The Malayan Emergency: Essays On A Small, Distant War
Author: Publisher: MAINSTREAM history – not to mention fiction, and movies and TV shows – has many narratives about the Cold War in Europe. Less well known is the fact that one of the first conflicts of the Cold War happened in this country. The Malayan Emergency was a guerrilla war fought between British Commonwealth armed forces and communist insurgents in Malaya from 1948 to 1960. Anthropologist Souchou Yao tells this conflict’s story in a series of essays covering everything from the struggles of ordinary people in colonial Malaya to the effect counterinsurgency measures had on them. Among the vignettes are an encounter with a woman ex-guerilla and Yao’s recollection of how his cousin was killed in a police ambush. This is a fresh look at the Emergency that shines the spotlight on failed revolution, ethnic relations, and the costs of modern counterinsurgency.
