The way in which Malays construe ideas about authority and government is the subject of this book. Focusing upon an often-ignored section of the Malay archipelago, Barus, a small kingdom on the coast of northwest Sumatra, the author compares readings based upon the royal chronicles of Hilir and Hulu Barus. She examines the relationship between the upland and the lowland to study the character of Malay political culture in Barus.
Having experienced a large-scale reorganization of social order over the past decade, people of the Malay world have struggled to position themselves. They have been classified - and have classified themselves - with categories as bangsa (nation/ethnic group) and umma (Islamic network). In connection with these key concepts, this study explores a variety of dimensions of these and other 'people-grouping' classifications, which also include Malayu, Jawi, and Paranakan. The book examines how these categories played a significant part in the colonial and post-colonial periods in areas ranging from Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. It demonstrates the extent to which shifting social conditions interact with the contours of group identity. This is a collaborative work by scholars based in the US, Japan, Malaysia, and Australia. *** "Understanding the genealogy of people-grouping concepts provides valuable insight into the mechanics of power relations and how the agency of cultural identification constructs the continuity and the contentious in the political world".

By exploring a rich array of Malay texts from novels and newspapers to poems and plays, Tom G. Hoogervorst's Language Ungoverned examines how the Malay of the Chinese-Indonesian community defied linguistic and political governance under Dutch colonial rule, offering a fresh perspective on the subversive role of language in colonial power relations. As a liminal colonial population, the ethnic Chinese in Indonesia resorted to the press for their education, legal and medical advice, conflict resolution, and entertainment. Hoogervorst deftly depicts how the linguistic choices made by these print entrepreneurs brought Chinese-inflected Malay to the fore as the language of popular culture and everyday life, subverting the official Malay of the Dutch authorities. Through his readings of Sino-Malay print culture published between the 1910s and 1940s, Hoogervorst highlights the inherent value of this vernacular Malay as a language of the people.
Presents a genealogy of the social networks and power struggles of the major influential group of Indonesian educated Muslims called 'intelligentsia'.
“... salah satu ‘lagu ulangan’ yang akan kembali berkumandang, khusus oleh kelompok nasionalis ialah; menjajakan keunggulan peradaban Melayu satu ketika dahulu. Di sebalik hujah yang dinyatakan tersebut, salah satu yang sering diabaikan oleh ‘sejarawan retrophiliac’ adalah faktor keadaan manusia Melayu murbawan itu sendiri. Sebagai misalan, soalan yang mungkin sering diabaikan adalah apakah kegemilangan dan kehebatan peradaban Melayu tersebut dapat dikecapi, dinikmati sama-rata atau sampai ke kaum bawahan, rakyat jelata dan manusia kecil?” Faisal Tehrani Kompilasi baru ini mengandungi sepilihan esei-esei provokatif dan polemik karya Faisal Tehrani. Antara tumpuannya termasuk agama, sastera, sejarah dan politik – empat bidang yang biasa menjadi ruang pemikiran konservatif dan reaksioner. Dalam buku ini, hal-hal semasa seperti kesupreman Melayu, pengharaman buku-buku, budaya keagamaan dan lain-lain dibincangkan dalam bentuk yang cukup berseni, berteraskan sumber sejarah dan analisis tajam.
