초록
This paper explores the future of radical politics in a bifurcated Malaysian society whereby Islamization has paralysed resistance. It argues that in an incapacitated public sphere, resistance has to find new spaces and strategies. Drawing on theoretical innovations from inter-Asia paradigms and evidence of popular religious and artistic practices in urban Malaysia, it makes a case on silent resistance occurring at subterranean, every day and personal levels that reconfigures ethical traditions long in circulation in the (Southeast) Asian region as bearing promise for a renewal of radical politics. That this is so is due to their ability to recover transcultural and convivial pasts and render back a capacity for critical interrogation of hegemonic impositions on self and community. Such quiet practices show that radical politics has to begin with mindful self-transformations and that materiality, bodily experiences and performances are powerful vessels for the renewal of political consciousness and action.
Abstract
This paper explores the future of radical politics in a bifurcated Malaysian society whereby Islamization has paralysed resistance. It argues that in an incapacitated public sphere, resistance has to find new spaces and strategies. Drawing on theoretical innovations from inter-Asia paradigms and evidence of popular religious and artistic practices in urban Malaysia, it makes a case on silent resistance occurring at subterranean, every day and personal levels that reconfigures ethical traditions long in circulation in the (Southeast) Asian region as bearing promise for a renewal of radical politics. That this is so is due to their ability to recover transcultural and convivial pasts and render back a capacity for critical interrogation of hegemonic impositions on self and community. Such quiet practices show that radical politics has to begin with mindful self-transformations and that materiality, bodily experiences and performances are powerful vessels for the renewal of political consciousness and action.
