Event: Reconsidering the Burmese Way to Socialism (21 Sept)

Where is Myanmar heading for? Regarding the nation-state building in Myanmar (Burma), this seminar will focus on the period of Burmese Way to Socialism, when the state philosophy was re-examined and a ‘Burmese Way’ socialist state was built. What was the political and cultural context of this period in Burma’s modern and contemporary history? How was Burmese people’s desire for liberation from colonialism developed in this thought? What will emerge from the comparison with Poland in Eastern Europe? We would like to examine from various perspectives at this seminar.

Sophia University is hosting a hybrid event with Kei Nemoto, Michał Lubina, and Toru Kawabe to re-analyze the political and cultural meaning of the 26 year ‘experiment’
