Return of the Junta: Why Myanmar’s Military Must Go Back to the Barracks - Asian Arguments
Slow, Oliver (ASEAN Parliamentarians for Human Rights (APHR))
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 strategies that Myanmar's military - the Tamatdaw - has used to maintain control over its people despite a decade of supposed reform. In this deeply reported account, based on first-hand accounts from across the country, 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?
