点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Mainland Southeast Asia’s dynamic and asymmetrical development is transforming its societies and consuming its remaining forest frontiers. Like other developing regions, the synergies and tensions between transnational, national and local processes of change are highly conspicuous in its border areas, but poorly understood. This interdisciplinary project explores how local actors negotiate transnational networks and markets on the Cambodia-Vietnam borderland and determine how these interactions will affect environments, socioeconomic vulnerability and local agency. It offers crucial new knowledge for more viable and sustainable policy on environment, development and security in this strategically important region.
