Bücher von D.R. SarDesai

SarDesai provides new insights on the decision-making process in Hanoi and Washington D.C. during the Vietnam conflict. Updated and expanded in the 4th edition to cover the most recent events and issues facing Vietnam, as well as providing greater depth of coverage to primary historical material.

The second edition retains the most popular readings from the first edition, while replacing some of the historical chapters, updating the contemporary and recent coverage, and adding new readings to pertinent subject areas. Southeast Asian History: Essential Readings provides valuable context and critical background to events of this region.

A thoroughly updated collection providing a balance of countries, eras, and perspectives in Southeast Asian history

Updated to include recent events and new insights, SarDesai argues that the quest for national identity is a recurring theme throughout two millennia of Vietnamese history, and this nationalism fuels Vietnamese struggles against France, the United States, and China.
