The Malaysian 'Islamic' state versus the Islamic state (IS) : evolving definitions of 'Terror' in an 'Islamising' nation-state by Chan, Nicholas Wai Yeap

“…Akin to a case of semantic acrobatics, we demonstrate how the Malaysian state securitised (1980-2001), normalised (2001-2013), and resecuritised (2014 onwards) the term as a result of a balancing act which not only aimed at neutralising the elements of militancy, but also to augment the state's ' Islamic ' credentials in a bid to outplay its major Islamist opponent, the Pan Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS). At the end, following the emergence of a transnational insurgent/quasi-state/ terrorist/ideology hybrid, the Islamic State (IS), we argue that the Malaysian state is now embroiled in an ' Islamic state versus Islamic State' trap, where the state after appropriating and normalising the ' Islamic state' ideal, has no choice but to contend with what is fundamentally a ' terrorist' group (by the state's own definition) in religious terms. …”
