Discourses, Agency and Identity in Malaysia
This book seeks to break new ground, both empirically and conceptually, in examining discourses of identity formation and the agency of critical social practices in Malaysia. Taking an inclusive cultural studies perspective, it questions the ideological narrative of ‘race’ and ‘ethnicity’ that dominates explanations of conflicts and cleavages in the Malaysian context. The contributions are organised in three broad themes. ‘Identities in Contestation: Borders, Complexities and Hybridities’ takes a range of empirical studies—literary translation, religion, gender, ethnicity, indigeneity and sexual orientation—to break down preconceived notions of fixed identities. This then ope...
Capturing Globalization
What are the moral codes and normative principles inscribed in globalization? How do diverse communities optimize their positions, and try to capture these processes? What are the foremost cultural and political attempts to govern the market? What are the social and ethical limits to a framework based on deregulation, privitization and liberalization? These related themes reveal how issues such as religion, private capital flows, poverty, the state and democracy, transnational class structures, disruptions in culture and new patterns in the use of language are part of the globalization process. Empirically, the research derives from data from fieldwork within and outside Southeast Asia, with...
Social Policy in the Islamic World
This book examines social policy in Muslim countries across the world and the status and role of Islamic teachings in such policies. It fills a gap in the literature by reviewing and comparing the experience of several Muslim countries from across the world. The existing social policy literature lacks a comprehensive appraisal of the social policy scene in Muslim societies, especially from a comparative perspective. This book will be of interest to a wide audience in the academic and policy forums related to and interested in Muslim societies and communities.

Masyarakat Nelayan Malaysia dan Indonesia
Permasalahan masyarakat nelayan di Malaysia dan Indonesia adalah unik dan khas. Keduanya mirip, tapi berbeda.

Maka buku Masyarakat Nelayan Malaysia dan Indonesia: Kajian Pembangunan dan Perubahan ini menjadi menarik dan penti...

Keusahawanan Etnik Cina Malaysia: Kerajaan, Budaya dan Globalisasi
Syarahan ini mengambil pendirian bahawa sebagai unsur yang dinamik, budaya dan budaya niaga mengambil bentuk yang berlainan dalam konteks struktur sosiekonomi dan politik yang berubah dalam proses pembangunan negara. Budaya niaga etnik Cina Malaysia mengambil bentuk yang berbeza mengikut perubahan dasar ekonomi negara, peluasan peranan kerajaan dalam ekonomi yang melahirkan aktor-aktor baharu dalam bidang ekonomi sama ada untuk bersaing mahupun bekerjasama dengan usahawan Cina dan lain-lain, serta proses globalisasi ekonomi yang semakin pesat dan mencabar yang menuntut daya saing tinggi. Hal ini bererti budaya niaga Cina tidak boleh lagi semata-mata bersifat keluarga dan intra-etnik tetapi h...
