This chapter introduces the volume the Indonesian Genocide of 1965: Causes, Dynamics and Legacies. McGregor, Melvin and Pohlman lay out the background to the 1965 violence and its general features including mass killings and arrests. They set up the new analyses offered throughout the volume by outlining key factors that contributed to the violence, providing an overview of the variety of actors and institutions that participated in or experienced the violence and reflecting on the ongoing effects of the violence, especially as regards intergenerational memory and efforts to achieve justice.
