Map, black and white illustrations, 193pp, notes, references, index, inscription inside upper cover. Southeast Asia: Politics, Meaning and Memory. "Since the late 1960s the Indonesian island of Batam has been transformed from a sleepy fishing village to a booming frontier town, where foreign investment, mostly from neighboring Singapore, converges with inexpensive land and labor. Export processing zones such as Batam are both celebrated and vilified in contemporary debates on economic globalization. "The Anxieties of Mobility" moves beyond these dichotomies to explore the experiences of migrants and tourists who pass through Batam." (Publisher's description). Artikel-Nr. 176158
