V&R Unipress Storfall fur die gute Nachbarschaft?: Deutsche
Book SynopsisText in German. The oil crisis in autumn 1973 is considered to be the decisive turning point in the 1970s. It painfully demonstrated the dependence of the western industrialized countries on Arab oil. Using the example of Franco-German relations, the author asks whether there was cooperation in energy policy and how this was actually structured. On the one hand, using historical primary sources, she examines the behavior and political strategies of the German and French governments. On the other hand, the search for multilateral solutions is presented. Case studies provide insights into the civil society level. This first systematic analysis of Franco-German relations in the field of energy policy shows that energy policy was of great importance for the bilateral relationship, even if the results of Franco-German cooperation remained extremely low.

Silkworm Books / Trasvin Publications LP The Ninth Panchen Lama (1883-1937): A Life at the
Book SynopsisThis biography of the Ninth Panchen Lama, the second highest spiritual authority in Tibetan Buddhism, offers new insights into the tumultuous history of the relations between China and Tibet at the start of the twentieth century. It demonstrates how the Panchen Lama's flight from his monastery on the night of December 22, 1923, remains an essential characterizing event of Tibet's modern history. His flight from his country set the stage for Chinese Republican, and later Communist, control over the selection of his successors, with repercussions even today for Sino-Tibetan relations. This is the first publication in an innovative new series of research work on Asia, a collaboration between the École Française d'Extrême-Orient (EFEO) and Silkworm Books to translate French publications for an English-language readership.

NUS Press Unraveling Myanmar's Transition: Progress,
Book SynopsisThe optimism provoked by Myanmar's political reforms in 2011-2012 has now given way to a sense that the uneven nature of change in this nation of 54 million has lead to instability and uncertainty. The liberalization of critical sectors and expansion of certain freedoms - such as political and legal opportunities for expression and mobilization - contrasts with the entrenchment of structural problems. It becomes ever more difficult to tackle ethnic marginalization and conflict, over-dependence on natural resource extraction, inadequate public services, and problems of under-capacity in the civilian bureaucracy.The result is the build up of a toxic environment in which classism, racism, and bigotry threaten to rend Myanmar's already delicate social fabric. The contributors to this volume bring unique perspectives and methodologies to bear to unravel Myanmar's tangled challenges. Whether it is through studying corruption by analyzing the country's real estate bubble, assessing civil society advocacy capacity against extractive industries, or gauging the strength (and surprising weakness) of Myanmar's military, the volume employs unconventional approaches and analytical rigor to address a fundamental question: is Myanmar itself unraveling?Trade Review“Variously wide-ranging and penetrating, the essays assembled in this volume examine Myanmar's short decade of dramatic political and social change in all its complexity. . . . Dense with original research and fresh interpretations of what is happening in Myanmar and why, they bode well for the future of scholarship on this no-longer overlooked country at the nexus of South and Southeast Asia.”
