The Enlightenment theorists involved in the public/private debate exposed the logical fallacies of theology and the philosophical weaknesses of metaphysics but left little room for understanding contemporary modes of consumption. What does it mean to be a consumer in the early 21st century? Do modern markets provide real choices for consumers in neoliberal capitalist democracies? Or are consumers ironically slaves to their own patterns of consumption? Rejecting Habermas' conceptualizations in The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere (1991), Rappa offers an examination of modernity and consumption with a non-Marxist, modernity-Resistance-theoretical frame (mRf). He argues that late modernity — the ethos, experience, and consciousness of global and technological transformation today — is not about the fusion of “public and private” spaces. Rather, modernity and consumption involves the deep penetration of private space by public space to the extent that private space becomes dependent, conditional, and decrepit. The “Private” has become contingent on the “Public”. Decisions about what to consume no longer reflect the mindful choices of private, interest-seeking, and wealth-maximizing individuals but reveal a new kind of public control through foundational images of success, failure, horror, violence, and hope.

This paper begins by discussing the principal concepts and definitions used in the study of internal migration. The direct method of estimating internal migration based on the record of the change of residence is reviewed, while the three indirect methods known as the vital statistics method, the survival rate method, and the place of birth method are evaluated in somewhat more detail. The place of birth method was selected to compute the lifetime migration of the eleven states in Peninsular Malaysia in the three post-war census years - 1947, 1957, 1970 - and the interstate migration during the two intercensal periods - 1947-57 and 1957-70. The results of the estimation reveal that, apart from the pronounced differences in the level of interstate migration among the eleven states, there have been significant shifts in the pattern of interstate migration during the post-war years.

For several decades, sociology has been dominated by the mainly Anglo-American traditions of behaviourism, functionalism, and systems theory. Since the sixties, however, there has been a revival of theoretical and methodological orientations in sociology, converging under the general designation of "interactionism". The various streams of sociological thinking are described, "interactionism" is discussed, and the interactionist paradigm is compared with some other major streams of contemporary social thinking.

This paper attempts to evaluate whether the PTA scheme has been successful in liberalizing intra-ASEAN trade through the new tariff reductions. More specfically, it stimulates the maximum potential trade creation effects within ASEAN of the 20% across-the-board tariff reduction on all items with import value of less than US$50,000 each in 1978 trade statstics. In addition, the implications of the latest proposal by the ASEAN Economic Ministers (AEM) to consider raising the cut-off ceiling to US$500,000 are also analysed.

These five countries monographs, stemming from a regional research project on "Culture and fertility in Southeast Asia", initiated by the Institute of Southeast Asian Studies, aim at bridging a gap in the study of relationship between ethnicity and fertility in the region. Developed on essentially the same lines, each monograph presents in turn the individual country's historical background leading to the present social structure; the patterns of intergroup behaviour; population policies and family planning programmes; the development of the demographic structure; and finally an analysis of available secondary data, using multiple classification analysis, to determine the impact of key variables on fertility patterns. Though each is an entity in itself, the five monographs complement one another and taken together provide a useful background for future research in the field.
