  • - An Ethnography of an Akha Village in Northern Thailand
    von Ma Chongwei
    89,95 €

    This book studies recent developments in immigration in one Akha village in northern Thailand by examining issues such as the coffee economy, ethnic relations, religious beliefs and cultural changes. The author demonstrates how their social structure and culture allow the immigrant population in this location to adapt to the demands of modernity by making constant adjustment to their tradition. The analysis sheds important light on how this marginal population manages to turn the tension between their participation in local politics and their identity as subjects of state governance into opportunities for growth. Instead of resorting to the art of not being governed, these immigrants have achieved a balance between preserving their distinctness and being governed in a modern nation-state, thereby creating greater space for their own survival and development.
