Isan Culture

Q Have you ever travelled to Isaan and what were your experiences?
Is it worth taking time to explore? I have been back home from Thailand for a month, and already planning my next trip(been 5 times already), Isaan is one area of Thailand I have never been to except to Udon Thani, but that was only as a transit point to Laos, so in reality I have never been. I imagine the tourist infrastructure isn’t as built up as say Chiang Mai, or Samui. But I was wondering what other people thought about their travels there. Thanks!
A Yes, apart from in Khorat, the tourism infrastructure is not well established in Isan. But if you want to see nature (but no sandy beaches or tropical islands) and culture, then Isan is the place to go.
Wat Pha Namthip Thep Prasit Wararam in Roi Et Province includes the stunning or Maha Chedi Chai Mongkhon or the Chai Mongkhon Pagoda. I highly recommend a visit – go along rural highway no. 2136, pass Phon Thong Vocational College in direction of Pha Nam Yai.
Roughly 180 km east of the city of Nong Khai Province (near the riverside town of Bung Kan) is a huge sandstone rock named Phu Tok. It jots up almost 200 meters in the otherwise flat landscape.
At the top of the mountain is a temple, Wat Chetiya Khiri Vihan (commonly simply called Wat Phu Tok), which can be reached by a seven-level wooden spiral staircase.
In Ubon Ratchathani you can enjoy great natural sights (and a view into Laos across the Mekong River) in the national parks named Kaeng Tana, Pha Taem, and Phu Jong-Na Yoi.
In Ubon, you can also see Sam Pan Bok

It is my understanding that the query that is responded to just above was posed back on May 15, 2010.
This post is a sequel of sorts to one that I published on April 19, 2011 at my defunct website Siam-Longings.com (thanks for nothing, HostGator). However, since that original post no longer exists, then I suppose that makes this one an original.
I am typing these words on January 15, 2021 at 1:38 a.m. here in British Columbia (Canada), not far at all from Vancouver. The post will be very long ─ typically, it is commonplace for me to exceed 30,000 words. Consequently, if you choose to start scrolling through the material that follows, you will likely find yourself reasonably entertained and informed for some while ─ or so I hope.
Anyway, I expect that I have over two and possibly even three weeks of work ahead of me, so I want to get started.
One final thing ─ this is for any of you who actually care about published academic or scholastic papers that get published in journals. I link to some below. Most of these are inaccessible without a subscription to the relevant journal, but it is possible to access them for free anyway. It is public knowledge, although somewhat suppressed.
The Wikpedia article about the website that makes this possible is Sci-Hub. Sci-Hub has to keep bouncing around as its various Web addresses get shut down, but Wikipedia seems alert about this and usually has current locations listed in the right sidebar or column to that article.
I say no more.
Enjoy yourself!

Isan‘s culture is predominantly Lao, and has much in common with that of the neighbouring country of Laos. This affinity is shown in the region’s cuisine, dress, temple architecture, festivals, and arts.
Isan food has elements most in common with Laos and is somewhat distinct from central Thai cuisine. The most obvious difference is the consumption of sticky rice that accompanies almost every meal rather than non-sticky long-grain rice. …

Amazon U.S. • Isan Writers, Thai Literature: Writing and Regionalism in Modern Thailand
Regional characteristics and regional language feature prominently in discussions of Thai identity, but there is little mention of regional literatures. In northeastern Thailand’s Isan region, authors write primarily in Thai, but it is possible nonetheless to identify an Isan literature, which played a significant and at times pivotal role in the development of Thai literature in the second half of the twentieth century, as authors grappled with how their origins and experiences related to the Thai centre. Martin Platt’s account of Isan literature is an important first step toward a broader study of regional literatures in Thailand, and shapes a model that has relevance for examining literary works in other Asian countries.
Martin B. PLATT is Associate Professor in the Department of Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies at the University of Copenhagen.

Amazon U.S. • Environmental Movements in Asia (NIAS Man and Nature in Asia)
This volume paints a general picture of the environmental situation in Asia, backing it up with several case studies.
Two major points are made in this general picture. The first is that environmental campaigns in Asia tend to have a local focus; they react to very concrete problems in the immediate neighbourhood and as such usually people are engaged in a cause for practical rather than idealistic reasons. Such can be seen in case studies from the volume dealing with campaigns against logging and tree plantations, tourist facilities and factories and in support or defence of nature reserves. This pattern is in marked contrast to the profile of the most successful Western movements (in terms of fund-raising at least) for whom the focus is on perceived problems in distant parts of the world.
The second point is evidence in several of the case studies in the volume, namely that environmental campaigns cannot be understood in terms of environmental issues alone. Rather, they should be regarded as a form of cultural critique and frequently are a form of political resistance in situations where open political action is too risky.

I live in the North East where we have Isan, or Lao cultural influences. Thailand has had many different capitals and kingdoms in its history. The Lana kingdom influenced the culture around Chiang Mai. There are some similarities to Isan in the language and the food. For instance, in Isan and in Chiang Mai, we eat sticky rice (glutinous rice)- Central Thailand eats jasmine rice. In central Thailand, from my understanding, tattoos are traditionally something that is feared, and not done. …

Amazon U.S. (English)• Gender and Natural Resource Management: Livelihoods, Mobility and Interventions
This book is about the gender dimensions of natural resource exploitation and management, with a focus on Asia. It explores the uneasy negotiations between theory, policy and practice that are often evident within the realm of gender, environment and natural resource management, especially where gender is understood as a political, negotiated and contested element of social relationships. It offers a critical feminist perspective on gender relations and natural resource management in the context of contemporary policy concerns: decentralized governance, the elimination of poverty and themainstreaming of gender.
Through a combination of strong conceptual argument and empirical material from a variety of political economic and ecological contexts (including Cambodia, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Nepal, Thailand and Vietnam), the book examines gender-environment linkages within shifting configurations of resource access and control. The book will serve as a core resource for students of gender studies and natural resource management, and as supplementary reading for a wide range of disciplines including geography, environmental studies, sociology and development. It also provides a stimulating collection of ideas for professionals looking to incorporate gender issues within their practice in sustainable development.

Ubonrat Siriyuvasak argues that the Thai television industry is dually structured to support state ideology and propagate consumerism. This article proposes that television has, in spite of its structure, helped to empower the large Isan minority in Thailand through the popular song genre pleeng luuk tung. Luuk tung, or Thai country music, is possibly the only significant genre of music to ever be named after a television program. The history of luuk tung in television is examined along with the cultural and social impact of significant programs. The revival of Isan culture and the mediatory role of luuk tung is demonstrated through a case study of the drama series Pleeng rak rim fang Kong (‘Lovesong on the banks of the Mekong’). …

Amazon U.S. • The Routledge Research Companion to Planning and Culture (Ashgate Research Companion)
It has become increasingly evident that effective planning for sustainable communities, environments and economies pivots on the ability of planners to see the possibilities for culture in comprehensive social, historical and environmental terms and to more fully engage with the cultural practices, processes and theorisation that comprise a social formation. More broadly, an approach to planning theory and practice that is itself formed through a close engagement with culture is required.
This Research Companion brings together leading experts from around the world to map the contours of the relationship between planning and culture and to present these inextricably linked concepts and issues together in one place. By examining significant trends in varying national and international contexts, the contributors scrutinise the theories and practices of both planning and culture and explore not only their interface, but significant divergences and tensions. In doing so, this collection provides the first comprehensive overview and analysis of planning and culture, interdisciplinary and international in scope.
It is comprised of six parts organised around the themes of global and historical contexts, key dimensions of planning and cultural theory and practice, and cultural and planning dynamics. Each section includes a final chapter that provides a case study lens which pulls the themes of the section together with reference to a significant planning issue or initiative.
