Abstract :

This essay focuses on the literature on the circumstances surrounding the fall of Indonesian president Suharto in 1998. it is argued here that the analysis on the chain of events were generally fact based, while comprehensive analysis on how and why the country will survive such turbulent situations is lacking. This focus on event is clearly reflected in how the authors elaborate on the day-to-day event around the period of Suharto’s resignation. Nonetheless, although analytical works are lacking, the trend suggest that there will be much more emphasis on the subsequent developments. .
