Orde Baru sukses dalam memelintir sejarah kiri di Indonesia
untuk mencitrakannya sebagai ideologi iblis yang menjadi
ancaman terbesar bagi negara. Terbukti, jauh sesudah Orde
Baru jatuh, anti-komunisme tetap bercokol kuat dalam
masyarakat Indonesia. Buku ini menjelajahi kembali faktor-
faktor yang membentuk dan memelihara ideologi anti-komunis
itu, bukan saja sebagai hasil dari kampanye politik, melainkan
juga hasil dari agresi kebudayaan, terutama melalui
pembenaran atas kekerasan yang dialami oleh anggota dan
simpatisan komunis pada 1965-1966.

Buku ini menganalisis upaya pemerintah Orde Baru beserta
agen-agen kebudayaannya dalam memanfaatkan produk-
produk budaya untuk melegitimasi pembantaian 1965-1966.
Dengan bukti-bukti empiris ditunjukkan bahwa intervensi
langsung CIA kepada para penulis dan budayawan liberal
Indonesia untuk membentuk ideologi anti-komunisme
bukanlah isapan jempol belaka. Siapa saja penulis yang
terlibat? Bagaimana metodenya? Sebagai tambahan, buku ini
juga menganalisis perlawanan kelompok-kelompok
kebudayaan Indonesia kontemporer terhadap warisan anti-
komunisme Orde Baru itu.

The fall of Indonesia's New Order in 1998 was not followed by
the demise of anti-communist ideology. On the contrary anti-
communism remains strong within the community. This book
traces some of the determinant factors which contributed to
the establishment and the survival of anti-communism in
Indonesia. This book argues that the survival of anti-
communist ideology was not only a result of political
campaigning but also and more importantly cultural
aggression against communism, particularly through the
justification of the violence experienced by the alleged
communist members in 1965-1966.The justification of the
1965-1966 violence which was carried out by the New Order
government and its cultural agents through cultural products
fundamentally underpinned the viewpoint of communism as
the ultimate enemy of the nation. This book also argues that
the legitimisation of the 1965-1966 violence was no less
brutal than the act of violence itself.By focusing on the
discussion of how the New Order government and its cultural
agents utilised cultural products in legitimating violence
against communists, this book attempts to explore the ways
in which the 1965-1966 violence was normalised. Less

  1. Definitely believe that which you stated. Your favorite justification seemed to be on the internet the
    simplest thing to be aware of. I say to you,
    I definitely get irked while people consider worries that they just do
    not know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and defined out the whole thing without having side-effects ,
    people can take a signal. Will probably be back to get more.
    Thanks
