The authors, representing the fields of anthropology, history, and political science, explore the ways in which traditional institutions, beliefs, values, and ethnic origins affect notions of power and rebellion, influence political party affiliations, and create new modes of cultural expression. Using two different but contemporary approaches, the authors show what can be learned about Indonesia through use of the Western concepts of \"culture\" and \"politics\". Professors Lev, Liddle, and Sartono illustrate how much can be gained from presenting Indonesian life in Western terms, while Professors Abdullah and Anderson contrast Indonesian and Western ideas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn an Afterword, Clifford Geertz reflects on the questions raised in these essays by discussing the tense relationships between Indonesian political institutions and the cultural framework in which they exist.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCLAIRE HOLT\u003c\/strong\u003e was, until her death in 1970, Senior Research Associate of the Modern Indonesia Project, Cornell University.
