Written by two experienced teachers with a long history of
research, this textbook provides students with a detailed overview
of developments in early modern Southeast Asia, when the region
became tightly integrated into the world economy because of
international demand for its unique forest and sea products.
Proceeding chronologically, each chapter covers a specific time
frame in which Southeast Asia is located in a global context. A
discussion of general features that distinguish the period under
discussion is followed by a detailed account of the various
sub-regions. Students will be shown the ways in which local
societies adapted to new religious and political ideas and
responded to far-reaching economic changes. Particular attention is
given to lesser-known societies that inhabited the seas, the
forests, and the uplands, and to the role of the geographical
environment in shaping the region's history. The authoritative yet
accessible narrative features maps, illustrations, and timelines to
support student learning. A major contribution to the field, this
text is essential reading for students and specialists in Asian
studies and early modern world history.
