Description
This insightful examination delves into the complex interplay of religion, politics, and ethnic identity among the Chin people of Burma. Lian H. Sakhong meticulously navigates the historical context, shedding light on the socio-political dynamics that have shaped the Chin community's unique identity over generations. He investigates how religion, particularly Christianity, has served as both a unifying force and a source of contention within the intricacies of Burmese society.
Sakhong's research offers a nuanced perspective on the challenges faced by the Chin in asserting their identity amidst a backdrop of political oppression and ethnic marginalization. The narrative reveals the resilience of the Chin people as they strive to preserve their cultural heritage while engaging with the broader national discourse. Within these pages, readers will find a rich tapestry of experiences that illuminate the ongoing quest for recognition, rights, and self-determination among the Chin in Burma.
