State of Emergency




A State of Emergency: Violence, Society and the State in Eastern Indonesia

Sandra Pannell (ed)

This volume explores the historical, cultural and political contexts of religious and inter-ethnic violence by focusing on the recent conflict and unrest in the Moluccas and neighbouring regions.

It brings together the work of a number of anthropologists with extensive research experience in Eastern Indonesia. 'A State of Emergency' presents both cautionary accounts of the consequences of this conflict and encouraging views on the possibilities for reconciliation in Eastern Indonesia.

Contributors:Sandra Pannell, David Mearns, Phillip Winn, Chris Healey, Jill Forshee and Dieter Bartels.
