Tracing Malaysia's political economy since 1800, Abdillah Noh argues that it has been substantially path-dependant based on choices made by the British colonial administration.
Focusing mainly on two major groupings in Malaysia's political economy - the Malays and Chinese Malaysians - Noh demonstrates that British policies engendered two processes. First, a less-than-full-retrenchment of Malay political dominance by preserving Malay de jure power and, second a less-than-full incorporation of new actors in Malaya's political economy. Such decisions to preserve Malay de jure power alongside half-hearted measures at incorporating non-Malays' economic and political presence created communities with mutually exclusive institutions that increasingly compete for access to political, social and economic resources. He thus reasons that Malaysia's state formation - and the consequent consociational logic - is not a contrived act that was hatched at the point of its independence. Rather, it is the result of deep institutional processes that are centred on the idea of path dependence, self- reinforcement mechanism, timing and sequence.
A valuable read for scholars of Malaysian history and politics, as well as for scholars of postcolonial state formation and public policy more broadly.
Abdillah Noh is an Associate Professor at the Department of History and International Studies, Universiti Brunei Darussalam. He works in the area of institutions and institutional change. His recent book is on "Issues in Public Policy and Administration in Malaysia: An Institutional Analysis."
