Description:
This book examines the trajectory of federalization in Myanmar's political development, evaluating the attitudes of different political actors towards, and negotiation strategies for, designing federalism.
Review Quotes:
"Though a coup in 2021 ended negotiations for a federated Myanmar, the dream of federalism sustains resistance to dictatorship. Any political solution to the country's problems depends on its realisation. In The Politics of Federalization in Myanmar Dulyapak Preecharush explains why. Comparative, systematic, thorough--this book is replete with lessons for would-be federalists, and for those who study them."
