Outline and Purpose of the Course This class addresses the Islamic movements in Southeast Asia from the late colonial period to the middle of the 20th century through reading studies. Previously, researchers on the Southeast Asian political movements of this period focused on secular nationalism. Recent studies, however, have made attempts to reexamine the significance of Islamic movements. One of the reasons for the increased interest is that for understanding the current Islamic movement it is necessary to consider the continuities and changes from the past. This class will also explain the relations with the outer Islamic world and the historical background.
Course Goals To acquire fundamental knowledge of the historical development of Islam in modern Southeast Asia, and to understand the issues discussed in previous studies.
To learn how to conduct one’s own research and to compose discussion through the critical examination of previous studies.
