Het Nederlandse koloniale verleden in Indonesië heeft grote invloed gehad op de literatuur. In De postkoloniale spiegel. De Nederlands-Indische letteren herlezen wordt in 26 hoofdstukken de 'canon' van de Nederlands-Indische literatuur voor het eerst systematisch vanuit een postkoloniaal perspectief gelezen, van Multatuli's Max Havelaar (1860) - de eerste Indische roman - tot en met Lichter dan ik (2019) van Dido Michielsen. Na een introductie waarin wordt ingegaan op het leven van de auteur en zijn of haar relatie met Nederlands-Indië of Indonesië, worden telkens een of meer romans kritisch geanalyseerd. Naast beroemde auteurs als Louis Couperus, E. du Perron en Marion Bloem komen ook minder bekende schrijvers aan de orde. Terugkerende aandachtspunten zijn de representatie van de ongelijke koloniale machtsverhoudingen en de Europese strategieën waarmee de 'Ander' werd gemarginaliseerd. De postkoloniale spiegel geeft een vernieuwend overzicht van meer dan 160 jaar Nederlands-Indische literatuurgeschiedenis.

This text seeks to answer these questions: Why are there more than 150 gamelans (Indonesian percussion ensembles) in North America, and why are more than half of them associated with American colleges and universities? How and why did gamelan ensembles spark the ethnomusicological imagination? What impact have these ensembles had on college music programs, their local communities, and transnational Indonesian performing arts scenes? How does a lifetime of teaching foreign college students shape the lives of non-American music teachers?

Music has the universal power to move individuals, peoples and societies. Music is one of the most important signifiers of cultural change. It is also most significant for youth movements and youth cultures. While Islam has a historically and traditionally rich culture of music, religious controversy on the topic of music is still ongoing. However, young Muslims in today's globalised world seek pop cultural tools such as music, and particularly hip hop music, as way of exploring and expressing their manifold identities, whilst challenging Islamophobia, stigma and racism on the one hand and traditional and religious challenges on the other hand. In this volume, following an international conference with the same title, scholars and young academics from a variety of disciplines seek to explore and highlight the phenomena surrounding the two, somewhat artificially separated, realms of music and religion. The contributions not only look into different genres of music, from Tunisian metal over German female hip hop to Egyptian folk, but take the reader on a journey from continent to countries to cities and rural areas and thus give space and time to a widely neglected area of research: that of Muslim popular culture and young Muslims.

Performing Power illuminates how colonial dominance in Indonesia was legitimized, maintained, negotiated, and contested through the everyday staging and public performance of power between the colonizer and colonized. Van der Meer's Performing Power explores what seemingly ordinary interactions reveal about the construction of national, racial, social, religious, and gender identities as well as the experience of modernity in colonial Indonesia. Through acts of everyday resistance, such as speaking a different language, withholding deference, and changing one's appearance and consumer behavior, a new generation of Indonesians contested the hegemonic colonial appropriation of local culture, and the racial and gender inequalities that it sustained. Over time these relationships of domination and subordination became inverted, and by the 20th century the Javanese used the tropes of Dutch colonial behavior to subvert the administrative hierarchy of the state.

"The Wajorese people were one of many groups that spread across Indonesian during the early modern era. In the wake of the Makassar War (1666-1669), the Dutch took control of Makassar on the Indonesian island of Sulawesi and used it to consolidate their power in the region. Because the Wajorese had sided with the war's losers, they were treated very harshly and many opted to emigrate. They scattered far and wide across the Southeast Asian archipelago, settling in eastern Kalimantan, western Sumatra, the Straits of Malacca, and the Sulawesian port city of Makassar. Wellen reconstructs the fascinating and little-told story of the Wajorese diaspora. Wajorese migrants exhibited remarkable versatility in adapting to local conditions in the areas where they settled. They perpetuated their own culture overseas while simultaneously using various assimilation strategies such as intermarriage to thrive in their adopted homelands. Relations between Wajorese migrants and their homeland intensified in the early 18th century when successive rulers in Wajoq deliberately sought to harness the growing military and commercial potential of the migrant communities. This effort culminated in the 1730's when the exiled La Maddukelleng, an Indonesian national hero, returned to Makassar from neighboring eastern Kalimantan and attempted to expel the Dutch from South Sulawesi. His campaign exemplifies the manner in which overseas Wajorese remained an essential part of Wajoq long after they left home. The Open Door's strong thematic organization allows readers with specific interests such as commercial law, family networks, diaspora, and comparative politics to quickly find fascinating and relevant information about this lesser-known Southeast Asian society"--
