Book Synopsis Prisms on the Golden Pagoda by : Thamarr Taman
Download or read book Prisms on the Golden Pagoda written by Thamarr Taman and published by NUS Press. This book was released on 2014-08-18 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as the prismatic effects of glass mosaics or mirrors produce the spectrums of colour that give Myanmar’s pagodas their glittering iridescence, Prisms on the Golden Pagoda offers a spectrum of views on the country’s national reconciliation process. Because many of Myanmar’s outlying ethnic groups straddle the country’s borders with neighbouring countries in South and Southeast Asia and with China, the outcome of this process is crucial not only for the country’s current domestic liberalization but also for regional geopolitics. The editor of this volume, Kyaw Yin Hlaing is a US-trained academic who currently serves as an advisor to Myanmar's President. He has assembled contributions from veteran activists such as the Shan leader U Shwe Ohn, the Chin politician Lian H. Sakhong, Widura Thakin Chit Maung, once leader of Burma's "Red Socialists", and Thamarr Taman, formerly a senior civil servant. Commentary by the editor, and by Robert H Taylor and British diplomat-turned activist Derek Tonkin, explains the context and significance of these materials. By showing how the national reconciliation effort has been viewed inside the country, the contributors provide an important insider’s perspective on Myanmar’s difficult legacies of violence and separatism.

Book Synopsis Ethnic Diversity and Reconciliation by : Arend van Dorp
Download or read book Ethnic Diversity and Reconciliation written by Arend van Dorp and published by Langham Publishing. This book was released on 2022-10-31 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forces of division, conflict, and fear threaten to separate us from the neighbor who does not look, act, or pray like us. However, followers of Christ are charged with embodying a unity that celebrates difference rather than fleeing from it. Ethnic Diversity and Reconciliation explores the implications of the church’s radical call to inclusive community in the context of Myanmar’s long history of ethnic conflict. Dr. Arend van Dorp outlines the theological foundations for understanding the church’s mandate as a diverse and unified missional body, while also engaging the very real challenges posed to this mandate by the cultural, religious, and historical realities faced by Christians in Myanmar. He demonstrates that while the challenges are vast, so is the potential for transformation and reconciliation when the church takes up its mantle and bears faithful witness to God’s love in a fractured world.
Book Synopsis Eyewitness to Early Reform in Myanmar by : Trevor Wilson
Download or read book Eyewitness to Early Reform in Myanmar written by Trevor Wilson and published by . This book was released on 2016-03 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By 2000, a ruthless military regime had ruled Myanmar for more than a decade, polarising opinion inside and outside Burma/Myanmar -- with Western countries locked into non-UN sanctions and Asian countries and the rest of the world locked into unenthusiastic cooperation with Myanmar. While the United Nations and its agencies faced numerous obstacles as they sought to encourage national reconciliation in Myanmar, conditions in Myanmar were slowly starting to change. With a reform faction in charge, the military regime itself after 1999 slowly began experimenting with modest changes, before committing in 2008 to transfer power via a constitutional referendum and national elections, both of which it effectively controlled. This book provides the first eyewitness account of the early reform experiments.

Book Synopsis Towards a Spirituality of Reconciliation in the Diocese of Loikaw, Myanmar by : Day Phe
Download or read book Towards a Spirituality of Reconciliation in the Diocese of Loikaw, Myanmar written by Day Phe and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The British left Myanmar in 1948. Their leaving the country ended many years of colonialism by foreigners. Colonialism, however, did not die out. It re-emerged in 1962. This time, the colonizers are not from outside but from within Myanmar. The military junta took over the country and has been in-charge of governance till the present time. Though they are locals, they are considered the new elites and new colonialists in the country. Myanmar is a classic example of a country that is torn by strife, hostilities, and conflicts. The reasons are may. Among them is the tribal conflict between the minority and the majority. Such conflict came about as a result of a big historical mistake committed by the British colonizers. As they had done in other parts of the world, they had put different tribes together to form one nation. Forty-eight years of tribal conflicts brought about much havoc to the Karenni tribe and their natural hatitat. The Diocese of Loikaw cannot close its eyes to the grim realities happening among the people. It must get involved in making the State of Karenni a better and different world to live in. It must take upon its shoulder the mission of saving humanity and the earth in the region. To spur this mission to its realization, the spirituality of reconciliation is offered as a model for the people concerned to take up and initiate. It is a multifaceted and multi-dimensional spirituality that can be taken up to rebuild and heal the brokenness of humanity and the earth in the region. Healing and reconciliation are the necessary prerequisites. Spirituality is more powerful than the guns and weapons of destruction that are used to solve their current problems.
Book Synopsis Karaoke Fascism by : Monique Skidmore
Download or read book Karaoke Fascism written by Monique Skidmore and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2012-02-24 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To come to Burma, one of the few places where despotism still dominates, is to take both a physical and an emotional journey and, like most Burmese, to become caught up in the daily management of fear. Based on Monique Skidmore's experiences living in the capital city of Rangoon, Karaoke Fascism is the first ethnography of fear in Burma and provides a sobering look at the psychological strategies employed by the Burmese people in order to survive under a military dictatorship that seeks to invade and dominate every aspect of life. Skidmore looks at the psychology and politics of fear under the SLORC and SPDC regimes. Encompassing the period of antijunta student street protests, her work describes a project of authoritarian modernity, where Burmese people are conscripted as army porters and must attend mass rallies, chant slogans, construct roads, and engage in other forms of forced labor. In a harrowing portrayal of life deep within an authoritarian state, recovering heroin addicts, psychiatric patients, girl prostitutes, and poor and vulnerable women in forcibly relocated townships speak about fear, hope, and their ongoing resistance to four decades of oppression. "Karaoke fascism" is a term the author uses to describe the layers of conformity that Burmese people present to each other and, more important, to the military regime. This complex veneer rests on resistance, collaboration, and complicity, and describes not only the Burmese form of oppression but also the Burmese response to a life of domination. Providing an inside look at the madness and the militarization of the city, Skidmore argues that the weight of fear, the anxiety of constant vulnerability, and the numbing demands of the State upon individuals force Burmese people to cast themselves as automata; they deliberately present lifeless hollow bodies for the State's use, while their minds reach out into the cosmos for an array of alternate realities. Skidmore raises ethical and methodological questions about conducting research on fear when doing so evokes the very emotion in question, in both researcher and informant.
