520 "This handbook provides a comprehensive analysis of the
major themes that have defined the politics of Southeast
Asia. It provides a comprehensive and cutting-edge
examination of this important subject. The introductory
chapter provides an overview of the theoretical and
ideological themes that have dominated the study of the
region's politics and presents the different ways the
complex politics of the region have been understood. The
contributions by leading scholars in the field cover a
range of broad questions about the dynamics of politics.
The handbook analyses how the dominant political and
social coalitions of the region were forged in the Cold
War era, and assesses the complex processes of transition
towards various forms of democratic politics. How
institutions and systems of governance are being forged in
an increasingly global environment is discussed and
whether civil society in Southeast Asia has really evolved
as an independent sphere of social and political activity.
The handbook examines how national governments are dealing
with growing tensions within the region as matters such as
labour, human rights and the environment spill beyond
national boundaries, and how they are establishing a place
in the new global framework. By engaging the Southeast
Asian experience more firmly with larger debates about
modern political systems, the handbook is an essential
reference tool for students and scholars of political
science and Southeast Asian studies."--Publisher's
