Burma/Myanmar: what everyone needs to know
Burma/Myanmar: What Everyone Needs to Know by David I. Steinberg provides a concise introduction to Burma/Myanmar, a country with an ancient civilization, extraordinary ethnic diversity, and a strategically important location between China and India. Over the past two decades, the country has frequently attracted international attention due to political crises, military authoritarian rule, one of the world’s longest-running insurgencies, the prominent role of Buddhist monks, and major natural disasters. Using a clear question-and-answer format, the book explains Burma/Myanmar’s current situation while placing it within the broader context of Burmese history and culture. Steinberg examines key issues including colonial history, ethnic conflict, military government, the democracy movement, foreign relations, and the country’s significance in Chinese and Indian defense and economic considerations. Written by one of the leading authorities on the region, this balanced and accessible work serves as an essential reference for general readers seeking a comprehensive understanding of Burma/Myanmar.
