Raktažodžiai:
The substantive regulations and legal institutions through which the state manages the religions of its Malay minority in contemporary Singapore are the focus of this volume. Through a detailed account of positive law and related religious and social institutions, Lindsey and Steiner explore the balance that the Singaporean government seeks to maintain between its obligations to an indigenous Muslim minority and the needs of its majority non-Muslim immigrant community.

Recenzijos

'This book provides a much needed update to the field of Islamic Law in Singapore. It is extremely well researched and provides thoughtful analysis. It will be an important contribution to the existing literature, especially as it seamlessly combines together in one resource an historical perspective, significant views of other authors and the well-informed perspectives of its editors.' Professor Andrew White, Director of the International Islamic Law and Finance Centre, Singapore Management University.
