Description - Transforming Malaysia by Anthony Milner
In the wake of Malaysiaa's 13th General Election some commentators speak of a sharpening of ethnic politics a" with Prime Minister Najib blaming a a���Chinese tsunamia��� for his governmenta's polling setbacks; others are optimistic about the arrival of a new a���non-racialized form of politicsa��� and the emergence of a���transethnic solidaritya���. This book which engages with both the race paradigm and its opponents warns that change is likely to come slowly a" but is not impossible. Malaysiaa's race paradigm is a man-made ideological construct a" one that has been contested in the past and could realistically be contested in the future. In confronting the continuing challenge of globalization Malaysians should not neglect the history of ideas a" and ideology a" as they search for new options.
