First published in 1982, this text is widely regarded as a leading
general history of the country. This new and revised edition brings
the story of this fascinating country up to date, incorporating the
latest scholarship on every period of Malaysian history, including
recent research into pre-modern times. This text thus provides a
historical framework that helps explain the roots of the issues
dominating Malaysian life today, and the difficulties of creating a
multicultural state where resources are equitably shared and the
rights of all citizens are acknowledged. This book is a key text
for courses on Southeast Asian history and politics. Covering a
range of disciplinary subjects in the humanities and social
sciences, it is also useful for anyone interested in the assessment
of young, modernizing nations. New to this Edition: - A new chapter
provides insights into Malaysian history of the last 15 years,
including the growing influence of the internet and social media in
the political sphere - Greater attention is paid to the
strengthening of civil society movements that have arisen in light
of perceived government failures - Fresh analysis of Islam's
historical role in the Malay world and how it links with the
growing Islamization of Malaysia today
