dc.description.abstractRelations between Islam, the state, law, politics and society in Malaysia are complex and in recent times have become increasingly contentious. They are currently a source of fundamental and growing concern in multi-religious Malaysia. The post-colonial experience of Malaysia as a multi-ethnic and religiously plural society highlights a fundamental challenge: how to ensure the institutional separation of the Shari'a and the state while at the same time recognizing the powerful way that Islam shapes the personal identities and socio-political understanding of so many Muslims, including their views of the connection between Islam, politics and law. This paper reflects on the critical political and socio-legal developments in Peninsular Malaysia within the last 50 years that have affected the status and role of Islam and shari'a in the making or crafting of the independent, multi-religious Malaysian nation. It is also a discussion of the trajectory of the politics of "Islam and the secular state" and its repercussion on citizenship, national identity, and the project of "Bangsa Malaysia" post Vision 2020.en_US
