Description
Securing a Place: Small-Scale Artisans in Modern Indonesia. By Elizabeth Morrell. Southeast Asia Studies Program Series no. 21. Ithaca, New York: Southeast Asia Program Publications, Cornell University, 2005. 220 pp. The book under review is a study of Torajan and Bugis artisans on the Indonesian island of Sulawesi. The study examines them as workers in micro-enterprises, focusing on development related issues surrounding such enterprises. It is an extremely well written work with a minimal use of jargon that reflects a depth of fieldwork experience on the part of the author. It is also a work of considerable comparative relevance for those interested in small-scale enterprises in general and efforts to promote development through the work of artisans, in particular.
