Examining some of the most critical issues in Malaysian politics
today, including human rights, law and democracy, gender and Islam,
this book explores the contours of the contemporary landscape of
Malaysian politics, focusing especially on politics among the
majority ethnic Malay community.
In particular, the book explains why changes in patterns of
political mobilization and the rhetoric of the dominant parties -
particularly the PAS and UMNO - have been so limited, despite the
overt and growing dissatisfaction shown by Malaysians with the
state of their political system and the ability of these parties to
represent their interests. It considers the recent history of
events and discourses within Malaysian society, and UMNO and PAS,
and goes on to analyze why important transitions have occurred in
society yet political parties have not adapted themselves to these
changes and remained reticent about instituting meaningful reforms
involving these matters.
