Democracy, Despotism, and Genocide: Myanmar (Burma) in the 2010s

  • Summary

  • Why did a military coup take place in early 2021? Why do we constantly see headlines about ethnic cleansing and other atrocities in the country? And why on Earth does it have two different names?

    Joining us on one of the most important episodes we've ever done is Dr. David Brenner, a Myanmar expert and lecturer at the University of Sussex who wrote the book Rebel Politics: A Political Sociology of Armed Struggle in Myanmar’s Borderlands.

    And shoutout to Sam Black for generously giving us permission to use his song, "Good Deeds," in this episode.
