Malaysia is one of Southeast Asia's most diverse and economically dynamic countries, with a history shaped by ancient trading kingdoms, successive waves of colonization, Japanese occupation, and the complex process of building a multiracial post-independence nation. This book traces Malaysian history from the Malay kingdoms of the medieval period through British colonialism, independence in 1957, and the country's modern development.
Key topics include the Malacca Sultanate and its role as a hub of trade and Islam in the region, the Portuguese, Dutch, and British colonial periods, the Japanese occupation during World War 2, the Emergency against communist insurgents, and the political and economic development of modern Malaysia under the Alliance and subsequent coalitions. It is written for a general English-speaking readership with an interest in Asian history.
Contents:
Reader review: "An accessible and well-organized history of a country that receives far too little attention in English. Very informative." -- A. Rahman
This title suits Southeast Asian history, Asian studies, and Commonwealth history sections. It is appropriate for public libraries, academic booksellers, and trade buyers serving readers interested in the history of Southeast Asia.
