The Struggle Between Activists, Democratic Leaders and Aid Workers

1. Asian Studies Amongst area studies scholars, a number of books examine the axis of struggle between authoritarian governments and citizen movements in Asia, including Ma and Cheng's (2017) work in the Global Asia series. And in Myanmar contests between Burmese military elites, ethnic minorities, and the democracy movement in Myanmar have also been closely examined (Roman and Holliday 2019, Lintner 2012, Callahan, 2003, Steinberg 1990, 2001, Rotberg 1998, Fink 2001, Thawnghmung 2004, Houtman 1999, Sadan 2013). Yet the distinct contribution of this book is in addressing other axes of democratic struggles in Myanmar, those within the democracy movement, and between the movement and its international allies. Walton's 2016 work Buddhism, Politics and Political Thought in Myanmar provides the account most relevant to the contribution of the book, through examining the role of Buddhism in the country's politics and political thinking. Yet this book does not explicitly engage with contemporary activists and political leaders and how meanings of democracy are used as political tools to forward the agenda of particular coalitions of actors. In this sense, Myanmar's other struggles for democracy provides a fresh and unique account of the country's transitions, which will be of interest to readers both theoretically and empirically. 2. Democratization Myanmar's Other Struggles for Democracy engages widely with works from the democratization literature and engages with these volumes theoretically, through extending attention to the role of narrative in meanings of democracy, and empirically, through deeply informed, long-term inquiry into the case of Myanmar. The book draws upon the theoretical works of Whitehead (2002) Democratization, and Kurki (2005) Democratic Futures: Revisioning democracy promotion. The book also sits within an emerging stream of interpretive studies of meanings of democracy that are grounded in in-depth contextual analysis (Frechette 2007, Michelutti 2008, Browers 2006, Bell 2009, Baaz and Lilja 2014, Sadiki 2009, Paley 2001). Of most note is the way that this book extends Schaffer's seminal work Democracy in Translation (1997) by introducing narrative theory into the task of examining meanings of democracy and their contests. 3. Interpretive methodology In illuminating other these struggles for democracy, the book makes innovative use of narrative theory. Narrative theory has been widely drawn on within the social sciences and yet, surprisingly, has not been systematically applied in interpretive studies of meanings of democracy. Myanmar's Other Struggles for Democracy argues that narrative theory can reveal new dimensions to the way democracy is given meaning by political actors. The book uncovers diverging constructions of plot and characters, situates these narratives in the cultural and historical context of Myanmar, and exposes the often-covert conceptual contests between political actors over the meaning of democracy. The book provides a model for the way interpretive scholars in other contexts might use a narrative approach to elucidate contrasting meanings of democracy.
