Book Description
Buku ini menjelaskan bagaimana kontrak sosial yang dimeterai Perlembagaan Persekutuan 1957 dirangka untuk tujuan menyelesaikan kepentingan semua kaum di Tanah Melayu, baik majoriti mahupun minoriti. Pada masa sama, buku ini turut merungkai bagaimana 'kontrak sosial' yang tidak wujud secara istilah pada teks Perlembagaan Persekutun 1957 diguna pakai untuk menterjemah takrif persefahaman dan kesepakatan bagi keadilan sosial tiga kaum terbesar di Tanah Melayu. Perlaksanaannya berteraskan semangat mendalam dan ia terbukti berkesan memelihara keharmonian kaum sehingga hari ini. Berikutan itu, ia wajar dilindungi dan buku ini akan memperincikan perbincangan yang disertakan dokumen lengkap bagi membolehkan kontrak sosial difahami dan seterusnya menutup debat percanggahan serta pertelingkahan yang hanya bermaksud mengucar-ngacirkan negara.

Book Description
Providing an ethnographic account of the Islamic Party of Malaysia (PAS) and its Youth Wing (Dewan Pemuda PAS), this book analyses the genesis and role of Islamic movements in terms of their engagement in mainstream politics. It explores the party’s changing approach towards popular culture and critically investigates whether the narrative of a post-Islamist turn can be applied to the PAS Youth. The book shows that in contrast to the assumption that Islamic marketization and post-Islamism are reinforcing each other, the PAS Youth has strategically appropriated and integrated Islamic consumerism to pursue a decidedly Islamist – or ‘pop-Islamist’ – political agenda. The media-savvy PAS Youth elites, which are at the forefront of implementing new outreach strategies for the party, categorically oppose tendencies of political moderation among the senior party. Instead, they are most passionately calling for the establishment of a Syariah-based Islamic oder for state and society, although these renewed calls are increasingly expressed through modern channels such as Facebook, YouTube, rock music, celebrity advertising, branded commodities and other market-driven forms of social movement mobilization. A timely and significant contribution to the literature on Islam and politics in Malaysia and beyond, this book sheds new light on widespread assumptions or even hopes of "post-Islamism". It is of interest to students and scholars of Political Religion and Southeast Asian Politics.

Book Description
Examining some of the most critical issues in Malaysian politics today, including human rights, law and democracy, gender and Islam, this book explores the contours of the contemporary landscape of Malaysian politics, focusing especially on politics among the majority ethnic Malay community. In particular, the book explains why changes in patterns of political mobilization and the rhetoric of the dominant parties - particularly the PAS and UMNO - have been so limited, despite the overt and growing dissatisfaction shown by Malaysians with the state of their political system and the ability of these parties to represent their interests. It considers the recent history of events and discourses within Malaysian society, and UMNO and PAS, and goes on to analyze why important transitions have occurred in society yet political parties have not adapted themselves to these changes and remained reticent about instituting meaningful reforms involving these matters.

Book Description
Malaysia, home to some twenty million Muslims, is often held up as a model of a pro-Western Islamic nation. The government of Malaysia, in search of Western investment, does its best to perpetuate this view. But this isn't the whole story. Over the last several decades, Joseph Liow shows, Malaysian politics has taken a strong turn toward Islamism. This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the growing role of Islam in the last quarter century of Malaysian politics. Conventional wisdom suggest that the ruling UMNO party has moved toward Islamism to fend off challenges from the more heavily Islamist opposition party, PAS. Liow argues, however, that UMNO has often taken the lead in moving toward Islamism, and that in fact PAS has often been forced to react. The result, Liow argues, is a game of "piety-trumping" that will be very difficult to reverse, and that has dire consequences not only for the ethnic and religious minorities of Malaysia, but for their democratic system as a whole.

Book Description
The first comprehensive study of the involvement of Malay, Chinese, and Indian women in the politics of Malaysia, this volume traces the rise and growth of the major women's auxiliaries of various political parties and notes their contribution to the evolution of the political party system in Malaysia. Unearthing previously untapped historical information, Dancz examines the nature of women's participation within the party system and analyzes the reasons why women became active, the conditions under which these auxiliaries were formed, and the political and social constraints under which they operated.
