説明

<jats:p>This paper explores the politics of mobility for a group of rural inhabitants attempting to diversify their livelihoods in an especially prescribed environment, namely ethnic minority street vendors living and working in upland socialist<jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">V</jats:styled-content>ietnam. These<jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">H</jats:styled-content>mong,<jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">Y</jats:styled-content>ao and<jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">G</jats:styled-content>iáy individuals face a political environment where access and trade rights shift on a near‐daily basis because of the impulses of state officials, and where ethnicity is central to determining who gets to be mobile and how. We analyse three groups of itinerant vendors—those vending on the streets of an upland tourist town, the mobile minority wholesalers who supply them and other traders, and vendors who trek with Western tourists—to reveal the nature of this trade environment, while also highlighting the ways in which ethnic minority vendors negotiate, work around and contest vending restrictions in numerous innovative ways. We find that this focus on the micro‐geographies and everyday politics of mobility is essential to understanding how rural<jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">G</jats:styled-content>lobal<jats:styled-content style="fixed-case">S</jats:styled-content>outh livelihoods are fashioned and diversified, in this case revealing specific relationships and negotiations regarding resource access, ethnicity, state authority and livelihood strategies.</jats:p>
