It is estimated that about one third of East Timor's population perished in the years of Indonesian military occupation that began in 1975. Today, the East Timorese struggle to rebuild their society after decades of violence and destruction. In this text, 14 contributions from international human rights activists, scholars, and journalists consider the cause of East Timorese independence and the potential for change. A sampling of topics includes Western media coverage of the conflict, a personal journey through East Timor, and a report by members of the Seeds of Hope group in Britain, who disarmed a Hawk aircraft before it was sold to Indonesia.

East Timor is one of the World's most infamous "trouble spots." Originally colonized by the Portuguese, it was brutally invaded and occupied by the Indonesian State military forces in 1975. Over the next year, according to the UN, about one third of the population died from massacres, starvation and disease. But recent events in Indonesia have given rise to expectations that there may be a fundamental shift in the State's position on East Timor. This book considers the potential for change against a backdrop of growing popular and political support for the Timorese cause. Addressing East Timor's recent emergence as an issue of global importance, it illustrates how local, grassroots, individual, organizational and campaign initiatives have contributed to this state of affairs, in the context of the increased emphasis which is being placed on ethics, international morality and human rights in contemporary international relations.
