This book presents a great deal of new research findings on the
history of Borneo, the history of Sulawesi and the
interrelationship between the two islands. Some specific chapters
focus on empires and colonizers, including the activities of James
Brooke in Sulawesi, of Chinese mining communities in Borneo and of
the the quisling issue in immediate post-war Sarawak. Other
chapters consider indigenous peoples and how different regimes have
handled them. The book is published in honour of Victor T. King, a
leading scholar in the field of Southeast Asian studies, and a
final chapter discusses his contribution to scholarship, in
particular his views on how area studies should be approached, and
the implications of this for future research.
