Abstract

To study Southeast Asia during the last two decades cannot but make one acutely aware of the prevalence of conflict within and between states, violent and non-violent. Some have their roots in historical events long passed, others in processes of colonisation and decolon-isation, and still others in modern ideological differences. The difficulties involved in solving these conflicts are notorious, some-thing to which the whole story of the Vietnam conflict and its aftermath bears ample witness.
