2005年,老挝南部几个地区之一的Bachiang地区开始了大规模的橡胶种植园,这引起了当地村民的严重不满,他们的传统耕作和觅食土地被没收并租给了一家橡胶公司。这一项目以及其他类似的基于南方土地出让的橡胶开发项目已经招致了包括学者和非政府组织在内的各方的批评。这项研究强调了自种植园建立以来,特别是自橡胶开采开始以来,当地人的观点、生计和生活方式是如何变化的,并关注了可能指导他们行动的欲望。通过民族志方法追踪这些变化,本研究表明,由于最近向种植园工作的转变以及更广泛社会带来的其他影响和变化,村庄内的分化和多样化变得越来越明显。
The 2005 launch of a large-scale rubber plantation in Bachiang district, one of several in southern Laos, caused serious discontent among the local villagers whose traditional farming and foraging lands were seized and leased to a rubber company. This and other similar rubber developments based on land concessions in the south have drawn criticism from various quarters, including scholars and nongovernmental organisations. This study highlights how the locals’ views, livelihoods and lifestyles have been changing since the plantation was established, especially since rubber tapping began, and focuses on desires that may have directed their actions. Through an ethnographic approach tracing these changes over time, this study demonstrates that differentiation and diversification within the village have become increasingly apparent owing to both the recent shift to plantation work and other impacts and changes brought about by wider society.
