RESEARCH

My current research concerns the implications of end of the Cold War for relations between the developed "north" and Islamic "south".

1994 Archival research at the Royal Institute of Linguistics and Anthropology in Leiden and at the Royal Institute for the Tropics in Amsterdam on the relation between Dutch colonial policy and the development of religious nationalism in Indonesia, under a grant from the Fulbright Commission.
1988, 1989, 2000 Ethnographic fieldwork in Ara, a village in South Sulawesi, Indonesia on the anthropology of knowledge, ranging from boat building to ritual, myth and Islam.
1985 Archival research at the National Archives in Washington D.C. on American colonial policy toward tribal societies in the Philippines.
1979-1981, 1985 Ethnographic fieldwork among the Buid, a group of shifting cultivators in Mindoro, Philippines, on the political implications of ritual and material transactions.
