While this was a celebratory event acknowledging the role of the People’s Action Party (PAP) government, it was also marked by national remembrance as founding Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew died in March 2015.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"799\" data-end=\"1573\"\u003eThis book critically reflects on Singapore’s 50 years of independence. Contributors interrogate a selected range of topics on Singapore’s history, culture, and society – including the constitution, education, religion, and race – and thereby facilitate a better understanding of its shared national past. Central to this book is an examination of how Singaporeans have learnt to adapt and change through PAP government policies since independence in 1965. All chapters begin their histories from that point in time and each contribution focuses either on an area that has been neglected in Singapore’s modern history or offers new perspectives on the past. Using a multi-disciplinary approach, it presents an independent and critical take on Singapore’s post-1965 history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1575\" data-end=\"1759\"\u003eA valuable assessment for students and researchers alike, \u003cstrong data-start=\"1633\" data-end=\"1688\"\u003eSingapore: Negotiating State and Society, 1965-2015\u003c\/strong\u003e is of interest to specialists in Southeast Asian history and politics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ROUTLEDGE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49870394097968,"sku":"Sarat_9781138998650","price":4680.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/routledge-book-default-title-singapore-negotiating-state-and-society-1965-2015-politics-in-asia-41066634051888.jpg?v=1775942838","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/singapore-negotiating-state-and-society-1965-2015-politics-in-asia","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
