Routledge Publish Two New Books on Brunei

Origins, History and Social Structure in Brunei Darussalam. London: Routledge, edited by Victor T. King and Stephen C. Druce, 2021.

Continuity and Change in Brunei Darussalam. London: Routledge, edited by Victor T. King and Stephen C. Druce, 2021.

Two new books on Brunei have recently been published by Routledge. Both present the results of a collaborative project by UBD’s Academy of Brunei Studies and Institute of Asian Studies, led by Professor Victor T. King and Dr Stephen C. Druce. Both books represent a celebration and evaluation of Professor Donald Brown’s important work on Brunei, the best known of which is his 1970 monograph published by the Brunei Museum.

The first book, Origins, History and Social Structure in Brunei Darussalam, is dedicated to Pengiran Dato Paduka Haji Shariffuddin bin Pengiran Metali (1936–2018), the first Director of the Brunei Museum. The books comprise of chapters by the editors and major international and local scholars, including former Academy of Brunei Studies Director, Dato Paduka Haji Abdul Latif bin Haji Ibrahim, and present Director, Dr Haji Tassim bin Abu Bakar. Professor Donald Brown also presents a Prologue to Origins, History and Social Structure in Brunei Darussalam and an Epilogue to Continuity and Change in Brunei Darussalam.

Book Description

This wide-ranging book re-evaluates in detail the early history and historiography of Brunei Darussalam, the origins of the sultanate, its genealogical foundations and the structure and administration of Brunei society. Contributors draw on the seminal work of Donald E. Brown whose major monograph on the sultanate was published in 1970 and marked the beginnings of advanced sociological, anthropological and historical research on Brunei. Among the key issues addressed are status systems, titles and social stratification, Chinese sources for the study of Brunei, Malay oral and written histories and traditions, the symbolism, meanings and origins of coronation rituals, previously unknown sources for the study of Brunei history and the processes of incorporation of minority populations into the sultanate. Contributions by leading scholars of Brunei, Borneo and the wider Indonesian-Malay world, both from within Brunei Darussalam and beyond, address some central preoccupations which Brown raised and which have been the subject of continued debate in Austronesian and Southeast Asian studies. A novel contribution to the study of the history of Brunei Darussalam, this book will be of interest to scholars of Southeast Asian history, Asian history, Colonial and Imperial history and anthropology.

Book Description

This book analyses the processes of social and economic change in Brunei Darussalam. Drawing on recent studies undertaken by both locally based scholars and senior researchers from outside the state, the book explores the underlying strengths, characteristics, and uniqueness of Malay Islamic Monarchy in Brunei Darussalam in a historical context and examines these in an increasingly challenging regional and global environment. It considers events in Brunei’s recent history and current socio-cultural transformations, which give expression to the traumatic years of decolonisation in Southeast Asia. A wide range of issues focus on foreign, non-Bruneian narratives of Brunei as against insider or domestic accounts of the sultanate, the status of minority ethnic groups in Brunei and the concept of ‘Brunei society’, as well as changes in the character and composition of the famous ‘water village’, Kampong Ayer, as the cultural heartland of Brunei Malay culture and the socio-cultural and economic effects of the resettlement of substantial segments of the population from a ‘life on water’ to a ‘life on land’. A timely and very important study on Brunei Darussalam, the book will be of interest to anthropologists, sociologists, historians, geographers, and area studies specialists in Southeast Asian Studies and Asian Studies.

Kesultanan Brunei Darussalam: Koleksi Artikel Khas Disumbangkan kepada Yang Berhormat Pehin Jawatan Dalam Seri Maharaja Dato Seri Utama Professor Kehormatan Dr. Haji Awang Mohammad Jamil Al-Sufri. Bandar Seri Begawan: Persatuan Sejarah Brunei (PESEBAR), edited by Haji Awang Asbol bin Haji Mail, Ampuan Haji Brahim bin Ampuan Haji Tengah, Haji Tassim bin Haji Abu Bakar and Haji Rosli bin Haji Ampal, 2020.

Book Description

The book, comprising of eight chapters, is a study of Brunei’s social history with a specific focus on the development of education. It covers Malay education, English education, Chinese education, vocational education, and Brunei education policies more generally from 1950 to 1985. This book can be used as reference material for both students and scholars and will be particularly useful to those who are less proficient in the Malay language. The book also forms a strong basis for future research on the development of Brunei education from various perspectives.

Book Description

This book examines how Brunei education policies from 1954 to 2014 were tailored to meet the needs of the time. The books discusses the major challenges these policies have faced, including the adoption of Malay as the instructional medium in the education policies of 1954, 1962 and 1972. With the introduction of the Bilingual Education Policy and SPN 21, it was apparent that previous policies had not managed to make Malay the medium of instruction and that it had become overshadowed by English. This was also the case when the 21st Century National Education System was launched in 2008 to replace the previous system, which was no longer able to provide the academic and skills programmes relevant to developing more technical and technology based skills in a globalising world. However, the new policy created some discontent among Muslims in the country as it was felt that Islamic Education and Malay Islamic Monarchy teaching were no longer core, but only elective subjects. Mainly due to public pressure, as well as the Sultan's reprimand, in late 2009 both were made core subjects in the education system.

Book Description

This book discusses the comparative roles of the Pengiran Bendahara of the Brunei Sultanate and the Bendahara of the Malacca Sultanate, encompassing aspects of politics, territorial ownership, laws, defence and international relations. This comparative analysis further extends to the concepts of daulat (sovereign) and derhaka (disloyalty). The study argues that the Pengiran Bendahara of Brunei and the Bendahara of Malacca have contributed significantly to their respective states, as can be seen from their roles in lifting the dignity of both Sultanates in achieving greatness until the age of decline.
