About this product
Product Information
The Peacock's Children records the struggle for independence, democracy and human rights in Burma from the fall of the monarchy and the British occupation, up to present times. For the initial period of the study, the author draws on valuable material concerning the British colonial period and its response to nationalist and student protests, drawn mainly from the archives of the British Library-Indian and Oriental Collection, London. Post-colonial material is complemented by the author's own extensive travel and personal interviews in Burma, Thailand and Australia. The account is at times a harrowing one, underscoring the repeatedly dashed hopes for freedom, as well as the confusion and contradictions among Burmese themselves as to the most effective path to be followed to achieve true independence. Regrettably, despite the ongoing struggle, sacrifice and bloodshed of many heroic Burmese, little seems to have changed over the past several decades, for Burmese democracy seems as elusive today as ever. An essential record and valuable reference for all concerned about the fate of this tormented country and its oppressed people. Book jacket.
