on its inability to govern reoccupied territory during the ‘pacification phase’. The Netherlands East Indies, the precursor to the state known since 1949 as Indonesia, was created through gradual imperial conquest since the seventeenth century. During this process of colonial expansion, the Dutch colonial army frequently met with irregular resistance. Through a process of trial and error lessons were learned but mostly lost in between campaigns. Soon after the Second World War, as the Japanese occupation of the Netherlands East Indies came to an end, the Dutch armed forces again found themselves fighting a guerrilla war. As opposed to the localised pre-war rebellions, they now faced a full-blown nationalist insurgency throughout the vast archipelago of which they controlled little more than the fringes. This counter-insurgency campaign, which lasted until 1949, was undoubtedly the largest in Dutch colonial history. The Dutch not only had to fight it halfway across the world but also in the wake of five years of Nazi occupation of the motherland and without significant international support.

  • CLASS and ETHNIC CONFLICT in INDONESIA's DECOLONIZATION PROCESS: a STUDY of EAST SUMATRA Michael Van Langenberg This Article
    CLASS AND ETHNIC CONFLICT IN INDONESIA'S DECOLONIZATION PROCESS: A STUDY OF EAST SUMATRA Michael van Langenberg This article examines the class and ethnic conflicts that characterized the later stage of the Indonesian National Revolution in a region with a particularly complex social composition--the former Residency of East Sumatra. It focuses in particular on the forces that made possible the establishment (with Dutch support) of an "autonomous” state in East Sumatra, the so-called Negara Sumatera Timur (NST), which lasted from December 1947 to August 1950. It also suggests that the way in which these forces were mobilized and articulated politically contributed signifi­ cantly to the state's eventual demise, and left behind deep antagonisms which con­ tinue to affect the region's politics today. The original "mass" base for the NST had been produced out of the enormous structural changes resulting from Dutch colonial rule between 1870 and 1942. Three ethnolinguistic groups in East Sumatra--Malays, Simalungun and Karo--quite con­ sciously viewed themselves as the indigenous inhabitants (orang asli) of the region. The Malays and Simalungun particularly felt themselves threatened by the flood of immigrants--Javanese, Chinese, Toba Batak, and others--which had poured into the area since the development there of a vast plantation economy from the end of the nineteenth century. At the same time, these orang asli were divided among themselves, insofar as the Malays had, since the advent of colonial rule, been politi­ cally dominant, and expected to maintain that dominance within the NST. Superimposed on these interests, and crosscutting them to some extent, were those of the "traditional" local aristocracies (often termed the kerajaan) , 1 through whom the Dutch ruled, and who, in many cases, had derived vast wealth from the plantation economy.
