Reduced Post-war Laos By Vatthana Pholsena
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
"Post-War Laos" is a meticulously researched book that delves into the complexities of national identity in Laos after the Vietnam War. The Lao leadership seeks a nationalist narrative that balances preservation and modernity, while ethnic minority individuals who participated in the war experience socialization and politicization. This ethnographic analysis explores the politics of identity, the geography of memory, and the power of narratives within these minority groups. The book challenges established theories of nationalism by acknowledging the agency of individuals in interpreting their relationship with the nation, highlighting the dynamic and changing nature of national identity. "Post-War Laos" is a ground-breaking study that sheds light on an overlooked aspect of Laos' late socialist era. Minor shelf wear. Otherwise in good condition.
