This book is a collection of essays in Indonesian history and
archaeology dealing with different and multiple trajectories, along
four broad themes. The first part of the book covers competing or
evolving representations of events, customs or traditions, and
historical personae in Indonesian official and popular expression,
as they are shaped by economic, political, and cultural forces. The
second part deals with memories of war and peace, examining
transnational conflict and collaboration, the role of political
elites and state projects dealing with the aftermath of military
aggression, while also focusing on the impact and responses of
civilians. The third part focuses on how state and civil societies
frame historical figures, in ways that transcend the dichotomy of
heroes and victims. The fourth part of the book looks at the way
Indonesian museums and museology serve as sites where new kinds of
memory work occur, in a post-1998 era. The book is designed with
the aim of clearing a space for a plurality of memory works.
Discussions in this volume extend from Loloda island in Eastern
Indonesia, to Sabang island at the north westernmost end of
the archipelago, and to the cosmopolitan centers. Temporally, it
covers the colonial, the post-independence and contemporary eras.
By juxtaposing diverse works, the book offers a new vista of
multiple trajectories of memory being traced out in and about
Indonesia. This is an open access book.
