Tai Lieu Chat Luong This page intentionally left blank Strange Parallels: Southeast Asia in Global Context, c 800–1830 Volume 1: Integration on the Mainland Winner of the World History Association Book Prize “Strange Parallels will certainly be seen for decades to come as one of those intellectual enterprises that helped define a generation of thinking about a particular time and place, in novel and often wonderful ways.” Eric Tagliacozzo, Cornell University “This book thus represents a dramatic new stage in the historiography on early modern Southeast Asia (and Eurasia), setting a demanding agenda for future researchers that makes earlier approaches appear almost Jurassic by comparison.” Michael Charney, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London “Let me say again that this [book] is a masterpiece It is extremely important and will, I predict, become a landmark not only in the study of Southeast Asia but also in the study of early modern world history.” Li Tana, Australian National University “A resounding scholarly achievement His work integrates Southeast Asian history into the past millennium and puts the region on the global map.” Ben Kiernan, Yale University “This is the most ambitious and challenging effort any scholar has yet made to bring Southeast Asian history into the mainstream of the human experience in cogently postcolonial terms.” Alexander Woodside, University of British Columbia “This work has an originality which readers have come to expect from Victor Lieberman [It] will seal Victor Lieberman’s reputation as one of the finest historians of South East Asia and, indeed, one of the most original historians dealing with worldwide comparisons.” M C Ricklefs, National University of Singapore Strange Parallels Southeast Asia in Global Context, c 800–1830 Volume 2: Mainland Mirrors: Europe, Japan, China, South Asia, and the Islands Blending fine-grained case studies with overarching theory, this book seeks both to integrate Southeast Asia into world history and to rethink much of Eurasia’s premodern past It argues that Southeast Asia, Europe, Japan, China, and South Asia all embodied idiosyncratic versions of a Eurasian-wide pattern whereby local isolates cohered to form ever larger, more stable, more complex political and cultural systems With accelerating force, climatic, commercial, and military stimuli joined to produce patterns of linear-cum-cyclic construction that became remarkably synchronized even between regions that had no contact with one another Yet this study also distinguishes between two zones of integration, one where indigenous groups remained in control and a second where agency gravitated to external conquest elites Here, then, is a fundamentally original view of Eurasia during a 1,000-year period that speaks to both historians of individual regions and those interested in global trends Both a specialist in precolonial Burma and a comparativist interested in global patterns, Victor Lieberman graduated first in his class from Yale University and obtained his doctorate from the School of Oriental and African Studies of the University of London His publications include Burmese Administrative Cycles: Anarchy and Conquest, c 1580–1760, which won the Harry J Benda Prize from the Association for Asian Studies; Beyond Binary Histories: Re-Imagining Eurasia to c 1830, which he edited and an earlier version of which appeared as a special issue of Modern Asian Studies devoted to Lieberman’s scholarship; and Strange Parallels: Southeast Asia in Global Context, c 800–1830, Volume 1: Integration on the Mainland, which won the World History Association Book Prize He is the Marvin B Becker Collegiate Professor of History and Professor of Southeast Asian History at the University of Michigan studies in comparative world history Editors Michael Adas, Rutgers University Patrick Manning, University of Pittsburgh Philip D Curtin, The Johns Hopkins University Other Books in the Series Michael Adas, Prophets of Rebellion: Millenarian Protest Movements Against the European Colonial Order (1979) Philip D Curtin, Cross-Cultural Trade in World History (1984) Leo Spitzer, Lives in Between: Assimilation and Marginality in Austria, Brazil, and West Africa, 1780–1945 (1989) Philip D Curtin, The Rise and Fall of the Plantation Complex: Essays in Atlantic History (1990;
