Indonesia in exile: The Indonesian Left abroad during the late Cold War

自1998年推翻苏哈托总统以来，印尼人一直在努力理清动荡的政治历史，并重新评估长期存在的假设，包括关于共产主义的假设。在数十年的政治镇压之后，有迹象表明，某种新的政治形式将会出现，长期受到压制的左翼可能会在其中发挥作用，澳大利亚需要理解这一点。由于散居海外的流亡社区是国家间紧张关系的潜在来源，并可能刺激澳大利亚和印度尼西亚的关系，澳大利亚必须了解这些社区在维持和传播另类政治愿景以及挑战国家方面可能发挥的作用。[97][晓雨-0920交稿]

Since ousting President Suharto in 1998 Indonesians have been striving to make sense of a turbulent political past and re-evaluating long-held assumptions, including about communism. After decades of political suppression, there are signs some new form of polity will emerge in which a long-suppressed Left might play a part and which Australia needs to understand. Since diasporic, exilic communities are a potential source of inter-state tension, and possible irritant in Australian-Indonesian relations, it is important for Australia to understand the role such communities may play in sustaining and transmitting alternative political visions, and in challenging the state.
