  • Seeking the State from the Margins: from Tidung Lands to Borderlands in Borneo
    Seeking the state from the margins From Tidung Lands to borderlands in Borneo Nathan Bond ORCID ID: 0000-0002-8094-9173 A thesis submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. December 2020 School of Social and Political Sciences The University of Melbourne i Abstract Scholarship on the geographic margins of the state has long suggested that life in such spaces threatens national state-building by transgressing state order. Recently, however, scholars have begun to nuance this view by exploring how marginal peoples often embrace the nation and the state. In this thesis, I bridge these two approaches by exploring how borderland peoples, as exemplars of marginal peoples, seek the state from the margins. I explore this issue by presenting the first extended ethnography of the cross-border ethnic Tidung and neighbouring peoples in the Tidung Lands of northeast Borneo, complementing long-term fieldwork with research in Dutch and British archives. This region, lying at the interstices of Indonesian Kalimantan, Malaysian Sabah and the Southern Philippines, is an ideal site from which to study borderland dynamics and how people have come to seek the state. I analyse understandings of the state, and practical consequences of those understandings in the lives and thought of people in the Tidung Lands. I argue that people who imagine themselves as occupying a marginal place in the national order of things often seek to deepen, rather than resist, relations with the nation-states to which they are marginal. The core contribution of the thesis consists in drawing empirical and theoretical attention to the under-researched issue of seeking the state and thereby encouraging further inquiry into this issue.

First, it analyzes existing trade patterns and competitive advantages of Sabah and North Kalimantan, as well as government objectives in promoting cross-border commercial activities. Second, it proposes a border economic area spread over a wide geographic area that covers a network of interrelated activities. The resulting program provides a fully integrated approach to the border economic area design and implementation. Third, it identifies potential cross-border value chains that can serve as high-profile, demonstrable projects for the border economic area. Fourth, it determines the preference orderings of project features by key stakeholders such as government and development partners, commercial entities, and the local population. Fifth, it estimates the net monetary returns for the project portfolio, ranks stakeholders’ non-monetary preferences, and incorporates the latter results into the project portfolio’s net monetary returns. And, sixth, it provides an overall program appraisal for the set of projects, including an impact analysis of connectivity options.

  • Remaking the Landscape: Kelabit Engagements with Conservation
    REMAKING THE LANDSCAPE: KELABIT ENGAGEMENTS WITH CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT IN SARAWAK, MALAYSIA by SARAH LYNNE HITCHNER (Under the Direction of J. Peter Brosius) ABSTRACT This research aims to document an indigenous culture in a remote place in the process of actively re-negotiating its identity and connections to a changing landscape. The Kelabit have always interacted with other ethnic groups and other places; they have never been completely isolated in the secluded Kelabit Highlands of Sarawak, Malaysia. But the nature and the pace of their engagements with the outside world have changed dramatically in recent decades; numerous external forces have acted upon the Kelabit community, from colonialism to missionization to globalization. They have had very little control over some of these forces, but neither have they been passive recipients of changes wrought by these forces. The Kelabit have always displayed great agency, ingenuity, pride, entrepreneurship, and political savvy during their interactions with the world outside the plateau, and these characteristics extend to their current engagements with conservation and development in the Kelabit Highlands. Building on recent advances in the historical ecology of anthropogenic landscapes and the political ecology of conservation, my research employed an array of ethnographic methods to address three main objectives: (1) to document the relationship between cultural sites and anthropogenic landscape modification in the Kelabit Highlands; (2) to advance a multidisciplinary methodology of gathering, monitoring, and analyzing spatial and temporal data from different sources; and (3) to promote a multi-level collaborative approach to participatory anthropological research methods in the context of planning for several possible alternative conservation and development scenarios in the Kelabit Highlands.
