Memories of Unbelonging: Ethnic Chinese Identity Politics in Post-Suharto Indonesia
ISBN: 9780824894054 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The ethnic Chinese have had a long and problematic history in Indonesia, commonly stereotyped as a market-dominant minority with dubious political loyalty toward Indonesia. For over three decades under Suharto’s New Order regime, a cultural assimilation policy banned Chinese languages, cultural expression, schools, media, and organizations. This policy was only abolished in 1998 following the riots and anti-Chinese attacks that preceded the fall of the New Order. In the post-Suharto era, Chinese Indonesians were finally free to assert their Chineseness again. But how does an ethnic group...
