Sabah from the Ground

Sabah's 2020 election was Malaysia's pandemic election. While attention has centred on the impact the election had on the increase of COVID-19, this collection brings together scholars, journalists and social scientists who were on the ground on Sabah to analyse what happened, why, and the broader implications of the outcome for Sabah and Malaysian politics. The book is the first in-depth study of a Sabah election. It is multidisciplinary, with authors from different perspectives, and the majority of the authors are from Sabah. Traditional explanations prioritize the federal-state relationship in shaping Sabah politics. This collection challenges this paradigm, suggesting that politics in Sabah should be better understood as a reflection of conditions within Sabah—as Sabahans struggle to navigate and survive on Malaysia's periphery.

Hubungan Malaysia Jepun: Diplomasi dan Pendidikan (Penerbit UM)

Tema utama buku ini ialah mengenai hubungan Malaysia-Jepun dalam tempoh 1957-1990-an dalam bidang diplomasi, ekonomi dan pendidikan. Dua aspek yang diberi perhatian oleh penulis ialah hubungan diplomasi dan kerjasama dalam bidang pendidikan dan latihan. Hubungan diplomasi yang dimaksudkan turut melibatkan hubungan dua hala dalam aspek ekonomi, perdagangan, pelaburan, bantuan luar dan kerjasama antara kedua-dua negara dan pada peringkat serantau (ASEAN). Sungguhpun begitu, isu ini hanya difokuskan dalam tempoh 1957-1970-an manakala hubungan dan kerjasama Malaysia – Jepun pada tahun 1980-an dan seterusnya lebih tertumpu kepada aspek pendidikan dan latihan. Penulis mengambil pendekatan mengasingkan perbincangan mengenai dua isu mengikut tempoh tertentu kerana berpendapat ianya dapat menekankan dua isu yang berlainan pada latar belakang masa yang berbeza namun masih mempunyai kaitan dan saling berhubung kait. Isu penting lain yang turut diperkatakan termasuklah faedah-faedah dan kelemahan yang wujud sepanjang hubungan kedua-dua buah negara.

The largely Arabo-centric approach to the academic study of tafsir has resulted in a lack of literature exploring the diversity of Qur'anic interpretation in other areas of the Muslim-majority world. The essays in The Qur'an in the Malay-Indonesian World resolve this, aiming to expand our knowledge of tafsir and its history in the Malay-Indonesian world. Highlighting the scope of Qur'anic interpretation in the Malay world in its various vernaculars, it also contextualizes this work to reveal its place as part of the wider Islamic world, especially through its connections to the Arab world, and demonstrates the strength of these connections. The volume is divided into three parts written primarily by scholars from Malaysia and Indonesia. Beginning with a historical overview, it then moves into chapters with a more specifically regional focus to conclude with a thematic approach by looking at topics of some controversy in the broader world. Presenting new examinations of an under-researched topic, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of Islamic studies and Southeast Asian studies.
