Myanmar is in crisis. Six years on from the election of Myanmar's first civilian government in more than half a decade, the military has initiated a bold power grab.
Hundreds have been detained, but the military may have underestimated how strongly their people would have reacted to having their rights trampled. Amidst a popular uprising that may well become the largest in the country's history, and with the military now with their back to the wall, there's much concern that popular protests will be met with a violent crackdown.
This podcast episode was recorded before the military coup, and speaks to the topic of people power for change in Myanmar. The conversation is with Professor Danny Burns, from the Institute of Development Studies at the University of Sussex, and Stephen Gray, Co-Founder and Director of Adapt, and reflects on methods for popular participation in the country's peace process.
