Why have so few retired #Tatmadaw officers embraced electoral politics in #Myanmar in the 2010s? And why those who chose to run for office performed so poorly?

Forthcoming article in @APSRjournal by Carmen Ho @carmenjho_ examines why government ignore serious welfare issues and what prompts them to finally act. Based on careful fieldwork in Indonesia, it finds that bureaucrats play a pivotal role.

[Carmen Jacqueline Ho @carmenjho_]

Why do governments ignore serious welfare issues? And what prompts them to finally act? My article with @apsrjournal shows how governments have weak incentives to expand policies serving folks with limited power on low visibility issues – but bureaucrats can help change this 1/👇
