Abstract

ABSTRACT During the New Order period (1966–1998), Chinese Indonesians or Tionghoa were systematically excluded from Indonesian accounts of history. After the fall of the regime, there was a resurgence of writing by and about Chinese Indonesians. One element of this resurgence was the translation into Indonesian of books by Western writers on the topic, but more important has been the emergence of new publications in Indonesian in which Sino-Indonesians are given a central position in major events or phenomena, such as the introduction of Islam to the Indonesian archipelago. The New Order’s exclusion of Sino-Indonesians has been transformed into an inclusive narrative. Significantly, Indonesians who are not of Chinese background have played an important role in bringing about this historical resurgence. These changes represent a major shift in the way the Indonesian nation is being defined.

将汉语抹去并重新载入印尼历史

摘要：在新秩序时期（1966–1998），印尼华人或琼霍亚人被系统地排除在印尼历史记录之外。政权倒台后，印尼华人的写作和关于他们的写作重新兴起。这种复兴的一个因素是西方作家将有关该主题的书籍翻译成印尼语，但更重要的是印尼语新出版物的出现，在这些出版物中，中印尼人在重大事件或现象中处于中心地位，例如将伊斯兰教引入印尼群岛。新秩序对中印尼人的排斥已经转变为一种包容性的叙事。值得注意的是，非中国背景的印尼人在促成这一历史复兴中发挥了重要作用。这些变化代表着印尼国家定义方式的重大转变。

期刊介绍： In the twenty-first century ethnic issues have assumed importance in many parts of the world. Until recently, questions of Asian ethnicity and identity have been treated in a balkanized fashion, with anthropologists, economists, historians, political scientists, sociologists and others publishing their studies in single-discipline journals. Asian Ethnicity provides a cross-disciplinary, international venue for the publication of well-researched articles about ethnic groups and ethnic relations in the half of the world where questions of ethnicity now loom largest. Asian Ethnicity covers any time period, although the greatest focus is expected to be on the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.
