Nusantara Ep. 3 – Japanese Occupation, Indonesian Revolution
About this episode
This episode explores the Japanese occupation of Indonesia and the subsequent revolution against Dutch colonial rule.
The third episode in a series on the history of Indonesia: a hinge in the world system where colonialism and revolution have decisively shaped the trajectory of global history. This installment picks up with the 1942 Japanese conquest of the Dutch East Indies and takes us through the Revolution, which Indonesian nationalist leaders launched against the Dutch in 1945 after Japan’s surrender to the Allies.
