Erin Lin, Associate Professor of Political Science, and author of
When the Bombs Stopped: The Legacy of War in Rural Cambodia discusses her research. She focuses on the the enduring impact on Cambodian agriculture and economic development of unexploded ordnance from US secret bombings during the Vietnam War. The bombs remain dangerous, contributing to injuries and deaths, while severely affecting agricultural productivity and household incomes. She describes the extensive efforts required for de-mining and the socio-political challenges faced by farmers, such as land grabbing.
