Reviews

'A rich and detailed analysis of Indonesian politician cultures and their inscription and shaping in urban space. Yet, without its theoretical base, elaborating the politics of architecture and urban space, this important book could not have been written this way, perhaps it could not have been written at all.' Journal of Southeast Asian Studies

'Unquestionably the most provocative assessment of architecture and urban design in Indonesia since Independence.' - Planning Perspectives

'Kusno has the merit of linking more traditional kinds of architectural and urban studies to one of the more pressing social and political issues of the day ... This is an illuminating work.' - Journal of Urban History
