Resumen

Este artículo reconstruye la historia de los procesos sociopolíticos de unificación de Yemen y Birmania para discernir algunas semejanzas y diferencias entre ambos países. La clave de comprensión del proceso es triple en ambos países: (a) primero, se analiza la fragmentación territorial previa a la unificación: mientras que en Yemen existe una fuerte diferenciación dual entre el Norte y el Sur, en Birmania la configuración sigue un modelo de “aureolas concéntricas” de difusión del poder central; (b) segundo, se explican las dificultades del proceso de unificación a partir de esta dispar realidad territorial: en Yemen este proceso es largo y complejo y se produce dos décadas después de la independencia colonial, mientras que en Birmania la unificación se produce de facto simultáneamente con la independencia; y (c) finalmente, se entresacan los elementos estructurales que no se resolvieron en la unificación y que siguen generando inestabilidad en los dos países con desigual importancia. Actualmente, Yemen se sitúa en un claro peligro de desintegración que sin embargo no parece darse en Birmania.
