Voices from Asians and Europeans on "The Future of Asia-Europe Cooperation"

The Asia-Europe Foundation (ASEF) is an inter-governmental, not-for-profit organisation that promotes understanding and interactions between Asia and Europe. In 2022-2023, ASEF is celebrating its 25th Anniversary. The past 25 years have been an extraordinary opportunity to bring Asia and Europe closer. The next 25 years could be more challenging; in a fragmenting world, it could also mean a bigger role for ASEF given its bridging capabilities and its reputation as an honest broker. As the only permanent institution of the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM), the future of ASEF is inextricably linked to ASEM. How would Asia-Europe Cooperation look like 25 years from now? What are the driving forces? What do Asians and Europeans stand to gain or lose? What is at stake? What is your vision for ASEM’s destination? Voices from Asians and Europeans on The Future of Asia-Europe Cooperation: An Essay Competition Commemorating ASEF’s 25th Anniversary collects 68 essays from Asians and Europeans that elaborate on this topic, seeking to answer these questions and present the hopes for the future of Asia-Europe cooperation.

Buried Histories

In 1965–66, army-organized massacres claimed the lives of hundreds of thousands of supporters of the Communist Party of Indonesia. Very few of these atrocities have been studied in any detail, and answers to basic questions remain unclear. What was the relationship between the army and civilian militias? How could the perpetrators come to view unarmed individuals as dangerous enemies of the nation? Why did Communist Party supporters, who numbered in the millions, not resist? Drawing upon years of research and interviews with survivors, Buried Histories is an impressive contribution to the literature on genocide and mass atrocity, crucially addressing the topics of media, military organization, economic interests, and resistance.

The Routledge International Handbook of Disability Human Rights Hierarchies

Disability is defined by hierarchy. Regardless of culture or context, persons with disabilities are almost always pushed to the bottom of the social hierarchy. With the advent of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (2006), disability human rights seemingly provided a path forward for tearing down ableist social hierarchies and ensuring that all persons with disabilities everywhere were treated equally. Despite important progress, the disability human rights project not only remains incomplete, but has often created new hierarchies among persons with disabilities themselves or across the human rights it promotes. Certain groups of persons with disabilities have gained ne...

Visual Culture of Chinese Diasporas in Asia

  • Categories: Art

In this respect, visual culture emerges from the need to bridge and explore the gap between the diversely rich visual experience in postmodern culture, and the ability to understand it. What kind of visual experience meant in this relation to postmodernism? It is the visual experience of the consumers (rather than the producers) shaped by “complex, overlapping and disjunctive order” of understanding the visualized everyday life events.

Saat meliput ke kantor Golkar, Virdika Rizky Utama yg saat itu bertugas sbg wartawan Gatra melihat tumpukan dokumen yg tampaknya akan dibuang. Ia pun mendekati tumpukan tsb, melihat-lihat, dan ia menemukan sesuatu yg mengejutkan: surat Fuad Bawazir ke Akbar Tanjung terkait rencana penggulingan Gus Dur. Dokumen itu pun ia simpan, yg kemudian ia tindaklanjuti dg sejumlah wawancara para tokoh yang disebut seperti Amien Rais, yang akhirnya menjadi buku ini. Buku yang mengubah persepsi orang terkait apa yang terjadi dengan presiden pertama era reformasi yang dikenal jenaka, demokratis, pluralis dan sekaligus penuh kontroversi: Gus Dur. Sejak pertama diterbitkan akhir Desember 2019–bersamaan dg haul Gus Dur yang ke-10, buku ini telah memicu banyak kontroversi. Orang-orang yg sempat diwawancarai memilih tutup mulut begitu buku ini terbit dan mendapat banyak perhatian. Hanya dalam waktu dua bulan buku ini cetak lebih dari 20 ribu eksemplar. Buku ini didiskusikan di berbagai tempat, terutama di lingkungan NU, sampai covid menghentikannya.

Design History and the History of Design

An essential overview as well as a theoretical critique for all students of design history. Walker studies the intellectual discipline of Design History and the issues that confront scholars writing histories of design. Taking his approach from a range of related fields, he discusses the problems of defining design and writing history. He considers the different methods that leading scholars have used in the absence of a theoretical framework, and looks critically at a number of histories of design and architecture.

Meneroka Relasi Hukum, Negara, dan Budaya

  • Categories: Law

Begitulah hukum di Indonesia. Ibarat buku tabungan, kondisi hukum, negara, dan budaya di negeri ini seperti rekening dengan saldo yang pas-pasan. Tak seluruhnya gelap memang. Agak remang-remang, tetapi belumlah terang-benderang. Posisi Mahkamah Konstitusi, misalnya, segala putusan yang dikeluarkan lembaga ini kerap disanjung dan dibanggakan, lantaran ia menerobos kebuntuan hukum. Namun, oknumnya tergelincir pula pada korupsi. Akil Mochtar dan Patrialis Akbar adalah contoh yang “baik” dari dua pucuk pimpinan tertinggi lembaga itu yang bertindak busuk dan tak amanah. Lihatlah nasib buruh migran yang sering digadang-gadang sebagai pahlawan devisa. Negara belum sepenuhnya hadir memberikan pe...
