"Muhamad Haripin's book, Civil-Military Relations in Indonesia: The Politics of Military Operations Other Than War, is a fresh take on military reform in the post-Soeharto era. It is a welcome addition to a rich canon of writing on civil-military relations in Indonesia [...] Overall, the book's greatest contribution is its scrutiny of the military's political behaviour in a new, albeit indirect, way, while at the same time informing the reader about three important areas of the armed forces' activities during the Yudhoyono era. [...] Thus, for its accessibility and data, the book is highly recommended for students and scholars of civil-military relations, Southeast Asian politics and military affairs more generally."
