American journalist Vincent Bevins discovered that between 1945 and 1990 the United States secretly encouraged programs of mass murder of communists, dissidents and unarmed civilians and that only through horrendous repression was it able to adjust the vector of political development in its favor on several continents at once. Forgotten even by the local population, the events in Indonesia, when politicians and intelligence agencies 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 United States to win the Cold War and create an American-centric world. Full of stories of specific people and specific families, the book "Method" “Jakarta” is a documentary and convincing explanation of by what means, by what blood and with the help of what stunning falsification of the historical memory of entire peoples the now generally accepted picture of the world prevailed. Bevins’ bitter truth is not that “Jakarta” happened and will never happen again , but the fact is that it was “Jakarta” that shaped our world and is coming again: since America acted in a similar way, then everything else is allowed too. The circle of violence has closed, and only awareness of true history can break it.

For those who are interested not only in the history of the winners of the twentieth century, but also in the bitter experience of the losers - in those areas that for some reason are considered secondary.
