Anthropology and
Cultural History in
Asia and the
Indo-Pacific The Series
Editors, Pamela J. Stewart and Andrew Strathern, would be pleased to receive
prospectuses from authors for the following Series: Anthropology and Cultural
History in Asia and the Indo-Pacific http://www.ashgate.com/subject_area/sociology_ethnic/anthropology_series.htm This series offers
a fresh and unique perspective on Asian Anthropology that joins Asian studies
with the wider Indo-Pacific region. The inclusion of the Indo-Pacific region in
this Series acknowledges the increasing impact of transnational flows of ideas
and practices across geographical borders, especially within Asia and the
Indo-Pacific region. It also widens the net for including good ethnographically
and historically grounded books in the arenas of local-global relations,
continuity and change, and emerging analytical issues dealing with topics such
as kinship, politics, conflict, ritual and other contemporary themes in this
region of the world. The series publishes scholarly single-authored or
collaborative texts or thematically organized sets of essays that will appeal
to a multidisciplinary range of readers. Titles in the
Series include: - Aboriginal Art, Identity and Appropriation,
Elizabeth Burns Coleman - Domestic Mandala: Architecture of Lifeworlds
