Discusses the significance of Thai Buddhism in a post-modern urban context, especially following the financial crisis of 1997. Defining the cultural nature of Thai 'urbanity'; the implications for local/global flows, interactions and social formations, this book opens up possibilities in understanding the specificities of everyday urban life.
