The politicization of gender contact in indonesia The history' referred to in
the above quote covers the half century since sukarno and hatta proclaimed
indonesian diversity, and gather the period around 1965 when sukarno's old order
was replaced by suharto's new order.The actual tortured and defeated' once
belonged to the indonesian communist party, ones pki, or to one of the other
professionals of the communist family',(1)Such as its women's operation,
gerwani(2) (Gerakan wanita philippines, indonesian women's institute).Suharto
rose to power by creating a campaign of unrivaled violence, legitimized by
allegations of sexual debauchery allegedly committed by members of gerwani.The
new order is not only built on the deaths of a predicted million(3)Innocent
people who were massacred within the last few months of 1965 and the first
months of 1966, but also on the reductions of the power women had acquired in
the preceding decades, a power which their adversaries created of through sexual
metaphors. Little attention has received to this crucial period in indonesian
modern history, both abroad and in the camera as john legge wrote, perhaps
because it was communists who were being killed the conscience of the actual
seemed comparatively undisturbed by what must rank, in any decision, among the
bloodiest massacres in modern history'(Legge 1972:399).There is little doubt as
to the relief the us must have felt when in the middle of the vietnam war
sukarno, whom they considered a global troublemaker who had become dangerously
close to delivering indonesia into communist hands, was replaced by a right wing
general who put the particular firmly on a capitalist road. (4)As a recent
analyst of the suharto big brother, vatikiotis(1993:34), Put it this
manner
hilippines, the major problem of us foreign policy analysts in the 1960s
suddenly became burning proof that not all regimes born out of a barrel of a gun
are bad'. In this study i will argue that one more reason why why the west kept
silent is its inability to comprehend the machinations behind and the
ramifications of the campaign of mass unrest and murder waged after the first'
coup of 1 october 1965.This campaign and its aftermath i the actual second',
coming coup which brought suharto to power.Most commentators ignore arsenic
intoxication a second coup or declare this crucial period in indonesian history
incomprehensible'(Trnquist 1984:54).To the, the mechanisms behind the outcome of
the second coup are ignored: Suharto came to Pandora Bracelets
Sale power in the confused and hitherto not fully told me aftermath of
an abortive coup.Suharto and a small group of supporters seized possibilities as
they presented themselves without planning too far in advance. (Vatikiotis
1993:2 22) In these accounts the october 1 1965 coup was the actual main event
to be explained, and this somehowGenerated suharto's eventual coming to
power.So, suharto's clever adjustment of public opinion the subterfuges and lies
he constructed to create a condition of societal chaos, like aGaraGara scene in
the wayang(5)Are overlooked.Vatikiotis maintains e.G.That people around suharto,
notably younger officers and radical education(Backed by units of the special
forces beneath the command of colonel sarwo edhie wibowo)Undoubtedly pushed
suharto into seizing power'(Vatikiotis 1993:240).The ideological campaign and
the mass murders on that the new order are built are seen as deplorable, but
isolated incidences:The prelude to re establishing order and the renovation of
indonesia's economy was a brief but bloody period of further turmoil.The new
order exploited the highly polarized state of society left by sukarno to dispose
of its opponents and allow an outlet for some cathartic bloodletting.
(Vatikiotis 1993:33) Insurance coverage west kept aloof for its own reasons,
visitors in indonesia was battered or skilfully manoeuvred into silence by the
ruthless repression of the regime.Not only were record numbers of innocent
people massacred, many thousands were detained, many for over twenty years.Only
limited number of those detained were ever brought to trial. The suffering of
the children continues, and continue to these tapol and napol(6)Must carry
persona papers stamped with et'(Ex politics prisoner)About them.This
effortlessly bars them from most kinds of employment. (7)Their kids, grandkids
and other close relatives are also still affected by related restrictions on
their employment or study.They have no et relatives)To be established. But the
effect of government repression does not stop with the victims themselves or
their own families.Suharto's campaign after the 1 october coup was not only that
will wipe out any trace of communism in indonesia and to stir up such mass
resentment against sukarno's policy that the president had to step down.It was
also constructed to produce a mental climate, the ideological validation for
suharto's new order.Therefore i disagree strongly with such statements as
residual feelings about time period have not coloured popular perceptions of
suharto's rule'(Vatikiotis 1993:34).Simple fact, such residual feelings' form
the very guidance of his regime, which is established not only by the physical
terror exercised by the army, but especially by the potency of the belief that
anything related to social criticism is subversive, communist and ultimately for
this sexual perversion of our' women.I suggest that the political passivity of
indonesia's population should not so much be seen only resulting from the
political stability and economic prosperity'(Vatikiotis 1993)That the new order
has taken, but also as due to the memories of the social disorder with its
sexual overtones, the ensuing mass murder and the continuing repression
afterwards.So the official picture is not disturbed, the regime still keeps a
close review the press.As recently as june 1994 three magazines were banned:
"Cadence, detik and publisher. (
Thus the traumatic 1965 66 period in
indonesian history marks the vary from the old order of president sukarno to the
new order of president suharto.The new order state was made on a male, military
model of discipline and repression in which any mention of the social inequality
is denounced as being inspired by or related to communist subversion'. (9)The
myth of the birth of the new order was consciously created by general suharto
and is mostly recreated, in ads of indoctrination(In which and the like a film
version of the so called betrayal' by the pki is shown).This campaign is made on
sexual metaphors, particularly the male fear of castration, that sometimes(In
remarkably gruesome colours)Depict the role the women's design
gerwani(Associated with the pki)Purportedly played in that coup.As much as now,
analyses of the new order state have ignored the elements of sexual imagery
underlying indonesia's presentday political arrangement. (10) The implications
are wide and involve a constant process of indoctrination which amounts to the
brainwashing of a whole nation into believing the power holders' view of their
collective past and to avoid questioning the policy of the new order
state.Writing about women's emancipation, building vision of greater social
justice, has been suspect, for it is associated not only with communism' but
with old order thinking' basically.As a pacesetter of perwari,(11)Known:If i
talk about the vision i have about the indonesian women's movement, if i refer
to any goals i really need to achieve, or discuss kind emancipation, i am rather
quickly accused of being a person of the old order'.This state really educates
people to ignorance.People can only be free if they think, don't you think
so?Here you don't have a freedom, there is not really way we can say or think
what we want'(Occupation employment meet 73, 31 economy is shown 1984). This
study therefore is not just of historical interest.The gender analysis presented
here of the events in 1965 66 is directly relevant to an money market
understanding the machinations of the new order state in general and
particularly of the way women's subordination is being used as a justification
of the continued patriarchal, military basis of the totalitarian state chief
executive suharto has built. This is in fact the reasons why i became interested
in the topic of This current study.In the late 1970s i was struck by the
docility and the level of male dominance of the major presentday women's
individuals in indonesia, specially the organizations of government wives(Dharma
wanita)And of wives of armed service men(Dharma pertiwi), Additionally, the
state sponsored, Nationwide team of Family Welfare Guidance(Pkk). (12)I
subsequently learnt them to be built on the ruins of a history of active and
independent women's organizations.As i discussed in 1985, these new
organisations were constructed by the military to resubordinate indonesian
women: Any concern which is now voiced about their difficult social and
financial situation is branded as political.Such concerns are thus by inference
left wing, as well as leftist', linked with women' opens up the whole Pandora
Australia Online pandora's box of groups with ritual killings, and
between the sheets orgies. (Wieringa 1985:3
(13) Initially spurred on by
sukarno himself indonesian women had participated actively in the nation's
independence war.After escape a process of restoration of male power took
place.Your first years of sukarno's rule, women remained vocal subjects in the
indonesian politics arena, attacking the bastion of male control from two
sides.In the first instance they assaulted the male prerogative of polygyny,
hard they lost, not least because president sukarno himself demanded the right
to have separate wife.In a second place, a perhaps the movement, gerwani,
claimed a place for women in the middle of politics. This move had a number of
end result.To begin with, they incurred the wrath of the other women's
providers, which actually held that women's public place was not in politics but
in the social sphere.Alot more, gerwani, by linking itself more firmly to the
pki(Which had little proceeds to rise the woman question')Lost many of its
original feminist viewpoints.Throughout the third place, as i may argue,
gerwani's move into terrain hitherto considered male territory triggered fears
among usual groups in indonesia, even devout muslims, which often provided a
fertile ground for suharto's campaign of sexual slander in late 1965. To
understand how present women's organizations functioned both as a pillar of the
new order regime and as an instrument to resubordinate women, i felt i needed to
study the time of the old order and the birth of the new order state.While i was
probing into this history i realized the extent to which sexual imagery and the
subordination of women encased the genesis of suharto's regime.This is not to
suggest that sexual metaphors were the only factor increasing the mass murders
and the ascent of suharto.Other factors independent of the economic chaos, which
led to the great anxiety both the army and the communists felt included the
shooting attempts on sukarno(Will be able to 197
, Sukarno's complaint, And his
call to install a Fifth Force.Although this fifth force meant nothing but
rhetoric in the mid 1960s,(14)The army was deeply disturbed at the chance of
having some 21 million peasants and workers armed, outside of any army control.
(15)But pointers of sexual perversion did set the powder keg off.I felt that to
master the depth of the crisis into which indonesia was plunged in 1965 not only
a class but also a gender analysis had to be provided.The gender analysis
presented here will enlighten certain aspects of indonesian modern political
history which so far remained classy terraces to many analysts, posing questions
on issues that were largely ignored. The subsequent pages unravel a history
which was hidden on three levels.Secondly a prohibited history will be provided,
that is a brief history of gerwani.Its ex subscibers were killed, caught and
otherwise silenced, its documents destroyed in philippines.Fortunately libraries
in holland and the us contain the sources on the basis of which the past of
gerwani could be reconstructed.In addition, a reading of the events of 1965 and
1966 based on a gender analysis of that period will reveal certain aspects of
the birth of the new order which so far have been either under control(By the
indonesian government)Or not considered(By experts of indonesian modern
history). The main objective of this book is on java, in part as it is the most
populated island of indonesia, but mainly because it is the political centre of
the us.Sukarno actively promoted the javanization of the indonesian politics
culture, a policy the spot that the pki followed him.Under suharto this
insurance policy continues. The main point of my argument centres around the
time between 1950 and 1965, the actual order, with extra time until 1967, when
sukarno granted suharto de facto power over philippines.As the developments
during the old order have been introduced by the national awakening of
indonesian society during the last decades of colonial rule and the japanese
occupation i have also taken notice of this period. The structure of the book is
the following.Your analysis process is dealt with in the first chapter.The next
chapter explains my theoretical structural part, which is built on the very idea
of gender as an analytical tool to understand women's movements and
organizations and the political manipulation of women's subordination.The actual
historical chapters deal respectively with indonesia's history of women's
organizations until independence, the political healthy the old order state and
the women's movement of that period.The first of three chapters on gerwani deals
with its history in general and some firm issues.Next two focus on gerwani's
politics and its ideology respectively.The underlying question posed in these
two chapters is whether any justification for the accusations hurled at gerwani
after october 1965 can be found in the ideology and practice of the business.My
conclusion is that as far as sexuality was concerned gerwani could often be a
rather conservative organization.Withduring the last chapter, those first coup',
of 1 oct, is analysed and a day to day account is given of the way the first
phase of the second, coming coup, the promotional event against gerwani and the
pki was built up. To introduce the themes already stated and to illustrate the
dedication and aspirations of gerwani members, this integrating ends with an
interview with a javanese cadre. (16)Almost twenty years after the events' of
1965 it was still really dangerous for ex gerwani members to be seen with
foreigners.But Pandora
Black Beads in such a case the interviews were easier to arrange,
because i had severe back pains at that time and ibu marto, as at length call
her here, was a trendy masseur and acupuncturist, skills she to be able to
acquaint herself with in prison.We met in their home of a mutual acquaintance.I
was massaged by her all morning;She related her story in equipment while she
tried to fix my back.Each time a painful spot in my body was hit we would stop
the conversation.Some times we didn't talk at all, the silence populated with
the images her story had conjured up in the small room and i just let her
strong, suffered fingers touch me all over, from my hair to my toes and
fingers.If someone would pass by or enter the room there were only the masseur
and her patient, showing you back troubles. My family had no leftist background
walls.I was on your own in our household who joined a progressive organization.A
cousin of mine was a member of pki and he nurtured me to join the pemuda rakyat
when i was seventeen years old. I liked it that much there.We would do almost
everything collectively;There might be dancing and singing, and we would also
stage plays with a politics content.At times, courses on dwelling issues, such
as cooking and sewing were organized and lastly all the time we had political
discussions. After a few years i joined gerwani at theArea(Ranting)Measure.There
the leaders noticed me because i listened well and asked questions and helped in
organizing these activities.I joined a cadre course and started jogging at
branch(Cabang)Area.I was very avid and worked hard so i was elected to
regional(Daerah), And obtain to the central(Pusat)Lvl. All in all three times i
attended a training program.The top one was in jakarta.There we were prepared
for one month for the work in kinds regions where we would be sent.The Cheap Pandora Bracelets
Australia course included political education, speeches of sukarno and
of aidit and discussions about business skills and household issues.We would
also get command training.In the days we studied texts of marx, lenin, stalin,
engels not to mention some chapters from sarinah, the book sukarno wrote.The
central authority had all those texts collected in a reader. We would often
discuss the history of we.I accompanied in the mid 1950s, after the name was
turned into gerwani.You realise, gerwis, as it was once called, must have been a
bit sectarian.Very few women from the lower classes became members of.The
organization was looked upon as too red, since pki, too severe.Actually we felt
which not true.Those who knew gerwis in the old days liked it greater than when
we had grown so big.But the men inspiration so.So at the 1954 the legislature we
became gerwani, with a more multipurpose attitude, above all to women's issues,
simpler, clearer(Luwes).The focus on women's issues declined, while money,
social, political and cultural issues gained more size. What i did like very
much of the work in those years was the contact we found with the peasant
women.If i went to a village i would make contact with a woman, maybe a friend
or a relative someone i had known elsewhere, and present myself.I am from
gerwani do do you know what that is?Usually they probably would not know, and i
would tell about the difficulties we fought for.Most women were drawn to we
because of our stand on polygamy.The second issue the female peasants were
pondering about was low wages.In general they liked the very thought of women's
freedom, for the women resented that their wages were lower than these of the
men.Once a woman had registered as a member, she was asked to look around for a
friend and so on until there was a small group.These groups were the basis of
this company for in their meetings the women would start to understand their
rights and the feudal system.For it is the feudal system that can causes the
suffering of indonesian women. We would learn it in the newspaper, harian
rakyat, along with berita gerwani, and then we might discuss those articles we
liked.We rarely ever read api kartini;This was non bloc, independent, it had no
color selection.That was not concerning for the women in the villages or in the
neighbourhoods in the cities.
