Description du livre
This is an open access book.
This conference endeavours to engage with the dynamics of marginalisation processes and their implications for diverse marginalized groups within the complex socio-cultural, historical, and political landscape of Southeast Asia. Utilizing a multidisciplinary approach, this research encompasses insights from sociology, anthropology, political science, and economics to unravel the layered dynamics of exclusion and the myriad factors contributing to the marginalization of specific communities in the region.
A critical aspect of this meeting is the exploration of historical legacies, examining how the colonial past has influenced contemporary patterns of marginalization. The research delves into the socio-economic disparities, cultural diversity, and political structures that underpin the marginalization of certain groups. By adopting an intersectional lens, the study scrutinizes the interplay of factors such as ethnicity, gender, religion, and socio-economic status, recognizing the interconnectedness of these dimensions in shaping the experiences of marginalization.
Furthermore, it also examines the repercussions of marginalization on affected communities, analyzing the barriers they encounter in accessing fundamental rights such as education, healthcare, employment, and political participation. Special attention is given to the resilience and resistance strategies employed by marginalized groups, illustrating their agency in navigating and challenging systemic exclusion.
The conference, hopefully, incorporates in-depth case studies from various countries within Southeast Asia to capture the regional nuances of marginalization processes. By adopting a comparative approach, the research identifies both commonalities and unique challenges faced by marginalized groups across national borders, contributing to a nuanced understanding of regional dynamics.
This conference not only documents and analyzes the complexities of marginalization within Southeast Asia but also strives to provide actionable insights. By shedding light on the challenges faced by marginalized groups, the research aims to inform policy interventions and social initiatives that can address and mitigate the adverse effects of systemic exclusion. Through this lens, the study contributes to ongoing discussions on social justice, equity, and inclusive development in the Southeast Asian context, fostering a deeper understanding of these issues for the benefit of both academic discourse and practical implementation.
