摘要:

Shortly after the failed PKI uprisings of 1926/27, Tan Malaka and his associates established the Partai Republik Indonesia (PARI). Although he acted as the party chairman and chief strategist, his involvement in the party operation was minimal as he lived in exile. Nevertheless, he loomed large in the eyes of both his followers and enemies. Not only was Tan Malaka a legendary guru for Indonesian revolutionaries, but also an enormous threat to colonial authorities across East and Southeast Asia. This chapter explores Tan Malaka's exile in China between 1927 and 1936 and how such experiences reflect his shifting relationship with Indonesia's ongoing struggles for independence, the international communist movement, and the surveillance and policing practices of multiple colonial states.
