The Shore Beyond Good and Evil: A Report from Inside Burma's Opium Kingdom Tapa dura - 2002

de Hideyuki Takano


Información de la editorial

Hideyuki Takano takes us on a journey into the Wa State at the very heart of the 'Golden Triangle' - a remote land with a headhunting past, traditional hilltribes, drugs and guerrilla warfare. This book follows his 7-months in a traditional Wa mountain village, his participation in the complete cycle of opium cultivation and gives insights into a way of life molded by opium and ethnic conflict. As readers are drawn into the life of the Wa, Takano is increasingly drawn into opium dependence, unwittingly becoming a part of this intriguing story. His experiences bring home the stark reality of life on a "Shore Beyond Good and Evil."

Takano is the first writer and one of few foreigners to have stayed in the Golden Triangle region of Burma. This book recounts his 7 months spent in a traditional Wa mountain village, his participation in the complete cycle of opium cultivation and the everyday lives of the farmers.

We are introduced to the Wa's leaders and Takano brings us a picture of life behind the battle lines of the war against drugs and terrorism.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 8vo.
