Globalization and National Autonomy
"Malaysia has long had an ambivalent relationship to globalization. A shining example of export-led growth and the positive role for foreign investment, the country's political leadership has also expressed skepticism about the prevailing international political and economic order. In this compelling collection, Nelson, Meerman and Rahman Embong bring together a group of Malaysian and foreign scholars to dissect the effects of globalization on Malaysian development over the long-run. They consider the full spectrum of issues from economic and social policy to new challenges from transnational Islam, and are unafraid of voicing skepticism where the effects of globalization are overblown. Malaysia is surprisingly understudied in comparative context; this volume remedies that, and provides an overview of a country undergoing important political change." – Stephan Haggard, Krause Professor, Graduate School of International Relations and Pacific Studies, University of California, San Diego

Writing a New Society
Writing a New Society is the first extended study of the novel in Malay and is a groundbreaking study of the relationship between social change and literary practice. The book traces the emergence of the genre from the 1920s and, drawing on 26 of Malaysia's best-known novels, argues that the form was developed as a vehicle for transforming Malay ideas about themselves and their society. Virginia Hooker focuses on the underlying anxiety about racial identity, which underpins much of Malay writing and examines how ethnic identity is constructed and expressed. In a radical break with the traditional notion of Malay society as being totally dependent on the Sultan, the book shows how the novelists centre their writings on descriptions of 'ordinary' Malays, and present the household as the primary site of change. Here the novels develop and describe a 'private' sphere where Malays who previously had no rights begin to exercise their initiative. The concept of social equality which inspires the novelists subverts many of the themes of modern Malay politics.
Singapore Malay/Muslim Community, 1819-2015
Singapore’s Malay (Muslim) community, constituting about 15 per cent of the total population and constitutionally enshrined as the indigenous people of Singapore, have had its fair share of progress and problems in the history of this country. While different aspects of the vicissitudes of life of the community have been written over the years, there has not been a singularly substantive published compendium specifically about the community – in the form of a Bibliography – available. This academic initiative fills this obvious literature gap. The scope and coverage of this Bibliography is manifestly comprehensive, encompassing the different sources of information (print or non-print) ...
Sastera MAHUA dalam Kritikan dan Pensejarahan (Penerbit USM)
Ilmu pengajian kesusasteraan Cina Malaysia (atau dikenali sebagai kesusasteraan Mahua) telah wujud sejak tahun 1960-an. Sepanjang tempoh setengah abad yang lalu, sarjana dari dalam dan luar negara telah menggembleng tenaga untuk menyelami hati sanubari komuniti Cina melalui khazanah dan warisan sasteranya. Kini, ia telah berkembang sebagai suatu komponen yang penting dalam keseluruhan ilmu pengajian Cina Malaysia. Buku ini menyorot proses pencarian jati diri kesusasteraan Mahua dengan memfokuskan wacana kritikan sastera yang pernah diketengahkan sepanjang perkembangan sejarah sasteranya. Tulisan yang sedemikian jarang-jarang ditemui dalam dunia ilmu berbahasa Melayu. Justeru, ia amat sesuai untuk dijadikan rujukan bagi mahasiswa-mahasiswi khususnya dan peminat sastera amnya. Kehadirannya juga adalah kunci untuk menyelami pemikiran dan minda penulis-intelektual Cina di Malaysia.
