Fabrik sosial masyarakat ladang terbentuk dalam ruang budaya yang bersifat kapsul yang melalui proses sejarah, ekploitasi, peminggiran dan persisihan. Objektif utama tesis ini ialah untuk menunjukkan keadaan "budaya estet" yang menjanakan satu 'habitus' ladang yang mengongkong serta mengasingkan pekerja ladang dalam satu sistem yang menyukarkan interaksi luar. Kedua, tesis ini menunjukkan bahawa 'habitus' estet itu sendiri merupakan kekangan yang menyekatkan kebolehan mereka dalam membentuk rangkaian~ sosial yang barn diluar 'habitus' mereka. This thesis presents a micro-sociological study of socio-cultural consequences of the changing landscape of the Malaysian plantation that have undergone significant development and restructuring. Changes in terms of recapitalisation and reorientation of the plantation towards capital intensive ventures has directly affected the social fabric of the plantation community. One of the most significant change is the displacement of workers when the plantation is restructured by closure. The thesis seeks to analyse the extend and the capacity of the displaced workers, to adapt and adjust to the new social environment while burdened by the constraints of the historically embedded encapsulating social and cultural sub-system of the 'estate culture', noted for its culture of poverty habitus. 2009-05 Thesis http://eprints.usm.my/35908/ http://eprints.usm.my/35908/1/PEARL_SHEILA_A.P_D_WILSON_%28KHK%29_%28NN24%29.pdf application/pdf en public masters Universiti Sains Malaysia Pusat Pengajian Pendidikan Jarak Jauh (School of Distance Education)
