This edition of Indonesia: A Country Study replaces the previous edition, published in 1993. Like its predecessor, this study attempts to review the history and treat in a concise manner the dominant social, political, economic, and military aspects of contemporary Indonesia. Sources of information included books, scholarly journals, foreign and domestic newspapers, official reports of governments and interna-tional organizations, and numerous periodicals and Web sites on Indo-nesian and Southeast Asian affairs. Authors: William H. Frederick and Robert L. Worden.
This volume is one in a continuing series of books prepared by the Federal Research Divison of the Library of Congress under the Country Studies/ Area Handbook Program, formerly sponsored by the Department of the Army and revived in FY 2004 with congressionally-man-dated funding under the sponsorship of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Strategic Plans and Policy Directorate (J-5).
Most books in the series deal with a particular foreign country, describing and analyzing its political, economic, social, and national security systems and institutions, and examining the interrelationshps of those systems and the ways they are shaped by historical and cultural fac-tors. Each study is written by a multidisciplinary team of social scientists.
The authors seek to provide a basic understanding of the observed soci-ety, striving for a dynamic rather than a static portrayal. Particular atten-tion is devoted to the people who make up the society, their origins, dominant beliefts and values, their common interests and the issues on which they are divided, the nature and extent of their involvement with national institutions, and their attitudes toward each other and toward their social system and political order.
The books represent the analysis of the authors and should not be construed as an expression of an official U.S. government position, pol-icy, or decision. The authors have sought to adhere to accepted standards of scholarly objectivity. Corrections, additions, and suggestions for changes from readers will be welcomed for use in future editions.
