Today's Lao, Vietnamese and Cambodian landscapes bear the imprint of competing violent ideologies and their perilous material manifestations. From battlefields and massively bombed terrain to reeducation camps and resettled villages, the past lingers on in the physical environment. The nine essays in this volume discuss post-conflict landscapes as contested spaces imbued with memory-work conveying differing interpretations of the recent past, expressed through material (even, monumental) objects, ritual performances, and oral narratives (or silences). While Cambodian, Lao and Vietnamese landscapes are filled with tenacious traces of a violent past, creating an unsolicited and malevolent sense of place among their inhabitants, they can in turn be transformed by actions of resilient and resourceful local communities. 588 Description based on print version record. 590 Project Muse|bProject Muse Open Access 650 0 Indochinese War, 1946-1954|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh85065723|zLaos.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n80128712-781 650 0 Indochinese War, 1946-1954|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh85065723|zCambodia.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n80014970-781 650 0 Indochinese War, 1946-1954|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh85065723|zVietnam.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79032186-781 655 0 Electronic books. 655 7 Electronic books. .|2local 700 1 Tappe, Oliver,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2010191701|eeditor of compliation. 700 0 Vatthana Pholsena,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2005209057|eeditor of compliation. 710 2 Project Muse,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n96089174|edistributor. 776 18 |iPrint version:|z9971697017|z9789971697013 830 0 Book collections on Project MUSE. 856 40 |zOnline eBook.
