A Bibliography of East Timor
An island in the Indonesian Archipelago, Timor is the largest and easternmost of the Lesser Sundas, with the Banda Sea of the Pacific on its northern shores and the Timor Sea of the Indian Ocean on its southern shores. The eastern half of the island was known as Portuguese Timor until the 1975 Indonesian invasion and illegal incorporation. From 1975 until 1999 East Timorese waged a war against Indonesian occupation forces that finally resulted in a United Nations-supervised referendum in 1999. After the overwhelming vote for independence Indonesian-trained militia and Indonesian armed forces outraged the international community by unleashed a campaign of terror and destruction throughout East Timor lasting several months. East Timor survived this carnage to become officially independent on May 20, 2002. The most commonly used language in East Timor is Tetum. Material on East Timor is found in Portuguese, Dutch, French, Indonesia, Tetum, and English. Kevin Sherlock's 1980 A Bibliography of Timor is the most complete bibliography in several languages. The bulk of the historical writing is in Portuguese. Much of the contemporary writing is in English. This bibliography is limited to materials in English. Many of these materials come from Australia; until recently East Timor was ignored by scholars and the popular media in North America. One of the very few balanced accounts of the Indonesian invasion in the academic journals of the U.S.A. was my 1976 article on "The Indonesia Takeover of East Timor," which made the (fortunately!) inaccurate prediction, "It seems doubtful that the world will ever again have an opportunity to closely examine the struggles and sufferings of the Timorese."
Much of the material on East Timor would come under the heading of propaganda, the most blatant being produced in Indonesia, e.g., the several items I've list under Staff that are published in Jakarta or in formerly Indonesian occupied East Timor (i.e., Dili, the capital of East Timor). Also, Sabana Kartasasmita's 1998 East Timor is a laughable defense of Indonesia's action in East Timor from the holder of a Ph.D. in economics and the occupant of several high positions in the Indonesian government. Pro-Indonesian drivel is not necessarily limited to Indonesians; see, e.g., Bilveer Singh's 1996 East Timor, Indonesia, and the World. In addition, the recent situation of East Timor has led to the publication of a large number of pamphlets. I have included only a select few of the most significant ones. Internet sites are notoriously ephemeral, and I am, therefore, not including a list of them. At any rate a current Internet search will reveal the ones that are still available. There are two particularly helpful Internet sites, however, that seem rather permanent. These are http://www.easttimor.com, which has particularly good links, and http://www.etan.org, which is the site of the East Timor Action Network in the U.S.A.
