Epilogue: Controlling or Playing Politics? --IndexPraetorians, Profiteers or Professionals? contributes to the ongoing renaissance in scholarship on Southeast Asia's armed forces and their political, social and economic roles. This renaissance comes in an era in which the states of the region, and the societies and economies that they govern, have grown complex beyond all recognition. Nevertheless, understanding those states' armies remains crucial. Emphasizing the ideologies and economic activities of the militaries of two large Mainland Southeast Asian neighbours, this volume transcends cliches about coups, coercion, caudillos and kings. Its findings will challenge the thinking of even long-time observers of the region, not least through its comparative perspective and the fresh understanding of the roles and orientations of the armed forces of Myanmar and Thailand that that perspective suggests.BurmaArmed ForcesThailandArmed Forces355.009591Montesano Michael JohnIII,1961-Chong TerenceKongkirati PrajakTaylor Robert H.1943-UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910511470403321Praetorians, profiteers or professionals2551651UNINA01151nam0 22002771i 450 VAN0003733720240806100403.92620050621d1988 |0itac50 baengGB||||b |||||Master paintings from the Phillips Collection, WashingtonHayward Gallery, London 19 May-14 August 1988LondonSouth Bank Centre1988239 p.ill.
