Summary: "Routledge Handbook of Southeast Asian History looks at the major themes that have developed in the study of modern Southeast Asian history since the mid-eighteenth century. Contributions by experts in the field are clustered under three major headings - political history, economic history, and social and cultural history - and chapters challenge the boundaries between topics and regions. Alongside the rise and fall of colonialism, topics included conflict in Southeast Asia, tropical ecology, capitalism and its discontents, the major religions of the region, gender, and ethnicity. The handbook provides a stimulating introduction to the most important themes within the subject area, and is an invaluable reference work for any student and researcher on Southeast Asia and Asian and World history." --From Title page
