Anthony Reid, one of the founding fathers of rediscovery of
Southeast Asian history in the last few decades, has been inspiring many
academicians in various fields of social sciences, and particularly history.
The attention which we are trying to take is related to his mentorship in Aceh history. The way of his study has become very encouraging for not only Acehnese, Indonesian, but also for some other researchers and nationalities such as Australian, Malaysian, Japanese, American, German, British etc. We may argue that Prof. Reid has a special attention to Aceh history.
He developed his relations with Acehnese academicians such as Isa Sulaiman and became a board member of Aceh Institute. Though Isa Sulaiman passed away in the tsunami 26th December, 2004, Reid has continued to be mentor of some young intellectuals who come together at Aceh Institute.
The importance of Reid in terms of Aceh his attempts to organize international Aceh conferences after MoU Helsinki, 15th August, 2005. Thus he established a board of international members to highlight an institutions establishment. Though he had more difficulties throughout the process he seems to have succeeded to have held three conferences titled International Center of Aceh Indian Ocean Studies (ICAIOS). The first in 2007, at Hermes Palace in Banda Aceh, the second (2009) and third (2011) at Unsyiah and IAIN Ar-Raniry.
Turkish
Güneydoğu Asya tarihi çalışmaları
konusunda önemli isimlerin başında gelen Prof. Dr. Anthony Reid Avustralya
kökenli bir akademisyen. Reid’i konu almamıza yol açan unsur nedir diye
sorulabilir? Reid, sadece genel itibarıyla Güneydoğu Asya tarihi değil, özelde
Açe tarihi konusunda köklü çalışmaları ile bir anlamda görece genç
akademisyenlere rehber olmuş bir şahsiyettir. Bu rehberliği sadece görev
yaptığı üniversite(ler) ile sınırlı olmamış, Açe’yi şu veya bu şekilde ilgi alanına
almış başta Açeli, Endonezyalı olmak üzere Avustralya, İngiltere, Almanya, ABD,
Japonya, Malezya gibi dünyanın hemen her yanından araştırmacılara,
akademisyenler onun eserleri ile Açe’ye nüfuz etme gereği duymuşlardır.
Bu bağlamda, Reid’in, Açe’ye dair özel bir ilgi
beslediğini söyleyebiliriz. 1990’lı yıllarda, Açe’nin önde gelen sosyologu İsa
Süleyman başta olmak üzere, o dönem Açeli genç akademisyenler ile birlikte Açe
Enstitüsü’nü kurmuş ve yönetim kurulu üyeliği yapmıştır. Bir anlamda kurumun ‘beyni’
hüviyetinde olan İsa Süleyman, 26 Aralık 2004 tarihinde gerçekleşen tsunamide
hayatını kaybetmesi kuruma kan kaybettirmiş olabilir. Ancak Açe Enstitüsü “mentor”
İsa Süleyman’ın yolundan gitmeye devam ediyor. Bu çerçevede Anthony Reid de
danışmanlık noktasında söz konusu kurumu yalnız bırakmıyor.
Reid’in Açe için önemli kılan bir diğer yönü,
elbette Helsinki Barış Anlaşması’nın imzalandığı 15 Ağustos 2005 tarihinden bugüne
kadar gerçekleştirilmesine öncülük ettiği Uluslararası Açe Konferansları dizisi
oldu. Bu konferanslar Uluslararası Açe ve Hint Okyanusu Konferansı (ICAIOS) olarak
yapılandı ve kurumsallaşma konusunda önemli girişimler gerçekleştirildi. İlki
2007, ikincisi 2009 üçüncüsü 2011’de Banda Açe’deki çeşitli mekanlarda
gerçekleştirilen bu konferanslar dizisi, özellikle Açe gerçeğini tarihi,
kültürel, sosyal, ekonomik, barış süreci vb. bağlamları ile çok geniş bir
katılımla ele alınmasında gözardı edilemeyecek bir birikimin oluşmasına neden
oldu. Reid, bu konferanslar dizisi başlangıcında oluşturduğu uluslararası
komite (ki içinde Türkiye’den de bir üye bulunuyor) ile bu oluşumun
kurumsallaşmasını planlıyordu. Ve ilgili ülkeler adına katılımcı üyelerin gayretleri
ile bu gerçekleştirilecekti. Ancak bu güne kadar sözde ülkeler adına yer alan
katılımcıların (şayet varsa) çabalarının olumlu sonuç doğurduğu söylenemez.
Örneğin, en son 2001 yılı Mayıs ayında yapılan üçüncü konferansın
eş-başkanlığını yürüten kıymetli dostumuz Dr. Saiful Mahdi, Reid’in kişisel
desteği olmasaydı, bu konferansın gerçekleştirilemeyeceğini dile getirmişti.
Burada amacım, söz konusu kurumsallaşmayı
detayına ele almak değil. Sadece Reid’in sadece Açe ve uluslararası akademi
dünyası için değil, Açe halkı için ne anlam ifade ettiğini ortaya koymak adına
kısada olsa bir değini yapmak istedim.
Uzun yıllar Singapur Ulusal Üniversitesi (NUS) Asya Araştırmaları Merkezi’nden görev yapan Reid, yaklaşık birbuçuk yıl once emekli oldu. Reid, emekliliğinin ardından doğduğu topraklara yani Avustralya’ya dönerek Avustralya Ulusal Üniversitesi’nde göreve başladı.
Aşağıda, benim de çeşitli çalışmalarımda kaynak
olarak kullandığım Reid’in eserlerini sizlerle paylaşmak istiyorum. Bugüne
kadar ulaştığım bu kaynaklara ilave olarak henüz “keşfedemediğim” eserleri
olabilir. Bu bağlamda, siz okuyucuların katkısına açığım. Reid’in çalışmalarını
en son yayınlanan eserden başlayarak yazıldığını hatırlatmak isterim.
