Malay Studies

Welcome to our Malay Studies collections, where you will find a wide range of books on the Malay world, including Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, southern Thailand, and the southern Philippines. Our selection also includes titles on areas with Malay minorities, such as Singapore, and countries with significant Malay diaspora populations, such as Sri Lanka, Madagascar, and South Africa. Our books on Malay studies focus on three core areas: social development and political economy, history, and literature/linguistics. Within each of these areas, we also cover the role of Islam in the Malay world, including its historical development, its interaction with social and political processes, and its various intellectual and literary expressions. Our selection of books is informative and authoritative, providing a thorough understanding of the culture, history, and society of the Malay world.
