Return of the Junta : Why Myanmar’s Military Must Go Back to the Barracks, Paperback / softback Book

Return of the Junta : Why Myanmar’s Military Must Go Back to the Barracks Paperback / softback

Part of the Asian Arguments series

Paperback / softback

Description

On the first day of February 2021, Myanmar’s military grabbed power in a coup d’etat, ending a decade of reforms that were supposed to break the shackles of military rule in Myanmar.

Protests across the country were met with a brutal crackdown that shocked the world but were a familiar response from an institution that has ruled the country with violence and terror for decades. Return of the Junta is a detailed account of the ways that Myanmar’s military – the Tamatdaw - has maintained control over its people despite a decade of supposed reform.

In this detailed account, drawing on first-hand accounts from activists, jouralists and politicians, Oliver Slow explores the measures the military has used to keep hold of power and the motivations of those now rising up against its rule.

The book asks the question: what needs to be done to remove the military from power in Myanmar once and for all?
