In these four volumes, now published in paperback, twenty-two
scholars of international reputation consider the whole of mainland
and island Southeast Asia from Burma to Indonesia. Each volume has
a new preface which points to the relationships with the other
volumes. The prefaces also comment on some of the research into and
thinking about the subject undertaken since the original
contributions were completed for the first edition. Volume 4 covers
the period from World War II to the present and examines the end of
European colonial empires, the emergence of political structures of
the independent states, economic and social change, religious
change in contemporary Southeast Asia, Southeast Asia's role
and identity in decolonisation, and the ongoing weakening of links
with the West.
'... invaluable for historians wanting a broad picture of the region ... should also be of more general interest.' Danny Yee's Book Reviews
