The Memory of Trade: Modernity's Entanglements on an Eastern Indonesian Island Paperback - 2000
by Patricia Spyer
From the rear cover
"With profound insight, empathy, and theoretical sophistication, Patricia Spyer traces out the complex intertwinings among identity, global commerce, local ritual, and national politics. This book is a masterful demonstration of how much of modernity's paradoxes, romance, and uncanny displacements best come into sight when viewed from the perspective of the supposed margins."--Webb Keane, author of "Signs of Recognition: Powers and Hazards of Representation in an Indonesian Society"

Description:
United States.: Duke University Press.. 2000.. Maps, 15 black and white photographic illustrations, 354pp, notes, bibliography, index, remainder mark lower edge, a very good paperback copy. "The Memory of Trade is an ethnographic study of the people of Aru, an archipelago in eastern Indonesia. Central to Patricia Spyer's study is the fraught identification of Aruese people with two imaginary elsewheres - the 'Aru' and the 'Malay' - and the fissured construction of community that has ensued from centuries of active international trade and more recent encroachments of modernity.
