Jacques Bertrand offers a comparative-historical analysis of five
nationalist conflicts over several decades in Southeast Asia. Using
a theoretical framework to explain variance over time and across
cases, he challenges and refines existing debates on democracy's
impact and shows that, while democratization significantly reduces
violent insurgency over time, it often introduces pernicious
effects that fail to resolve conflict and contribute to maintaining
deep nationalist grievances. Drawing on years of detailed
fieldwork, Bertrand analyses the paths that led from secessionist
mobilization to a range of outcomes. These include persistent state
repression for Malay Muslims in Thailand, low level violence under
a top-down 'special autonomy' for Papuans, reframing of mobilizing
from nationalist to indigenous peoples in the Cordillera, a long
and broken path to an untested broad autonomy for the Moros and
relatively successful broad autonomy for Acehnese.
