Bangkok

Autor: William Warren

Número de Páginas: 168

William Warren’s Bangkok is an informal portrait of this most vibrant and perplexing of modern cities. Divided into two parts, the first is a selective history, showing how Bangkok has developed over the last 200 years, while the second explores the contemporary face of the city through a series of personal impressions. The author explains how the charms of Bangkok and its people outweigh the disadvantages of pollution, traffic and stifling heat. He also introduces celebrities, such as the early kings of Thailand’s present dynasty and Anna Leonowens, heroine of The King and I, as well as Jim Thompson, the US-born silk entrepreneur and art collector who mysteriously vanished in the jungles of Malaysia. Bangkok provides a much needed history of the city, but is also imbued with the warmth of Warren’s love affair with its frenetic way of life.

Bangkok

Autor: Marc Askew

Número de Páginas: 384

Bangkok is one of Asia's most interesting, varied, controversial and challenging cities. It is a city of contradictions, both in its present and past. This unique book examines the development of the city from its earliest days as the seat of the Thai monarchy to its current position as an infamous contemporary metropolis. Adopting insights from anthropology, urban studies and human geography, this is a powerful account of the city and its dynamic spaces. Marc Askew examines the city's variety from the inner-city slums to the rural-urban fringe, and gives us a keen insight into the daily life of the city's inhabitants, be they middle-class suburbanites or sex workers.

Bangkok

Autor: Barry Bell

Número de Páginas: 186

"Using direct observations of the surrounding landscape and the tangibel artifacts of the city, its topography, streets, temples and other stunning architectural monuments, Barry Bell carries out a progressive investigation into Bangkok's urban sensibility and its central mythologies - the more mysterious perceptual realms of allusion and illusion, arguably the real Bangkok, implicitly present within its deceptive exterior. In spite of the knowledge that, for many people, order seems alien to the city, the author searches for conceptual coherence. He strives to link the city's hectic urban sensibility to its more elusive and hidden character - the dream of Bangkok that is prompted by angelic allusions"--P. [2] of cover.

Bangkok

Autor: Lawrence Osborne

Número de Páginas: 221

Los turistas viajan a Bangkok por muchas razones: una cita amorosa, una operación de cambio de sexo, una estancia en un hotel de lujo o simplemente por el hecho de desaparecer unos cuantos días. Lawrence Osborne viajó a Bangkok por la odontología barata. Una vez allí descubrió que podía vivir con unos pocos dólares al día. Y decidió quedarse. Osborne es un flâneur, se pasea por las calles de la ciudad, por los canales de la parte vieja, es un asiduo del restaurante No Hands, merodea por los barrios olvidados, los templos derruidos y los bares y clubs de alterne para mostrarnos un lugar vivo, febril, donde una antigua mezcla de la práctica budista y las nuevas costumbres sexuales ha terminado creando una versión de la modernidad que poco tiene que ver con Occidente. Como los perdedores de las novelas de Graham Greene, Osborne quizá llegó hasta Bangkok para dejar atrás su vida, tal vez porque Bangkok es una ciudad que no se parece a ninguna otra, por encarnar una nueva, fantasmagórica, y en gran parte aún inexplorada forma de vida.

The Intimate Economies of Bangkok

Autor: Ara Wilson

Número de Páginas: 288

Bangkok has been at the frontier of capitalism's drive into the global south for three decades. Rapid development has profoundly altered public and private life in Thailand. In her provocative study of contemporary commerce in Bangkok, Ara Wilson captures the intimate effects of the global economy in this vibrant city. The Intimate Economies of Bangkok is a multifaceted portrait of the intertwining of identities, relationships, and economics during Bangkok's boom years. Using innovative case studies of women's and men's participation in a range of modern markets—department stores, go-go bars, a popular downtown mall, a telecommunications company, and the direct sales corporations Amway and Avon—Wilson chronicles the powerful expansion of capitalist exchange into further reaches of Thai society. She shows how global economies have interacted with local systems to create new kinds of lifestyles, ranging from "tomboys" to corporate tycoons to sex workers. Combining feminist theory with classic anthropological understandings of exchange, this historically grounded ethnography maps the reverberations of gender, sexuality, and ethnicity at the hub of Bangkok's modern economy.

Autor: Estelle Whitford , Ai

Bangkok Utopia

Autor: Lawrence Chua

Número de Páginas: 292

“Utopia” is a word not often associated with the city of Bangkok, which is better known for its disorderly sprawl, overburdened roads, and stifling levels of pollution. Yet as early as 1782, when the city was officially founded on the banks of the Chao Phraya river as the home of the Chakri dynasty, its orientation was based on material and rhetorical considerations that alluded to ideal times and spaces. The construction of palaces, monastic complexes, walls, forts, and canals created a defensive network while symbolically locating the terrestrial realm of the king within the Theravada Buddhist cosmos. Into the twentieth century, pictorial, narrative, and built representations of utopia were critical to Bangkok’s transformation into a national capital and commercial entrepôt. But as older representations of the universe encountered modern architecture, building technologies, and urban planning, new images of an ideal society attempted to reconcile urban-based understandings of Buddhist liberation and felicitous states like nirvana with worldly models of political community like the nation-state. Bangkok Utopia outlines an alternative genealogy of both utopia and modernism...

Queer Bangkok

Autor: Peter A. Jackson

Número de Páginas: 321

The Thai capital Bangkok is the unrivalled centre of the country's gay, lesbian and transgender communities. These communities are among the largest in Southeast Asia, and indeed in the world, and have a diversity, social presence and historical depth that set them apart from the queer cultures of many neighbouring societies. The first years of the 21st Century have marked a significant transition moment for all of Thailand's LGBT cultures, with a multidimensional expansion in the geographical extent, media presence, economic importance, political impact, social standing, and cultural relevance of Thai queer communities. This book analyzes the roles of the market and media - especially cinema and the Internet - in these transformations, and considers the ambiguous consequences that the growing commodification and mediatisation of queer lives have had for LGBT rights in Thailand. A key finding is that in the early 21st Century processes of global queering are leading to a growing Asianisation of Bangkok's queer cultures. This book traces Bangkok's emergence as a central focus of an expanding regional network linking gay, lesbian and transgender communities in Hong Kong, Singapore,...

Bangkok Bound

Autor: Ellen Boccuzzi

Número de Páginas: 175

With the acceleration of global migration, literature by migrant writers has emerged as a powerful medium for describing the ways in which global forces are experienced at the personal level. Migrant literature offers a compelling counter‐narrative to abstract visions of globalization, grounding large‐scale processes in real‐life stories of individuals. In Thailand, migrant writers have documented the social and cultural impacts of fifty years of rural‐urban migration through hundreds of stories, poems, and novels. Bangkok Bound is the first book to examine this body of literature and the messages that Thai migrant writers convey about their experiences. These stories powerfully describe the ways in which migrants who leave their homes bound for Bangkok are quickly bound to Bangkok through the transformative force of modern city life. And they show the ways in which those who remain behind in the village are transformed, too, as they struggle to maintain a rural way of life in a rapidly urbanizing world. Bangkok Bound will be of interest to anyone working on migration or urbanization, as well as to scholars of Thailand and Thai literature. Specialists in migration will...

Bangkok after Dark

Autor: Benjamin Tausig

Número de Páginas: 156

From the 1930s to the 1950s, jazz pianist Maurice Rocco was a mainstay in Hollywood and American nightlife scenes. As rock and roll surpassed jazz as America’s most popular music in the 1950s, the queer Black pianist’s fortunes faded and he was forced to go abroad for new opportunities. In 1964 Rocco settled in Bangkok, where he thrived and enjoyed a relatively privileged life until he was murdered by two young male sex workers in 1976. In Bangkok after Dark, Benjamin Tausig uses Rocco’s intriguing story to trace the history of transnational nightlife encounters between Thais and Americans during the long American war in Vietnam. Tausig shows how these encounters, which included musical collaborations, romantic and sexual relationships, and new labor, identity, and geopolitical configurations, remade Thailand in crucial and enduring ways. As Tausig demonstrates, Rocco’s Blackness, queerness, and musical life in Thailand illuminate how Thai-American relationships complicated neat distinctions between the two countries. In teasing out these complexities through the figure of Rocco, Tausig challenges conventional understandings of the global Cold War on individual and...

Margot había crecido vagando de internado en internado y se había convertido en una joven rebelde y acostumbrada a salirse siempre con la suya. Cuando a los veintiún años la expulsaron de la universidad, su padre decidió llevarla con él a Bangkok con la esperanza de obligarla a madurar. Sin embargo, las cosas empeorarían porque allí Margot conoce a Ari, un misterioso y atractivo hombre acostumbrado a moverse en los bajos fondos. Para Ari, esa muchacha desinhibida es un soplo de aire fresco en su vida, y aunque no se atreve a confesarle quién es él en realidad y sabe que su relación no tiene futuro, tampoco se siente capaz de dejarla ir. Es un libro con una historia que entretiene, que engancha, con un personaje masculino que a mí me ha gustado mucho por la dulzura que desprende en muchas ocasiones y por la lucha constante que mantiene consigo mismo, sus sentimientos y todo lo que le rodea. Margot me ha costado un poco más, al principio no me caía demasiado bien por inmadura, pero poco a poco me fue conquistando. Otro personaje básico en la obra es la pareja del padre, un contrapunto perfecto a la protagonista con su gran dulzura y templanza. Me lo he leído con gran ...
