Southeast Asia: Politics, Meaning, and Memory (Hardcover): Khmer Women on the Move : Exploring Work and Life in Urban Cambodia (Hardcover)

This work offers an ethnology of young Cambodian women who move from the countryside to work in Cambodia's capital city, Phnom Penh. The book challenges the dominant image of these young rural women - that they are controlled by global economic forces and national development policies or trapped by history and restrictive customs.
