In tandem with its increasing strategic and market importance amidst the dramatic growth of the neighbouring economies of both China and India, Southeast Asia's own political, social, and intellectual trajectories have challenged not only the expectations of policymakers and analysts alike, but have also raised important new questions for academia. Not surprisingly, recent years have seen a dramatic growth in scholarship devoted to the region. The Anthem Southeast Asian Studies series is committed to offering to a global audience the best of this new generation of original scholarship drawn from across the full range of academic disciplines in the humanities and social sciences. Uniformly subject to rigorous editorial and production standards, our books are directed to academic libraries as well as to researchers, university students, and other sophisticated audiences.
