Outside Myanmar, the 2021 coup d'état has often been portrayed as the end of a hopeful period for the country. In this Adelphi book, Aaron Connelly and Shona Loong argue that the Aung San Suu Kyi government that preceded it was a false dawn, unlikely to fulfil the international community's aspirations for a stable Myanmar.
