Suharto's Indonesia

---

The Republic of Indonesia lies to Australia's north; its population is 136 million and it is ruled by President Suharto. What kind of man is he, and how did he come to power? What is happening in Indonesia and what are Suharto's plans for the future of his country? To gain a basic understanding of Indonesian politics, Hamish McDonald first explains the dynamics of the Javanese culture and against this background describes the rise of Suharto, the nature of his power-base and his final accession to power in 1967. The author then proceeds to examine the re- Structuring of the Indonesian economy under Suns to the role of the army in politics, the effects of patronage and corruption and the rise and fall of Pertamina-the state oil corporation. The Indonesian take-over of East Timor is described in some detail and, finally, Hamish McDonald looks at the fate of Indonesia's political prisoners whose first-hand interviews are recorded in this book. Suharto's Indonesia is the most up-to-date and timely book written yet on the Republic and no Australian can afford to ignore the internal and external activities of this populous and highly volatile neighbour.
