Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the acclaimed author and scholar James C. Scott, the compelling tale of Asian peoples who until recently have stemmed the vast tide of state-making to live at arm’s length from any organized state society For two thousand years the disparate groups that now reside in Zomia (a mountainous region the size of Europe that consists of portions of seven Asian countries) have fled the projects of the organized state societies that surround them—slavery, conscription, taxes, corvée labor, epidemics, and warfare. This book, essentially an “anarchist history,” is the first-ever examination of the huge literature on state-making whose author evaluates why people would deliberately and reactively remain stateless. Among the strategies employed by the people of Zomia to remain stateless are physical dispersion in rugged terrain; agricultural practices that enhance mobility; pliable ethnic identities; devotion to prophetic, millenarian leaders; and maintenance of a largely oral culture that allows them to reinvent their histories and genealogies as they move between and around states. In accessible language, James Scott, recognized worldwide as an eminent authority in Southeast Asian, peasant, and agrarian studies, tells the story of the peoples of Zomia and their unlikely odyssey in search of self-determination. He redefines our views on Asian politics, history, demographics, and even our fundamental ideas about what constitutes civilization, and challenges us with a radically different approach to history that presents events from the perspective of stateless peoples and redefines state-making as a form of “internal colonialism.” This new perspective requires a radical reevaluation of the civilizational narratives of the lowland states. Scott’s work on Zomia represents a new way to think of area studies that will be applicable to other runaway, fugitive, and marooned communities, be they Gypsies, Cossacks, tribes fleeing slave raiders, Marsh Arabs, or San-Bushmen.

This publication documents Asia's progress in regional cooperation and integration. It covers the 48 regional members of the Asian Development Bank and analyzes regional as well as global economic linkages. The 2018 report's special chapter Toward Optimal Provision of Regional Public Goods in Asia and the Pacific examines how collective action among countries can help find solutions to growing transnational development challenges. The special chapter also discusses how to best provide regional public goods that transcend the so-called collective action problem which occurs when individual interests are too weak on their own to drive cooperation on common issues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of West Indian immigrants to the United States is generally considered to be a great success. Mary Waters, however, tells a very different story. She finds that the values that gain first-generation immigrants initial success--a willingness to work hard, a lack of attention to racism, a desire for education, an incentive to save--are undermined by the realities of life and race relations in the United States. Contrary to long-held beliefs, Waters finds, those who resist Americanization are most likely to succeed economically, especially in the second generation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After emerging from the tumult of social movements of the 1960s and 1970s, the field of Asian American studies has enjoyed rapid and extraordinary growth. Nonetheless, many aspects of Asian American history still remain open to debate. The Oxford Handbook of Asian American History offers the first comprehensive commentary on the state of the field, simultaneously assessing where Asian American studies came from and what the future holds. In this volume, thirty leading scholars offer original essays on a wide range of topics. The chapters trace Asian American history from the beginning of the migration flows toward the Pacific Islands and the American continent to Japanese American incarceration and Asian American participation in World War II, from the experience of exclusion, violence, and racism to the social and political activism of the late twentieth century. The authors explore many of the key aspects of the Asian American experience, including politics, economy, intellectual life, the arts, education, religion, labor, gender, family, urban development, and legal history. The Oxford Handbook of Asian American History demonstrates how the roots of Asian American history are linked to visions of a nation marked by justice and equity and to a deep effort to participate in a global project aimed at liberation. The contributors to this volume attest to the ongoing importance of these ideals, showing how the mass politics, creative expressions, and the imagination that emerged during the 1960s are still relevant today. It is an unprecedentedly detailed portrait of Asian Americans and how they have helped change the face of the United States.

Download or read book Refugees as Immigrants written by David W. Haines and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 1989 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to provide the reader with access to an important body of information taken from surveys on the initial adaptation of South East Asian refugees to the United States. The material, devided into eight chapters with numerous tables, is an extension of the findings presented at a panel on the experiences of South East Asian refugees, held in May 1986 at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. The book, according to the editor, serves as an introduction to a specific kind of research on the adaptation of these refugees as one recent set of immigrants to the United States. The introductory chapter gives some general characteristics of the immigrant population, the contexts of refugee adaptation, and an overview of research on South East Asian refugees. Chapter 2 describes the annual surveys sponsored by the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) and its predecessors, especially those between 1981 and 1985. Chapter 3, entitled 'Differential reference group assimilation among Vietnamese refugees', reports the findings of a three-year panel study of Vietnamese refugees conducted from 1978 to 1981 in Northern California and the central Gulf Coast. Two other chapters deal with the period 1975-1979, concentrating on adaptation within specific areas of the United States. A separate chapter describes a survey of Indo-Chinese refugees in San Diego, California, between 1975 and 1981. Another survey concentrates on the general pattern of refugee achievement, the socio-cultural basis for the economic and educational success of South East Asian refugees. The last chapter gives the result of a comprehensive longitudinal study by the Indochinese Health and Adaptation Research Project (IHARP) in San Diego, California. It encompasses the major 'waves' from 1975 to 1983 and all of the main ethnocultural groups of South East Asian refugees in the United States. It includes sections on English proficiency, occupational adaptation, economic adaptation, health status, psychological adaptation, economic self-sufficiency, education, fertility and adaptation, and depression and adaptation.

Students of trends, policymakers, entrepreneurs, academics, journalists and anyone eager for a glimpse into the next decades, will find this report, with colored graphs, essential reading.
