Editor's Note:
Jan Breman membuka salah satu halaman hitam sejarah Belanda dan memperlihatkan bagaimana VOC dan pemerintah yang berkuasa, telah meninggalkan guratan dalam pada sistem pertanian di Jawa. Dalam Keuntungan Kolonial dari Kerja Paksa: Sistem Priangan Tanam Paksa di Jawa 1720-1870, ia membahas pemberlakuan dan peluasan budidaya kopi di dataran tinggi Jawa Barat di bawah pemerintahan kolonial.Ia memperlihatkan bagaimana para penguasa baru itu memanfaatkan kalangan bangsawan pribumi sebagai suatu bentuk pemerintahan yang murah dalam menjebloskan masyarakat petani ke dalam kekangan kerja paksa. Dan langkah itu berhasil, seperti ditulis oleh Multatuli. Dalam tulisan ini, Breman mengemukakan pelandasan yang nyata terhadap gugatan yang dilontarkan Multatuli satu setengah abad yang lalu. Bagaimana bisa terjadi bahwa cara kerja dan dampak sistem Priangan begitu lama di luar pengamatan? Nada pembenaran diri akan pemakaian tenaga kerja paksa yang menjadi keunggulan pemerintah kolonial, merupakan suatu unsur yang mencolok dalam pemertahanan politik yang dijalankan.Kajian ini dapat dianggap sebagai pembaharuan penulisan sejarah dan sebagai suatu uraian ilmu sosial dari karya Multatuli. Di dalam buku ini ditemukan juga beberapa ilustrasi dengan gambar yang langka dari masa kolonial awal.
