This edited volume addresses the dynamics of the legal system of
Myanmar/Burma in the context of the dramatic but incomplete
transition to democracy that formally began in 2011. It includes
contributions from leading scholars in the field on a range of key
legal issues now facing Myanmar, such as judicial independence,
constitutional law, human rights and institutional reform. It
features chapters on the legal history of Myanmar; electoral
reform; the role of the judiciary; economic reforms; and the state
of company law. It also includes chapters that draw on the
experiences of other countries to contextualise Myanmar's
transition to democracy in a comparative setting, including
Myanmar's participation in regional bodies such as ASEAN. This
topical book comes at a critical juncture in Myanmar's legal
development and will be an invaluable resource for students and
teachers seeking greater understanding of the legal system of
Myanmar. It will also be vital reading for a wide range of
government, business and civil society organisations seeking to
re-engage with Myanmar, as it navigates a difficult transition
toward democracy and the rule of law.
