More about the book
The book offers a fresh analysis of East Timor's tumultuous period from 1974 to 1975, arguing against the prevailing narrative of nationalist fervor among the Timorese. Instead, it posits that the majority lacked comprehension of various foreign political ideologies, framing the events as a complex interplay between the capital's political culture and that of the broader nation. This perspective sheds new light on the dynamics of decolonization and challenges established views on the motivations driving the Timorese during this critical time.
