Research output: Contribution to specialist publicationBook/Film/Article review

Abstract

A review of The Jakarta Method by Vincent Bevins, which traces the history of the Cold War from the perspective of two often overlooked countries: Indonesia and Brazil.

After the election of Salvador Allende as president of Chile in 1970, mysterious messages started to appear in the capital of Santiago, painted on walls in wealthy neighborhoods and on postcards sent to the homes of left-wing government officials and party members. The messages declared, “Jakarta is coming.”
