ROKING CRISIS AS A MARKER OF THE CONSOLIDATION OF THE NATIONAL ELITE OF BIRM / MIYANMA IN THE SECOND DECADE OF THE XXI CENTURIES
Keywords:
Aung San Suu Kyi, modernists, conservatives, consensus, Rohinja, Islamic extermism, Buddhist radicalism.Abstract
The result of the consistent 27-year struggle of Aung San Suu Kyi, the daughter of the «father» of independent Burma, General Aung San, for the consolidation of the political positions of the Myanmar modernists, was the convincing victory of the National League for Democracy that she led in the next parliamentary elections on November 8, 2015. These political changes were in fact recognized as the command of the Myanmar army. At the same time, the achieved political consensus within the national elite of the country was very soon subjected to a serious test by external and internal extremist forces. On August 25, 2017, the rebels of the Rokhinj Arakan Salvation Army (ARSA) attacked 30 police and military facilities in Rakhine State. The result of this action was the mass flight to Bangladesh of Muslim Bengalis (Rohinja), who lived in the north-west of Myanmar. However, the intensification of radical sentiments in the society against the background of the Rohingja crisis, as the study shows, only contributes to strengthening political consensus in Myanmar’s elites in various spheres of foreign and domestic policy, including in the sensitive sphere of interethnic relations.
