Presenting the results of seventeen months of field research,
conducted entirely in the Thai language, this study describes and
compares the patterns of social exchange of two groups of Thai
officials: district-level bureaucrats and physicians in a
provincial hospital. Dr. Haas uses a unique combination of
anthropological field data and survey research. He is the first to
thoroughly describe the effects of the government's
counterinsurgency efforts on the behavior of local officials and on
their relations with villagers and provincial merchants; his
chapters on physicians contain one of the few published discussions
of the meaning of professionalism in non-Western societies, as well
as the only field study available of an Asian medical institution.
