Over the course of the half century from 1865 to 1915, the British and Dutch delineated colonial spheres, in the process creating new frontiers. This book analyzes the development of these frontiers in Insular Southeast Asia, as well as the accompanying smuggling activities of the opium traders, currency runners, and human traffickers who pierced such newly drawn borders with growing success.The book presents a history of the evolution of this 3000-kilometre frontier, and then inquires into the smuggling of contraband: who smuggled and why, what routes were favoured, and how effectively the British and Dutch were able to enforce their economic, moral, and political will. Examining the history of states and smugglers playing off one another within a hidden but powerful economy of forbidden cargoes, the book also offers new insights into the modern political economies of Southeast Asia.
好羡慕这种博论出成400页+。。。当然人家水平也的确不一样
评分虽然'porous borders'听起来有点后现代,但这本书其实并不怎么涉及理论,都是很实在的叙述,讲国家如何试图控制边界,又如何不可避免地为走私创造条件。材料所限,全书大部分时候呈现的是国家的视角,不过最后两章还是能用一个复杂的庭审案件来分析走私者的想法和策略。相当完美了
