    The term Southeast Asia first appeared in the 1940s, as a military-political term during the Second World War . Much later the term was formalised through the publishing of several books specifically coining the term to refer to the region by former colonial civil servants working in the region. See for example: John Furnivall, Welfare and Progress in South-East Asia (1941) and Educational Progress in Southeast Asia (1941); Rupert Emerson, Lennox Mills and Virginia Thompson, Government and Nationalism in Southeast Asia (1944); Bruno Laser, Peoples of Southeast Asia (1944) and Human Bondage in Southeast Asia (1950); and the first attempt to write the history of the region by D.G.E Hall, A History of South-East Asia (1955). See also: Benedict Anderson (2004): 3–4 for discussion on the historal development of the term ‘Southeast Asia’.
