Book Synopsis Peasant Pedlars and Professional Traders by : Ulrich Mai
Download or read book Peasant Pedlars and Professional Traders written by Ulrich Mai and published by Institute of Southeast Asian Studies. This book was released on 1987 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trading in the rural areas of developing countries provides a valuable source of cash income, especially for small and landless peasants. In a case study of the village of Kakas in the province of North Sulawesi, Indonesia, the authors depict the colourful market scene of a village pasar, the selling and buying strategies of traders and customers, and the characteristics of supply and demand. They also shed light on the often-neglected non-economic aspects of the pasar, such as its value for local communication and its role in the formation of a new sense of local identity and solidarity. By means of studies of trader households this book also scrutinizes how rural households combine petty trade with other income-generating activities such as cash-cropping, subsistence production, wage labour, and even work as a civil servant. The authors also show how petty trade, though highly efficient, may well be an indicator of underdevelopment.

Book Synopsis On the Edge of the Banda Zone by : Roy Ellen
Download or read book On the Edge of the Banda Zone written by Roy Ellen and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2003-08-31 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of the Indonesian spice trade on global and, more particularly, European history has been widely acknowledged. Although more recent studies have gone beyond the preoccupation with the colonial relationship to provide a more "Asiacentric" view, On the Edge of the Banda Zone is the first to focus an anthropological lens on the dynamics of trade in a specific area: that incorporating the Seram Laut and Gorom archipelagoes (and the adjacent mainland) of east Seram, in the Moluccas. The point of departure for Roy Ellen's analysis is a description of trade relations in the east Seram zone between 1970 and 1990, but the wider importance of the data presented here is readily apparent: For five hundred years (and probably much longer), it has served as a corridor between Eurasia and the southwestern Pacific and played a vital role in the production and distribution of nutmeg and other high-value commodities that have for centuries had an impact on the global economy. Drawing on the author’s fieldwork as well as archival and secondary sources, this ambitious, eclectic volume demonstrates the enduring continuities in the local system as it comes into contact with the changing outside world. It illuminates how barter, ecological and ethnic divisions of labor, exchange patterns, and the organization of trade between the peoples of the New Guinea coast and east Seram, help us make sense of long-term cycles and trends.
Book Synopsis Islamic Revivalism in a Changing Peasant Economy by : Christine Dobbin
Download or read book Islamic Revivalism in a Changing Peasant Economy written by Christine Dobbin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-11-10 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title, first published in 1983, is a significant study of one of the many revivalist movements which flowered in numerous Islamic societies in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, and attempts to provide one particular assessment of the place of revivalism in the evolution of Islamic societies. The subject of this title is the Padri movement, and the community involved is that of the Minangkabau of Central Sumatra, one of the major communities inhabiting the Indonesian archipelago. In the process of considering the reconstruction of a society in the throes of an agricultural transformation, the historical development of the Indonesian village became the object of attention, encompassing the economic and social histories of individual villages. This title will be of interest to students of history and Islamic Studies.

Book Synopsis Continuity, Change, and Aspirations by : Helmut Buchholt
Download or read book Continuity, Change, and Aspirations written by Helmut Buchholt and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume on social and economic change in Minahasa is an attempt to make up for the remarkable lack of regional studies on Indonesia. Minahasa has the reputation of being economically and socially more advanced than other outer island regions of the country. Hence, an in-depth regional study, despite obvious individual characteristics of the area, shows development trends for most parts of Indonesia. Based on extensive empirical field-work in rural Minahasa, the research findings presented in this book add to a wide and colourful picture of the various aspects of the modernization process, with its peculiar mix of continuity, change, and social aspirations. The collection of articles contains relevant information for students and researchers with an interest in village politics, religious life, women's role in rural development, and the impact of state ideology on development."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
