The Acehnese, a Muslim people of Sumatra, fought Dutch attempts to colonize
them for forty years. After its "pacification," Acehnese society evolved
peacefully, yet nonetheless the Acehnese participated fully in the
Indonesian revolution and in a rebellion against the Indonesian central
government not long after. Based on field work done in the early 1960s,
James Siegel's The Rope of God, traces the evolution in Islam, in the
economy, and in the structure of the family to show how it was that Aceh
mobilized itself as a society from the time of the colonial war to the
emergence of the republic. At a time when this Indonesian society is once
again in movement, this influential study has gained a certain new relevance.
To bridge this span of time since its initial publication in 1969, Siegel
has added two additional chapters to his original volume: one a description
of political elements today and the other a previously published piece on
Acehnese domestic politics.
Important when it first appeared, The Rope of God continues to be of
enduring importance today and will be warmly welcomed back into print.
James Siegel is Professor of Anthropology and Asian Studies, Cornell
University and is the author of New Criminal Type in Jakarta: A
Counter-Revolution Today, among other books.
