| Meer info | "Tourist adverts and glossy publications present Thailand as an exotic country with a rich cultural heritage, strong religious traditions and a much-loved monarchy. Historians too have contributed to Thailand's international allure by asserting its unique historical and cultural continuity in comparison to the other countries of South-east Asia, whose modern histories are stained by colonialism and nationalist struggles for independence." "Thailand: The Worldly Kingdom challenges these commonplaces by offering a reinterpretation as well as an introduction to the emergence and development of the Thai nation-state. Maurizio Peleggi's original approach is reflected in the book's thematic structure, with chapters that investigate, among other issues, the modification of the geographical and ethno-linguist landscapes, changes in class and gender relations, the role of institutions and ideologies, the emergence of modern cultural expressions, social memory and the imagination of racial and cultural Others (Burmese, Chinese and Westerners) against which the Thai national self was asserted. Thailand: The Worldly Kingdom is a concise yet exceptional introduction to the myriad complexities that lie behind Thailand's blandly exotic facade." |
