Reviews

'In the space opened by Said's Orientalism comes Philpott's Rethinking Indonesia. Demonstrating powerfully that the production of our knowledge about South East Asia and Indonesia imbibes the concerns of European identity, American social science, and a variety of historical and political confluences bearing upon the inquiry, Philpott radically re-orients conventional approaches to area studies and ensures that the idea of 'the region' will never be the same again. Given the upheavals in Indonesia, it is a timely intervention at the all-important intersection of postcolonial theory and politics.' - Professor David Campbell, Department of Politics, University of Newcastle
