The Hmong people have emigrated from China to Southeast Asia, and from there, since the end of the Vietnam wars, to France, America, and other Western countries. Examining a Hmong opium-growing village in northern Thailand, Tapp here explores how these people have managed to maintain a strong ethnic integrity despite centuries of oppression by more powerful majority populations.
