Martial Arts and the Body Politic in Indonesia
In Martial Arts and the Body Politic in Indonesia Lee Wilson offers an innovative study of nationalism and the Indonesian state through the ethnography of the martial art of Pencak Silat. Wilson shows how technologies of physical and spiritual warfare such as Pencak Silat have long played a prominent role in Indonesian political society. He demonstrates the importance of these technologies to the display and performance of power, and highlights the limitations of theories of secular modernity for understanding political forms in contemporary Indonesia. He offers a compelling argument for a revisionist account of models of power in Indonesia in which authority is understood as precarious and multiple, and the body is politically charged because of its potential for transformation.

Akademi Militer Yogya dalam Perjuangan Fisik 1945 sampai dengan 1949
Akademi Militer Yogyakarta tak bisa dilepaskan dari kisah sejarah revolusi nasional Indonesia. Hal itu disebabkan menulis sejarah Akademi Militer Yogyakarta hakikatnya menulis sejarah mikro, bagian dari sejarah nasional Indonesia. Dipandang sepintas dari kacamata sejarah nasional, nilainya bisa dianggap kurang penting. Namun, bila sejarahnya didalami lebih lanjut, di mana Akademi Militer Yogyakarta dibentuk pada masa Revolusi Nasional 1945, turut aktif terlibat dalam perjuangan menegakkan dan mempertahankan negara, serta 29 orang anggotanya tewas, kiranya pantas bila perjuangan mereka direkam sebagai bagian dari sejarah nasional Indonesia. Buku ini secara khusus membahas Akademi Militer Yogyakarta dari awal lahir, tumbuh, hingga perjuangan tokoh-tokohnya dalam perang kemerdekaan. Akademi ini pun turut serta dalam perjuangan revolusi nasional Indonesia dalam menghadapi agresi militer Belanda. Kisah mereka dalam perang gerilya menghadapi Agresi II Belanda tersaji dengan jelas dalam buku ini. Begitu pula dengan tugas dan pengalaman mereka sesudah perang kemerdekaan usai, juga tergambar jelas di buku ini.

Corruption and Law in Indonesia
Indonesia has transformed from one of South East Asia’s most repressive and centralised political systems to its most decentralised and democratic. Despite this, obstacles still remain that hinder Indonesia achieving the ‘rule of law’, and in particular, the country is consistently ranked as having one of the highest levels of corruption in the world. This book assesses Indonesia’s anti-corruption reforms over the past decade, focusing on the Anti-corruption Commission (KPK) and the Anti-corruption Court (ACC). The book discusses how both institutions have been largely successful since they began operating on 2004. Before 2008, the KPK and ACC largely focused on mid-senior level targ...
