Heavily rooted in oral history, this study takes readers to the villages of rural Java; the jungles of northern Thailand; the indigenous tribal communities of Kerala, India; and many other places in this vast region.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMasuda Hajimu organizes each chapter around the theme of \"many Cold Wars,\" or, more precisely, the many local and social wars that were imagined as part of the global Cold War. These histories raise fundamental questions about standard Cold War narratives, encouraging readers to rethink why the Cold War still matters.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContributors are Mary Grace Concepcion, Simon Creak, Cui Feng, David C.
