About this book
In the mid-19th century, colonial powers were at the height of their exploitation, particularly in Indonesia, where the Dutch Trading Company wielded immense control. "Max Havelaar; or, the Coffee Auctions of the Dutch Trading Company" by Multatuli exposes the stark realities of this imperialism, highlighting the moral imperative against such injustices and the plight of the oppressed. Through its vivid narrative and compelling characters, the novel critiques the corrupt practices of colonial trade and the ethical dilemmas faced by those complicit in the system. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians, this groundbreaking work challenges readers to confront the consequences of colonialism and advocates for social justice, making it a timeless piece of literature.
