Throughout the postwar history of Indonesia, the military have
played a key role in the politics of the country and in imposing
unity on a fragmentary state. The collapse of the authoritarian New
Order government of President Suharto weakened the state and the
armed forces briefly lost their grip on control of the archipelago.
However, under President Megawati, the military has again begun to
assert itself, and re-impose its heavy hand on control of the
state, most notably in the fracturing outer provinces. Based on
extensive original research, this book examines the role of the
military in Indonesian politics. It looks at the role of the
military historically, examines the different ways it is involved
in politics, and considers how the role of the military might
develop in what is still an uncertain future.
