Indonesianizing Marxism-Leninism: The Development and Consequences of Communist Polycentrism (1919-1966)
Indonesianizing Marxism-Leninism: Communist Polycentrism 1919-1966 (Silverman, 1967)
PhD dissertation in political science (Claremont, 1967) by Jerry Mark Silverman on national communism and polycentrism, 1919-1966, using the 'political community' framework with the PKI as case study (Section III, chs. 4-5 on PKI independence and ambivalence). It confines its Indonesian analysis to the period before 1 October 1965. Gerwani is not mentioned; the only women's-organisation reference is KOWANI naming Suharto 'Saviour of the Revolution' in 1966 (p. 159-160).

Analisis Indonesia dibatasi pada periode sebelum 1 Oktober 1965.

“Suharto's selection as 'Saviour of the Revolution' by the women's federation KOWANI indicated an attempt to transfer political legitimacy from Sukarno to the military (pp. 159-160).”
