The central purpose of this book is to examine answers to questions
regarding the kind of political system that Myanmar urgently needs to
develop. Myanmar has suffered the endless civil war for decades since
regaining its sovereignty in 1948. Therefore, the lead research
question is: What kind of federal democratic model is the most
suitable for Myanmar and what kind of political arrangements should be
in place? To examine answers for this question, the author employed a
descriptive–qualitative approach and triangulation research method
including interviews with politicians and activists in Myanmar, field
observation and analysis of historical documents. The author examines
the contemporary political issues of Myanmar in term of federalism to
ensure that analysis of this book does not omit the actual political
process performed by the government. As a result of the study, Myanmar
needs a tailored federal model which is the best to accommodate the
ethnically divided country that would enhance solutions to ethnic
conflicts and end the civil war.
