Follows the army's involvement in Indonesian politics from 1945 to 1988. As the country moved from anti-imperialism through independence to revolution and then to stable economic growth, the army has become an integral part of the autohritarian ruling regime.This book is an authoritative account of the acquisition of power, the repression of opposition, unofficial funding, patronage, personal gain, corruption, and progress, largely achieved through the exploitation of the country's oil and gas reserves.
