TY - GEN AU - Tania Li TI - Transforming the Indonesian Uplands SN - 9789057024016 PY - 1999///0423 CY - Oxford PB - Routledge N2 - Drawing upon current theoretical debates in social anthropology, development studies and political ecology, and presenting original research from across the Archipelago, this book addresses the changing histories and identities of upland people as they relate in new ways to the natural resource base, to markets and to the state.
