Title<\/strong>:
\nFrom Burma With Love: Socialist Realism Chic in the1960s Burmese Cinema<\/p>\n

Abstract<\/strong>:
\nAt the time of General Ne Win\u2019s 1962 military coup, Burmese cinema production was at its apex. Despite the nationalisation of cinema halls and stepped up censor board with its \u201cBurmese Way to Socialism\u201d ideology, local motion picture companies continued to distribute their products throughout the country. In popular and even scholarly representations, Burmese society during these military years is often typecast as isolated, frozen in time, even a \u201chermit state.\u201d Using Burmese popular culture, specifically international styles, film remakes, and popular music, this presentation will consider how the Burmese culture industries selectively engaged cosmopolitan styles with cultural authenticity in crafting a Burmese cinematic language.<\/p>\n

Speaker<\/strong>:
\nJane Ferguson is Senior Lecturer in Anthropology and Southeast Asian History at The Australian National University. Her research afflictions include ethnic conflict, unpopular culture and passenger aviation.
