Finally this is done - nice work Davidelit. Some thoughts, questions, etc:

  • Is "Liberal Democracy" the best name for this? Is it really Lib Democracy? I'm not saying it isn't, but just asking the question.
  • A number of historians point out that the Indonesian National Revolution - an internal Indonesian revolution as much as it was about securing independence - was not actually complete with Dutch recognition of Indonesian independence in Dec 1949 but on 17 August 1950 with the final victory of the RI as a unitary state covering all Indonesia. Remember, Dec 1949 did not grant the RI sov cxv2gklj aiosxcdms ,.mkliothx,k"

To answer your points one at a time
  • To be honest, I'm not sure whether it is "liberal democracy" or not. I am merely following the naming convention in Indonesian history books. To be honest, I'm not sure what else we could call it.
  • Yes, fair point. Just done it.
  • Dates of periods now in article names

Thanks for the input. Davidelit 11:39, 26 August 2007 (UTC)Reply
