Maiden voyages: Eastern Indonesian women on the move

---

This book explores women's mobility in particular geographical, social, and cultural contexts. I am captivated by women's travel as a way of opening a space of inquiry about Eastern Indonesia's spatial relations. Examining practices of travel provides insights into contemporary social and cultural processes (Clifford 1997; Kaplan 1996; Tsing 2000). This book emphasizes how travel situates Eastern Indonesian women at the intersection of ethnicity/place, class and gender politics. I investi gate theoretical issues of travel within feminist geography frameworks, in which interpretations of place and ideologies of Self are problematized. The field research focuses on contemporary rural women and was con ducted mainly in parts of East Nusa Tenggara and while travelling on boats in the region.
