This book explores the lives of Malay and Cham Muslims in Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam, examining how they co-exist in societies dominated by an alternative consensus and non-democratic nature.

This comprehensive book delves into the intricate lives of the Malay and Cham Muslims in Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam, exploring their coexistence and adaptation within societies that operate under alternative consensus and exhibit illiberal and non-democratic characteristics. By focusing on these two significant Muslim communities, both of which reside as minorities in contexts that lack democratic principles and have a history of hostility and repression towards non-conforming ideas, the book offers a profound understanding of their circumstances, the choices they face, and the strategies they employ to thrive in challenging, monocultural environments.

Drawing upon extensive fieldwork and rigorous research, the author meticulously analyzes the ways in which people navigate their lives and adapt to societies that are not driven by Western liberal ideals of multiculturalism. The book provides a unique perspective on how Islam evolves in an environment where it is often perceived as alien and disloyal.

As a valuable contribution to the field of academic study, this book offers insightful analysis of historical and post-colonial experiences of Muslim minorities in mainland Southeast Asia. It sheds light on their survival strategies, resilience, and evolution amidst the dominance of state monopoly. It will be of immense interest to scholars and researchers engaged in the study of Muslim minorities, Asian Religion, and Southeast Asian Studies.
