This book provides the basis for a reconceptualization of key
features in Southeast Asia's history. Scholars from Europe,
America, and Asia examine evolutionary patterns of Europe's and
Japan's Southeast Asian empires from the late nineteenth century
through World War II, and offer important insights into the
specific events of the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. In turn, their
different perspectives on the political, economic, and cultural
currents of the "post-colonial" era - including Southeast Asia's
gradual adjustment to globalizing forces - enhance understanding of
the dynamics of the decolonization process. Drawing on new and
wide-ranging research in international relations, economics,
anthropology, and cultural studies, the book looks at the impact of
decolonization and the struggle of the new nation-states with
issues such as economic development, cultural development,
nation-building, ideology, race, and modernization. The
contributors also consider decolonization as a phenomenon within
the larger international structure of the Cold War and the
post-Cold War eras.
