This paper examines the political legacy of colonialism in Myanmar and scrutinize its aspects especially on die resolution of colonialism with both of inner and outer perspectives having been represented. For the analysis of Myanmar-inner perspective in particular, the contents of Myanmar History textbooks currently used at middle and high schools in Myanmar are studied as reflecting the viewpoint of the military regime. In this paper, it is emphasized that the political and economical legacies derived from the British and Japanese colonial rules gave the modem Myanmar deep impacts on the formation of Myanmar, but they have not been resolved clearly because of the military intervention since 1962, which might be regarded as a kind of the legacy. In conclusion, we suggest that their political resolution seem to be quite a lot erased or not to be remained in memory of Myanmar people after the long term of military rule.
