Abstract

'Pirates, Prostitutes, and Pullers reveals the lively history of Southeast Asia's underclass-the peasants, urban coolies, prostitutes, maritime raiders, and sea nomads who played a formative role in the region's remarkable transformation. The sixteen essays in this collection focus on critically important themes such as the meaning and constitution of 'culture'; the global political economy; human trafficking; urbanization and colonial policy and practice.'
