The Orang Asli and the Contest for Resources: Indigenous Politics, Development and Identity in Peninsular Malaysia by Colin Nicholas offers a comprehensive analysis of the struggles faced by the Orang Asli, the Indigenous peoples of Peninsular Malaysia, as they navigate complex socio-political landscapes. The book examines the historical and contemporary challenges surrounding land rights, resource control, and development policies that often marginalize these communities. Nicholas delves into how state-led modernization projects and economic interests have encroached upon Orang Asli lands, threatening their livelihoods and cultural heritage.
The book also explores the political dynamics at play, highlighting the Orang Asli’s fight for recognition, self-determination, and the preservation of their identity in the face of assimilation pressures. Through a blend of historical context, ethnographic insights, and policy analysis, Nicholas sheds light on the broader implications of Indigenous rights in a rapidly developing Malaysia. The work serves as both a scholarly contribution and a call to action, advocating for more inclusive and equitable policies that respect Indigenous land rights and cultural autonomy.
