During a century of colonialism Burma was plundered for its natural resources and remade as a racial hierarchy. Over decades of dictatorship it suffered civil war repression and deep poverty. Today Burma faces a mountain of challenges: crony capitalism exploding inequality rising ethnonationalism extreme racial violence climate change multibillion dollar criminal networks and the power of China next door. Thant Myint-U shows how the country's past shapes its recent and almost unbelievable attempt to create a new democracy in the heart of Asia and helps to answer the big questions: Can this multicultural country of 55 million succeed? And what does Burma's story really tell us about the most critical issues of our time?
