Abstract

The purpose of this paper, initially, is to present the history of Indonesian economic thought. I believe, in the beginning, that it will not be difficult to find sources of this materials from library and from web. In order to make this target easy and to know the outline of the paper, first I conceive ‘preliminary study’ by exploring Ajit Dasguta (1993) “A History of Indian Economic Thought; Robin Neill (1991) “A History of Canadian Economic Thought,”and Tessa Morris (1989) “A History of Japanese Economic Thought.” The next step is collecting the sources of history of Indonesian economic thought. This is really become a serious problem. I cannot find the sources, neither books nor articles, of this areas. Many books discuss about indigenous Indonesian economics from anthropology point of view. But they describe this issue partially. For example, Clifford Geertz (1963) “Peddlers and Princes” discuss the rural social structure and economic organization in Modjokuto (Java) and Tabanan (Bali). James Siegel (1969) “The Rope of God” discuss the socio-economics condition of Aceh’s people. Robert Jay (1969) “Javanese Villagers” discuss social relation in rural Modjokuto (Java). Robert W. Hefner (1990) “The Political Economy of Mountain Java” discuss the socio-economic condition of the Tengger Highlands (Java). Other books discuss the history of Indonesia purely from history point of view. This condition of difficulties to collect the sources make particular challenge to write the paper. Since it is hard to find sources of Indonesian history of economics thought, I decide to discuss of Indonesian history from economic point of view, especially in the period of Dutch colonialism. I hope it will be the turning point to achieve our initial purpose as mention above.
