An Analysis of the Role of Civil Society in Building Peace in Ethno-religious Conflict: A Case Study of the Three Southernmost Provinces of Thailand A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science and Public Policy at The University of Waikato by KAYANEE CHOR BOONPUNTH 2015 ii Abstract The ‘Southern Fire’ is an ethno-religious conflict in the southernmost region of Thailand that has claimed thousands of innocent lives since an upsurge in violence in 2004. Although it does not catch the world’s attention as much as other conflict cases in the same region, daily violent incidents are ongoing for more than a decade. The violence in the south has multiple causes including historical concerns, economic marginalisation, political and social issues, religious and cultural differences, educational opportunity inequities, and judicial discrimination.

  • The Chronicle 2015-2016
    St Hugh’s College Oxford A record of news, events and achievements within the St Hugh’s College community for the academic year 2015-16 CHRONICLE October 2015 - September 2016 ST HUGH’S COLLEGE CHRONICLE 2015-16 Editorial Helen Popescu (English, 2006), Publications Officer The writing of this Editorial could not come at a more appropriate time for me. In the ten years since I matriculated, I have been fortunate to remain involved with College throughout. Now, as I prepare to leave my role as Publications Officer, it is a great pleasure to reflect on how the College has evolved and grown in this time. I hope that this Chronicle evinces some of the great strengths of the past academic year, and gives reason to trust that these can be matched and surpassed in the year to come. Many of the reports in the Chronicle, and particularly those of the JCR and MCR, celebrate the diversity of human experience generated by bringing together gifted students from an enormous variety of backgrounds. This has always been, and must remain, the core of College’s purpose, especially when the uncertainty following the decision for the UK to leave the European Union has been so pervasive. This year’s ‘Articles by Alumni’ focus on unusual paths taken after leaving College. If I could share any advice with my first year undergraduate self, it would be that choosing an uncommon career trajectory, although daunting, is also incredibly gratifying. It was such a delight this year to receive many reports of our alumni’s achievements in a variety of different fields – thank you to all those of you who shared your news.

Gandhi’s advocating of non-violent approaches to conflict are valued and promoted. On 15 June 2007, the United Nations General Assembly voted to establish Gandhi’s date of birth, 2 October, as the International Day of Non-Violence. The Gandhi Foundation was set up at a meeting in October 1983, following Richard Attenborough’s film “Gandhi” and the renewed interest that it aroused. The Foundation has no full-time staff, but is administered by the Executive Committee (assisted by a Secretary), whose members take forward the purpose of the Foundation through its ongoing projects. All Gandhi Foundation Friends are encouraged to become involved in areas that are of particular interest to them.
