In this presentation, Duncan McCargo discusses the phenomenon of urbanized
villagers. Scholars of Southeast Asia have typically divided people into two
major categories, urban and rural. But what happens to those who fall nearly
in neither category, or belong equally to both? In Cambodia and Thailand,
election outcomes are largely determined by the preferences of people who work
mainly in work and around the capital city, but are legally registered to vote in
their 'home' villages. He will discuss the social and political impacts of
this split identity phenomenon and ways in which the associated problems might be
best addressed.
