Ethno-religious violence in Indonesia illustrates in detail how and
why previously peaceful religious communities can descend into
violent conflict. From 1999 until 2000, the conflict in North
Maluku, Indonesia, saw the most intense communal violence of
Indonesia's period of democratization. For almost a year, militias
waged a brutal religious war which claimed the lives of almost four
thousand lives. The conflict culminated in ethnic cleansing along
lines of religious identity, with approximately three hundred
thousand people fleeing their homes. Based on detailed research,
this book provides an in depth picture of all aspects of this
devastating and brutal conflict. It also provides numerous examples
of how different conflict theories can be applied in the analysis
of real situations of tensions and violence, illustrating the
mutually reinforcing nature of mass level sentiment and elite
agency, and the rational and emotive influences on those involved.
This book will be of interest to researchers in Asian Studies,
conflict resolution and religious violence.
