Description

Explore a detailed study of social dynamics in Pahang, West Malaysia, through this academic work from the LSE Monographs on Social Anthropology series. Based on extensive fieldwork in Kampung Kuala Bera, this book examines how communication networks function within a long-established Malay village. Dr. Wilder investigates various levels of interaction, ranging from small-scale kinship and village-based connections to larger district and national systems. This research provides a deep look at the uses of language and the role communication plays during periods of rapid social change. It specifically looks at how these networks impact economic development and administrative processes. For students and researchers of anthropology and sociology, this text offers a unique perspective on how traditional social structures adapt to modern influences. This volume serves as a valuable resource for understanding the connection between communication, community, and societal evolution in rural Southeast Asian contexts.
