Product Description
About the Author
About the author: Professor Abid Bahar, Ph.D. (Concordia University, Montreal, Canada,) presently teaches at Dawson College (Montreal). He has contributed numerous papers to international seminars and conferences and published numerous papers on Burma. He has attended several international conferences, most recently in Japan on Problems of Democratic Development in Burma. As a specialist in Ethnic Relations in Burma, he was recently invited to speak at the United Nation's expert consultation on citizenship and minorities held in Geneva, Switzerland. Dr. Bahar continues to write on ethnicity and race relations in Burma, Bangladesh and India. In 1982, he completed his thesis entitled: The Dynamics of Ethnic Relations in Burmese Society: A Case Study of Ethnic Relations between the Burmese and the Rohingyas. ---- The contemporary history of Western Burma was written by xenophobic and tendentious writers. Dr. Bahar makes a genuine contribution by filling the missing dots with knowledge, which qualifies this priceless effort a handbook for Burma readers. Aung San USA Professor Abid Bahar is not a Rohingya, but he has worked meticulously to unearth the history of Arakan and relate his research to contemporary developments in Burmese society. His example as a researcher is one I personally aspire to follow and I am sure many students of Arakan and modern Burma feel similarly. Enayet Ullah, BRAG, Thailand
