Early Modern Southeast Asia, 1350-1800/Editors, Ooi Keat Gin, Hoàng Anh Tuấn Early Modern Southeast Asia, 1350–1800 This book presents extensive new research findings on and new thinking about Southeast Asia in this interesting, richly diverse, but much understudied period. It examines the wide and well-developed trading networks, explores the different kinds of regimes and the nature of power and security, considers urban growth, international relations and the beginnings of European involve- ment with the region, and discusses religious factors, in particular the spread and impact of Christianity. One key theme of the book is the consideration of how well-developed Southeast Asia was before the onset of European involve- ment, and, how, during the peak of the commercial boom in the 1500s and 1600s, many polities in Southeast Asia were not far behind Europe in terms of socio-economic progress and attainments.

  • Sports in Pre-Modern and Early Modern Siam: Aggressive and Civilised Masculinities
    Sports in Pre-Modern and Early Modern Siam: Aggressive and Civilised Masculinities Charn Panarut A thesis submitted in fulfilment of The requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Sociology and Social Policy Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences The University of Sydney 2018 Statement of Authorship This dissertation is the copyrighted work of the author, Charn Panarut, and the University of Sydney. This thesis has not been previously submitted for any degree or other objectives. I certify that this thesis contains no documents previously written or published by anyone except where due reference is referenced in the dissertation itself. i Abstract This thesis is a contribution to two bodies of scholarship: first, the historical understanding of the modernisation process in Siam, and in particular the role of sport in the gradual pacification of violent forms of behaviour; second, one of the central bodies of scholarship used to analyse sport sociologically, the work of Norbert Elias and Eric Dunning on sport and the civilising process. Previous studies of the emergence of a more civilised form of behaviour in modern Siam highlight the imitation of Western civilised conducts in political and sporting contexts, largely overlooking the continued role of violence in this change in Siamese behaviour from the pre- modern to modern periods. This thesis examines the historical evidence which shows that, from around the 1900s, Siamese elites engaged in deliberate projects to civilise prevalent non-elites’ aggressive conducts. This in turn has implications for the Eliasian understanding of sports and civilising process, which emphasises their unplanned development alongside political and economic changes in Europe, at the expense of grasping the deliberate interventions of the Siamese elites.

  • Thai-Burmese Warfare During the Sixteenth Century and the Growth of the First Toungoo Empire1
    Thai-Burmese warfare during the sixteenth century 69 THAI-BURMESE WARFARE DURING THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY AND THE GROWTH OF THE FIRST TOUNGOO EMPIRE1 Pamaree Surakiat Abstract A new historical interpretation of the pre-modern relations between Thailand and Burma is proposed here by analyzing these relations within the wider historical context of the formation of mainland Southeast Asian states. The focus is on how Thai- Burmese warfare during the sixteenth century was connected to the growth and development of the first Toungoo empire. An attempt is made to answer the questions: how and why sixteenth century Thai-Burmese warfare is distinguished from previous warfare, and which fundamental factors and conditions made possible the invasion of Ayutthaya by the first Toungoo empire. Introduction As neighbouring countries, Thailand and Burma not only share a long border but also have a profoundly interrelated history. During the first Toungoo empire in the mid-sixteenth century and during the early Konbaung empire from the mid-eighteenth to early nineteenth centuries, the two major kingdoms of mainland Southeast Asia waged wars against each other numerous times. This warfare was very important to the growth and development of both kingdoms and to other mainland Southeast Asian polities as well. 1 This article is a revision of the presentations in the 18th IAHA Conference, Academia Sinica (December 2004, Taipei) and The Golden Jubilee International Conference (January 2005, Yangon). A great debt of gratitude is owed to Dr. Sunait Chutintaranond, Professor John Okell, Sarah Rooney, Dr. Michael W. Charney, Saya U Myint Thein, Dr. Dhiravat na Pombejra and Professor Michael Smithies.

Straddling the Chao Phraya River, the nation’s principal waterway, the province is extremely important, as it was the Siamese capital for four centuries. The city of Ayutthaya is 76 km. north of Bangkok and boasts numerous magnificent ruins from its days as the capital. Just to the south, in perfect condition, stands the royal palace of Bang Pa-in set in splendid gardens. The province is also noted for H.M. the Queen’s Bang Sai Arts and Crafts Centre. The ancient city of Ayutthaya, formally designated Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya was the Thai capital for 417 years, and is one of Thailand’s major tourist attractions. Many ancient ruins and art works can be seen in a city that was founded in 1350 by King U-Thong when the Thais were forced southwards by northern neighbours. During the period when Ayutthaya was capital, 33 kings and several dynasties ruled the kingdom, until the glittering city was sacked by the Burmese in 1767, ruined and abandoned. The extensive ruins and the historical records demonstrate that Ayutthaya was one of Southeast Asia’s most prosperous cities.

  • The Military Force of Toungoo Dynasty in the 16Th Century During the Burmese-Siamese War
    Journal of Literature and Art Studies, July 2021, Vol. 11, No. 7, 527-537 doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2021.07.012 D DAVID PUBLISHING The Military Force of Toungoo Dynasty in the 16th Century During the Burmese-Siamese War XING Cheng Northeastern University, Shenyang, Liaoning Province 110169, China Toungoo Dynasty was a powerful feudal regime in the history of Burma. Upon the rise of Toungoo Dynasty, it sought to extend territory by arms, starting to have wars with the Empire Ming (China), Ayutthaya Dynasty (Siam/Thailand) and Lan Xang (Laos). The war between Burma and Siam lasted for more than two centuries, from 1548 to 1810. However, from strategy view, the whole Burmese-Siamese War was the game between China (Ming and Qing Dynasties) and Burma (Toungoo and Konbaung Dynasties). In the whole process, most of the fierce battles took place in the 16th century, the inception phase of the war. So, the 16th century was a very important period for us if we want to have a research on the military force of Toungoo Dynasty. Keywords: Burma, Toungoo Dynasty, Tabinshwehti, Bayinnaung, Siam, Ayutthaya Dynasty Ⅰ Introduction Toungoo Dynasty was an important feudal regime in the history of Burma which was built by military means. This system deeply influenced the development of Burma. Until modern times, in Burma, military governments still appear now and then. In the 16th century, Burma had the best military potentials in Southeast Asia because of its special military system, letting it have the ability to mobilize a large army when the wars came. Benefiting from the Empire Ming’s conservative policy and the relatively weak military power of other Southeast Asian countries, Toungoo Dynasty rapidly started its expansion.

  • Politik Santri in Indonesia
    What is Political Islam? An Examination of its Theoretical Mapping in Modern Indonesia Bahtiar Effendy Introduction am not sure if remapping contemporary Indonesian Islam is any Imore urgent now than in the past –let us say twenty or thirty years ago. This is especially true if the reference point of the remapping is the general characterization of Indonesian Islam in modern times. The mid-forties or early fifties was a time when the archipelago was strug- gling to transform itself into a new state and because of that the gen- eral outlook of Indonesian Islam —other than the fact that it was a product of a relatively peaceful proselytization, signified by the will- What is Political Islam? ingness of its bearers (i.e. saint, merchant-da’i, etc.) to accommodate local culture — has always been associated with the country’s socio- cultural, economic, and political development. In that context, socio-religiously or theologically speaking, we have been accustomed to see Indonesian Islam in the light of tradition- alism versus modernism, syncreticism versus puritanism, and perhaps even orthodoxy versus heterodoxy. Politically speaking, the map of Indonesian Islam has shared a comparable complexity. The process of transforming Indonesia into a new state in the early until the mid- twentieth century resulted in many students of Indonesian Islam see- ing it in the light of nationalist versus religious group or santri versus abangan, outsider versus insider, secular versus Islamic, or structural versus cultural. Moving into the seventies and eighties it all came down to the deconfessionalized, domesticated, marginalized nature of Islam. De- feated ideologically, politically, bureaucratically, and electorally, but somehow one cannot say anything with certainty regarding the state of Indonesian Islam.
