▼ Myanmar is a country with many complex political and humanitarian issues. While it is rich in natural resources, it remains one of the poorest and most undemocratic countries in Asia. It has a history of ethnic and political division and many of the antagonists are still to find lasting reconciliation. Myanmar has been controlled by military juntas and former army generals since a coup in 1962. The focus of the regime is security and the preservation of its position as the ruling elite, at the expense of democracy and the humanitarian needs of the general population. The international response to the humanitarian plight of the Myanmar people has been mixed and the provision of international aid to Myanmar has become a highly contentious issue. This thesis seeks to critically examine international aid to Myanmar so as to determine whether under present conditions humanitarian assistance should, and can, be effectively provided to the country. In doing so recent theories relating to humanitarian assistance and intervention are reviewed and the historical and political circumstances that have influenced the humanitarian situation in Myanmar are explored. A description of the current humanitarian situation and levels of international assistance is provided, and donor, practitioner and activist perspectives on international assistance are determined. The results of this study show that Myanmar has serious humanitarian needs. Despite being a difficult environment in which to operate, with complex political problems, it is still possible to conduct effective programmes in the country. Existing programmes do not reach all those in need, nor do current programmes address many of the core problems. International assistance does help fill the gap left largely unattended by the junta. Any lasting political solution requires the participation of all stakeholders in the country, especially the military. As the junta is unlikely to relinquish political control, regardless of pressure levelled against the senior generals, the need for ongoing international aid remains obvious. When all the considerations about providing aid to Myanmar are taken into account, it is apparent from this research that the conditions are serious enough to justify that there is a humanitarian imperative to help, and that there are sound opportunities to do so.

▼ Japanese aid has generally been understood to focus on developmentalist infrastructural projects, but since the 1990s, Japanese aid actors have also emphasized "soft" aid. One example of soft aid is hitozukuri ("making persons"): human resource development activities such as training programs. Based on 20 months of fieldwork tracing a Japanese NGO's activities "making persons" across Japan and Burma/Myanmar, I examine the cultural politics of aspiring to create relational proximity among aid actors that undergirds hitozukuri aid. Specifically, I study the Organizational for Industrial, Spiritual and Cultural Advancement (OISCA), one of the oldest nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) in Japan that derives from a Shintobased new religion called Ananaikyō. OISCA has been conducting training programs in sustainable agriculture for Asian rural youth in Japan and around the Asia-Pacific since the 1960s. These programs aim to construct intercultural and interpersonal proximity among aid workers and trainees who live together for a year "like family" in training centers. As one of the most prominent NGOs in Japan that has received significant support from politicians and government officials, I suggest that the aspirations for proximity in OISCA are emblematic of general understandings of hitozukuri aid. While recent studies of humanitarianism have shed light on the paradox between humanitarian ideals and practices, the dilemmas that emerge in the intercultural iv encounters that are at the core of international aid work have been largely overlooked. My dissertation elucidates how aspirations for proximity in cross-cultural relations produce a particular politics of ambivalence in hitozukuri aid. On the one hand, the dominant aspirations for proximity in OISCA generate positive forms of belonging and "being human." On the other hand, such aspirations also involve a violent erasure of differences, at the same time that "cultural differences" are upheld. As such, nationalculturalism and the aspiration for proximity are two sides of the same coin in hitozukuri aid. The dissertation ultimately argues that aid ideologies of humanity based on ideas of proximity should alert us to a politics of global culturalism that is both alluring and violent, producing a variety effects on different aid actors. v Advisors/Committee Members: Miyazaki, Hirokazu (chair), Welker, Marina Andrea (committee member), Riles, Annelise (committee member), Hodzic, Saida (committee member).

▼ Myanmar martial arts, specifically the let-whay style, or Myanmar traditional boxing, are practiced by multiple ethnic groups, as well as among the Burman majority, and they offer almost an entirely unstudied field of inquiry. With a history of the Myanmar government continuing the British categorical system of ethnic groups and contributing to ethnic minority separatism how do the martial arts play a part in community development, and subsequently, identity formation? Let-whay is popular among students, military personnel, and professional fighters in the city of Yangon. The question arises whether the presence of a let-whay center plays a positive, cohesive role in Yangon local society, or what its role is. My thesis is that martial arts centers promote a community environment among its students despite the presence of differing ethnic groups. I propose that through the "power of movement", practitioners and trainees feel a sense of "community", regardless of age, nationality, ethnicity or gender. I shape my interpretations through the lens of Arnold van Gennep's theory of "liminality". In my thesis, I attempt to build a new interpretation of "liminal" experiences. Perhaps these "liminal" experiences are not disappearing in an era of increasing industrial nations and instead are alive and functioning in Myanmar in the context of the martial arts in a country caught in its own ongoing political, social, and economic transitions. First I describe a shared martial arts historical narrative as a liminal "commonality" for the participants. Secondly, I determine that let-whay practitioners from Yangon local society, a modern city, and foreigners from industrial nations embody a sense of community by experiencing shared phases of liminality. Furthermore, I suggest that despite "liminoid" characteristics, practicing the martial arts in Yangon is not necessarily by "choice," the leading factor determining what is "play" versus "work." I argue that the practitioners experience "liminal rites of passage" therefore they embody lived martial arts. I conducted ethnographic fieldwork in Yangon, Myanmar using methods that included participant observation, formal interviews, informal conversations, and questionnaires in a fiveweek period over the winter break of the academic year 2013 - 14, and also by email during three week after my return to Cornell University. I observed three separate martial arts centers in and around Yangon City, Myanmar. However, most of the data collected for this paper comes from only two of these centers - the Thut Ti Let-Whay Myanmar Boxing Club (Thut Ti) and the Ko Kyaw Soe's Let-whay gym. I conclude that a sense of community exists at the Thut Ti center despite the presence of novice, amateur, and professional fighters, of various ethnic and national groups and religion, of both genders. Since foreign fighters can embody similar liminal experiences that national fighters endure, they too participate as a member of the Myanmar boxing club. ii Advisors/Committee Members: Fiskesjo, N Magnus G (chair), McGowan, Kaja Maria (committee member).

▼ This thesis explores how Buddhist Plong Karen people in Hpa-an, the capital of Karen State, Myanmar pursue morality in what is a time of momentous social, political and cultural change. As one of the rare ethnographic studies to be conducted among Plong Karen people in Myanmar in recent decades, my research problematises existing literature and assumptions about ‘the Karen’. Informed by eighteen months of participant observation in Hpa-an, I examine the multiple ways that Plong Karen Buddhists broker, cultivate, enact, traverse and bound morality. Through an analysis of local social relations and the merit-power nexus, I show that brokering morality is enmeshed in both the complexities of the Buddhist “moral universe” (Walton 2016) and other Karen ethical frameworks that define and make personhood. I examine the Buddhist concept of thila (P. sīla), moral discipline, and how the everyday cultivation of moral “technologies of the self” (Foucault 1997), engenders a form of moral agency and power for elderly Plong Karen men and women of the Hpu Takit sect. Taking the formation of gendered subjectivities during the transitional youth period as a process of “moral becoming” (Mattingly 2014), I demonstrate the ways young women employ moral agency as they test and experiment with multiple modes of everyday ethics and selfhood. The experiential tensions between the traditional habitus of morality as filial obligation and utopian aspirations for the future are then examined through the prism of youth education programmes which encourage learning as a means of individual self-actualisation. Finally, I consider how the moral ideals of Buddhist Plong Karen have contingently converged in recent years with Buddhist chauvinist ideology which excludes non-Buddhists and especially Muslims from popular notions of belonging. The thesis contributes to literature on how minority people in Myanmar see themselves beyond the ethno-nationalist narratives and movements that have defined them for decades (Sadan 2013; Thawnghmung 2012). It also advances the anthropological study of morality by arguing that ethics are best understood not according to any neutral external measure or set of binary ethical positions, but as a set of frequently contradictory and ambiguous ideals which individuals seek to cultivate and enact in the course of everyday life. Rather than searching for morality in moments of ‘moral breakdown’ or conflict, I argue that moral agency is a highly interactive process that is differentiated across people’s lifetime according to one’s circumstances, age and gender. Critiquing the notion that moral coherence is necessary for ethical selfhood, the thesis shows that contradiction and ambivalence is inherent to the pursuit of morality among Plong Karen people. While moral ideals may encapsulate…

▼ Through a critical use of migration theology this thesis determines pastoral outcomes for a former refugee community in Porirua, New Zealand. Resettlement after forced migration is challenging on many levels; migration theology seeks to make a practical and enduring response to these challenges. In particular migration theology has considerable potential to impact migration theory and to contribute meaningfully toward the needs of migrants and their home and host communities. The moral impetus that migration theology engenders, with its notion of the value of all human beings and its commitment to solidarity with the poor, is a powerful tool for change in churches, migrant communities and toward social justice. Migration theology is an integrated discipline: integrating thought and practice; integrating the insights of other disciplines; and integrating theological and Scriptural themes to develop a practical theology of compassionate action with a preferential option for the poor. Highlighting the important place of religion and the way in which many migrants practise their faith in their migration experience is a particular feature of migration theology. The theology of migration promotes interdependence between host and migrant communities: migration theology looks to migrants for the valuable contribution they are able to make to society in general, to the church and religious practices and to what the migration experience can teach us about the bible, helping to shape a theology of migration that strengthens the growth of true humanity for all people. This thesis is presented in three chapters. Chapter one gives a survey and critique of migration theology in general and of the migration theology of Daniel G. Groody in particular. Chapters two and three follow a process of theological enquiry put forward by Jorge E. Castillo Guerra. Chapter two examines two aspects of context: first, the subjective context of the Kachin Christian Church in Porirua; second, the general context (that is, that which relates broadly to the Kachin people of Northern Burma) is considered, giving thought to the geopolitical situation in Burma and to factors relating to the forced migration of Kachin people. Chapter three is broken into two sections: first, biblical themes and theological ideas are outlined that may contribute to the Kachin Church; and second, an examination of the pastoral outcomes that emerge through this theological enquiry. This thesis concludes that migration theology has an important role to play in migrant communities. Pastoral outcomes must not be limited to the care and nurture of these communities, but must foster a ‘double belonging’ that encourages migrants to have a leadership influence in both home and host society. These outcomes can serve migrant communities at their points of need offering pastoral solutions and fostering integrative practices that contribute to justice and the humanisation of the host society; as these outcomes submit to the biblical text they equip Christian… Advisors/Committee Members: Bradstock, Andrew (advisor).

▼ The territorial sovereign state is the primary unit of International Relations. In this thesis, it is argued that its perceived dominance in the real world out there has also come to dominate the political as well as the academic field as the only imaginable spatial extension of political authority. The mainstream of IR can only analyse questions of how the territorial state functions in the international system, not how the state comes to dominate social life as a territorial form of political authority. The purpose of this thesis is to reimagine the state and territoriality in International Relations. To this end, inspired by political geography and sociology, alternate conceptualisations of space and the state are suggested. They can be used to form a basis for analysis of sociospatial phenomena that takes into account the social as well as the spatial, and starts with human agency, not structure. In chapter four I then build on these conceptualisation to suggest ways to analyse state power as ascending from local social relations, and the territorialisation strategies and effects that make political authority territorial. Viewed as an effect, the territorial state is but one possible form of sociospatial organisation of political authority, although it does currently have the strongest international acceptance for its source of sovereignty. Nevertheless, competing political authorities can employ supporting, parallel, or competing systems of rule with the state that can be territorial, but also, for example, network-, kinship- or mobility-based. The making of political authorities and their spatialities is demonstrated with cases from the Sino-Burmese borderlands. The cases build on fieldworks conducted by ethnographers, anthropologists, and political geographers. The focus of the analysis is on the territorialisation of political authority, especially of the Burmese state, in spaces with competing spatial claims for authority. The cases demonstrate that international borders tell little about the realities on the field; state territory and power are constantly renegotiated and redefined by actors varying from armed groups, state military, central and local government officials, drug lords, businessmen and ordinary farmers. – Aluevaltio on kansainvälisen politiikan perusyksikkö. Tämän tutkimuksen mukaan valtion dominoiva asema käytännön kansainvälisessä politiikassa on johtanut siihen, että myös akateemisessa tutkimuksessa siitä on tullut poliittisen auktoriteetin ainoa kuviteltavissa oleva tilallinen muoto. Kansainvälisen politiikan valtavirta pystyy vastaamaan vain kysymyksiin siitä, miten aluevaltiot toimivat kansainvälisissä suhteissa, mutta ei siihen, miten valtio muodostuu sosiaalisissa suhteissa niiden toimintaa määrääväksi alueelliseksi poliittisen auktoriteetin muodoksi. Tämän tutkimuksen tavoitteena on kuvitella valtio ja alueellisuus uudelleen kansainvälisen politiikan tieteenalalla. Tätä tavoitetta varten tutkimuksessa ehdotetaan poliittisen maantieteen ja sosiologian käsitteisiin…

A 2Dnumericalmodel is set-up for the tidal bore in the Sittaung River. This model is used to analyse the effect of the bottom friction, bathymetry, tidal range and river discharge on the propagation of the tidal bore. To obtain information about the tidal bore the Sittaung River is visited two times. During the second visit, depth measurements were carried out. It became clear that the tidal bore occurs only a few days after full and new moon at the village Kyaik Ka Thar. The tidal bore is also observed near Kyaik Ka Thar as an undular bore with a height of ± 0.3 m. Downstream in the estuary the tidal bore is larger and occurs 5 till 7 days after full and new moon. A numerical model is set-up for the region from Madauk till the Gulf of Marteban. The bathymetry is based on various datasets. Only a few cross-sectional profiles were available for the upper part of the model. The SRTMmap was used to determine the bottom slope of the river, whereas the cross-sections were used to determine the cross-sectional profile. From the depth measurements the initial depth for the bottom slope was obtained. The Navioncs webapp is used for the lower part of the domain (Gulf of Martaban). Both parts of the bathymetry were connected by using linear interpolation. From the Landat pictures the locations of the intertidal areas were obtained. As an upstream boundary a river discharge is set. A tidal signal is used as the downstream boundary. This downstream signal consists of two components: a daily double high water signal (D2) and a daily quarter high water signal (D4). The calibration is based on the propagation of the tidal bore. When the water level changes are larger than 0.2 m within 2.5 minute it is assumed that the tidal bore has propagate through a grid cell. On this way, the model results could be calibrated with data obtained from the field. For verification the relation between the cross-sectional area and the tidal prism was checked. For the sensitivity analyse the bottom friction, tidal range, bathymetry and river discharge were varied in various simulations. From these results can be concluded that the river discharge has no influence on the tidal bore, whereas the other parameters has a significant effect on the tidal bore. This implies that damming the Sittaung River, resulting in a change of the discharge, will not affect the tidal bore. Thus, changes of the propagation are only caused by the geometry and bathymetry of the estuary. Secondly the variety of the tidal bore is only caused by the tidal range, because this is the only parameter which change throughout the year. At least the effect of the tidal bore on the erosion is checked, but it is very difficult to relate the tidal bore to the erosion due to the lack of data. Upstream in the estuary the tidal bore is a small undular bore, which will not cause must erosion. Downstream of the estuary the tidal bore is larger and could have much more effect on the erosion.

▼ Democracy inspires many social movements around the world. Yet there is no consensus about its meaning. This thesis examines the Burmese democracy movement in the years leading up to the 2015 election victory of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy. I argue that attention to the ways democracy was given meaning amongst activists, opposition leaders and aid workers in Myanmar reveals important conceptual contests. These were struggles not between military elites and the Burmese democracy movement but within the democracy movement, and with its Western supporters – what I have described as ‘other’ struggles for democracy. The concept of narrative can unlock new perspectives on the way democracy is given meaning by political actors, and especially in the construction of meaning through conceptual contest. Drawing on fifty formal interviews and three months of observation in Myanmar (in 2013 and 2014) - within activist networks, aid agencies and the National League for Democracy - this study revealed three contrasting narratives. An institutional narrative, prominent amongst Western aid workers, emphasised the problem of personalised politics and the need for capacity building to develop formal democratic institutions. A benevolence narrative, common amongst activist leaders, highlighted the problem of dictatorial leadership and the need for unity, discipline and selfless leadership in the country’s democratization. Finally, an equality narrative, prominent in other activist networks, stressed the problem of hierarchy in Burmese culture and a vision of democracy as relational equality. As simplified stories containing diverse visions, challenges and strategies, these narratives were important means through which democracy was understood and communicated. Yet activists and aid workers also used narratives of democracy to position themselves in relation to rivals - to establish themselves, and their allies, as experts who could define what ‘genuine’ democracy was, and was not. Conceptual contests in the democracy movement were not only over contrasting visions, challenges and strategies; they were also over the construction of ‘characters’. In other words, narratives were not neutral but a way in which activists, opposition leaders and aid workers could exercise power in a discursive form. Finally, while narratives were in some ways a means for the exercise of power, these struggles were not always overt in the democracy movement, and in fact the nature of narratives and their associated practices often served to obscure conceptual contests. Myanmar has freed itself from military rule. Yet as democracy is increasingly held up as a valued political concept, it is crucial to unpack the many ways in which it is given meaning. This study extends the democratization literature by explicitly addressing the plurality of meanings of democracy. It also furthers the agenda of interpretive studies of democracy, and studies on the transmission of global norms, by highlighting the role of context specific…

▼ The present study is one of the first academic efforts to systematically study the causes of the massive human rights violations that Rohingyas have suffered in Myanmar over the past half a century. While most of the existing literature treat the “Rohingya problem” mainly as a case of forced migration or de jure statelessness, I trace it back to colonial times and the immediate post- independence period, demonstrating that it is a sedimented problem involving different players at different critical junctures.The study is informed by broad social theories of rationalism, structuralism and culturalism. It reviews the literature on political repression (the most advanced sub-field of political science on human rights violations), and finds that it has two serious gaps: its sole focus upon violations of dissidents’ physical integrity rights, and an overly narrow conception of ‘threat’, which is defined in political power terms alone. I extend the possible repertoire of human rights violations to include also other categories of rights. I then draw from theories of identity, demographic insecurity and threat perception and construction, and conclude that threats may be defined also in cultural/ethnic/religious terms.I argue that the violations of the Rohingyas’ human rights over the past half a century are rooted in rationalist political calculations and demographic insecurities of the Myanmar – and more recently also Rakhine – authorities; structural imbalances between Rakhines and Rohingyas, as well as between central Bamar-dominated governments and Rakhine State; the conflicting cultural identities of Rohingya Muslims and the Buddhist majority in Myanmar; and discriminatory and persecutory citizenship documentation policies and practices specifically targeting Rohingyas. Prior to 2012, the “causers” were mainly the central government and its agents based in Rakhine State. More recently, however, Rakhines, both leaders and local communities, as well as nationalist Buddhist monks and other anti-Rohingya or anti-Muslim Buddhists, have also come to play a prominent role, expressing vehement opposition to any form of recognition, respect, protection or fulfillment by the government of the Rohingyas’ human rights.

▼ This thesis examines the effect of the shift in political structure and values on Myanmar’s foreign policy. It analyses political-institutional settings to determine a political regime. Another domestic factor of state weakness is analysed in conjunction with political regimes. Foreign policy means of influential external actors as external factors are also examined in relation to state weakness and political regimes. The foreign policy approaches of influential external actors link state weakness and identity politics with foreign policy means to influence a political regime in internal-external interaction. The thesis argues that there is a nonlinear nexus between a political regime and foreign policy which can be explained through state weakness and foreign policy approaches of influential external actors. The thesis finds that relative shifts occurred between the political regime and state weakness which drove and constrained foreign policy. Regardless of political regime, the political will of the central decision-maker(s) for establishing social order was externalized in foreign relations and thus drove the foreign policy. The balancing between individual rights and security and collective rights and community security and between community formation and the law-making and the institution building informed the political-institutional settings and constrained the actions of political regimes. The autonomy of the central decision-maker of the authoritarian regime was mostly susceptible to measures of influential external actors for influence or leverage, the autonomy of the central decision-makers of the transformational regime was actually constrained by the formal and informal check-and-balance. While the authoritarian regime tackled state weakness, the transformational regime addressed both state weakness and political regime for a better delivery of public goods. The foreign policy approaches of political regimes reflected domestic drivers and constraints and various measures of influential external actors for influence or leverage. Although the foreign policy approach changed from balancing to friendly relations with all countries, Myanmar’s larger foreign policy role was constrained in balancing community formation with the law-making and the institution building. While peacefulness was irrespective of regime type, the conduciveness to community formation, security space and national law-making determined the cooperativeness of political regimes.

▼ From 2010, the historically isolated state of Myanmar began a transition to democracy, a transition which would bring the first elections in nearly two decades. The regime diluted political power between the military and new civilian institutions, allowing for significant democratisation, market liberalisation and de-censoring of communications and media in the years which followed. Simultaneously, the military implemented the most intense period of atrocities in the northwestern periphery of Rakhine State, against the Rohingya Muslim minority. To date, no research has sufficiently explained why the opening up of the state of Myanmar to the international community coincided with atrocities, the severity of which may well amount to genocide. Scholarship generally attributes Myanmar’s crimes to ‘ethnic-cleavages’, a narrative which has been debunked in scholarship on other atrocity cases; or over-zealous counter-insurgency, despite no significant Rohingya insurgent group being in existence at the time these atrocities began. Rather than atrocities being coincidental to the democratisation process, this paper argues transition in fact sparked atrocities in Myanmar’s northwestern periphery, by destabilising an internal balance of power between elite rival factions. Based upon extant research into political violence, it poses a novel explanation for the timing of Myanmar’s atrocities against Rohingya Muslims. It argues that the resignation of elites in the military junta in order to compete in the 2010 elections resulted in heightened elite rivalry between the generals which took their place. Changes to the strategic environment of Myanmar’s new military leadership led to a calculation by which atrocities in Rakhine State were perceived as useful for new Commander-in-Chief Min Aung Hlaing. Having faced insecurity upon taking office in 2011, Senior General Hlaing had insurmountable control by 2018, suggesting atrocities in the northwest periphery had proven successful from the perspective of the new leadership. A new mechanism for the regression of democratisation to mass atrocities is posed, combining research into political violence with the chronology and context of Myanmar’s transition.

▼ The Ayeyarwady River (also called Irrawaddy River) is the most important river of Myanmar and due to the country’s rapid development it is expected to become even more important. The river flows roughly from north to south through Myanmar and is very dynamic and mostly unregulated. With a length of 2170 km and an over the year average (highly seasonally varying) discharge of 13’000 m3/s into the Andaman Sea (Bhardwaj, Owen, & Leinbach, 2012), the Ayeyarwady is one of the bigger rivers in Asia. To more than before take into account the interests of different stakeholders, as well as ecological aspects, sustainable management of the river is needed. Understanding the key aspects of the river flow can be a first step to sustainable river management (Richter et al., 2003). Pollution due to a large variety of activities of different nature make that water quality monitoring is of high importance (Thanda Thatoe Nwe Win, Bogaard, & Van de Giesen, 2015). For monitoring and modelling the water quality, information about the mixing of tracers trough the river is needed, which can be quantified with the use of dispersion coefficients. Little research has been done about the Ayeyarwady River in general considered its size and importance. Very limited data about the mixing of tracers and the parameters needed to estimate the mixing of tracers was available. This research focuses on the situation around the Ayeyarwady-Chindwin confluence in the first week of February 2017 (dry season). Hence, there is a very different situation during for example wet season. For the water quality, mainly the mixing in the longitudinal direction (direction of the main river flow) is of interest, which can be quantified by a longitudinal dispersion coefficient (Kx). First relevant parameters for estimating Kx were identified based on the theory. This appeared to be the discharge, roughness and bathymetry. Besides, Kx has to be calibrated by floater experiments. To get better insight into the magnitude of these parameters, flow velocity and depth measurements (needed for estimating the discharge, roughness and bathymetry) and floater experiments have been done during a week of fieldwork in the area. Due to loss, theft and destruction of floaters, less data was collected than planed. To get further insight in the mixing of tracers, a numerical model was made in the software Delft3D based on data collected during the fieldwork. Based on the combined results of the theory, measurements done during the fieldwork and the Delft3D model, it is expected that the magnitude of Kx in the Ayeyarwady River is somewhere in between 50-500 m2/s (best estimate: Kx~300 m2/s), although this has to be confirmed by further research. When the found value is compared with values found for other bigger rivers this value for Kx appears to be somewhat on the low side. From the Delft3D model runs follows that the longitudinal dispersion coefficient in the Chindwin River is higher than in the Ayeyarwady, possibly even a factor 10. Besides, insight in the effect of the… Advisors/Committee Members: Rutten, Martine (mentor), Sloff, Kees (mentor), Delft University of Technology (degree granting institution).
