By Daniel S. Lev
Introduction by Benedict Anderson
Postscript by Sebastiaan Pompe and Ibrahim Assegaf

The compelling personal story of human rights lawyer Yap Thiam Hien (1913 - 1989) brings decades of modern Indonesian history to life. No Concessions is a penetrating analysis of the trajectory of the Chinese minority in Indonesia over close to a century and the remarkable making of a civic leader. Without abandoning his ethnic roots, Yap transcended them by becoming a courageous legal defender of civil and human rights of all oppressed Indonesians, including former communists and radical Muslims.
