    THE KILLING OF CAMBODIA: GEOGRAPHY, GENOCIDE AND THE UNMAKING OF SPACE
    JAMES A. TYNER
    Between 1975 and 1978, the Khmer Rouge carried out genocide in Cambodia unparalleled in modern history. Approximately 2 million died - almost one quarter of the population.

    MADE IN THE PHILIPPINES
    JAMES A. TYNER
    The Philippines is the world's largest exporter of temporary contract labor with a huge 800,000 workers a year being deployed on either six month or two year contracts. This labor migration is highly regulated by the government, private, and non-governmental/non-private organizations. Tyner argues that migrants are socially constructed, or 'made' by these parties and that migra...
