		In adopting this approach, we are aware that we are imposing, post facto, the Procrustrean paradigm of the nation-state and its imagined uniformities upon a disparate, historically undifferentiated archipelago that stretches from the Straits of Malacca to the Luzon Strait.
		The regions is Southeas Asia, the crescent is East Asia; and the rim is Asia Pacific.

	HISTORY 221 – MODERN SOUTHEAST ASIA 1870-1990s:
		It is this sense of nationalism that has remained an influential force in Southeast Asian politics; the very nature of the Southeast Asian countries has meant that creating a sense of nationalism is an important task for the various governments.
		Such a mixture of policies is mirrored throughout Southeast Asia, as respective governments attempt all possible ways in which to create a national sense of unity.
		Recent expansion of ASEAN to include all established Southeast Asian nations could be seen as evidence that nationalist policies have succeeded to some extent, and more emphasis is now being placed upon creating an identity as a region as a whole, as Southeast Asia attempts to become an important player in world affairs.

	The Cambridge History of Southeast Asia (Nicholas Tarling)
		The Cambridge History of Southeast Asia is a serious attempt at regional history: though many of the twenty contributors are specialists venturing into a broader realm, none of the chapters are country-specific and they only resort to iterative examination of countries where unavoidable.
		While it's no replacement for the many one-volume histories of Southeast Asia available, it will be a useful resource for readers who want more than those can offer, but don't want to start immediately on more specialised studies.
		The Cambridge History of Southeast Asia was originally published in 1992 in two hardcover volumes; this reissue as four paperbacks, with individual volumes priced at barely more than paperback novels, makes it much more accessible.

		The arrival of the Europeans, initially the Spanish and the Portuguese, did manage to enforce the conversion of the people of the Northern and Central Philippines to Christianity but elsewhere the growth of Islam was not stemmed.
