Cambodia, a land with a rich and complex history, is often associated with the lost glories of Angkor and the horrors of the Khmer Rouge. However, any understanding of Cambodia today must embrace these opposites, as well as the changing attitudes within the country caused by a demographic revolution. Today, close to seventy percent of Cambodians are under thirty. In the past, Cambodia was the center of the Khmer empire, ruling much of what is now Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand from its capital at Angkor for six hundred years. The ruins of the Khmer palaces, temples, and cities testify to its power, wealth, high culture, and engineering prowess. However, their subsequent abandonment and long obscurity provide a sobering example of civilization's fragility.
Today, Cambodia is navigating its rich and complex past with the challenges of modernity in a globalized world. Culture Smart! Cambodia is for all those who want to do more than just scratch the surface of this fascinating country. Thoroughly updated, this new edition will enrich your understanding of the land and its people. It explains the key values, attitudes, customs, and traditions that you need to be aware of and provides practical tips and vital information on how to make the most of your time in Cambodia.
Have a richer and more meaningful experience abroad through a better understanding of the local culture. Chapters on history, values, attitudes, and traditions will help you to better understand your hosts, while tips on etiquette and communicating will help you to navigate unfamiliar situations and avoid faux pas.
