| Summary / Abstract (Note) | In recent years, the changing power dynamics of the past military rulers to civilian way of functioning has raised number of questions in the discourse of international politics. This shift of power structure has evolved on account of a number of important factors; the autocratic rule of the military junta, the absence of democratic norms, violation of Human Rights, followed by under development on account of international sanctions, pressure from the Western world to follow democratic norms, the inclusion of Myanmar into ASEAN and the pressure of the latter on the former to establish democracy, remains the prime reason for the weak economic development. The shifting paradigm of military rulers to civilian government since 2011 followed by the entry of various actors like USA, India, Japan, and China shifted the entire gamut to a different direction. This article will highlight the role of ASEAN over the years with reference to Myanmar's new government and assess the implication in India. |
