This scholarly work investigates how Western imperial powers utilized racial frameworks to shape governance and justify colonial expansion across the Nusantara region, encompassing modern-day Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. By examining historical records, administrative policies, and scientific theories from Spanish, Dutch, British, and American administrations, the author highlights how institutionalized racial categories disrupted traditional indigenous identities and fragmented the historical interconnectedness of local societies.
