Title: | Alternative narratives : why i wrote it | Authors: | Ong, Wei Chong | Keywords: | DRNTU::Social sciences | Issue Date: | 2010 | Source: | Ong, W. C. (2010). Alternative narratives : why i wrote it. (RSIS Commentaries, No. 118). RSIS Commentaries. Singapore: Nanyang Technological University. | Series/Report no.: | RSIS Commentaries ; 118/10 | Abstract: | IN RESPONSE to Hong Lysa’s remarks on my RSIS Commentary on Alternative Narratives: The Danger of Romanticising the Other published on 14 September, I would like to clarify three issues of contention: history as a practice; the writing of alternative narratives; and the crux of her argument. At no point did my article suggest that any Singapore-based academics were engaged in the romanticisation of violent revolutionaries. My commentary was premised not on any unfounded innuendos but on the perils of romanticising the exploits of violent revolutionaries that threatened the security of Malaysia and Singapore from 1968 to 1989. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/91697 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/6633 |
