Sri Lanka has been regarded as a model democracy among former British colonies. It was lauded for its impressive achievement in terms of human development indicators. However, Sri Lanka's modern history can also be read as a tragic story of inter-ethnic inequalities and tensions, resulting in years of violent conflicts. Two long spells of anti-state youth uprisings were followed by nearly three decades of civil war, and most recently a renewed upsurge of events are examples of the on-going uneasy project of state-building. This book discusses that state-building in Sri Lanka is centred on the struggle for hegemony amidst a kind of politics that rejects individual and group equality, opposes the social integration of marginalised groups and appeals to narrow, fearful and xenophobic tendencies among the majority population and minorities alike. It answers the pressing questions of - How do the dynamics of intra-Sinhalese class relations and Sinhalese politics influence the trajectories of post-colonial state-building? What tensions emerge over time, between Sinhalese hegemony-building and wider state-building? How did these tensions manifest in majority and minority relationships?

This book offers a set of both country case studies and analysis of the European Union. The contributors, an authoritative group of Americans and Europeans, explore the new Europe, West and East, using intertwining themes of domestic politics, European integration, and European security. Each chapter provides a foundation of basic political information and explanation, enhanced by distinctive and informed perspectives on current issues. Now in its third edition, it presents an up-to-date and thoughtful treatment on the war in Iraq, debates over NATO's evolving role, U.S.-European relations, enlargement issues, and the challenges of terrorism in a European context. All chapters have been thoroughly revised, and completely new chapters have been added on France, Great Britain, Russia, Central and Eastern Europe, EU law, and terrorism. With its strong international emphasis and focus on Europe before and after Iraq, this book leads readers toward a coherent view of intra-European conflicts, Europe and the United States, and Europe's international responsibilities.

" An Undercover Operation Involving Burmese Rebels And Indian Intelligence Agencies Set Amidst The Palm Trees And Beaches Of The Andaman Islands. " It All Went Horribly Wrong. Were The Burmese Betrayed By Indian Intelligence? If So, Why? " Haksar S Investigation Unfolds Like A Thriller Set Against The Background Of The Geo-Politics Of The Indian Ocean. Why Is Democratic India Silent About The Struggle For Liberty In Burma? When Nandita Haksar Took Up The Case Of Thirty-Six Burmese Prisoners In Port Blair S Jail, She Thought It Was A Simple Case Of Illegal Detention. But As She Painstakingly Pieced Her Clients Stories Together, The Case Took On A Markedly More Complex Colour. The Burmese Claimed They Had Been Double-Crossed By An Indian Military Intelligence Agent During An Undercover Operation In The Andaman Islands. The Operation Had The Support Of India S Intelligence Agencies; In Return The Burmese Were To Receive Assistance In Their Struggle Against Myanmar S Military Junta. Yet It All Went Horribly Wrong: During The Operation Some Burmese Freedom Fighters Were Shot Dead And Subsequently The Thirty Six Survivors Were Held Without Charges. The Agent Disappeared. Haksar S Investigation Unfolds Like A Thriller Set Against The Background Of The Geo-Politics Of The Indian Ocean. The Rivalries Between India And China, The Growing Importance Of Myanmar S Gas Reserves And The Insurgencies In India S North-East Are All Critical Factors In The Chain Of Events. Rogue Agent Exposes Not Only The Injustice Meted To The Thirty-Six Burmese Prisoners And The Extraordinary Silence Of The State On The Circumstances Surrounding The Agent S Disappearance But It Also Argues That By Keeping Patriots From The Burmese Resistance In Jail In Order To Placate The Myanmar Military Junta, India Has Broken Its Own Laws And Has Violated The Spirit Of Its Own Constitution.

The Malayan Emergency (1948–60) was the longest war waged by British and Commonwealth forces in the twentieth century. Fought against communist guerrillas in the jungles of Malaya, this undeclared 'war without a name' had a powerful and covert influence on American strategy in Vietnam. Many military historians still consider the Emergency an exemplary, even inspiring, counterinsurgency conflict. Massacre in Malaya draws on recently released files from British archives, as well as eyewitness accounts from both the government forces and communist fighters, to challenge this view. It focuses on the notorious 'Batang Kali Massacre' – known as 'Britain's My Lai' – that took place in December, 1948, and reveals that British tactics in Malaya were more ruthless than many historians concede. Counterinsurgency in Malaya, as in Kenya during the same period, depended on massive resettlement programmes and ethnic cleansing, indiscriminate aerial bombing and ruthless exploitation of aboriginal peoples, the Orang Asli. The Emergency was a discriminatory war. In Malaya, the British built a brutal and pervasive security state – and bequeathed it to modern Malaysia. The 'Malayan Emergency' was a bitterly fought war that still haunts the present.
