About this ebook:
De Indische cultuur in Nederland wordt sinds jaren gezien als een kleurrijke, gezellige en smakelijke verrijking van het nationale culturele palet. De Indische nostalgie is inmiddels een gevleugeld begrip geworden, de Pasar Malam Besar een nationaal evenement en de Indische eetcultuur vond algemene en gretige ingang. De vraag naar de betekenis van de Indische cultuur als postkoloniaal verschijnsel werd lange tijd niet gesteld.Ons Indisch erfgoed beschrijft de wordingsgeschiedenis van de Indische cultuur als uitdrukking van de stille naoorlogse worsteling met het verlies van Nederlands-Indië en de komst van ruim 300 000 postkoloniale migranten. Aan die worsteling namen en nemen _ naast de overheid _ vele Indische én gewone Nederlanders deel, van jong tot oud, tot op de dag van vandaag. Wie bepaalt eigenlijk wat de Indische identiteit is? Welk beeld van 'Indië' mag blijven bestaan en wat moet worden vergeten? Hoe ongevaarlijk is de Indische cultuur?Deze en andere vragen komen aan bod in Ons Indisch erfgoed.Lizzy van Leeuwen is bestuurskundige en cultureel antropoloog en werkzaam als publicist. Ons Indisch erfgoed is het eerste deel in de serie Postkoloniale geschiedenis in Nederland, de neerslag van het KNAW/NWO-onderzoeksproject 'Bringing History Home' naar de identiteitspolitiek van postkoloniale migranten.RecensieEen goed gedocumenteerde verhandeling over de postkoloniale geschiedenis in Nederland. Lizzy van Leeuwen, een Indische cultureel antropologe en bestuurskundige, belicht de Indische identiteit en cultuur in deze periode. Na een kort historisch overzicht concentreert ze zich op de ontwikkeling van indo's en totoks in de Nederlandse samenleving. De Nederlandse samenleving heeft nog steeds een stereotiep en geromantiseerd beeld van de Indische cultuur: de Indische keuken, de gastvrijheid, de exotische Indische meisjes en indorock. Andere invalshoeken die hiervan afwijken, worden in de samenleving, zo lijkt het, niet geaccepteerd. Deze houding staat een postkoloniaal debat in de weg. Dit debat wordt en werd in andere ex-koloniale mogendheden zoals Engeland en Frankrijk wel gevoerd. Volgens de schrijfster zijn de indo's door de Nederlandse regering behandeld als tweederangs burgers. Het is jammer dat in de tekst hinderlijke onvolkomenheden zijn geslopen. Het boek is rijk voorzien van noten, een literatuurlijst en register; daarnaast enkele zwart-witfoto's.E. MutterOns Indisch Erfgoed: Zestig Jaar Strijd om Cultuur en Identiteit (Our Indies Heritage: Sixty Years of Struggle for Culture and Identity), is another triumph in much the same manner. It analyses the first great post-colonial migration of ‘ex-colonials’ to an imperial step-motherland in Atlantic Europe, and the politico-cultural consequences over the next 60 years. The waves started in 1946 when largely totok or ‘pure Dutch’ bureaucrats, businessmen and soldiers, savagely interned by the occupying Japanese, were repatriated to Holland with their families. After four years of brutal warfare, the Netherlands was forced to transfer legal sovereignty to the Federal Republic of Indonesia. Many Indos, especially those with ‘Dutch’ legal status, who had fought with the Dutch against Indonesian nationalists, imagined the writing on the wall, and started to migrate to the Netherlands, though some went on to warmer (in every sense of the word) climates in California, Australia and Brazil. Late in 1957, in reprisal for The Hague’s stubborn refusal to negotiate West Papua’s joining the infant Republic, Sukarno ordered the nationalisation of all Dutch enterprises in Indonesia, and the expulsion of all those with Dutch nationality.Ben Anderson

I find myself somewhat conflicted. It verged on repetitive in the second act. A more concise edit would have served it well. Perhaps more aligned with a different audience's tastes.
