Book Amazons of the Huk Rebellion

Download or read book Amazons of the Huk Rebellion written by Vina A. Lanzona and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 2009-04-22 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Labeled “Amazons” by the national press, women played a central role in the Huk rebellion, one of the most significant peasant-based revolutions in modern Philippine history. As spies, organizers, nurses, couriers, soldiers, and even military commanders, women worked closely with men to resist first Japanese occupation and later, after WWII, to challenge the new Philippine republic. But in the midst of the uncertainty and violence of rebellion, these women also pursued personal lives, falling in love, becoming pregnant, and raising families, often with their male comrades-in-arms. Drawing on interviews with over one hundred veterans of the movement, Vina A. Lanzona explores the Huk rebellion from the intimate and collective experiences of its female participants, demonstrating how their presence, and the complex questions of gender, family, and sexuality they provoked, ultimately shaped the nature of the revolutionary struggle. Winner, Kenneth W. Baldridge Prize for the best history book written by a resident of Hawaii, sponsored by Brigham Young University–Hawaii

Download or read book Cultures at War written by Tony Day and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-06 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cold War in Southeast Asia was a many-faceted conflict, driven by regional historical imperatives as much as by the contest between global superpowers. The essays in this book offer the most detailed and probing examination to date of the cultural dimension of the Cold War in Southeast Asia. Southeast Asian culture from the late 1940s to the late 1970s was primarily shaped by a long-standing search for national identity and independence, which took place in the context of intense rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union, with the Peoples' Republic of China emerging in 1949 as another major international competitor for influence in Southeast Asia. Based on fieldwork in Burma, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam, the essays in this collection analyze the ways in which art, literature, film, theater, spectacle, physical culture, and the popular press represented Southeast Asian responses to the Cold War and commemorated that era's violent conflicts long after tensions had subsided. Southeast Asian cultural reactions to the Cold War involved various solutions to the dilemmas of the newly independent nation-states of the region. What is common to all of the perspectives and works examined in this book is that they expressed social and aesthetic concerns that both antedated and outlasted the Cold War, ones that never became simply aligned with the ideologies of either bloc.

Book Women Warriors in Southeast Asia

Download or read book Women Warriors in Southeast Asia written by Vina A. Lanzona and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-01-07 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together a wide range of case studies to explore the experiences and significance of women warriors in Southeast Asian history from ancient to contemporary times. Using a number of sources, including royal chronicles, diaries, memoirs and interviews, the book discusses why women warriors were active in a domain traditionally preserved for men, and how they arguably transgressed peacetime gender boundaries as agents of violence. From multidisciplinary perspectives, the chapters assess what drove women to take on a variety of roles, namely palace guards, guerrillas and war leaders, and to what extent their experiences were different to those of men. The reader is taken on an almost 1,500-year long journey through a crossroads region well-known for the diversity of its peoples and cultures, but also their ability to creatively graft foreign ideas onto existing ones. The book also explores the re-integration of women into post-conflict Southeast Asian societies, including the impact (or lack thereof) of newly established international norms, and the frequent turn towards pre-conflict gender roles in these societies. Written by an international team of scholars, this book will be of interest to academics working on Southeast Asian Studies, Gender Studies, low-intensity conflicts and revolutions, and War, Conflict, and Peace Studies.

Book Guerillas  a History and Analysis

Download or read book Guerillas a History and Analysis written by Arthur Campbell and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guerrilla warfare is the warfare of today. It is either resorted to by the weak because circumstances prevent them from deploying regular armed forces, or adopted by the strong to enable them to achieve political aims without the terrifying risks, imposed by nuclear weapons, of all-out warfare. This is the first book to cover the whole development of modern guerrilla warfare from its inception in Spain in 1808 to the time of writing. Lt. Col. Arthur Campbell, who was himself engaged against guerrillas in three widely different campaigns, takes the major guerrilla wars of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and treats them one by one. His separate accounts are linked by a series of narratives which keep the reader abreast with the various developments of this form of fighting. Many of the stories are told in the first person as if by a participant, others are given more objective treatment, but each is a gripping account of courage and cruelty, of barbarity and bravery, and of extreme endeavor. By his treatment Arthur Campbell has covered every aspect of guerrilla fighting, from the theories and practices of such eminent authorities as Marx and Mao to the individual actions and emotions of men and women engaged on the battlefields, either as guerrillas or counter-guerrillas. The effect on participants of both national and international politics is clearly shown, as is the vital importance of the approach to people's hearts and minds. In his closing chapters the author draws conclusions from the past. These chapters in effect summarize the essential ingredients of success in both guerrilla and counter-guerrilla warfare.--Adaptd frmo book jacket.
