In contrast, Partha Chatterjee, from a postcolonial perspective , understood very well the partiality of the project of nation-building, an d how the interests of certain ethnic and religious communities, even if th ey are imbibed as part of the nation, may be marginalized in the national i maginary.\n\nIn this vein, these ethnic and religious communities are under stood as minorities – not because of their lesser numbers, but because of t heir lesser positions within the nation. We propose a double-session panel to examine and compare the condition of ethnic and religious minorities acr oss different parts of postcolonial Southeast Asia. Ethnic minorities can i nclude Chinese, Indians, Rohingyas and other historically migrant communiti es brought to Southeast Asia by colonial fiat, or indigenous communities do minated by new postcolonial political masters. Religious minorities can inc lude groups in nondominant positions, such as Christians in Malaysia and Mu slims in the Philippines, or minor sects within dominant religious communit ies, such as the Ahmadiyah and Shi’a communities in Indonesia. In comparing these minority groups across postcolonial Southeast Asia, the panel will s eek to deconstruct the experience and meaning of being minorities, and arti culate the multi-vocality of postcolonial nationstates.
