Global Studies- Southeast Asian Transformations – Urban and Rural Developments in the 21st Century Urban and Rural Developments in the 21st Century

Southeast Asia from multiple perspectives: covering the most important trajectories of development in the new millennium.

Southeast Asia is one of the most dynamic regions in the world. This volume offers a timely approach to Southeast Asian Studies, covering recent transitions in the realms of urbanism, rural development, politics, and media. While most of the contributions deal with the era of post-independence, some tackle the colonial period and the resulting developments. The volume also includes insights from Southern India.

As a tribute to the interdisciplinary project of Southeast Asian Studies, this book brings together authors from disciplines as diverse as area studies, sociology, history, geography, and journalism.
