The book is a collection of essays that were originally published in the Far Eastern Quarterly, a journal that focused on the politics, economics, and culture of the Far East. The essays in this book cover a wide range of topics, including the history of Indonesia, the role of religion in Indonesian culture, and the impact of colonialism on the country. The authors also examine the various cultural traditions that exist in Indonesia, such as dance, music, and literature.
