| الملخص: | Over the past few years Indonesia’s political landscape has altered somewhat as a
result of the rise of new nationalist NGOs and mass movements, that have called upon
the Indonesian government to take a stronger stand when defending Indonesia’s
national identity and position in ASEAN. Observers of Indonesian politics have asked
if this marks the rise of hyper-nationalism in the country, and how this may affect
Indonesia’s relationship with its ASEAN neighbours. This paper looks at how
Indonesia’s school textbooks present the other countries and societies of ASEAN to
ordinary school children in Indonesia, and looks at how Indonesian identity is framed
in relation to the other countries around it. It argues that Indonesian school textbooks
do indeed give a rudimentary but objective and correct view of the other countries in
ASEAN, and that the rise of nationalism among some groups in Indonesia today
cannot be attributed to the education that millions of Indonesian students are given on
an annual basis. |
