About This Item
The Institute of East Asian Studies, Universiti Malaysia Sarawak. 2001. Trade paperback. Very good.. 139 p., illustrations, maps. . Voices of the Crocker Range Indigenous Communities Sabah is a monograph which attempts to capture the "peoplespeak" dimension of the people-environment relationship of the Sabah Crocker Range society. Whilst the main social actors are those from the KadazanDusun community of Tabunan, voices of the KadazanDusun of Ranua and the Muruts of Tenom are also present. These are "social narratives" of transition of indigenous people and communities caught between tradition and modernity representing a journey of identity in the making. As opposed to the normal anthropological and authored form of "writing culture", the ethnography presented here articulates both centred and decentring voices of authority juxtaposed in differentiated ways in the evolving Sabah society of the Malaysian nation-state. The monograph is based on research conducted as part and parcel of the UNIMAS led International Crocker Range Expedition 2000 inspired by Professor Ghazally Ismail.
