Title: Chinese Identity in Post-Suharto Indonesia
Description: "This book sets out to unpack the complex meanings of "Chineseness" in post-1998 Indonesia, including the ways in which the policy of multiculturalism enabled such a "resurgence", the forces that shaped it and the possibilities for "resinicisation". The author examines how ethnic Chinese self-identify, and investigates how the pribumi "Other" has contributed to identifying the ethnic boundary in terms of "race" and class. A unique aspect of the study is its discussion of the complexities of cultural crossing, borrowing and mixing experience of Chinese-Indonesians through localisation and globalisation."--Jacket.
