520			_aTHE OMINOUS MARCH of events in Asia since the outbreak of the Korean war has served to heighten the public interest in the older and more massive growth of Asian nationalism, and more recently in the relationship between nationalist and Communist movements in the Far East. The importance of those movements for Asia and for the Western world has become all too plain and fortunately is now much more widely recognized by political leaders and the general public than it was even in October 1950 when many aspects of Asian nationalism were considered at the Eleventh Conference of the Institute of Pacific Relations at Lucknow, India. The present volume is intended to serve as something more than the Proceedings of that conference, though it does include the summaries of the round-table discussions. Three of the more important documents prepared for the conference have ubsequently been revised and enlarged. They provide useful illustrations, and different facets, of the development of nationalist movements in a British colony (Malaya), a former French colony (Vietnam) and a former Dutch colony (Indonesia), each being at a different stage of political evolution and subjected to differing external forces.
