South-east Asian societies: continuity and change (2012-2013)

Centre Asie du Sud-Est (CASE, CNRS/EHESS) seminar

En croisant approches historiques, anthropologiques, sociologiques, géographiques et économiques, ce séminaire s’attachera à mettre en évidence les permanences dans les différentes manières de faire société en Asie du Sud-Est. Il s’emploiera également à interroger les mutations (colonisation, exode rural, développement économique, émergence de nouvelles classes,...) qu’ont connues ou connaissent les différents groupes sociaux et à repérer ruptures communes ou au contraire évolutions singulières dans la région.

Transforming South-East Asian Cities: a View from the Grassroots

7th EuroSEAS Conference – 7th groupe "Environment, cities and housing", panel 72

Based on empirical approaches, the aim of this panel is to analyze contemporary urban dynamics at the local scale in Southeast Asian cities. In particular we will address mechanisms of urban change, as they can be seen at the neighborhood level. With the ongoing transformations, both in city centers and in the peripheries, are there new forms of urban practices, of resistance? What is the role of the people at the grassroots in such transformations? These interactions can be read from such scales as the home, the street and the neighborhood. From this viewpoint, how can we consider urban oppositional processes, for instance a formal sector to an informal one, public actors to private ones, the authorities to citizens?
