| dc.description.abstract | The study investigates the development of institutions under the madrasah pattern and other institutions established on the basis of madrasah system from the 1930s until 1990s. Madrasahs in the South of Thailand were influenced by madrasahs of the Haramayn which had developed since the late 19th century. However, the first generation madrasahs (1930s-1940s) could not last long due to government pressures. The development of madrasah in Bangkok and nearby provinces had begun earlier in the 191 Os. They expanded in the following decades to follow closely the government policies while some of them were taken over by the government. The second generation madrasahs (1950s-1960s) had grown rapidly throughout Pattani, Yala and Narathiwat through graduates of the Haramayn especially from Madrasah Dar a!- 'Ulum and Madrasah Indonesia. It was from these second generation madrasahs that the Islamic Private School came about in the 1960s and thereafter while others managed to keep their status quo. The success of madrasah could be seen by the late 1960s through the establishment of the Tadika and other institutions including the Ku/lij;ah, Madrasah Tahjiz al-Qur'an and Dar al- 'Aitam. The government response towards their development had begun in the early 20th century when the old Patani Kingdom was integrated into the Thai state. The government also made education as the major tool for national integration. The government response to Malay-Muslim educational institutions was through different approaches ranging from giving closer attention to Malay-Muslim students in the Haramayn and Cairo to cooperating with their parents in Thailand to gather the relevant information. The government also run various programmes to attract Malay-Muslim children to attend government schools and attempted to establish the higher Islamic educational institution in Thailand. The development of Malay-Muslim educational institutions showed a historical continuity even though Pattani, Y ala and Narathiwat had been integrated into the Thai state for over a century. A major agenda behind the establishment of all types of educational institutions is to maintain religious knowledge as well as to preserve their Malay identity as long as possible. | en_US |
