{"product_id":"tibetan-border-worlds-wim-van-spengen-9780710305923","title":"Tibetan Border Worlds: A Geohistorical Analysis of Trade and Traders","description":"The focus of the study is the Tibetan and Tibetanized border populations in the little known Himalayan high-valley of Nyishang in West Central Nepal close to the Tibetan border. There, a group of traders have greatly extended their external relations over the past century in the form of long-distance trade ventures, thereby thoroughly changing the internal conditions of socio-economic organizations in their home district. The object of the study is to establish whether larger geohistorical processes of structural change may be conceptualized in such a way as to link structuration at the level of the localized social group to the dynamics of the wider regional setting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Wim Van Spengen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0710305923\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780710305923\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/12\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 318\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.68w x 1.01d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2001 pg. 960\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2000 pg. 30","brand":"Wim Van Spengen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48112754524415,"sku":"9780710305923","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c18547ae-6fb5-48f0-8e18-97a2098d6cf7.jpg?v=1769610715","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/tibetan-border-worlds-wim-van-spengen-9780710305923","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
