Anthropologie économique des carrières intimes By Nicolas LainezRésumé : À partir d’une enquête sur la traite prostitutionnelle conduite au Viêt Nam, au Cambodge et à Singapour, cette thèse propose une anthropologie économique des relations intimes que les femmes prostituées vietnamiennes nouent avec des opérateurs informels de crédit, avec des facilitateurs de la migration prostitutionnelle, avec des employeurs de l’industrie sexuelle, avec leur famille ainsi qu’avec les hommes qui rétribuent leurs services. Alors que l’économie de marché, à laquelle le Viêt Nam adhère depuis les réformes du Renouveau (Đổi mới) en 1986, pousse ces femmes à entreprendre, à investir, à s’endetter, à consommer et à migrer, de nombreuses embûches se dressent sur leur chemin : exclusion du marché de crédit, coût élevé de la migration... https://halshs.archives-ouvertes.fr/tel-01183507v1 https://ehess.academia.edu/NicolasLainezPerpetually temporary: citizenship and ethnic Vietnamese in Cambodia By Stefan Ehrentraut https://www.academia.edu/3160230/Perpetually_temporary_citizenship_and_ethnic_Vietnamese_in_Cambodia?auto=view&campaign=weekly_digest Nationalism and memory at the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum of Genocide Crimes, Phnom Penh, Cambodia By Rachel Hughes https://www.academia.edu/3264298/Nationalism_and_memory_at_the_Tuol_Sleng_Genocide_Museum_of_Genocide_Crimes_Phnom_Penh_Cambodia Credit as Coping: Rethinking Microcredit in the Cambodian Context By Maryann Bylander https://www.academia.edu/14884375/Credit_as_Coping_Rethinking_Microcredit_in_the_Cambodian_Context From the landof shadows : war, revolution, and the making of the Cambodian diaspora By Um, KhatharyaPublication :New York : New York University Press, Paper on impacts of dam construction for Cambodia’s Environmental and Socio-Economic Development By:LUCH Likanan, FISHER  Rano, ZWIERS  Florent http://www.pic.org.kh/download/20141203%20WBS.1.02.02_Hydropower_RP_Eng_Publication.pdf From Lagging Behind to Losing Ground: Cambodian and Laotian Household Economy and Large-Scale Land Acquisitions By Christophe Gironde and Gilda Senties Portilla http://poldev.revues.org/2043             Special Issue Large-Scale Land Acquisitions: Focus on South-East Asia By : Devpol journal http://devpol.hypotheses.org/?p=901From bloodstone to fish soup: iron recipes By : Marieke Hendrikksen http://recipes.hypotheses.org/?p=6582 Overview of the Worldwide Spread of Conservation Agriculture By A.

By Taylor & Francis group.The book analyzes how formal and informal rules and norms influence advocacy strategies of NGO coalitions. Comparative analysis was conducted of advocacy strategies by Cambodia and Vietnamese NGO coalitions, on their advocacy against the Xayaburi hydropower dam built on the Mekong River.  Through this analysis, the book aims to unfold barriers and opportunities civil society actor faces when working in transboundary contexts. Please see attached book flyerthat provides 20% discount for the book. I would be grateful if you can pass the information to anyone who may be interested, or suggest the book to your library. This book is based on my PhD thesis that was completed in 2014. I have also published a research brief that summarizes key findings from my PhD thesis, primarily targeted to non-academic audiences. This research brief is also attached to this e-mail and I hope it will give you a good idea of what the book will be discussing about.On another note, I have started my new career as a postdoctoral researcher on transboundary water. This position was established in collaboration with Stockholm International Water Institute, Uppsala University, and the Hague Institute for Global Justice. I will be based both in Sweden and the Netherlands during my postdoctoral period. As I have graduated from Dundee, my dundee e-mail account will be inactivated shortly.

How do (and how did) languages shape borders - social, ethnic, religious, or “national”? Likewise, how do languages and linguistic communities move across these limits? In what ways do processes of hybridisation and multilingualism affect the formation of transnational or translocal identities, and how have they done so in the past? How have policies of language standardisation impacted on the political and intellectual spheres? What is the power of orality and performance vis-à-vis a variety of textual productions, through manuscript culture, epigraphical practices, print media, and the Internet? http://kitlv.nl/event/call-papers-conference-language-power-identity-asia-creating-crossing-language-boundaries/ http://www.iias.nl/event/language-power-and-identity-asia-creating-and-crossing-language-boundaries Call for ApplicantsSoutheast Asian manuscripts at Penn and get training in digital humanities!The Schoenberg Institute for Manuscript Studies (SIMS) is now accepting applications for its 2015-2016 Graduate Student Research Fellowship.

While Angkor remained a reference for the new states that developed across the mainland, Theravada Buddhism structured the cultural, social and political forms which continue to define the region. Given the importance of these changes, astonishingly little is understood about how it actually happened, notably in the Angkorian heartland itself.  By supporting interdisciplinary exchange on the Theravadin material heritage across the Southeast Asian region (including Sri Lanka) during this transitional period, the symposium aims to begin to redress this gap in our regional understandings. http://www.soas.ac.uk/news/newsitem99848.htmlConference Colloque International : Images du Cambodge : mythe, histoire et mémoire10 -11 avril 2015 | Archives nationalesAuditorium | 59 rue Guynemer, 93380 Pierrefitte-sur-Seine | Métro Saint-Denis Université (ligne 13)Au moment de la commémoration des quarante ans du génocide cambodgien, le 17 avril 2015, il est nécessaire de témoigner, par des manifestations culturelles et scientifiques, de la survivance et de la créativité d’un pays qui a connu l'élimination de masse et la destruction d'une communauté artistique.

UCLA Campus
Los Angeles, CA 90095
Free and open to the publicIn February 2014, King Norodom Sihanouk of Cambodia was cremated in an elaborate and spectacular week-long ceremony in Phnom Penh. Cambodian scholars reconstructed royal cremation rituals from archival evidence and adapted these to a modern, urban, multi-media context for consumption by common Cambodians and international dignitaries. Supeena Insee Adler, Christopher Adler, and ethnomusicologist Deborah Wong visited Phnom Penh to witness and document the events at the ground level. http://www.international.ucla.edu/cseas/events/11111PublicationsRéseau Asia & Pacifique: Lettre n 66- Févier 2015. http://www.reseau-asie.com/phtml/la-lettre-du-reseau-asie/lettre_reseau_asie.html Between war and peace: violence and accommodation in the Cambodian logging sector, by Simon Springer https://www.academia.edu/775762/Between_war_and_peace_violence_and_accommodation_in_the_Cambodian_logging_sector?auto=download&campaign=weekly_digest War and piecesby Simon Springer https://www.academia.edu/459886/War_and_pieces?auto=download&campaign=upload_emailTowards safe abortion access: an exploratory study of medical abortion in Cambodia, by Pascale Hancart Petitet, Leakhena Ith, Melissa Cockroft, Thérèse Delvaux. p47–55. http://www.rhm-elsevier.com/article/S0968-8080%2814%2943826-6/fulltext Contested mobilities: gendered migration pressures among Cambodian youthby Maryann Bylander https://www.academia.edu/11025450/Contested_mobilities_gendered_migration_pressures_among_Cambodian_youth?auto=download&campaign=upload_email Media and the Geographies of Climate: Indigenous Peoples, Nature and the Geopolitics of Climate Change, by Matthew Tegelberg and Anna Roosval https://www.academia.edu/11183166/Media_and_the_Geographies_of_Climate_Justice_Indigenous_Peoples_Nature_and_the_Geopolitics_of_Climate_ChangeThe Fallout: Invisible Geographies Beyond the Liquid Eye, by Simon Springer https://www.academia.edu/10827975/The_fallout_invisible_geographies_beyond_the_liquid_eye?auto=download&campaign=weekly_digest Moated Sites: a Political Economy Approachby Dougald O'Reilly https://www.academia.edu/7716007/Moated_Sites_a_Political_Economy_Approach?auto=download&campaign=upload_email Neoliberalism as discourse: between Foucauldian political economy and Marxian poststructuralism, by Simon Springer https://www.academia.edu/592370/Neoliberalism_as_discourse_between_Foucauldian_political_economy_and_Marxian_poststructuralism?auto=download&campaign=upload_email The Ties that Bind: The Role of Hmong Social Networks in Developing Small-scale Rubber Cultivation in Laos, by Ian Baird https://www.academia.edu/11270939/The_Ties_that_Bind_The_Role_of_Hmong_Social_Networks_in_Developing_Small-scale_Rubber_Cultivation_in_Laos?auto=download&campaign=upload_email  MIXED MEDECINES HEALTH AND CULTURE IN FRENCH COLONIAL CAMBODIA de SOKHIENG AU Compte rendu d'ouvrage paru dans la revue Aséanie,num 31.

Drawing on qualitative research in northwest Cambodia, this study explores the uses, meanings and implications of ‘migra-loans’ — microcredit loans that are used in tandem with household strategies of international migration. Using microcredit in combination with migration allows households to immediately meet consumption goals and utilize the credit being actively promoted by microfinance institutions, while also retreating from insecure and less profitable local livelihood strategies. These strategies problematize expectations about the developmental potential of microcredit, and highlight the importance of local context in framing rural livelihood choices. http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/dech.12080/abstract Nouvelle publication de l’Irasec, L’Asie du Sud-Est 2015: Bilan, enjeux et perspectives, Sous la direction d'Abigaël Pesses et François Robinne, 2015, 399 pages. http://www.irasec.com/page116  Family Sagas Season I-Episode I: Ly Mah & Aesah, by Emiko StockA tall woman. A pendant made out of gold, or at least a golden shade, applied later, applied for better. Finger waves. A touch of rouge. A certain elegance in the way the hand uncertainly hangs on the body. And just pure elegance holding on to the whole pose, holding together the whole picture, holding together the two young ladies. Meet Ly Mah in her seventeen. Meet her as an introduction to a series of family sagas I have long been willing to share. https://chamattic.wordpress.com/2015/01/07/family-sagas-season-i-episode-i-ly-mah-aesah/   Family Sagas Season I Episode II: Kai Team in Singapore, by Emiko Stock https://chamattic.wordpress.com/2015/01/21/family-sagas-season-i-episode-ii-kai-team-in-singapore/ William W.
