Sovereign Women in a Muslim Kingdom

The Islamic kingdom of Aceh was ruled by queens for half of the 17th century. Was female rule an aberration? Unnatural? A violation of nature, comparable to hens instead of roosters crowing at dawn? Indigenous texts and European sources offer different evaluations. Drawing on both sets of sources, this book shows that female rule was legitimised both by Islam and adat (indigenous customary laws), and provides original insights on the Sultanah's leadership, their relations with male elites, and their encounters with European envoys who visited their court. The book challenges received views on kingship in the Malay world and the response of indigenous polities to east-west encounters in Southeast Asia's Age of Commerce.

The Report

An archipelago that is home to some 242m people, Indonesia is among the world's most resource-rich emerging markets. The country has longstanding diplomatic ties with international players like the US and China, and plays a key role in both the regional and international economies. Although it is a leading palm oil and rubber producer, with significant coal and gold resources, the government is also attempting to encourage high-tech and knowledge-based sectors. The recovery from the global downturn saw some volatility in the financial system in early 2010 as a result of large inflows and outflows, however, the situation had stabilised by August. Massive infrastructure spending on development projects will not only result in ample opportunity for investment in the years to come, but is likewise expected to provide the basis for long-term economic expansion. Continued political stability is also a key asset, strengthening Indonesia's international standing and attracting foreign investors.

Aceh has become best known in our times for its twin disasters—the worst earthquake and tsunami of modern times in December 2004, and a long-running separatist conflict that rent Indonesia for most of its independent history. Although this book emerged from the process of recovery from those traumas, it turns the spotlight on a more positive and neglected claim Aceh has on our attention, as the Southeast Asian maritime state that most successfully and creatively maintained its independent place in the world until 1874. Like Burma, Siam and Vietnam, all better protected by geography, Aceh has its own story to tell of a unique culture struggling for survival through the European colonial era...
