“…Other practices have been co‐opted by government policies that attempt to turn them into raw materials for modernisation and scale them up into standardised government development initiatives. In the 1960s, former Philippine president and dictator Ferdinand Marcos employed bayanihan (reciprocal labour exchange) as a strategy in building his idea of a New Society ( Bagong Lipunan ) to further his political and economic interests (San Juan, ). Similarly, under the Suharto New Order regime, Javanese customary institutions such as jimpitan (small gifts of rice for social use), arisan (small rotating credit groups) and gotong royong (community labour activities) were widely disseminated as national programmes of economic development or social protection across the Indonesian archipelago.…”

A diversity of place‐based community economic practices that enact ethical interdependence has long enabled livelihoods in Monsoon Asia. Managed either democratically or coercively, these culturally inflected practices have survived the rise of a cash economy, albeit in modified form, sometimes being co‐opted to state projects. In the modern development imaginary, these practices have been positioned as ‘traditional’, ‘rural’ and largely superseded. But if we read against the grain of modernisation, a largely hidden geography of community economic practices emerges. This paper introduces the project of documenting keywords of place‐based community economies in Monsoon Asia. It extends Raymond William’s cultural analysis of keywords into a non‐western context and situates this discursive approach within a material semiotic framing. The paper has been collaboratively written with co‐researchers across Southeast Asia and represents an experimental mode of scholarship that aims to advance a post‐development agenda.

“…My own position strives to be a dialectical-materialist stance that privileges historical specificity and counterhegemonic imperatives on the question of adapting ideas originating from other sources (San Juan 2007). In my view, language is only one of the criteria for hypothesizing the nation as 'imagined community', to use Benedict Anderson's formula.…”

“…While race and racism are important issues that deserve much attention, a critical analysis of these issues should not be detached from class and classism, as all forms of oppression intersect (Crenshaw, 2002). As McLaren (2005), Scatamburlo-D’Annibale (2010), Klein (2007), Malott (2008), and San Juan (2009), among others, illuminate in their work, race and class constitute a matrix of domination and oppression, particularly in the U.S. capitalist system—a system that has been controlled by a minority of oligarchs. Therefore, echoing these authors, I argue that a Marxist analysis of the intersection of race and class can help one better understand the ways and the extent to which these two forms of oppression affect people, particularly poor People of Color and poor Whites.…”

Race is one of the most contested topics. With the political victory of Barack Obama as the first African American president, discussions about racial issues in the United States have surfaced to the forefront of political debates. Yet, critics have argued that there is not much discussion about race given its significance in the history of this country. Informed by critical race theory, this paper examines the underlying reasons explaining the silence of many people about race. It goes on to examine race through a mosaic lens, pointing out various factors directly connected to it, such as racial identity politics, racism, multiracialism, and White hegemony. Finally, this paper analyzes the manner in which socially constructed racial stereotypes have contributed to and have been used to justify the poor socioeconomic situation and marginalization of People of Color, including linguistically and culturally diverse students.
