Book Description
This research explores the economic contributions of overseas ethnic Chinese (commonly referred to as the "bamboo network") in the economic transformation of Indonesia and the Philippines. This think-piece asks whether or not this economically dominant group can act as the catalysts of economic growth in the period of globalization, as it arguably did during the early decades of economic transformation in the postwar years. Given the unique economic terrain of Southeast Asia, to what extent this network engenders positive economic momentum and to what extent it can hamper further economic dynamism in the age of integrating markets?

A Genealogy of Bamboo Diplomacy
Author: Jittipat Poonkham
Publisher: ANU Press
ISBN: 1760464996
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
In 1975, M.R. Kurkrit Pramoj met Mao Zedong, marking the eventual establishment of diplomatic relations and a discursive rupture with the previous narrative of Communist powers as an existential threat. This book critically interrogates the birth of bamboo (bending with the wind) diplomacy and the politics of Thai détente with Russia and China in the long 1970s (1968–80). By 1968, Thailand was encountering discursive anxiety amid the prospect of American retrenchment from the Indo-Pacific region. As such, Thailand developed a new discourse of détente to make sense of the rapidly changing world politics and replace the hegemonic discourse of anticommunism. By doing so, it created a political struggle between the old and new discourses. Jittipat Poonkham also argues that bamboo diplomacy – previously seen as a classic and continual ‘tradition’ of Thai-style diplomacy – had its origins in Thai détente and has become the metanarrative of Thai diplomacy since then. Based on a genealogical approach and multi‑archival research, this book examines three key episodes of Thai détente: Thanat Khoman (1968–71), M.R. Kukrit Pramoj (1975–76), and General Kriangsak Chomanan (1977–80). This transformation was represented in numerous diplomatic/discursive practices, such as ping‑pong diplomacy, petro‑diplomacy, trade and cultural diplomacy, and normal visits.
