CONSTITUTIONALISM AND LEGAL CHANGE IN MYANMAR

摘要

This edited collection of 12 chapters (and an editorial preface and note) originates from a workshop on "Constitutionalism and Legal Change in Myanmar" held at the Centre for Asian Legal Studies at the National University of Singapore. The book nicely gathers overviews of topics linked to Myanmar's 2008 Constitution, all of which were extensively debated both before and after the country's 2011 political transition: federalism and the peace process (chapters 1, 3, 7); criminal procedure, rule of law, and human rights (chapters 2,8,11,12); political and constitutional change (chapters 4, 5); the Constitutional Tribunal (chapters 9, 10); and elections (chapter 6).
