520    An important addition to UQP’s internationally acclaimed 
       Peace & Conflict Studies seriesWest Papua is a secret 
       story. On the western half of the island of New Guinea, 
       hidden from the world, in a place occupied by the 
       Indonesian military since 1963, continues a remarkable 
       nonviolent struggle for national liberation. In Merdeka 
       and the Morning Star, academic Jason MacLeod gives an 
       insider’s view of the trajectory and dynamics of civil 
       resistance in West Papua. Here, the indigenous population 
       has staged protests, boycotts, strikes and other 
       nonviolent actions against repressive rule.This is the 
       first in-depth account of civilian-led insurrection in 
       West Papua, a movement that has transitioned from 
       guerrilla warfare to persistent nonviolent resistance. 
       MacLeod analyses several case studies, including tax 
       resistance that pre-dates Gandhi’s Salt March by two 
       decades, worker strikes at the world’s largest gold and 
       copper mine, daring attempts to escape Indonesian rule by 
       dugout canoe, and the collection of a petition in which 
       signing meant to risk being shot dead.Merdeka and the 
       Morning Star is a must-read for all those interested in 
       Indonesia, the Pacific, self-determination struggles and 
       nonviolent ways out of occupation.
