This project aims to understand how and why constitutions change in authoritarian regimes. After decades of authoritarian rule, there is lively public debate about formal amendment of the Myanmar constitution. Based on rigorous qualitative methods including archival research and in-depth interviews, this project expects to investigate why Myanmar's Constitution is both a constraint and an enabler of democratic reform. This timely socio-legal project seeks to inform Australia’s political, economic and cultural engagement with Myanmar as a strategic neighbour in south-east Asia and a new market for foreign investment.

这个项目旨在了解如何以及为什么宪法在专制政权的变化。经过几十年的独裁统治，缅甸公众对正式修改宪法进行了激烈的辩论。该项目基于严格的定性方法，包括档案研究和深入访谈，希望调查为什么缅甸宪法既是民主改革的制约因素，又是民主改革的推动因素。这一及时的社会法律项目旨在为澳大利亚与缅甸的政治、经济和文化接触提供信息，缅甸是东南亚的战略邻国，也是外国投资的新市场。
