About
My name is Samak and I am a graduate student working under the thesis supervision of Dr.Apinya Fuengfusakul at Chiang Mai University, Thailand. My currently research at the center for Ethnic Studies and Development (CESD) as a research assistant to study on local history of Muslim communities in Chiang Mai, under the supervision of Dr.Chayan Vaddhanaphuti. I am very interested in Muslim and Islamic issue, especially in anthropological perspective which makes my eyes open critically to see the relationship of Muslim, their religiosities, cultures and societies. My first B.S. Anthropology research was about marginalization of Burmese Muslim in multi-cultural context, and this research is also becoming my next project to study in the refugee camp with Dr.Alexander Horstmann, a German anthropologist from Max-Planck-Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity, in the topic of ‘Religious Spaces and the Re-Subjectification of Displaced Peoples in the Thai-Burma Borderlands’.
