Burma's struggle against British imperialism (1885-1895)
The book Burma’s Struggle Against British Imperialism, 1885–1895 by Ni Ni Myint presents an in-depth analysis of the early period of resistance to British colonialism in Burma after the annexation of Upper Burma in 1885. The author traces the background of the fall of the Konbaung Dynasty and the consequences of political restructuring, including armed resistance in various regions such as the Burmese highlands, the Shan hills, Kachin, and Chin. In addition, this book explores the factors that hampered the anti-colonial movement, such as divisions among local leaders, the superior military power of the British, and the colonial strategy of co-optation. Ni Ni Myint also discusses the role of national leaders and the aristocracy, as well as the social and cultural impact of British conquest, including how Burmese identity was rearticulated in the face of colonial domination. The book is supplemented with illustrations, maps, and historical notes, making it an important reference for understanding this critical phase in the journey of Burmese nationalism.
