This book centres on various contestations in Myanmar society and illustrates the ways in which these are reflected in civil society.



The book offers a concise overview of recent political developments in the country, from the short-lived attempts at democratization to the 2021 military coup, and analyses the involvement of various civil society actors, as well as their international supporters. It incorporates multiple identities and fault lines in Myanmar society and explains how these influence diverse perceptions, framing and agenda setting as political developments unfold.



The book provides an up-to-date overview of the main identities and contestations within Myanmars civil society and, by extension, within Myanmar society as a whole. It also gives recommendations to donors, policy makers and researchers wishing to better understand and support local civil society actors operating in repressive environments.

Recenzijos

Matelskis compelling empirical and theoretical insights into Myanmars civil society ... expand conventional understandings of civil society in ways especially relevant for contexts outside of North America and Europe. Lisa Brooten, Southern Illinois University Maaike Matelskis nuanced and sensitive account of civil society during a key political period in Myanmar helps us better understand the dynamics of public engagement during that complicated decade of transition. It also provides a compelling picture of how these networks and actors have responded to the military coup, and insight into the important role they will play in a future Myanmar. Matthew J Walton, University of Toronto
