Engineers of Happy Land: Technology and Nationalism in a Colony - Princeton Studies in Culture / Power / History
Rudolf Mrazek
Based on close reading of historical documents - poetry as much as statistics - and focused on the conceptualization of technology, this book is an unconventional evocation of late colonial Netherlands East Indies (today Indonesia). It invents a way to talk about freedom, colonialism, nationalism, literature, revolution, and human nature.
