Ethno-nationalism and Participation in Myanmar: Views from Shan State and Beyond

    Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

    Abstract

    While the spate of political changes often credited to the actions of President Thein Sein, together with Daw Aung San Suu Kyi's political ascent from house arrest to the halls of parliament, have commanded the lion's share of the international media's limelight on Myanmar, more serious attention needs to be paid to non-Burman ethnic nationalities, which are estimated to comprise just over one-third of the country's population of approximately 55 million people.
