In FY 2017, this Start-Up research project undertook empirical work in Lao PDR, Cambodia, Thailand, and Myanmar. Over 25 interviews were conducted with national policymakers, UNESCO staff members, national textbook publishers, historians, civil society members, and school officials. Most of the interviews were recorded and transcribed. Research collaborators in each country helped organize the data collection process. The primary investigator, combining multiple research funds, visited Lao PDR, Thailand, and Cambodia as part of this research. In addition, a research collaborator in Vietnam was identified and plans are being made to collect data in FY 2018.
While the data collection process was underway, the primary investigator wrote a book proposal and identified Cornell University Press as a likely publisher. The publisher has agreed to publish the book assuming it receives favorable reviews. The book, tentatively entitled, Historical Memory in the Mekong: Schools, histories, politics, will be submitted for review by April 2018.Research dissemination occurred through publications, presentations, and the press. Besides the eight forthcoming book chapters that have been – or are being -- written, the primary investigator wrote one book chapter (in press) and one journal article (under review). A panel was organized at the Consortium for Southeast Asian Studies in Asia conference, held in Bangkok, Thailand, which brought together three of the research collaborators (including the primary investigator). In addition, two presentations were made at international conferences in Canberra and Hobart, Australia. During these conferences, business meetings were held with researchers who have expertise in multicultural education as well as the politics of food (which happens to be one of four key themes of UNESCO’s shared history project in Southeast Asia). Lastly, this research was spotlighted in the online magazine Modern Diplomacy.
