Cosmopolitan ideals and pluralist tendencies have been employed creatively and adapted carefully by Muslim individuals, societies and institutions in modern Southeast Asia to produce the necessary contexts for mutual tolerance and shared respect between and within different groups in society. Organised around six key themes that interweave the connected histories of three countries in Southeast Asia - Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia - this book shows the ways in which historical actors have promoted better understanding between Muslims and non-Muslims in the region. Case studies from across these countries of the Malay world take in the rise of the network society in the region in the 1970s up until the early 21st century, providing a panoramic view of Muslim cosmopolitan practices, outlook and visions in the region.

While the British became the dominant colonial power in South Asia, the Dutch, Portuguese, and French also initially vied for control of the region. This volume traces the rise of European influence in South Asia with an in-depth discussion of the path to colonialism and various facets of colonial rule. It contains a history of resistance to colonial rule, discusses how the people of South Asia won their independence, and how explains how the region evolved after independence–including the partition of India and Bangladesh's separation from Pakistan. Readers will come away with an understanding of how colonialism shaped South Asia today.

By examining the sometimes surprising and unexpected roles that culture and religion have played in mitigating or exacerbating conflicts, this book explores the cultural repertoires from which Southeast Asian political actors have drawn to negotiate the pluralism that has so long been characteristic of the region. Focusing on the dynamics of identity politics and the range of responses to the socio-political challenges of religious and ethnic pluralism, the authors assembled in this book illuminate the principal regional discourses that attempt to make sense of conflict and tensions. They examine local notions of "dialogue," "reconciliation," "civility" and "conflict resolution" and show how varying interpretations of these terms have informed the responses of different social actors across Southeast Asia to the challenges of conflict, culture and religion. The book demonstrates how stumbling blocks to dialogue and reconciliation can and have been overcome in different parts of Southeast Asia and identifies a range of actors who might be well placed to make useful contributions, propose remedies, and initiate action towards negotiating the region's pluralism. This book provides a much needed regional and comparative analysis that makes a significant contribution to a better understanding of the interfaces between region and politics in Southeast Asia.

This dissertation addresses the question of how violence and colonial war-making disconnected and reconnected Islamic peoples across the boundaries of region, colony, and nation. In the extant literature conquest and rebellion has generally been interpreted as discrete events limited in time and space. However, war also entailed ramifications that reached far beyond the battlefield, providing inadvertent opportunities for Muslims to re-forge commercial ties, create new types of religious organizations, and reclaim their place in the global community of Muslims (umma), developments which directly contributed to the anti-colonial movement of the 1920s and 1930s. To elucidate this dialectical process of destruction and creation, this dissertation employs a distinctive methodology of paired comparison. By taking two paired case studies, West Sumatra versus Aceh in colonial Indonesia, and Sulu versus Zamboanga in the Philippines, it becomes possible to see the most protracted colonial wars of Southeast Asia--the Dutch Aceh War and the Moro Wars--in the context of immediate neighbors that did not suffer war, but flourished as an inadvertent consequence. Paired comparisons thus display the synergies and simultaneities between exclusion and inclusion, disconnection and re-connection, war and peace. Specifically, I utilize the analytical concepts of "enclosure" and "coercive cosmopolitanism." Enclosure denotes the range of imperial policies that colonial powers deployed to detach Muslims from networks that stretched across the Indian Ocean world. Coercive cosmopolitanism refers to the processes of entanglement by which local Muslims became intertwined with the circuits of the colonial state and could, paradoxically, reconnect with their co-religionists across the globe. This comparative analysis of Sumatra and Sulu, enclosure and coercive cosmopolitanism, illustrates that there was no inherent, immovable violent edge of the Islamic world. Instead there is a kaleidoscopic flux of ever-shifting cores and peripheries that generated innumerable pockets of inclusion and exclusion, a patchwork of overlapping modernities. In sum, this finding of fluid cores and peripheries provides a framework flexible enough to be applied to other areas of the Islamic world, yet focused enough on discrete variables like enclosure and coercive cosmopolitanism to illuminate the significance of Southeast Asia's most controversial colonial wars

In recent years, a steady stream of reportage and commentary has spotlighted a dangerous "Islamist threat" in Southeast Asia. This study, by contrast, offers a very different account. In descriptive terms, this study suggests that such an alarmist picture is highly overdrawn, and it traces instead a pattern of marked decline, demobilization, and disentanglement from state power in recent years for Islamist forces in Southeast Asia. This trend is evident both in the disappointments experienced in recent years by previously ascendant Islamist forces in Indonesia and Malaysia, and in the diminished position of Muslim power brokers in southern Thailand and the Philippines after more than a decade of cooperation with non-Muslim politicians in Manila and Bangkok. In explanatory terms, moreover, this study shows the significance of social and political context. A fuller appreciation of aggression by anti-Islamists and non-Muslims, and of the insecurity, weakness, and fractiousness of Islamist forces themselves, helps to explain the nature, extent, and limitations of Islamist violence, aggression, and assertiveness. This overarching alternative framework not only provides a very different explanation for the "Islamist threat" in Southeast Asia, but also suggests very different policy implications from those offered by specialists on terrorism working on the region.
