Negotiating Malay Identities in Singapore
Singapore Malays subscribe to mostly traditional rather than modern interpretations of Islam. Singapore state officials, however, wish to curb the challenges such interpretations bring to the country's political, social, educational and economic domains. Thus, these officials launched a programme to socially engineer modern Muslim identities amongst Singapore Malays in 2003, which is ongoing. Negotiating Muslim Identities documents a variety of ethnographic encounters that point to the power struggles surrounding two basic and very different ways of living. While the Singapore state has gained some successes for its project, it has also faced significant and multiple setbacks. Amongst them, ...
Singapore
On 9 August 2015, Singapore celebrated its 50th year of national independence, a milestone for the nation as it has overcome major economic, social, cultural and political challenges in a short period of time.

The Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam
The Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam (1930) is Muhammad Iqbal's major philosophic work: a series of profound reflections on the perennial conflict among science, religion, and philosophy, culminating in new visions of the unity of human knowledge, of the human spirit, and of God. Iqbal's thought contributed significantly to the establishment of Pakistan, to the religious and political ideals of the Iranian Revolution, and to the survival of Muslim identity in parts of the former USSR. It now serves as new bridge between East and West and between Islam and the other Religions of the Book. With a new Introduction by Javed Majeed, this edition of The Reconstruction opens the teachings of Iqbal to the modern, Western reader. It will be essential reading for all those interested in Islamic intellectual history, the renewal of Islam in the modern world, and political theory of Islam's relationship to the West.

Tema Baru Penulisan Sejarah (Penerbit UM)

Penulisan tradisional dahulu, menekankan hanya bukti tertulis sahaja dikatakan sejarah dan tumpuan lebih kepada kajian terhadap politik. Oleh itu kajian sosial atau ekonomi dalam penulisan sejarah amat terhad. Namun pada masa kini corak dan pola penulisan sejarah sudah berubah berkaitan sejarah manusia dengan pandangan lebih menye-luruh. Ini membuktikan bahawa kajian dan penulisan sejarah adalah bersifat dinamik serta mempu-nyai ruang untuk menyelongkar isu dan tema baru. Dalam masa sama, kaedah dan sumber yang digunakan turut divariasikan dengan memanfaatkan sumber lisan, visual dan pelbagai disiplin ilmu lain.
