Show Notes

Last week's military coup in Myanmar has undone nearly a decade of progress toward democratic reform: Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi has been jailed, the public is protesting martial law across the country, and the military's strategy to contain the situation is escalating. Christina Fink and Debra Eisenman join Deep Dish to explain Myanmar's complicated politics and why the country's transition toward democracy didn't go as the West expected.
