The new government almost immediately began negotiating a series of peace agreements with ethnic armed groups declaring that the signature of a nationwide ceasefire with all ethnic armed groups would be a priority for this first civilian administration. By convincing the majority of groups involved in armed struggle against the Tatmadaw to sign ceasefire agreements, the predominantly civilian government succeeded in winning some credibility, both nationally and internationally. At the same time, several old fault lines have re-emerged, among them the conflict in Kachin and Northern Shan States. The roots of the conflict in Kachin State between the KIO and government troops go back to grievances over control of the territory (and its lucrative natural resources) and the preservation of ethnic identity after the end of British colonial rule in 1948. The rekindling of this old conflict, after seventeen years of ceasefire, serves as a powerful reminder of the fragility of certain aspects of the transition process. The setback to conflict and blockage of peace process with the Kachin Independence Organisation (KIO) and its Army (KIA) show that some structural political issues remain, such as the recognition of local power structures and decentralization. While much has been written in the media about the legal, economic, and political reforms in Myanmar; academic research about the Kachin Conflict, as well as firsthand information remains scarce. Analyzing the causes of the conflict and current impediments to peace in Kachin territories provides an illustration of the limits of the transition process. This research examines the personal experiences of a strong sample of influential Kachin people, shows the complexity of notions of war and peace in the collective Kachin memory, as well as the reinterpretation of these by local leadership for political ends lok: 46477647 3 exp: 46477647 3 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.373 201C/01 $001-06-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01109671059 208@/01 $a01-06-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH lok: 46477647 5 exp: 46477647 5 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.381 201C/01 $001-06-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01109671067 208@/01 $a01-06-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH lok: 46477647 8 exp: 46477647 8 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.388 201C/01 $001-06-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01109671075 208@/01 $a01-06-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH lok: 46477647 10 exp: 46477647 10 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.394 201C/01 $001-06-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01109671083 208@/01 $a01-06-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH lok: 46477647 11 exp: 46477647 11 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.400 201C/01 $001-06-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01109671091 208@/01 $a01-06-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH lok: 46477647 20 exp: 46477647 20 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.406 201C/01 $001-06-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01109671105 208@/01 $a01-06-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH lok: 46477647 21 exp: 46477647 21 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.413 201C/01 $001-06-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01109671113 208@/01 $a01-06-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH lok: 46477647 23 exp: 46477647 23 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.421 201C/01 $001-06-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01109671121 208@/01 $a01-06-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH lok: 46477647 24 exp: 46477647 24 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.427 201C/01 $001-06-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $0110967113X 208@/01 $a01-06-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH lok: 46477647 25 exp: 46477647 25 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.433 201C/01 $001-06-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01109671148 208@/01 $a01-06-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH lok: 46477647 36 exp: 46477647 36 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.484 201C/01 $012-01-22 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01176582550 208@/01 $a12-01-22 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH lok: 46477647 49 exp: 46477647 49 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.439 201C/01 $001-06-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01109671156 208@/01 $a01-06-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH lok: 46477647 54 exp: 46477647 54 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.451 201C/01 $001-06-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01109671172 208@/01 $a01-06-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH lok: 46477647 108 exp: 46477647 108 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.464 201C/01 $001-06-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01109671199 208@/01 $a01-06-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH lok: 46477647 204 exp: 46477647 204 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.470 201C/01 $001-06-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01109671202 208@/01 $a01-06-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH lok: 46477647 205 exp: 46477647 205 1 #EPN 201B/01 $012-01-22 $t22:53:14.476 201C/01 $001-06-20 201U/01 $0utf8 203@/01 $01109671210 208@/01 $a01-06-20 $bl 209S/01 $S0 $uhttps://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/51030 $XH
