Thailandas Political Peasants: Power in the Modern Rural Economy
ISBN: 9780299288242 / Angielski / Miękka / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

In Thailand's Political Peasants, however, Andrew Walker argues that the emergence of an entirely new socioeconomic dynamic has dramatically changed the relations of Thai peasants with the state, making them a political force to be reckoned with. Whereas their ancestors...
