Description

Explore the unique history of Burma's former capital with State and Society in Modern Rangoon. While many Asian cities face homogenization due to globalization, Rangoon maintains a distinct identity shaped by its turbulent past. This book examines how the city evolved from a site of ancient Buddhist devotion to a colonial administrative center. Learn about the impact of the British occupation in 1852, which transformed the city into a modern port based on Western designs. The text provides a deep look at how the Shwedagon Pagoda remains a central part of national life, even as the city transitioned through different eras of governance. This volume is an essential resource for those interested in the social and political shifts that defined one of Southeast Asia's most significant urban centers.
