Abstract

A little known history professor once argued that the colonization that took place in Southeast Asia during the nineteenth century occurred in fundamentally the same manner. colonial powers entered the country, subjugated the local people and exploited valuable resources for economic and political gain. In response, each nation rose up to throw off Western rulers. Although the professor's hypothesis is one that attempts to succinctly encapsulate the period of colonialism that occurred in Southeast Asia, the reality is that the development and evolution of colonialism as described by this professor was not as cohesive as this hypothesis makes it sound. In fact, as noted by SarDesai (1997) "The impact of colonial rule on the people varied from unashamedly exploitative to the benign and benevolent. It generated forces of industrialization, urbanization, modernization, intellectual ferment, and political ambition that inspired at least a small elite in each colony to abandon part of the traditional trappings and step into the modern age" (p. 141).With the realization that colonialism did not have a uniform impact on the development and evolution of countries in Southeast Asia, there is a clear impetus to examine some of the differences that manifested during this time period. To this end, this investigation considers the nationalist movements that took place in the philippines, indonesia and vietnam in an effort to overthrow colonial rule.
