Despite
the recent economic crisis, mainland Southeast Asia continues to
experience increasing economic integration of previously isolated rural
hinterlands, esp. in the upland areas of Lao PDR, Thailand, Vietnam,
Cambodia and Yunnan in China, where demographic pressure together with
the development of infrastructure and increased market-orientation of
production combine to bring about significant economic and social change
in rural areas. These changes have also led to significant environmental
de-gradation such as deforestation, disturbance of water-flows and
depletion of biodiversity resources. These issues and other related ones
are addressed in this volume. Published
