The Indonesian massacres of 1965-1966 claimed the lives of an
estimated half a million men, women and children. Histories of this
period of mass violence in Indonesia's past have focused almost
exclusively on top-level political and military actors, their roles
in the violence, and their movements and mobilization of
perpetrators. Based on extensive interviews with women survivors of
the massacres and detention camps, this book provides the first
in-depth analysis of sexualised forms of violence perpetrated
against women and girl victims during this period. It looks at the
stories of individual women caught up in the massacres and mass
arrests, focusing on their testimonies and their experiences of
violence and survival. The book aims not only to redress the lack
of scholarly attention but also to provide significant new analysis
on the gendered and gendering effects of sexual violence against
women and girls in situations of genocidal violence.
