  • Income Inequality Political Instability and the Thai Democratic Struggle
    The Paris School of Economics Masters in Analysis and Policy in Economics (APE) Income Inequality, Political Instability, and the Thai Democratic Struggle Master Thesis of: Thanasak Jenmana Thesis Supervisors: Referee: Facundo Alvaredo Thomas Piketty September 6, 2018 For every woman and man who has fought against or suered from reducible injustice in Thailand, and all over the world. Abstract This thesis re-examines the dynamics of income inequality in Thailand between 2001 and 2016. The main motivation lies in the lack of information on the richest citizens in household surveys, which can lead to a signicant underestimation of the inequality level and to a false representation of the historical trend. We combined household surveys, scal data, and national accounts to create a more consistent inequality series. Our results indicate that income inequality is much higher than what past surveys have suggested, specically when looking at the reduction in inequality, which turns to be much more conservative. The top 10% income share went from 52.62% of national income in 2001 to 51.49% in 2016, and the bottom 50% share increased from 11.30% to 13.90%. Within the same time frame, the Gini coecient decreased by only 0.04, reaching 0.60 in 2016. These observed dynamics can be put into perspective using recent political conicts in Thailand, where a strong anti-democratic sentiment has been arsing within the middle and upper social classes. The growth incidence curve shows that, the bottom half have been growing faster than the average since 2001, while the middle class has been growing at a rate below the national average.

  • In Search of Liberalism: Ideological Traditions, Translations, and Troubles in Thailand
    In search of liberalism: Ideological traditions, translations, and troubles in Thailand TOMAS LARSSON University of Cambridge Abstract The history of political thought in Southeast Asia has overwhelmingly focused on nationalism and socialism/Marxism. Little has been written about the fate of liberalism in the region. This is in stark contrast with the literature that in recent years has emerged on liberal political thought in South Asian and East Asian contexts. Seeking to make a Southeast Asian contribution to this literature, this article asks: Is there liberalism in Thailand? To answer the question, it surveys the existing literature on Thai political thought; outlines the history of the reproduction of the Western liberal canon in Thai translation; and takes stock of contemporary political debates. What does it find? First, that while one might find liberals in Thai history, there is no liberalism. Second, that serious intellectual engagement with liberal political thought occurs comparatively late and remains modest in Thailand, but that Thai politics nevertheless has been stalked by the spectre of Rousseau for more than eight decades. Third, and finally, that some Thai intellectual historians and other writers have responded to the country’s recent political troubles – in the form of increasing political polarization, intractable and often violent conflict, two military coups, and the ill health and subsequent death of King Bhumibol – by laying the intellectual groundwork for a liberal form of Thai nationalism. Keywords: Liberalism; ideology; political thought; intellectual history; Thailand In the late 1800s, the German sociologist Werner Sombart asked a classic question of comparative historical sociology that has continued to generate debate ever since: Why is there no socialism in the United States? Likewise, in the early stages of the Cold War, when almost all Southeast Asian countries saw the eruption of Communist insurgencies, scholars sought to explain the exception of Thailand (Thompson and Adloff 1950).

However, in the midst of the student and labor movements and increasing domestic trends toward socialism, it was the Phuu Ying Yai, “ Old important people", that resumed control of the government. There was, of course, generally a more liberal trend with a plurality victory for the old “ loyal opposition” (Democrat Party), and a surprising number of seats (15) for the new Socialist Party of Thailand. However, the military and industrialists re- emerged with significant influence in the new government as candidates associated with the old UTPP (United Thai People’s Party) which was previously led by the deposed Prime Minister Thanom Kittikachorn, won over 100 seats under the banner of new party names. The four major parties backed by former UTPP members include the Social Justice Party which won 45 seats, Chart Thai with 28 seats, and the Social Agrarian and Social Nationalist parties which won 19 and 16 seats respectively. These election results precipitated the inevitable — Thailand’s first co­ alition government, which differed from the elections in 1969 in several ways.

  • Less Revolution, More Realpolitik China's Foreign Policy in the Early
    WORKING PAPER 93 Less Revolution, More Realpolitik China's Foreign Policy in the Early and Middle 1970s By Zhou Yi, February 2020 THE COLD WAR INTERNATIONAL HISTORY PROJECT WORKING PAPER SERIES Christian F. Ostermann and Charles Kraus, Series Editors This paper is one of a series of Working Papers published by the Cold War International History Project of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in Washington, D.C. Established in 1991 by a grant from the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, the Cold War International History Project (CWIHP) disseminates new information and perspectives on the history of the Cold War as it emerges from previously inaccessible sources from all sides of the post-World War II superpower rivalry. Among the activities undertaken by the Project to promote this aim are the Wilson Center's Digital Archive; a periodic Bulletin and other publications to disseminate new findings, views, and activities pertaining to Cold War history; a fellowship program for historians to conduct archival research and study Cold War history in the United States; and international scholarly meetings, conferences, and seminars. The CWIHP Working Paper series provides a speedy publication outlet for researchers who have gained access to newly-available archives and sources related to Cold War history and would like to share their results and analysis with a broad audience of academics, journalists, policymakers, and students. CWIHP especially welcomes submissions which use archival sources from outside of the United States; offer novel interpretations of well-known episodes in Cold War history; explore understudied events, issues, and personalities important to the Cold War; or improve understanding of the Cold War’s legacies and political relevance in the present day.
