East Timor: A Rough Passage to Independence

Dunn's third edition, originally published in 1983, tracks the tiny Southeast Asian country's hardscrabble journey to self-rule after years of occupation by Indonesia. East Timor's story, however, also is used to illustrate how small, poor states are treated by larger, more powerful ones; the true power of the United Nations; and more.
