Human Rights and the New World Order
On Violence
This anthology brings together classic perspectives on violence, putting into productive conversation the thought of well-known theorists and activists, including Hannah Arendt, Karl Marx, G. W. F. Hegel, Osama bin Laden, Sigmund Freud, Frantz Fanon, Thomas Hobbes, and Pierre Bourdieu. The volume proceeds from the editors’ contention that violence is always historically contingent; it must be contextualized to be understood. They argue that viole…

Morality in Public Life
I am honored - and deeply humbled - to be invited by the Association of Muslim Social Scientists to deliver the Ismail al-Faruqi Memorial Lecture this evening. Professor Ismail al-Faruqi was undoubtedly one of the most accomplished and one of the most illustrious thinkers that the Muslim world has produced in recent decades.

The Asian Renaissance
From human rights to human dignity
Mainstream human rights ideas that most of us are familiar with today evolved from the European Enlightenment and the secularization of thought and society of the last 150 years.

Malaysia
Islamic resurgence or the rising again of Islam is a description of the endeavour to re-establish Islamic values, practices, institutions, laws, indeed Islam in its entirety, in the lives of Muslims everywhere.1 It is an attempt to re-create an Islamic ethos and social order at the vortex of which is the Islamic human being, guided by the Qur'an and the Sunnah. The signs of Islamic resurgence in Malaysia are everywhere. The rapid diffusion of wha…
The 1982 Malaysian General Election
Malaysia
This paper attempts to give a general overview of developments in Malaysia in 1977 with special emphasis on the political aspect. The paper would therefore deal mainly with politics within the National Front (NF or Barisan Nasional) coalition and its various component parties. Economic and foreign affairs are also briefly examined. The year 1977 has been a stirring one for Malaysian politics. It will be known eventually, it seems to me, as the ye…
