Being Malay in Indonesia: Histories, Hopes and Citizenship in the Riau Archipelago
ISBN: 9788776941338 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The people of Indonesia's Riau Archipelago had long resented "colonial" control by Mainland Sumatra.

However, what is meant by the term varies radically, and the contributors here, through compelling and wide ranging essays, identify the strengths and weaknesses of current definitions and their deployment in the social sciences.

The current study revealed that participants rated a mock Facebook user with a high number of friends as friendlier, more likeable, approachable, and were more willing to donate money to a cause championed by her. Analyses from...
