Download or read book Ten Southeast Asian Tribes from Five Countries written by David Howard and published by Last Gasp. This book was released on 2008 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sensitive and personal portrayal featuring 889 pictures of ten tribes from Thailand, Laos, Burma, Vietnam and the Philippines. This original and innovative book embodies traditions that have evolved over thousands of years and which are slowly vanishing. A lavish production and an invaluable historical record that combines anthropology and popular culture. "I chose to dedicate these pictures and stories to the tribes people themselves, in the hope that their way of life and works of art can be preserved through the protection afforded through public recognition. I offer this book as a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, recognizing in the lives of these tribes that essential strength resides, and the endurance of their culture is insured."--David Howard, in the Dedication

Download or read book Southeast Asian Tribes Minorities and Nations Volume 1 written by Peter Kunstadter and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-14 with total page 533 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major source of political instability in Southeast Asia has been ethnic diversity and the lack of congruence between ethnic distributions and national boundaries. Here twenty specialists base their papers largely on original field work in Burma, China, India, Laos, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam. Contrary to the usual picture of tribal people as isolated, homogeneous, stable, and conservative, the papers show tribesmen are often a dynamic force in the modern history of Southeast Asian states. Descriptions of tribal life and government programs, together with charts, tables, maps, and photographs give a wealth of data. Originally published in 1967.

Download or read book Southeast Asian Personalities of Chinese Descent Glossary and index written by Leo Suryadinata and published by Institute of Southeast Asian Studies. This book was released on 2012 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a bold project recording the lives of a particular group of Southeast Asians. Most of the people whose biographies are included here have settled down in the ten countries that constitute the region. Each of them has either self-identified as Chinese or is comfortable to be known as someone of Chinese ancestry. There are also those who were born in China or elsewhere who came here to work and do business, including seeking help from others who have ethnic Chinese connections. With the political and economic conditions of the region in a great state of flux for the past two centuries, it is impossible to find consistency in the naming process. Confucius had stressed that correct names make for the best relationships. In this case, Professor Leo Suryadinata has been pursuing for decades the elusive goal of finding the right name to give to the large numbers of people who have, in one way or another, made their homes in, or made some difference to, Southeast Asia. I believe that, when he and his colleagues selected the biographies to be included here, they have taken a big step towards the rectification of identities for many leading personalities. In so doing, he has done us all a great service. - Professor Wang Gungwu, National University of Singapore
