This article analyzes the worldview of the memoir of H.G. Nahuys van Burgst, Resident of Surakarta, entitled Verzameling van officiele Rapporten, betreffende den Oorlog op Java in de Jarren 1825-1830, as a polemic with H.J.J.L. Ridder de Stuer. His memoirs represent a typical Dutch government worldview based more on colonial interests and power tendencies. The colonial interests made the colonial government have a tendency and take a certain position from the start against Islam and the cultural and Islamic characteristic resistance movements launched by Diponegoro and Kyai Modjo. The descriptive analysis of the memoirs about the Javanese War which is presented chronologically makes it easy for us to reveal how war figures put Islam as the motivation for war, the spirit, the basis for thinking, the strengthening of the support network, the basis for regulation, and the justification for starting or ending the war. Meanwhile, the colonial government saw Islam as being used as a foster for the character’s socio-vertical mobility ambitions, as an identity, propaganda material, and procedures in oath-taking ceremonies.

The renewal of Bungaya Agreement in 1984 was one of a guideline in managing the relationship between the Dutch East Indies and several kingdoms in South Sulawesi. This study not only aimed to describe the renewal of the Bungaya Agreement based on the manuscript of Addatuang Sidenreng, but also explained the background and impacts of the agreement toward the the kingdoms being in South Sulawesi. The method used was a qualitative research method in term of descriptive analysis through history and filology approaches. The study result showed that the renewal of Bungaya Agreement not only facilitated the government of the Dutch East Indies in restoring the position and power of its colonial government in South Sulawesi, but also gave it opportunity to interfere the internal affairs of the kingdoms in South Sulawesi. Therefore, the renewal of Bungaya Agreement was very beneficial for the Dutch government and very detrimental for the kingdoms in South Sulawesi, so it became the cause of conflicts between the two parties in its establishment.

Plantation economic growth has the impact on development in various aspects. One of them is shipping and trade development. Before the existence of plantations in East Sumatera, shipping and trade in Medan were centered at Labuhan Deli as a river-port. Since big ships could not sail on the river, it was considered not effective and efficient anymore. Therefore, the Dutch   Colonial Government planned to build a seaport located on the sea coast so that loading and unloading would be easy to do, and they selected Belawan to be the new seaport. The research problems were how about the existence of Labuhan Deli by the policy of the Dutch Government on moving the seaport to Belawan and what was their reason for it, and how about shipping and trade business in Belawan. This research used archives and other writing materials from the period of the Dutch Colonial Government in Medan and used historical method. The objective of the research was to find out whether plantation economic condition could change various aspects, including shipping and trade at the time. The result of this research was expected to become the reference for the writing on advanced maritime history, particularly on seaport.

This study seeks to interrogate the motives, challenges, complexities and contribution of the transportation infrastructure to the socio-economic development of the colonial government of Nigeria between 1900 and 1960. Although a lot of literature exists on the contribution of transportation to the Nigerian colonial economy, yet, there has been no serious attempt to investigate the resistance to British demands which hurt the colonizer and of African initiatives to improve their socio-economic conditions through the transportation infrastructure. The impression is often created of a completely submissive colonial population simply complying with the colonial government instructions and demands for their produce, yet findings revealed that there were challenges and obstacles to the smooth-running of a result-oriented economic policy. The basic objective of this paper is to empirically articulate the extent to which the colonial transportation infrastructure was able to fulfill the motives/impact of these efforts to the socio-economic development and well-being of Nigerians at this period. Another objective of the work is to throw more light on the extent to which these infrastructures (transport) were able to promote or negate the interests and development of the colonial government of Nigeria. The study utilized both primary and secondary data and employed the simple descriptive analysis of the materials through the historical methodology. The work adopted the Solow Neo-classical Growth theory which attempted to measure the extent to which labor, capital and technology were able to influence the economic growth of Nigeria. On the whole, the work concluded that despite the claims of the British government of achieving the ‘dual mandate’ policy of ascertaining that commercial interests of both the home country Britain and the colony were guaranteed, yet to a greater extent the colonial government benefitted more to the disadvantage of the colony whose development was only marginal during this period.

This paper aims to examine the policy of the Dutch colonial government towards Islam in Indonesia, especially during the period of 1945-49 in which the lndonesians struggled for their independence from the Dutch. However, the attitudes of the Dutch East Indian Company towards the Indonesian Muslims in the 17th and 18th centuries and that of the Dutch colonial gov­ernment in later periods were also included in order to indicate the changes in policy. The government's policy towards Islam during the indepen­dence period was determined largely by its immediate aim to gain the support of the Muslim people for the reestablishment of the Dutch rule in fndonesia after the war. Therefore, the Dutch authorities in Jakarta tried to show a tolerant attitude towards the Muslim leaders, especially the ulama who had great influence upon the people, and they were inclined to give them more help in religious, social and educational fields, but without endangering the principle of the separation of religion and politics. In this respect, the attempts to establish close con­tact with the Muslim leaders and their organizations as well as the stimulation of ulama conferences and establishment of regional Islamic councils were discussed in detail. Based largely on the archival materials, the paper concludes that the Dutch needed to pursue a liberal policy after 1945 in contrast to a neu­tral one in previous times.

Islam spreads in Indonesia without violence, and preachers who came after them followed the path of their predecessors, calling peacefully. But the situation changed after the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. Indonesia's religious life has undergone a total change due to pressure from the Dutch government, keeping away Muslims from Arabic, politics and Islamic law. This research aims to find a suitable way how to prepare preachers and restores the best path in the call, and the Islamic call to the previous era of glory. Through the methods of descriptive analysis, and documentary study, I found that there is are phenomena of violence in the call that committed by a small group of preachers, that they do not have a little patience and use of force, which are contrary to the nature of the people of Islam in Indonesia. The teaching of Islam is far from the violent. It has been shown that the preachers of Indonesia need a greater range of knowledge and skills about cultures, religious and historical culture, linguistic, human nature, practcal aspect and real situation.

ABSTRACT The International Food Safety Authorities Network (INFOSAN) was launched in 2004 by the World Health Organization (WHO) in collaboration with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). Since then, this global network has aimed to halt the international spread of contaminated food, prevent foodborne disease outbreaks, and strengthen food safety systems globally to reduce the burden of foodborne illness. However, INFOSAN has never been examined as a functional community of practice and its value, according to members, has not been determined in a systematic or rigorous way. A three-phased, mixed-method study has explored the experiences of INFOSAN members with respect to their participation in collaborative network activities to improve global food safety and prevent foodborne illness. Results from phase 1 of this study are discussed here and relate to how the INFOSAN Community Website (ICW) is being used to support network activities. Overall, the descriptive analysis indicates that a small number of active INFOSAN members contribute most of information shared on the ICW. A much larger group of members participates passively, logging on to the site, reading content, but not sharing new information. Four hundred eighty-two food safety incidents are documented on the ICW, the majority of which have been caused by bacterial contamination, most commonly Salmonella enterica. The results from phase 1 of this study provide objective, foundational information about engagement of all members and were used to propose new ways to improve the ICW. Integration of these results with results from phases 2 and 3 will help determine whether and how members' reported attitudes and experiences reflect their online behaviors. This information can be used by the INFOSAN Secretariat to increase active participation and improve international information exchange to mitigate the impact of food safety emergencies and prevent foodborne diseases globally.

During the colonial period of Indonesia the Dutch government was an important source of knowledge which was disseminated through the production of books, such as textbooks and other printed material. In response to the establishment of many new commercial printers and publishers, the colonial government, in 1917, set up its own publishing company, Balai Pustaka, which also published attractive and popular books. This new publishing house intentionally and unintentionally served several goals at a time that was characterized by the rise of young Indonesian intellectuals who were part of new political movements formed in the first decades of the 20th century.
