        abstract = {An all too common feature of history has been how such externallyintroduced
cultural institutions as religion, has served to move peoples from
their parochial, self-contained communities into wider ones committed to
universal values. As it were, both Islam and Christianity, which are universal
in intent, have served to induce peoples in Southeast Asia to conceive of
themselves as part of wider human communities that have transcended the
limitations of race, language, region and geography. Yet, paradoxically, Islam
and to a lesser extent Christianity as well, have provided those very elements
oi identity which played a large part in the struggle of the Malay peoples
against foreign domination. No full understanding of these peoples' political,
economic, and social conditions as well as of their concomittant expectations
and tendencies is possible without taking into account the spiritual framework
within which they lived.}
