Love and Dread in Cambodia : Weddings, Births and Ritual Harm under the Khmer Rouge -- Paperback / softback

Group marriages along with prescriptions for sex, pregnancies and births, were a central feature of the remaking of Cambodia society and contributed to the dissolution of the country's ritual practices. This title argues that suffering was intensified by ritual tampering on the part of the Khmer Rouge period (1975-1979) of Cambodia.
