Genealogy of a Rebellion Narrative: Law, Ethnology and Culture in Colonial Burma
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 11 November 2003
Abstract
This article re-examines the history and historiography of the Saya San Rebellion (1930–32), Burma's most famous peasant uprising and one of Southeast Asia's most frequently examined anti-colonial movements. By retracing the documents most intimately connected to the rebellion's official narrative, this study reconstructs the legal and administrative context within which this particular history was made.
