The American journalist Vincent Bevins discovered that between 1945 and 1990, the USA secretly encouraged programs of mass murder of communists, dissidents, and unarmed civilians, and that it was only through monstrous repressions that they managed to skew the vector... of political development in their favor across several continents. The forgotten events in Indonesia, even by the local population, when politicians and the intelligence services of a foreign power deliberately trained their allies in state terror, are the key to understanding and a model of the process that allowed the USA to create an Americentric world. The book "The Jakarta Method" is a collection of stories of specific people and families, providing a documentary and compelling explanation of the means, the bloodshed, and the overwhelming falsification of historical memory of entire nations through which the now-accepted worldview triumphed. The bitter truth of Bevins is not that "Jakarta" happened and will never happen again, but that it was precisely "Jakarta" that shaped our world and is looming again: since America acted in this way, then everyone else is also allowed to do anything. The circle of violence has closed, and only the recognition of the true history can break it.
