Political Tribes by Amy Chua is an interesting insight into humanity's innate tribalism. People want to belong to groups and keep fulfilling bonds with others. Tribalism isn't best about inclusion in a group; it is also about exclusion to those outside of the group. group identification in one's tribe is not based at the country they live in, it is really "ethnic, regional, religious, sectarian, or clan based." the USA is as tribal as any other country regardless of its melting pot of ethnicities and cultures.
U.S. foreign policymakers over the decades were completely blinded by its ideology, emphasis of capitalism and democracy, and derision of com-monism. Instructions were no longer found out and the same mistakes were made repeatedly in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan. Our foreign interventions turned swaths of the populations we had been trying to help against us, empowering anti-American extremists in the system.
The popularity of Donald Trump the politician can be attributed to group identity as America's elites entirely discarded the tribal factor of American politics and the "powerful anti-establishment identity forming within the working class that helped choose Donald Trump." Chua calls the U.S. "a tribe of tribes" and a "super-group," membership of that is open to all of us of any background. but, those people can keep their subgroup identity (ethnicity, religion, culture). The United States is now witnessing the beginnings of ethno nationalism in lots of respects, propelled by a significant backlash against the status quo, followed by a reciprocal backlash from the ones elites towards the hundreds, and "the transformation of democracy into an engine of zero-sum political tribalism." Chua offers wish within the Epilogue, describing an America that has a chance to show this division around if we view each other as fellow people and fellow Americans who normally need the identical issue for ourselves and our United States of America.

The Politics of Love in Myanmar offers an intimate ethnographic account of a group of LGBT activists before, during, and after Myanmar's post-2011 political transition. Lynette J. Chua explores how these activists devoted themselves to, and fell in love with, the practice of human rights and how they were able to empower queer Burmese to accept themselves, gain social belonging, and reform discriminatory legislation and law enforcement. Informed by interviews with activists from all walks of life--city dwellers, villagers, political dissidents, children of military families, wage laborers, shopkeepers, beauticians, spirit mediums, lawyers, students--Chua details the vivid particulars of the LGBT activist experience founding a movement first among exiles and migrants and then into Myanmar's cities, towns, and countryside. A distinct political and emotional culture of activism took shape, fusing shared emotions and cultural bearings with legal and political ideas about human rights. For this network of activists, human rights moved hearts and minds and crafted a transformative web of friendship, fellowship, and affection among queer Burmese. Chua's investigation provides crucial insights into the intersection of emotions and interpersonal relationships with law, rights, and social movements.

In Liberalism Disavowed, Beng Huat Chua examines the rejection of Western-style liberalism in Singapore since the nation’s expulsion from Malaysia and formal independence as a republic in 1965. The People’s Action Party, which has ruled Singapore since 1959, has forged an independent non-Western ideology that is evident in various government policies that Chua analyzes, among them multiracialism, public housing, and widespread social distributions to the citizenry.
Singapore is prosperous and peaceful, it’s highly advanced on various metrics of economic development, it has a great deal of regional influence, it is home to sophisticated industries and a large financial service sector, and it features what are by Western standards unusually low levels of social inequality. Paradoxically, however, it is no beacon of political liberalism. Chua sets forth ample evidence that the dominance of the People’s Action Party is based on a combination of economic success and media control, limits on public protests, libel suits against political opponents, and severely curtailed civil liberties.
