Paperback. Condición: New. In the early 1970s, the Khmer Rouge had become suspicious of communist Vietnam and began to persecute Cambodian ethnic groups who had ties to the country, including the Brao Amba in the northeast. Many fled north as political refugees, and some joined the Vietnamese effort to depose the Khmer Rouge a few years later. The subsequent ten-year occupation is remembered by many Cambodians as a time of further oppression, but this volume reveals an unexpected dimension of this troubled past. Trusted by the Vietnamese, the Brao were installed in positions of great authority in the new government only to gradually lose their influence when Vietnam withdrew from Cambodia.Based on detailed research and interviews, Ian G. Baird documents this golden age of the Brao, including the voices of those who are too frequently omitted from official records. Rise of the Brao challenges scholars to look beyond the prevailing historical narratives to consider the nuanced perspectives of peripheral or marginal regions.…

Maps, colour photographic plates, xxvi + 435pp, notes, bibliography, index. People, Livelihoods and Development in the Xekong River Basin of Laos is a wide-ranging study that provides an overview of the area's history and geography as well as the cultures and local livelihood systems of the multiethnic people living there. Central to the study is a detailed description of the acute social, cultural, economic and ecological challenges locals are facing as a result of the rapid changes now taking place in the region. While these changes are being made in the name of 'development', in reality they often involve conflicts between outsiders and local communities over the use of the area's natural resources. Taking a critical political ecology approach, the authors examine the complicated links between livelihoods and development. The book provides a sobering picture of the potential vulnerability of local cultures, livelihood systems and the natural environment to be negatively impacted, were uncontrolled globalization and outside market forces to continue to radically transform the Xekong River Basin.…

Hardback. Condición: New. The Kingdom of Champassak was founded in 1713 in what is now southern Laos, and its royal lineage, the House of Champassak, continues to the present. In this first historical study of Champassak, Ian Baird explores the ways it has asserted its sovereignty across time and through monumental historical shifts, including the delineation of national boundaries for Laos, Thailand, and Cambodia in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. In re-creating this story, Baird draws not only on a dazzling variety of primary sources in English, French, Lao, and Thai but also on many years spent in conversation with members of the Na Champassak family, who are now spread across a wide geographical area, from Laos and Thailand to France and the United States. Each chapter treats one historical period, identifying the Champassak approach to sovereignty during that time. Through this deep history, Baird shows how sovereign power, even within one case, takes a wide range of forms, always contingent, contested, and uneven across space and time.…
