Description: Between Hills and Plains by Hayami Yoko Yoko has been doing fieldwork among the people called Karen in Thailand and Burma/Myanmar since 1987, and based his 1992 dissertation on its early stages. Here he pretty much rewrites the entire study not only to incorporate his later research, but more importantly to account for conceptual changes FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description In this study, the author suggests that the Karen in northwestern Thailand are located betwixt and between the perepheries and the mainstream of the modern nation-state. It demonstrates how the Karen actively adopt new religious practices in ways that enable them to maintain communal boundaries and cultural particularity, at the same time as they integratethemselves into the broader stream of Thai society.
