Highlights
Microphone republic: propaganda & indoctrination in guided democracy Indonesia / Sahul HM. Tanjong Malim, Malaysia: Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris, 2023.
Call no: JQ776 S131
“This book uncovers the truth behind Sukarno’s Guided Democracy in Indonesia, the cult of personality and the role of propaganda in maintaining his power. This comprehensive study delves into the mechanisms, contents, and processes of propaganda during a time of economic turmoil and territorial disputes. Moving beyond conventional wisdom that Sukarno’s reign was due to this balancing of various factions, this book argues that his influence was actually rooted in systematic propaganda and the mobilization of the people towards a common goal.” — Publisher.
