8. Stoking the Flames of Ethnic Politics? The Double Bind of Indigeneity in Post/Neo-colonial Myanmar

Author

Morton, Micah

Subjects
Indigenous peoples -- Political aspects -- Political activity, Anthropology/archeology/folklore, Regional focus/area studies, Sociology and social work, United Nations -- Political activity -- Political aspects
Abstract

In this article, I discuss the challenges ethnically non-Burman activists in Myanmar encounter in articulating a politics of Indigeneity in the face of Myanmar's post/neo-colonial policies and discourse of national unity and equality. I highlight the limitations and potentials of efforts to reframe the global concept of Indigeneity in a non-European settler colonial context where the state dismisses that concept by declaring all its citizens 'indigenous'. I argue that Indigenous activists in Myanmar are caught in a particular kind of double bind that makes it difficult to make any claim of distinction as 'Indigenous Peoples' relative to dominant ethnic Burmans. Keywords: Indigeneity, political activism, transnationalism, double bind, non-European settler colonialism, Myanmar., We have a working definition of Indigenous Peoples and it excludes the dominant Burmans. Yet we must be careful. Many are still not ready to hear us. For now it [...]
