Nicholas Chan wrote about Islam and the politics of counter-terror in Malaysia on the SUP blog: blog.sup.org/internationa...

#ReadUP

Frist paragraph from Nicholas Chan's blog entry: "When we speak about the ‘politics of something’, it often carries two pejorative meanings. Firstly, politics acts as a cover, a veneer that masks what political actors are actually up to. For example, the politics of good government papered over the imperatives of colonialism and empire. Secondly, politics is a distraction. It pulls a project away from its original goal and purposes. Politics are the detours, compromises, and buy-ins one must make to get things moving. For example, the politics of housing reform means dealing with a maze of interest groups, regulations, and stakeholders."

"THE SPECTER OF BABEL is a formidable challenge to anyone intent on downplaying the continued urgency of either the European enlightenment or the type of critical theory set on continuing its unfinished project." — CONTEMPORARY POLITICAL THEORY
