Dr. Shu-min Huang, Distinguished Research Fellow and Director of the Institute of Ethnology, has published his latest ethnographic monograph entitled Reproducing Chinese Culture in Diaspora: Sustainable Agriculture and Petrified Culture in Northern Thailand (Lexington Books, January 2010). This book contains six chapters, with a total of 137 pages. The ethnographic data of this book is based on his fieldwork in a Yunnan Chinese refugee community in Thailand’s Golden Triangle from 2002 through 2007. As Professor Myron L. Cohen in the Department of Anthropology at Columbia University remarked, “This important study gives fascinating and finely drawn historical, ecological and cultural context to a Yunnan Chinese settlement in Northern Thailand. Based on theoretically, richly informed fieldwork, the settlement is described in terms of its own history but also with respect to the changing regional and global forces to which its inhabitants have been exposed to and to which they adjust as they manage their own lives.” Professor Stevan Harrell, distinguished anthropologist at the University of Washington in Seattle, made a similar observation, stating that “Shu-min Huang and his team have conducted admirable fieldwork in the community, and they connect their field research to important discussions going on in the fields of both sustainability and globalization.”
