The essays in it look back at the years of uncertainty after the end of World War II and explore the period largely through images of mixed heritages in Malaysia and Singapore. They also look at the trends towards social and political divisiveness following the years of decolonization in Southeast Asia. Never far in the background is the struggle to build new nations during four decades of an ideological Cold War and the Chinese determination to move from near-collapse in the 1940s and out of the traumatic changes of the Maoist revolution to become the powerhouse that it now is. 606 $aChinese$zMalaya 606 $aChinese$zSingapore 606 $aPeranakan (Asian people)$zMalaya 606 $aChinese$zMalaysia$xEthnic identity 606 $aChinese$zSingapore$xEthnic Identity 607 $aMalaysia$xRelations$zChina 607 $aSingapore$xRelations$zChina 615 0$aChinese 615 0$aChinese 615 0$aPeranakan (Asian people) 615 0$aChinese$xEthnic identity. 615 0$aChinese$xEthnic Identity. 676 $a959.5004951 700 $aWang$b Gungwu$0638561 712 02$aISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute, 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910793194603321 996 $aNanyang$93748681 997 $aUNINA
