Wilson shows how technologies of physical and spiritual warfare such as Pencak Silat have long played a prominent role in Indonesian political society. He demonstrates the importance of these technologies to the display and performance of power, and highlights the limitations of theories of secular modernity for understanding political forms in contemporary Indonesia. He offers a compelling argument for a revisionist account of models of power in Indonesia in which authority is understood as precarious and multiple, and the body is politically charged because of its potential for transformation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lee Wilson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004287736\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004287730\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/09\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 258\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.30w x 0.80d","brand":"Lee Wilson","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47579937243391,"sku":"9789004287730","price":103.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8393658a-55f5-4445-a6c4-f60486cdeb85.jpg?v=1763877695","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/martial-arts-and-the-body-lee-wilson-9789004287730","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
