Laughing At Leviathan - Sovereignty and Audience in West Papua

Zusammenfassung For West Papua and its people, the promise of sovereignty has never been realized, despite a long struggle for independence from Indonesia. The author examines this struggle through a series of essays that drive at the core meaning of sovereignty itself - how it is fueled, formed, and even thwarted by pivotal but often overlooked players.
