Routledge Handbook on Islam in Asia
The Routledge Handbook on Islam in Asia offers both new and established scholarship on Muslim societies and religious practices across Asia, from a variety of interdisciplinary angles, with chapters covering South, Central, East and Southeast Asia, as well as Africa–Asia connections. Presenting work grounded in archival, literary, and ethnographic inquiry, contributors to this handbook lend their expertise to paint a picture of Islam as deeply connected to and influenced by Asia, often by-passing or reversing relationships of power and authority that have placed ‘Arab’ Islam in a hierarchically superior position vis-à-vis Asia.

Designing for Consensus
This book examines the concept of the ASEAN electricity grid: its applications elsewhere in the world, its rudimentary beginnings in Southeast Asia, and the many factors affecting its feasibility in the ASEAN region. It also seeks to answer the question: Is it possible to design the electricity trading relationhip for a politically feasible ASEAN grid? Can technology be adjusted to suit the political maturity of the regional grouping?
Sarawak, Borneo, in 1941
In 1941, perturbed by the worldwide advance of war, the Chief Secretary, senior executive of the Sarawak government in Kuching, Malaysia collated a dozen strategically important files under the title, ‘Payments to certain Brunei Pengirans, or their descendants’. He shipped these to a trusted colleague in Limbang, at the farthest extremity of Sarawak territory. A few months later, Japanese forces invaded. The Chief Secretary’s action preserved these files, and in 2008 they were rediscovered, still intact and suffering only from the effects of exposure to the tropical environment. Transcribed, together with associated documents, this book explains why these files confirmed the century-long rule of the three “white Rajahs”, of Sarawak ― James, Charles and Vyner Brooke ― and describes the relationships of these Rajahs with their subjects and with neighbouring States, notably the sovereign power, Brunei Darussalam, and the British colonies of the Straits Settlements.
