Schouten, Maria Johanna ChristinaDiscussion of the economic and social history of Minahasa (northern Sulawesi), focusing on the cultivation and marketing of cash crops in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

Also, there was variety in the areas within Minahasa in which these respective crops thrived, thus bringing about regional variation of social and economic conditions.
