Encountering The Globalizing West
The author seeks to set forth a Malay Islamic view of civilisation that he claims comes from a different standpoint than the globalising force of the West. One essential difference that he sees is Malay Islamic culture’s emphasis on ‘the perfection of the human soul’ rather than scientific and technological progress.
