Books by Marc Askew

Providing insights into this Southeast Asian city, this book interprets Vientiane's landscape, as a reflection of key aspects of Lao geo-political history, the nature of Lao urbanism, and its critical relation to constructions of Lao identity in the contemporary period.

An in-depth study of the city's many facets, with insights from cultural history, urban studies and human geography, this title is an account of the real Bangkok, useful for anyone with an interest in urban studies or Asian studies.
