Imagined Communities; reflections on the Origin and spread of Nationalism. Revised Edition1 review
Benedict Anderson

Verso, 1994

A much more nuanced modernist take on Nationalism
While ostensibly a modernist, Anderson's "Imagined Communities" differs from his peers as he, like the primordialists before him, believes that language is central to creating a sense of community or nationalism, although language was not necessarily a decisive factor or the most essential. For Anderson, nationalism is an anomaly which is not accounted for by either Marxian or liberal theory. ...

Nationalism and Revolution in Indonesia (Studies on Southeast Asia, No. 35)1 review
George McTurnan Kahin

Cornell University Southeast Asia Program Publications, 2003

Unexpectedly exciting
The Indonesian struggle for independence and survival in the tricky geopolitics of Cold War Asia is an extremely important historical topic, and one could do a lot worse than start with this book, which originally came out in 1952. George McTurnan Kahin spent a couple of years in the late 1940s in Indonesia doing research, fortuitously during the most tumultous years of the Netherlands Indies' ...
  
  











  



  
Imagined communities: Reflections on the origin and spread of nationalism31 reviews
Benedict R. O'G Anderson

Verso, 1983

A short-lived idea?
The thesis: "Nations" are imagined communities. They don't exist per se, as we will never know the overwhelming majority of our fellow compatriots. Nations don't respect ethnicity, religion, or preferences. They are not entities formed out of voluntary association. They are not optional at birth. They are political concoctions, perceived as limited and sovereign. Independently of the existing ...
  
  











  



  
Mapping the Nation (Mapping Series)2 reviews

Verso Books, 1996

It Gives us Useful Map and Compass for Labyrinth of "Nation"
Very good omnibus book for overviewing the historical and new question on "Nation." Through well-choosen texts from Lord Acton, Bauer to Gellner, Habermas, we can rightly step into the deep forest of the "Nation" and "Nationality" problem, which, we may say, effects even our everyday life. (But there is a regretful thing in this book---Otto Bauer's "Nation" is not a complete translation from ...
  
  











  



  
Language and Power: Exploring Political Cultures in Indonesia1 review
Benedict R. O'g Anderson

Equinox Publishing, 2006

A Must Read Book To Begin Understanding Indonesian Politics
Within his collection of essays in this book, Anderson explores the underlying cultures of Indonesian politics. He ties back the political atmosphere of Indonesia to the social values of the most dominant culture in Indonesia, the Javanese culture. These essays were written prior to 1984 (mostly in the late 60's), but their contents relate well even to the present political scenes of ...

The Spectre of Comparisons1 review
Benedict Anderson

Verso, 1998

A Brilliant Diamond in the Bulk Production on "Nationalism"
I bought, I read, I wonderd. I really think this must be a culminate work on "Nationalism" study among our contemporaries. At first you will see the argument of which this book treats is only limited to a regional/culturual/historical study on so-called Southeast Asia, but the author's brilliant thinking will lead us to the most effective "vantage ground" for analysing the universal ...

Some aspects of Indonesian politics under the Japanese occupation, 1944-1945 (Cornell University. Dept. of ...
Benedict R. O'G Anderson

Modern Indonesia Project, Southeast Asia Program, Dept. of Far Eastern Studies, Cornell University, 1961

The Indonesian revolution, its origins, the course of its development, and its relation to current conditions in Indonesian society has always been a subject of major concern to the Cornell Modern Indonesia Project. Among the principal gaps in the coverage of its history (where both Indonesian and other Asian and Western scholars have given relatively little attention) are the background provided by the final year of Japanese occupation and an ...

When read together, the reader is offered the opportunity to see what might have inspired the early creators of Speculative Freemasonry and see what they saw as the blueprint for Seekers of Light.
