  • Southeast Asia Research Centre (SEARC)
    Southeast Asia Research Centre (SEARC) Working Paper Series No. 197 COLONIAL BURMA AND POPULAR WESTERN CULTURE: AN EXPLORATORY SURVEY Andrew Selth Griffith University About the Author Andrew Selth is an Adjunct Professor at the Griffith Asia Institute, Griffith University. He has been studying international security issues and Asian affairs for 45 years, as a diplomat, strategic intelligence analyst and research scholar. Between 1973 and 1986 he was posted to the Australian missions in Rangoon, Seoul and Wellington. He later served in the Defence Intelligence Organisation and Office of National Assessments. He has been an Adjunct Associate Professor in the Coral Bell School of Asia Pacific Affairs at the Australian National University (ANU), a Visiting Fellow at the ANU’s Strategic and Defence Studies Centre, a Chevening Scholar at St Antony’s College, Oxford University, an Australian Research Council Fellow at Griffith University and a Harold White Fellow at the National Library of Australia. Dr Selth has published ten books and more than 50 peer-reviewed works, most of them about Myanmar (Burma). His latest book was Secrets and Power in Myanmar: Intelligence and the Fall of General Khin Nyunt (Singapore, 2019). COLONIAL BURMA AND POPULAR WESTERN CULTURE: AN EXPLORATORY SURVEY Abstract Over the centuries, images of Burma in the Western imagination have been remarkably consistent. At the broadest level, they have emphasised Burma’s remoteness, strangeness and harshness, or offered a much more idealised, romantic view of the country and its people. Within these two broad schools there have been a number of recurring motifs that have helped confirm the idea of Burma’s dualistic nature, and contributed to its mixed reputation.
