Reid, Anthony CHARTING THE SHAPE OF EARLY MODERN SOUTHEAST ASIA Singapore Institute of Southeast Asian Studies 2000 Paperback As New with no dust jacket 14 x 22 cm.; pg. x, 298 ; Published by the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies. Preface; lists of maps, tables, illustrations; glossary, bibliography. "In this volume Anthony Reid positions Southeast Asia on the stage of world history. He argues that the region not only had a historical character of its own, but that it played a crucial role in shaping the modern world. Southeast Asia's interaction with the forces uniting and transforming the world is explored through chapters focusing on Islamization; Chinese, Siamese, Cham and Javanese trade; Makasar's modernising momentum; and slavery. The last three chapters examine from different perspectives how this interaction of relative equality shifted to one of an impoverished 'third world' region exposed to European colonial power."

[The author] will chronicle these events in two volumes, of which this is the first, offering a total history that looks not only at the extraordinary political events but also at the everyday life of Southeast Asians."

Reid, Anthony, 1939- SOUTHEAST ASIA IN THE AGE OF COMMERCE 1450-1680 (Volume Two: Expansion and Crisis) New Haven Yale University Press 1993 Paperback Good with no dust jacket Slight crease back cover. ; 15 x 24 cm.; pg. xv, 390; List of illustrations, preface, appendix, guide to reading, references, glossary, index. "In this book Anthony Reid concludes his highly praised exploration of everyday life in the various societies of Southeast Asia, discussing the economic, political, and religious changes that determined the region's place in the early modern world. If the first volume defined Southeast Asia as a place, the second defines the age of commerce as a period. Between the fifteenth and the mid-seventeenth centuries, Southeast Asia became a crucial part of the global commercial system, embraced the scriptural world religions (Islam, Christianity, and Theravada Buddhism) , and experimented with centralized states and commercial cosmopolitan cities. EXPANSION AND CRISIS explains why in the mid-seventeenth century Southeast Asia diverged from the capitalist path taken by Europe and began a process of disengagement from world commerce and economic growth.

Reid, Anthony SOUTHEAST ASIAN EXPORTS SINCE THE 14TH CENTURY : Cloves, Pepper, Coffee, and Sugar Singapore ISEAS Institute of Southeast Asian Studies 1998 Paperback As New with no dust jacket 15 x 23 cm.; pg. xiii, 195 ; Lists of graphs, maps, tables; contributors, preface, bibliography. "Southeast Asia, like other non-Western areas, has often been seen as economically static and self-sufficient until the arrival of late 19th century capitalism, for no better reason than lack of evidence to the contrary. This volume seeks to lay a basis for more solid analysis of the precolonial record through accumulating one type of data--exports--for which the record is long and continuous. By compiling data series for each of the Southeast Asian products which in turn dominated long-term exports (cloves, pepper, coffee and sugar) , it reveals a dynamic pattern of rises and falls in the economic record of the region.

"This study describes the painful transition of North Sumatra from a number of independent states to a part of Netherlands India.
