The Southeast Asian Muslims, for example, once re- garded as being peripheral to the world of Islam, are now becoming recognized as model Muslim leaders with exceptional abilities to manage difficult tasks such as their own coun- try‟s economic development, the Islamic financial system, democratization and even aero- nautics.

  • Ethnicity and Forest Resource Use and Management
    Page 1 of 11 ETHNICITY AND FOREST RESOURCE USE AND MANAGEMENT IN CAMBODIA BACKGROUND The Community Forestry Working Group established a typological framework to examine the inter-related issues of ecology, tenure, and ethnicity in relation to forest resource perspectives, use and management by rural communities in Cambodia. The typology will serve as a base of knowledge and documentation and as a conceptual framework for understanding community resource use. This will be useful for defining appropriate objectives, strategies, and methodologies to support community forestry development interventions. Specifically, understanding and describing the three underlying typological topics (tenure, ethnicity, ecology) will be helpful for: Establishing a framework for better identification and understanding of existing community forestry activities in Cambodia; A possible identification of appropriate places or regions where community forestry would be relevant and useful for sustainable forest management and for improvement of people's livelihoods; A useful instrument to design programs in a given region with community involvement. INTRODUCTION The population of Cambodia was estimated to be 11,437,656 in 1998. This population consists of different ethnic groups, including Khmer, Cham, Vietnamese, Chinese and hill tribes. Ethnic groups in Cambodian society possess a number of economic and demographic commonalties. For example, minority ethnic villages are more common among the poorest than among the richest quintile of villages (5.3 percent versus 3.2 percent) ( Ministry of Planning, 1999) . While commonalties exist, ethnic groups in Cambodia also preserve differences in their social and cultural institutions. The major differences among the various ethnic groups lie in historical, social organization, language, custom, habitant, belief and religion.

  • Register in Eastern Cham: Phonological, Phonetic and Sociolinguistic Approaches
    REGISTER IN EASTERN CHAM: PHONOLOGICAL, PHONETIC AND SOCIOLINGUISTIC APPROACHES A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Marc Brunelle August 2005 © 2005 Marc Brunelle REGISTER IN EASTERN CHAM: PHONOLOGICAL, PHONETIC AND SOCIOLINGUISTIC APPROACHES Marc Brunelle, Ph.D. Cornell University, 2005 The Chamic language family is often cited as a test case for contact linguistics. Although Chamic languages are Austronesian, they are claimed to have converged with Mon-Khmer languages and adopted features from their closest neighbors. A good example of such a convergence is the realization of phonological register in Cham dialects. In many Southeast Asian languages, the loss of the voicing contrast in onsets has led to the development of two registers, bundles of features that initially included pitch, voice quality, vowel quality and durational differences and that are typically realized on rimes. While Cambodian Cham realizes register mainly through vowel quality, just like Khmer, the registers of the Cham dialect spoken in south- central Vietnam (Eastern Cham) are claimed to have evolved into tone, a property that plays a central role in Vietnamese phonology. This dissertation evaluates the hypothesis that contact with Vietnamese is responsible for the recent evolution of Eastern Cham register by exploring the nature of the sound system of Eastern Cham from phonetic, phonological and sociolinguistic perspectives. Proponents of the view that Eastern Cham has a complex tone system claim that tones arose from the phonemicization of register allophones conditioned by codas after the weakening or deletion of coda stops and laryngeals.

  • Lahu Nyi (Red Lahu) Rites for Est a Bushing a New Village Anthony R
    . LAHU NYI (RED LAHU) RITES FOR EST A BUSHING A NEW VILLAGE ANTHONY R. WALKER* Dedicated to the memory of Paul CavHtawv, loyal assistant and friend, who was born in . Burma's Chin Hills some 40 years ago and murdered in north Thailand early in 1980. 1. Introduction During a four-year research period among the Tibeto-Burman-speaking Lahu in the hills of north Thailand ( 1966-70), 1 I was fortunate to be able to record and translate a substantial corpus of prayer texts applicable to various ritual occasions. Intrinsically valuable as "oral literature", these prayer texts also have helped me greatly in decipher­ ing Lahu ideas: about the supernatural worl.d and their place in :r:elation to it. It is important, I believe, to make this poetic expression of a preliterate moun­ tain people of northern Southeast Asia available to oriental, ethnological and allied scholarship. To this end, and as another step towards a substantial monograph on the Lahu people among whom ·1 worked,2 I have published many of these texts with their ethnographic background in scholarly journals. The result is a series of articles, each one focusing on a certain ritual occasion and giving the texts (in Lahu and in English translation) of the prayers used at that time. Although the present contribution is ~ written to stand by itself, it could better be read in conjunction with my previously­ . published work. 3 For readers unfamiliar with Lahu society and culture, I preface this account of the rites for establishing a village with some short notes on the Lahu people in general, 4 * Department of Sociology, National University of Singapore.

  • Title Mountain People in the Muang : Creation and Governance of a Tai
    Mountain People in the Muang : Creation and Governance of a Title Tai Polity in Northern Laos Author(s) Badenoch, Nathan; Tomita, Shinsuke Citation Southeast Asian Studies (2013), 2(1): 29-67 Issue Date 2013-04 URL http://hdl.handle.net/2433/173784 Right Type Departmental Bulletin Paper Textversion publisher Kyoto University Mountain People in the Muang: Creation and Governance of a Tai Polity in Northern Laos Nathan Badenoch* and Tomita Shinsuke** This paper traces the history of Luang Namtha, an intermontane valley basin in northern Laos, based on the narratives of non-Tai ethnic groups that collectively constitute a majority in the region. The narratives demonstrate the possibility of alternative histories of muangg polities, which are a core part of our understanding of Tai social and political organization. These narratives describe a central role for mountain people in the muang, including the formation, population, and develop- ment of what appears to be a Tai polity. This analysis suggests the need to open up our understanding of “traditional” Tai political spaces to accommodate an expanded historical agency for upland groups conventionally circumscribed within their own upland setting. This paper argues that the first step towards a more nuanced under- standing of muangg is recognizing them as cosmopolitan areas in which many sources of power, innovation, and transformation intersect. Keywords: Laos, muang, ethnic minorities, local history, Lanten I Layers of Locality: Digging for Historical Narratives The Lanten, Sida, and Bit people living in the foothills surrounding the town of Luang Namtha in northern Laos tell of how the valley was empty when their forefathers migrated to the area at the end of the nineteenth century.

VOLUME I. Leeds CELEPHAÏS PRESS. 2008 “In the customs and institutions of schools, academies, colleges, and similar bodies destined for the abode of learned men and the cultivation of learning, everything is found adverse to the progress of science. For the lectures and exercises there are so ordered, that to think or specu- late on anything out of the common way can hardly occur in any man. And if one or two have the boldness to use any liberty of judgement, they must undertake the task all by themselves: they can have no advantage from the company of otherts. And if they can endure this also, they will find their industry and largeness of mind no slight hindrance to their fortune. For the studies of men in these places are confined and as it were imprisoned in the writings of certain authors, from whom if any man dissent he is straightaway arraigned as a turbulent person and an innovator.”—BACON.
