Description

On 1 February 2021, Myanmar experienced the third coup d’état in its modern history. Unprecedented strength was displayed by Myanmar civil society as it embarked on years-long waves of protest to fight back against these new authoritarian drives. Where has this strength come from? This book argues that Myanmar’s force of resistance is deeply rooted in Myanmar university spaces. Students, teachers, professors and activists are leading the protests towards the first Myanmar revolution of ideas, a cultural revolution that is unfolding parallel to a political revolution. By following the decades-long struggle of universities in Myanmar for social and political change, this book reflects on the experiences of key actors in the Myanmar educational arena - rectors, professors, students and activists – to offer a unique insight into the long-lasting struggle of education against authoritarianism. By exploring the social and political struggles of Myanmar through the lens of higher education resistance, this book offers original insights into and a compelling narrative about the life of the country after the 2021 coup d’état, an event that continues to puzzle the international community.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
