Pembunuhan Massal 1965-1966: Vendetta dan Jingoisme
Tempo, 1 October 2012: Mass killings 1965-1966 - vendetta and jingoism
Tempo historiography essay (1 Oct 2012) on the 1965-66 mass killings, outlining three phases of writing about 1965 and proposing 'jingoism' and 'vendetta' (macho, anomie-driven local score-settling) as cultural explanations, with the label 'PKI lu' as a channel for hatred. Argues history is interpretation and need not be 'straightened'. Gerwani is not mentioned.
