Shows that just eking out a living from day to day in Myanmar (formerly Burma) leaves little time for civic engagement. Thawnghmung concludes that the resourceful strategies citizens use in the short term for coping with hardship may hinder the emergence of democratic values needed to sustain the country's transition to a more open political environment.
