At the Edge of the Forest: Essays on Cambodia, History, and Narrative in Honor of David Chandler

Studies on Southeast Asia #46

by Anne Ruth Hansen (Editor), Judy Ledgerwood

Inspired by David Chandler's groundbreaking work on Cambodian attempts to find order in the aftermath of turmoil, these essays explore Cambodian history using a rich variety of sources that cast light on Khmer perceptions of violence, wildness, and order, examining the "forest" and cultured space, and the fraught "edge" where they meet.
