Summary / Abstract (Note) | The author argues that Western policy towards Myanmar over the last twenty years has been not only demonstrably ineffective, but has also completely ignored the admittedly somewhat hesitant efforts of the military regime to improve relations with the West. Although the regime has been presentationally inept, the generals do seem to be moving towards some sort of elections in 2010. The West will need to decide how to respond to those elections. Continuing total condemnation of the regime may not be the best option. |
