Leslie Dwyer's 2004 article on the gendered violence of 1965-66 in Bali, framed by Ibu Ari, whose husband and brother were taken by PNI paramilitaries and who was sexually 'inspected'; argues women's silence is a culturally specific semiotics, not absence of memory. Fieldwork-based gender analysis.
Hirano Keiko's Japanese article (2005) on the historical formation of 'ibuism', arguing the supposedly priyayi tradition was produced under colonial rule through the conflict over the 1937 monogamous marriage bill. Context on gender ideology and marriage law; Gerwani marginal.

Japanese review (Ajia Keizai, July 2006) by Hattori Mina of Blackburn's Women and the State in Modern Indonesia, with post-1998 context, chapter summaries and evaluation; Gerwani appears only in notes. Context rather than evidence. (In Japanese.)
