Description

On February 1, 2021, Myanmar’s military coup ended a decade of civilian rule, sparking widespread civil disobedience and armed resistance. Forging the Nation: Land Struggles in Myanmar’s Transition Period analyzes how democratic institutions were built through land politics from 2011-2020. Given Myanmar’s agriculture-based economy and the “global land rush,” land serves as a crucial lens to understand the country’s transitions toward democracy, peace, and open markets, exploring how state and societal actors negotiated land issues amidst ethnic politics and global capital pressures.
