In this book he presents an account of the structure and functions of Myanmar’s deep state, along with a tale of personal ambition, rivalry and ruthless power politics worthy of John Le Carre. A thoroughly educative, entertaining and intriguing read.\"\" — Professor Michael Wesley, Dean, College of Asia and the Pacific, The Australian National University \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"\"Andrew Selth has once again amply illustrated the depth and penetration of his study of Myanmar\/Burma and its institutions. This work on the more recent aspects of the country’s intelligence apparatus goes beyond a masterful and comprehensive analysis of the Burmese intelligence community, and probes the social and institutional bases of the attitudes giving rise to that critical aspect of power. We are once again in Dr Selth’s debt. This is required reading for serious observers of the Burmese scene.\"\" — David I. Steinberg, Distinguished Professor of Asian Studies Emeritus, Georgetown University \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"\"By lifting the lid on a pervasive yet secretive intelligence apparatus, Andrew Selth makes an outstanding contribution to Myanmar Studies. For scholars and practitioners alike, this book provides an essential history of a security state that remains powerful even during the transition away from overt authoritarian rule.\"\" — Professor Ian Holliday, Vice-President (Teaching and Learning), The University of Hong Kong\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"ISEAS - Yusof Ishak Institute","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52676820697368,"sku":"9789814843775","price":20.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/secrets-and-power-in-myanmar-intelligence-and-the-fall-of-general-khin-nyunt-paperback-softback-9789814843775","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
