About This Book

In these nine papers, some originally presented at the 2002 International Burma Studies Conference in Gothenberg, aspects of Burma's complex ethnic dynamics and diversity are explored. Boundaries and social space, the impacts of religious conversion, ethnic elements in the refugee camps in Thailand and the military government's policy of "Myanmarification" are among the subjects discussed. Aspects of the Kachin, Karen, Kayah, Mon, Shan and Chin experiences and identities are described and some sociological analysis applied. With reference, bibliography and index.
