This book seeks to break new ground, both empirically and conceptually, in examining discourses of identity formation and the agency of critical social practices in Malaysia. Taking an inclusive cultural studies perspective, it questions the ideological narrative of race and ethnicity that dominates explanations of conflicts and cleavages in the Malaysian context. The contributions are organised in three broad themes. Identities in Contestation: Borders, Complexities and Hybridities takes a range of empirical studiesliterary translation, religion, gender, ethnicity, indigeneity and sexual orientationto break down preconceived notions of fixed identities. This then opens up an examination of Identities and Movements: Agency and Alternative Discourses, in which contributors deal with counter-hegemonic social movementsof anti-racism, young people, environmentalism and independent publishingthat explicitly seek to open up greater critical, democratic space within the Malaysian polity. The third section, Identities and Narratives: Culture and the Media, then provides a close textual reading of some exemplars of new cultural and media practices found in oral testimonies, popular music, film, radio programming and storytelling who have consciously created bodies of work that question the dominant national narrative. This book is a valuable interdisciplinary work for advanced students and researchers interested in representations of identity and nationhood in Malaysia, and for those with wider interests in the fields of critical cultural studies and discourse analysis.
