Description: "Times of crisis present a unique opportunity for research on social change and for uncovering social tensions and fault lines within society. This book describes how major economic and political crises combine with social aspirations at grass-roots level to elicit shifts in local and regional configurations of power and knowledge. Special attention is paid to disadvantaged sectors of Balinese society, including marginal ethnic or religious groups, rural populations and women."--BOOK JACKET.
