University of Washington Press Siam and the West, 1500-1700
Book SynopsisIn a lively and engaging style, Dirk Van der Cruysse traces the history of European-Siamese relations, from the arrival of the Portuguese around the beginning of the 16th century followed by the Dutch, British, and French. Explorers, merchants, missionaries, and ambassadors came and went across the oceans, leaving behind vivid accounts of lengthy voyages, lavish courts, and strange customs. Van der Cruysse expertly weaves together material from journals, memoirs, and other archival documents to construct a compelling historical account. Originally published as Louis XIV et le Siam, this English version has been ably translated by Michael Smithies, author of numerous books and articles on the French involvement in Siam during the 17th century.Table of ContentsAcknowledgementsPreface Part One: The Portuguese, the Dutch, and the EnglishChapter One: Portugal's Golden Age and Siam (1510-1580)Chapter Two: Northern Europe Discovers Siam (1580-1600)Chapter Three: The Dutch Set Up Shop in Siam (1601-1608)Chapter Four: The Dutch and English Godowns in Ayutthaya (1609-1664)Chapter Five: Somdet Phra Narai Maharat Part Two: The Missionaries and MerchantsChapter Six: The French Royal East Indies CompanyChapter Seven: The Jesuits in Siam, Followed by the French MissionariesChapter Eight: The Discovery of Buddhist ToleranceChapter Nine: The French Mission in Ayutthaya (1662-1670)Chapter Ten: Phra Narai and the French (1665-1679) The Greek InterludeChapter Eleven: Phaulkon, the Greek Favourite Part Three: The First EmbassiesChapter Twelve: The Drama of the First Siamese Embassy (1680-1681)Chapter Thirteen: Between Two Embassies (1682-1684)Chapter Fourteen: The Second Siamese Embassy (1684-1685) The Persian InterludeChapter Fifteen: The Ship of Sulaiman (1685-1688) Part Four: The Great EmbassiesChapter Sixteen: "These Poor People Who Are Going So Far" (March-September 1685)Chapter Seventeen: "A Brilliant Embassy" (October-December 1685)Chapter Eighteen: The Siamese Embassy to France (January 1686-February 1687)Chapter Nineteen: The La Loubere/Ceberet Embassy (March-December 1687) Part Five: The End of the MirageChapter Twenty: The Revolution in Siam (1688) Epilogue: The Bonfire of the VanitiesNotesChronologyKings of AyutthayaBibliographyIndex

NUS Press Britain, Southeast Asia and the Impact of the
Book SynopsisA sequel to the author's Britain, Southeast Asia and the Onset of the Pacific War (Cambridge University Press, 1996) and Britain, Southeast Asia and the Onset of the Cold War (Cambridge University Press, 1998), this book discusses Britain's policy towards Southeast Asia in the period 1950-55, when it was crucially affected by the struggle in Korea. The phases in that struggle - briefly described and placed in a world context - provide a context for discussing Britain's relations with Burma, Thailand, Indonesia, and Indochina. Covering the dispute over West New Guinea and the Chinese Nationalist incursion into Burma, the book gives a full account of the Geneva conference 50 years ago, which reached a settlement in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia, and of the creation of the SEATO alliance. The focus of the work is on British policy, and it is largely based on a study of British official records.Trade Review... This ground-breaking work will be a foundational text... on [the] important decade of the 1950s in Southeast Asia." - REFEREE'S REPORT

NUS Press Unequal Thailand: Aspects Of Income, Wealth And
Book SynopsisExtreme inequalities in income,wealth and power lie behind Thailand’s political turmoil. What are the sources of this inequality? Why does it persist, or even increase when the economy grows? How can it be addressed?The contributors to this important study—Thai scholars, reformers and civil servants—shed light on the many dimensions of inequality in Thailand, looking beyond simple income measures to consider land ownership, education, finance, business structures and politics. Thecontributors propose a series of reforms in taxation, spending and institutional reform that can address growing inequality.Inequality is among the biggest threats to social stability in Southeast Asia, and this close study of a key Southeast Asian country will be relevant to regional policy-makers, economists and business decision-makers,as well as students of oligarchy and inequality more generally.Trade Review"Overall, this is an engaging and well-crafted volume that delivers much-needed new empirical research on the challenges of inequality and oligarchy in Thailand. This book represents some of the best minds from Thailand on the state of the country’s current political economy."New Mandala Review

NUS Press Impressions of the Goh Chok Tong Years in
Book SynopsisSingapore underwent substantial changes during the 14-year tenure of the country's second Prime Minister, Goh Chok Tong (1990-2004). Coming after many years of growth and stability, the period brought to office a new generation of political leaders whose task was to sustain and build upon the policies of their predecessors. It was a challenging period, punctuated by the Asian financial crisis of 1998 and the SARS epidemic in 2003. The 45 essays collected in this volume review a range of issues from domestic politics and foreign policy to economic development, society, culture, the arts and media, and assess the legacy of Goh Chok Tong's premiership.
