Kendala-kendala Sejarah dalam Penerimaan Etnis Cina di Indonesia yang Multikultural
Indonesia's motto (Bhinneka Tunggal Ika), like that of the United States ( E pluribus unum ), suggests a multicultural unity in diversity appropriate to such a large nation comprising hundreds of ethnic groups ( suku bangsa ). Not every ethnic group has been treated in the same way, however. Ethnic Chinese Indonesians have been classified as people of foreign descent ( keturunan asing ) rather than as a suku bangsa , although many peranakan Chine…
Chinese Overseas: The Particular and the General
The study of Chinese overseas is part of the study of humanity. To make it manageable, we have to reduce its scope. To make it meaningful, we have to use generalizations or abstract terms which encapsulate generalizations. Like human beings as a whole, the Chinese overseas are very heterogeneous, but we believe that somehow they are a meaningful subject of scholarly study. The paper explores some of the dilemmas of the general and the particular …
A genocide that never was: Explaining the myth of anti-Chinese massacres in Indonesia, 1965–66
Many publications refer incorrectly to extensive massacres of Chinese in Indonesia in 1965–66. Approximately half a million people were killed in this period, but the victims were overwhelmingly members and associates of the Indonesian Communist Party (PKI). Chinese Indonesians experienced serious harassment but relatively few were killed. The persistence of this myth is attributed to a trope dating back to the seventeenth century which equates t…

Revisiting Furnivall's 'plural society: Colonial Java as a mestizo society
J. S. Furnivall's characterization of Java in the last half-century of colonial rule as a 'plural society' has largely been taken for granted by most scholars who have supported or opposed the applicability of the concept in a Caribbean or African context. In the 'plural society' of colonial Java, according to Furnivall, Europeans, Chinese and natives each held by their own religion, their own culture and language, meeting as individuals only in …
Language and Power: Exploring Political Cultures in Indonesia
In this lively book, Benedict R. O'G Anderson explores the cultural and political contradictions that have arisen from two critical facts in Indonesian history-that while the Indonesian nation is young, the Indonesian state is ancient, originating in the early seventeenth-century Dutch conquests; and that contemporary politics are conducted in a new language, Bahasa Indonesia, by peoples (especially the Javanese) whose cultures are rooted in medi…

Liem Thian Joe's Unpublished History of Kian Gwan
Studies on the role of the overseas Chinese in the economies of Southeast Asia are rare enough, despite their generally acknowledged importance.This has been particularly true of Indonesia, and consequently it is a matter of some interest to discover an unpublished history of Kian Gwan (Oei Tiong Ham Con- cern), the biggest and longest-lasting Chinese business of all in Indonesia.Further interest

The Origins of Confucianism as an Organized Religion in Java, 1900–1923
Singularly little scholarly work has been devoted to the religious life of the Chinese of Southeast Asia. This is particularly true of the Indonesian Chinese. The only major work on Chinese religion in Indonesia to appear in decades is Les Chinois de Jakarta: Temples et Vie Collective . The unique and astonishing transformation of Confucianism into an organized religion as practised today under the auspices of MATAKIN (Majelis Tinggi Agama Khongh…
