Existing communication technologies were repurposed into mechanisms of struggle and used as weapons in anticolonial and anticapitalist resistance. In this process, communist ideas merged with ideals drawn from the Enlightenment to shape the emancipatory spirit of Indonesians. This red enlightenment motivated the production of revolutionary communication strategies of mobilization. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSubijanto's innovative work shows that the novel techniques of the pergerakan merah served to shift anticolonial mobilization in Indonesia from warfare to modern forms of communication.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Pergerakan Merah as an Event of Communication\u003cbr\u003e Means of Colonialism as Means of Struggle\u003cbr\u003e Red Enlightenment in the Roarin' Twenties\u003cbr\u003e Geography of Resistance\u003cbr\u003e Openbare Vergaderingen and Cultures of Resistance\u003cbr\u003e \"The War of Pens and Words\"\u003cbr\u003e In the Name of Public Peace and Order\u003cbr\u003e The Other Labor of Clandestine Sailors\u003cbr\u003e The Enlightenment Project is Necessary and Unending\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Southeast Asia Program Publications","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52670834147608,"sku":"9781501778667","price":25.45,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/communication-against-capital-red-enlightenment-at-the-dawn-of-indonesia-paperback-softback-9781501778667","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
