We are delighted to announce the publication of the monograph "Heritage and the Making of Political Legitimacy in Laos: The Past and Present of the Lao Nation” by Phill Wilcox. This book takes a fresh look at issues of legitimacy, heritage, and national identity for different members of the Lao population. It argues that the political system has become sufficiently embedded to avoid imminent risk of collapse but suggests that it is facing new challenges primarily in the form of rising Chinese influence in Laos.
