Description:
This book is a pioneering study of political debate in an important Southeast Asian society. It reexamines the formative period in Malay nationalism and argues against using nationalism as a paradigm of analysis. By 'interrogating' a range of key Malay texts from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, Anthony Milner shows how contested and problematic the sphere of nationalism was.
