GOMA PINILLA, Daniel. Monks, students and military: The 1974 crisis and the beginning of the end for Burma’s Socialist Military Regime. Estud. Asia Áfr. [online]. 2018, vol.53, n.3, pp.601-626. ISSN 2448-654X.  https://doi.org/10.24201/eaa.v53i3.2323.

Often reduced to the footnotes of contemporary research on Burma, the events of 1974 were crucial in the country’s recent history and subsequent political development. The anti-government protests were violently crushed by the army but marked the first major evidence of the difficulties facing the ‘Burmese Way to Socialism’, a revolutionary and utopian military experiment developed since 1962, and the precedent of the 1988 revolution that would end General Ne Win’s military regime.

Palabras llave : Burma; Burmese Way to Socialism; students; economic crisis; army.
