4-0 out of 5 stars An insider's view from an outsider on Malaysian politics
Harold Crouch narrates with ease and authority on a subject matter that he had observed for more than a decade from within. He frames his analysis on a simple but powerful assumption that Malaysian politics and societyoperates essentially on the basis of a 'moving equilibrium', combininghormoniusly and effectively conflict and consensus in a continuoslyreconstituted continuum. Watch not only for the main text, but theimportant revealing footnotes, too. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
Government and Politics in Malaysia addresses core political science concerns over the nature of political systems, and key political issues. The chapters are written by specialists, both local and international, with an intimate knowledge of the country. The chapters are self contained and contributors have followed more or less a uniform format. They begin by introducing the topic from a theoretical perspective explaining, albeit briefly, the nature of the concept, its types and functions, both from Islamic and Western perspectives, in easily understandable terms. Thus, the contributors present the recent models and approaches to the study of politics in a cogent form and show their application to the intensive study of the political system of a particular country. Each chapter also begins with a brief overview of the historical development of the institution or process presented, and then examines its role in contemporary Malaysian politics at length. The past is examined, it must be emphasized, in order to comprehend the present. Taken as a whole, the book provides readers with a greater appreciation and a deeper understanding of the core concerns of government and politics in Malaysia from its inception to its current position as a country determined to achieve developed-nation status by 2020.

Key Features
(1) Covers some of the issues not covered in earlier works on Malaysian government and politics

Product Description

This IDC study updates IDC's latest 2005–2009 combined forecast for IT spending by the Malaysia government. In addition to forecasting the overall government IT spending, IDC compares the market trends by broad IT segment in 2004 and 2005. This study also highlights the drivers and barriers to new government IT spending through detailed discussion of the IT spending trends in the government. In line with the previous discussion on IT spending trends, a detailed discussion on the strategic government priorities in IT will be illustrated.

"IDC expects modernization efforts to drive Malaysia government IT spending over the forecast period. Spending will reach US$547.7 million by 2009, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.5% from 2005 to 2009," says Andrew Wong, research manager, IDC Malaysia. "Since spending will continue to revolve around building out the government IT infrastructure, hardware spending will remain the largest broad IT segment. IT services and mobility solutions represent significant government growth areas for the next five years," he adds.

Editorial Review

Product Description
Why do some authoritarian regimes topple during financial crises, while others steer through financial crises relatively unscathed? In this book, Thomas B. Pepinsky uses the experiences of Indonesia and Malaysia and the analytical tools of open economy macroeconomics to answer this question. Focusing on the economic interests of authoritarian regimes' supporters, Pepinsky shows that differences in cross-border asset specificity produce dramatically different outcomes in regimes facing financial crises. When asset specificity divides supporters, as in Indonesia, they desire mutually incompatible adjustment policies, yielding incoherent adjustment policy followed by regime collapse. When coalitions are not divided by asset specificity, as in Malaysia, regimes adopt radical adjustment measures that enable them to survive financial crises. Combining rich qualitative evidence from Southeast Asia with cross-national time-series data and comparative case studies of Latin American autocracies, Pepinsky reveals the power of coalitions and capital mobility to explain how financial crises produce regime change. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description
This book is an insightful and accessible analysis of contemporary Malaysian business and politics. Using the concepts of rent and rent-seeking as tools to study the Malaysian political economy, the authors explore how political patronage influences the accumulation and concentration of wealth. The book considers the impact of party politics and economic development on the relationship between politics and business in Malaysia, and provides up-to-date discussions of government-led change in Malaysia's business community, including the emergence of a Malay business class. In this revised edition, the authors examine how the 1997 Asian currency, liquidity and financial crises have impacted on Malaysia's economy. Their discussion canvasses various economic policy responses, including capital control measures, as well the ensuing economic recession and political turmoil. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Real World View
Those pursuing major business (or considering pursuit of business) in Malaysia need to read this book.If you are very familiar with Malaysia politics and business, it makes a great read.Otherwise, only of interestto academics in politics, political economy, and perhaps 'TransparencyInternational.'The only caveat is that it mainly applies to very largebusiness efforts - while something of the entire patronage cultureobviously permiates many transaction levels here, only the really big(nationally important) stuff draws the kind of attention discussed in thisbook.

The book basically presents a slightly pessimistic but fairlyaccurate view of major business efforts and their effects.The bookconcludes in the midst of the 1997/8 economic melt-down and subsequentpolitical maneuverings, but stops well short of the late 1999 election.

5-0 out of 5 stars Insightful and objective
When looking at the political economy of Malaysia many authors are quick in taking an extreme point of view. Gomez and Jomo, on the other hand, focus on the reality of the Malaysian situation. Their analysis of thefunctioning of Malaysia's political economy is frank and thoroughly backedup. By concentrating on the effects of Mahathir's privatisation policies onthe Malaysian economy, they have pinpointed several key structuralweaknesses which need to be addressed; especially in view of the pressingpolitial and economic issues which are currently affecting Malaysia. Thebook therefore, is an absolute must for people interested in Malaysia'scomplex economic structure.

3-0 out of 5 stars Fills half of the gap!
This book is essentially about profits, politics, and patronage in Malaysia. Indeed it is a useful detailed study on 'political economy in action' rather than the political economy of Malaysia. Those looking for asurvey of previous studies on the political economy in Malaysia shall bedisappointed. ... Read more

Product Description

This book analyzes the successes and failures of various federal measures adopted in India, Pakistan and Malaysia for the political accommodation of diversity. Bhattacharyya then assesses their comparative significance for other countries in Asia. In particular, he examines growing tensions between nation and state-building in ethnically plural societies; modes of federation-building in Asia; persistent ethno-nationalist tensions in federations, and the relationship between federalism and democracy; and federalism and decentralization.  Since ethno-nationalist conflict remains unresolved in most countries of Asia, this book should of interest to those seeking long-term solutions of problems of order and stability in ethnically diverse countries in Asia.
