Vatthana Pholsena is Assistant Professor of Southeast Asian Studies at the National University of Singapore.
"Post-war Laos is a thorough and original study of the difficult making of a multiethnic nation. Combining a historical approach and a multi-sited ethnography, it provides unique insights into the ideology of ethnicity in Laos. This book is clearly a major contribution to the understanding of one of the less known countries in Asia."-Yves Goudineau, Professor and Scientific Director, Ecole Francaise d'Extreme-Orient (EFEO) "Post-war Laos makes not only an important contribution to the study of Lao identity, society, and history, but also more broadly to the vexed problem of multiple identities among the people of Southeast Asia."-Martin Stuart-Fox, Professor Emeritus, University of Queensland
