"The Indonesian Armed Forces used to be at the forefront of the countryʼs counterterrorism efforts. Following the countryʼs democratic transition in 1998, the Indonesian National Police took up the lead role. However, many analysts argue that the military is trying to regain its past dominance in counterterrorism. Regardless of this concern, the military does not have to be at the forefront of the countryʼs counterterrorism efforts to influence the overall policy and practices. The lingering militaryʼs historical legacies remains intact in Indonesiaʼs counterterrorism governance. This research highlights three dynamics: (1) The interagency rivalries; (2) the framing of issues; and, (3) the inherent militaryʼs ideological legacies. Despite various political changes that Indonesia underwent in the past few decades, thesedynamics are still relevant in discussing the contemporary counterterrorism governance and practices in Indonesia. This research will demonstrate the importance of historical understanding to analyse Indonesiaʼs counterterrorism governance."

"Wars have played a fundamental part in modern German history. Although infrequent, conflicts involving German states have usually been extensive and often catastrophic, constituting turning points for Europe as a whole. This volume is the first in a series of studies that explore how such conflicts were experienced by soldiers and civilians during wartime, and how they were subsequently imagined and understood during peacetime. Without such an understanding, it is difficult to make sense of the dramatic shifts characterizing the politics of Germany and Europe over the past two centuries. The studies argue that the ease, or reluctance, with which Germans went to war, and the far-reaching consequences of such wars on domestic politics, were related to soldiers and civilians attitudes to violence and death, as well as to long-term transformations in contemporaries conceptualization of conflict. Absolute War reassesses the meaning of military conflict for the millions of German subjects who were directly implicated in the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars. Based on a re-reading of contemporary diaries, letters, memoirs, official correspondence, press reports, pamphlets, treatises, poems, and plays, it refocuses attention on combat and conscription as the central components of new forms of mass warfare. It concentrates, in particular, on the impact of violence, killing, and death on soldiers and civilians experiences and subsequent memories of conflict. War has often been conceived of as an act of violence pushed to its utmost bounds, as Clausewitz put it, but the relationship between military conflicts and violent acts remains a problematic one."
