Bewitching Women, Pious Men Gender and Body Politics in Southeast Asia

"This collection presents new ethnographic research, framed in terms of new theoretical developments, and contains fine scholarship and lively writing."--Janet Hoskins, University of Southern California "This is a wonderful collection of essays. At one level they tell us about the transformation and often painful fragmentation of gendered selves in post-colonial states and a speeded-up transnational world. At another level they display the continuing power of ethnography to surprise and move us."--Sherry Ortner, University of California, BerkeleyOng, Aihwa is the author of 'Bewitching Women, Pious Men Gender and Body Politics in Southeast Asia', published 1995 under ISBN 9780520088610 and ISBN 0520088611.
