The Politics of the Constitutional Amendment Regarding The
วารสารรัฐศาสตร์และรัฐประศาสนศาสตร์ ปีที่ 11 ฉบับที่ 2 (กรกฎาคม-ธันวาคม 2563): 219-252 When the Minority Overruled the Majority: The Politics of the Constitutional Amendment Regarding the Acquisition of Senators in Thailand in 20131 Purawich Watanasukh2 Received: April 17, 2019 Revised: June 30, 2019 Accepted: July 12, 2019 Abstract In 2013, the ruling Pheu Thai Party, backed by former premier Thaksin Shinawatra, proposed an amendment to the 2007 Constitution by making the Senate fully elected. Drafted after the 2006 coup, the 2007 Constitution created a senate that consists of half elected and half appointed senators. Controversially, the Constitutional Court ruled that this amendment was unconstitutional because it attempts to overthrow the democratic regime of government with the king as head of state. Why was this constitutional amendment unsuccessful? This paper argues that this amendment must be understood in terms of political struggle between the new elite rising from electoral politics (Thaksin Shinawatra and his party), which has majority of votes as its legitimacy, while the old elite (the military, bureaucracy) premises its legitimacy on traditional institutions and attempts to retain influence through unelected institutions. ค าส าคัญ Senate, Thailand, Constitution 1 This article is a part of the author’s PhD research titled “The Politics and Institutional Change in the Senate of Thailand”, funded by the University of Canterbury Doctoral Scholarship 2 Department of Political Science and International Relations, University of Canterbury, New Zealand.
