Based on the author's extensive fieldwork among the Akha people
prior to full nation-state integration, this illuminating study
critically re-examines assumptions about space, power, and the
politics of identity, so often based on modern, western contexts.
Tooker explores the active role that spatial practices (and their
indigenous link to a 'life force') have played in maintaining
cultural autonomy in an historically migratory, multiethnic
context. Space and the Production of Cultural Difference Among the
Akha Prior to Globalization: Channeling the Flow of Life expands
current debates about power relations in the region from a mostly
political and economic framework into the domains of ritual,
cosmology, and indigenous meaning and social systems.
