257pp, index, paperback. "The impact of the processes of cultural, economic and institutional transformation typically defined as "modernising" have been prevasive in Indonesia and Malaysia over an extended period of time, and have played a central role in shaping the cultures, societies, economics and polities of both countries. The authors in this book engage critically with the concept of modernity, considering the way it has been used in the analysis of economic, political, and cultural processes, and conclude that while Indonesia and Malaysia can both be described as fully modern, their modernities are not merely derivative of the Western understanding of the word. The place and character of modernity appear differently if a local rather than a Western perspective is adopted, and any analysis of the two countries must reflect an understanding of these differences. Written by scholars from both "inside" and "outside" the region, the case studies presented this volume highlight the extent to which the intellectual tools, concepts, and theories commonly used in academic research reflect a European/Western modernist imaginary, and show how the process of conducting social research in Asia might be reconceptualized on the basis of a revised understanding of modernity. In presenting their case that the application of a supposedly 'Western' concept such as modernity to the study of Asia needs to be re-assessed, the authors pose questions relevant to theories of modernity and the study of non-Western societies generally."

Condition: New. Wendy Mee is Senior Lecturer and Sociology Program Convenor at La Trobe University, Melbourne.Cross-border Mobility: Women, Work and Malay Identity in Indonesia offers a fresh perspective on the association between mobility and the ethnocultural categor.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Cross-border Mobility: Women, Work and Malay Identity in Indonesia offers a fresh perspective on the association between mobility and the ethnocultural category 'Malay'. In so doing, it raises new research questions that are relevant to the study of Indonesian women's socioeconomic mobility more generally. Based on fieldwork in Sambas, a region of Indonesia bordering Malaysia, this study documents the ethnocultural consequences of the highly mobile working lives of Sambas Malay women. Emphasising the significance of territorial borders in women's working lives, this study highlights how women's border location not only facilitates cross-border pathways of international labour migration and trade, but also generates feelings of peripherality that inform women's imaginative construction of other, nonterritorial borders that need to be crossed. Shaped by social class, gender, and the economic and cultural possibilities of political decentralization, the study identifies three borderscopes that orient women's work-related mobility and create diverse outcomes for the ethnocultural category 'Sambas Malay'. This book offers a fresh perspective on the association between mobility and the ethnocultural category 'Malay'. This study documents the broader cultural consequences of Indonesian Malay women's work-related mobility on the practice and understanding of what it means to be Malay. In so doing, the book: Provides a rare investigation into the ethnocultural effects of Indonesian women's mobility (i.e, in term of the way women's mobility reconfigures ethnic identifications). Critically addresses the historically-informed assumption that Malay men, through their mobility, are the carriers of Malayness, Islamic reform, and modernity Deepens our appreciation of the significance of gendered forms of mobility across territorial and non-territorial borders to the construction of identity Provides a borderlands perspective on women's independent labour migration in a part of West Kalimantan where studies of women's labour migration remain scarce.…
