The Killing Season explores one of the largest and swiftest, yet least examined, instances of mass killing and incarceration in the twentieth century--the shocking antileftist purge that gripped Indonesia in 1965-66, leaving some five hundred thousand people dead and more than a million others in detention.
An expert in modern Indonesian history, genocide, and human rights, Geoffrey Robinson sets out to account for this violence and to end the troubling silence surrounding it. In doing so, he sheds new light on broad and enduring historical questions. How do we account for instances of systematic mass killing and detention? Why are some of these crimes remembered and punished, while others are forgotten? What are the social and political ramifications of such acts and such silence?
Challenging conventional narratives of the mass violence of 1965-66 as arising spontaneously from religious and social conflicts, Robinson argues convincingly that it was instead the product of a deliberate campaign, led by the Indonesian Army. He also details the critical role played by the United States, Britain, and other major powers in facilitating mass murder and incarceration. Robinson concludes by probing the disturbing long-term consequences of the violence for millions of survivors and Indonesian society as a whole.
Based on a rich body of primary and secondary sources, The Killing Season is the definitive account of a pivotal period in Indonesian history. It also makes a powerful contribution to wider debates about the dynamics and legacies of mass killing, incarceration, and genocide.

Описание: ARE WE WORTHY? It is a question that haunted Jake and Joey for over a month as they struggled to accomplish what so many people had told them was impossible. For a whole year leading up to the trip, people had gone out their way to tell Jake and Joey, "People don`t hitchhike anymore, morons! You`re gonna die out there if you really go through with this." The boys just gritted their teeth and held their tongue, for it wouldn`t be long until they flew across the country with a one-way plane ticket and a goal to hitchhike almost 3,000 miles back to their hometown. IT TURNED OUT TO BE HARDER THAN THEY EVER EXPECTED... From swerving cars to paranormal experiences in the night, Jake and Joey had their eyes opened to a world of suffering they never knew existed. But every time they starved in the woods, every time they experienced hate, every mile their legs felt like giving out, the same mantra would ring through their minds. "ARE... WE... WORTHY...?" "Are we worthy of success?" "Are we worthy to make it home?" And on the darkest days, "Are we worthy to make it out alive?" This book is a story of vulnerability, heartbreak, and struggle, but through it all, there is a consistent pattern of hope and persistence, even in the darkest of times. We can all relate to the feeling of worthlessness or wonder whether or not we should give up. But if there is anything you can take from this book, it is that you are worthy to rise up and accomplish the impossible, just like Joey Oler and Jake Blue did in the summer of 2018.

Описание: Using documents from the former Indonesian Intelligence Agency`s archives in Banda Aceh this book shatters the Indonesian government`s official propaganda account of the mass killings and proves the military`s agency behind those events.
"There are mechanisms in place" (they tell us) by which we are supposed to be able to guarantee the Rule of Law in this State - which is how and why we remain members of the United Nations, the Council of Europe and the EU. But these mechanisms depend on honest people doing their jobs. Police, lawyers, senior civil servants, judges, TD's, Ministers - and even the President too, all have the power and the responsibility to ensure the Rule of Law and the protection of our fundamental rights. Unfortunately, there are far too many 'shady incentives' to protect those in power - no matter how corrupt or dysfunctional they may be - and if there's one thing the modern Irish State has become expert at - it is the active facilitation and cover-ups of political, white-collar and regulatory crime. In fact, we could very well be the world leaders in those dark arts by now, and all the while, the pretence of Irish democracy and accountability is paraded on the world stage with cunningly-disarming, 'diddle-dee-dee' Irish charm.
This small booklet is a serious, damning indictment of the toxic culture that permeates the Irish political and legal world. It asks and demands that the Irish Government abides by the Rule of Law by first of all acknowledging the multiple documented proofs of serious, criminal wrongdoing by senior officials and office holders who continue to act with brass-necked impunity and contempt for the law, the Constitution and for our fundamental human rights.
The law requires that these people are either reformed, or replaced; gone / sacked / fined / imprisoned - or whatever will ensure that the frauds, the deceptions, the corruption, the thefts of land, of public resources and monies, the perjuries, the lies and forgeries, the frame-ups and targeting of otherwise decent people, the conspiracies and rampant rule breaking in the Courts... that all of this shameful, disreputable activity stops right now
The Government is obliged by law to act on this application for a Public Enquiry. Whether they will or will not, will probably all come down to what they think they can get away with while the public is distracted elsewhere. The very fact that they can dismiss outright any complaints or applications that actually NAME any alleged offender should be warning enough. Over 10 years of systemic stonewalling should seal the deal
If we are to live in an autocratic regime where the Rule of Law only applies only to those of us who are gullible enough or complicit enough to never raise a dissenting voice, then we really need to start thinking of our children's futures, and of all those who came before us and suffered and died for a better world.
Who are we to just give it all away to a shower of career miscreants and moral deviants?
This book contains our arguments for why the Irish State - and particularly the Irish Courts are operating unlawfully and immorally with the full knowledge and complicity of the establishment. It shows how the Rule of Law has effectively been replaced by a fog of misdirection and political deceit, and why we urgently need some honest Courts that do not operate as commercial franchises with the common agenda of protecting the status quo.
This little book also details the arguments and legal reasonings for the setting up of the Peoples Tribunal of Ireland and how it will serve the Irish public. Spend a tenner. Buy this book. Educate yourself and lobby your TD. Start thinking about our country in REAL terms. Do we really want a bunch of gombeens running the place for ever?
