Since 1988, when Burma's military rulers crushed a popular uprising, Western governments have promoted democracy as a panacea for the country's manifold development problems. This book puts forward an argument that Western democracy rhetoric has not supplied the solution to these problems. It proposes an alternative model of critical engagement.
