Description

This work delves into the intricate dynamics of migration among the Iban people of Sarawak, illuminating their diverse strategies and approaches to displacement and resettlement. Christine Padoch offers a nuanced analysis of how the Iban navigate the challenges of modernity while preserving their cultural identity and traditional practices.

Through a blend of ethnographic insight and sociocultural observations, the narrative highlights the interplay between environmental changes, economic pressures, and the community's rich heritage. Padoch’s exploration provides valuable perspectives on the alternative routes of migration adopted by the Iban, shedding light on broader themes of resilience and adaptation in the face of globalization.
