In: Social justice: a journal of crime, conflict and world order, Band 25, Heft 2, S. 131-148

Abstract

Examines how the Indonesian government has tried to suppress the nationalist movement through creation of Indonesian citizens, using language, religion, revised history, and transmigration (sending Javanese and Balinese people to the province) to promote assimilation. Includes brief history of East Timor, birth control and forced sterilization of East Timorese women, and the student resistance movement.
