By extrapolating through Islam and the \u003cem\u003ewaqf\u003c\/em\u003e (Islamic charity) in different regions of Thailand the diversity in races and institutions, it demonstrates the regional contrast within Thai Islam. The book also underlines the importance of internal histories of these separate spaces, and the processes by which institutions and ideologies become entrenched. It goes on to look at the socio economic transformation that is taking place within the context of trading networks through Islamic institutions and civil networks linked to mosques, madrasas and regional power brokers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rajeswary Ampalavanar Brown\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/04\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.69d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415825894\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRajeswary Ampalavanar Brown\u003c\/strong\u003e is an Emeritus Professor at the Royal Holloway College in London, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43232716062835,"sku":"9.78042E+12","price":339.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_74038576-56b9-46c2-ae7a-98f5969d9da2.jpg?v=1754050154","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/islam-in-modern-thailand-faith-philanthropy-and-politics-9780415825894","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
