Hidden book Myanmar

Written by Master Lita Brawong.

After looking far from home to Shwedagon Pagoda, we were very interested in Burmese history and politics, and we went to find a book to read, and found this book written by A. Lita.

For us, this book is about politics in Myanmar and the relationship with Thailand, which has a lot of interesting issues to read. Wow, some things are unthinkable. It's fun to read, easy to understand, concise, not boring.

Visualize politics, looping use of power, degeneration and uncertainty very well.

... Read moreหลังจากได้อ่านหนังสือ Hidden Myanmar ที่เขียนโดย อาจารย์ ลลิตา หาญวงษ์ ทำให้ผมเข้าใจประวัติศาสตร์และการเมืองของเมียนมามากขึ้นอย่างลึกซึ้ง โดยอย่างที่หนังสือเล่มนี้เน้นย้ำ คือการเมืองในเมียนมามีลักษณะเป็นวงจรซ้ำซ้อนที่มักนำมาสู่ความไม่แน่นอนและความเสื่อมโทรมของระบบอำนาจ จากที่ได้ศึกษาประวัติในเล่ม เห็นได้ชัดว่าการเมืองพม่านั้นมีความเกี่ยวพันอย่างมากกับประเด็นชาติพันธุ์และการแย่งชิงอำนาจภายในประเทศ รวมถึงบทบาทของชาติพันธุ์ย่อยๆ ที่มีผลต่อเสถียรภาพของรัฐ การแบ่งแยกและปกครองของอาณานิคมอังกฤษเป็นปัจจัยหนึ่งที่ส่งผลให้เกิดความขัดแย้งระหว่างกลุ่มชาติพันธุ์ ซึ่งยังคงทิ้งร่องรอยไว้ในสังคมและการเมืองจนถึงปัจจุบัน ส่วนที่ผมรู้สึกว้าว คือการที่หนังสือเล่มนี้สามารถเชื่อมโยงประวัติศาสตร์ของเมียนมากับความสัมพันธ์ระหว่างไทยและเมียนมาในบริบทสงครามเย็น รวมทั้งการเมืองระหว่างประเทศในเอเชียตะวันออกเฉียงใต้ ทำให้เห็นภาพรวมของภูมิภาคที่ซับซ้อนและมีผลกระทบต่อกันอย่างลึกซึ้ง เช่น บทบาทของสหรัฐอเมริกาในฐานะมหาอำนาจ และการต่อสู้กับคอมมิวนิสต์ในช่วงเวลาดังกล่าว ผมเองเคยเดินทางไปยังเจดีย์ชเวดากอง ซึ่งเป็นสถานที่ที่มีความสำคัญทางศาสนาและวัฒนธรรมของเมียนมา การอ่านหนังสือเล่มนี้ทำให้ผมเห็นความลึกซึ้งของบริบททางการเมืองและประวัติของประเทศนี้มากกว่าที่เห็นผ่านสายตานักท่องเที่ยวทั่วไป อีกสิ่งที่ชวนให้ผมตั้งคำถามคือเรื่องของกองกำลังชาติพันธุ์และปัญหาการค้ายาเสพติดที่เชื่อมโยงกับเขตชายแดนไทย-เมียนมา หนังสือแสดงให้เห็นว่าความซับซ้อนทางการเมืองไม่ได้จำกัดอยู่แค่ในเมียนมาเท่านั้น แต่ยังมีอิทธิพลและผลกระทบต่อความมั่นคงของไทยอย่างชัดเจน ในฐานะคนที่สนใจประวัติศาสตร์และการเมืองของประเทศเพื่อนบ้าน ผมมองว่า Hidden Myanmar เป็นหนังสือที่ให้ความรู้และแรงบันดาลใจให้ได้คิดวิเคราะห์เกี่ยวกับภูมิภาคนี้ในมุมที่กว้างขึ้นและลึกซึ้งขึ้นอย่างแท้จริง
