Andreas Sturm 2 VV Abstract This thesis presents an overview over the history of the concepts ofnation and nationalism in Thailand. Based on the ethno-symbolist approach to the study of nationalism, this thesis proposes to see the Thai nation as a result of a long process, reflecting the three-phases-model (ethnie , pre-modem and modem nation) for the potential development of a nation as outlined by Anthony Smith.

Download This Case As A
CSJ‐ 08 ‐ 0006.0 Settle or fight? Far Eastern Economic Review and Singapore In the summer of 2006, Hugo Restall—editor-in-chief of the monthly Far Eastern Economic Review (FEER)--published an article about a marginalized member of the political opposition in Singapore. The piece asserted that the Singapore government had a remarkable record of winning libel suits, which suggested a deliberate effort to neutralize opponents and subdue the press. Restall hypothesized that instances of corruption were going unreported because the incentive to investigate them was outweighed by the threat of an unwinnable libel suit. Singapore’s ruling family reacted swiftly. Lawyers for Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and his father Lee Kuan Yew, the founder of modern Singapore, asserted that the article amounted to an accusation against their clients of personal incompetence and corruption. In a series of letters, the Lees’ counsel demanded a printed apology, removal of the offending article from FEER’s website, and compensation for damages. The magazine maintained that Restall’s piece was not libelous; nonetheless, it offered to take mitigating action short of the three demands. But the Lees remained adamant. Then, in a move whose timing defied coincidence, the government Ministry of Information, Communications and the Arts informed FEER that henceforth it would be subject to new, and onerous, regulations. These actions were not without precedent. Singapore was an authoritarian, if prosperous, country. The Lee family--which claimed that the country’s ruling precepts were rooted in Confucianism, a philosophy that vested power in an enlightened ruler—tolerated no criticism. The Lees had been in charge for decades.

Reporting Asia The Asian ‘Way’ - Issues And Constraints There is a growing debate in South East Asia regarding Asian perspectives in news reporting. This has been triggered by the aftermath of the Asian financial crisis. Commentators and politicians in the region have claimed that Western media reporting has played a role in undermining their economies. There is a strong feeling that their negative reporting of the region impacted on the loss of investor confidence There are also counter moves to establish an ‘Asian Media’, where the voices of the Asian people will be heard much louder and clearer. This paper attempts to look at some of the issues underlining these moves and how such an indigenous media could develop and what bottlenecks may lie ahead.

I think a completely objective story or a completely objective publication will be a boring one to read.

Restraining Arbitrary Power in Thailand: the Sociological Approach in Examining the Rule of Law
RESTRAINING ARBITRARY POWER IN THAILAND: THE SOCIOLOGICAL APPROACH IN EXAMINING THE RULE OF LAW PORNSAKOL PANIKABUTARA COOREY A THESIS SUBMITTED IN FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF JURIDICAL SCIENCE FACULTY OF LAW UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES APRIL 2010 PLEASE TYPE THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: COOREY First name: PORNSAKOL Other name/s: PANIKABUTARA Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: SJD School: LAW Faculty: LAW Title: Restraining arbitrary power in Thailand: The sociological approach in examining the rule of law Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) The primary objective of this thesis is to develop and use a new framework to examine the existence of the rule of law in Thailand. Many writers believe that Thailand is a nation which lacks sufficient constraint on the exercise of arbitrary power. These writers often blame the judiciary and other key institutions for not curbing corruption and other forms of abuses of power. While each writer adopts a different approach in analysing the rule of law, their views are almost always taken out of context and do not tell the entire story. This is considered as inadequate, as these views often fail to appreciate the core sociological aspects of the rule of law. It is these core sociological aspects which are considered as essential to understanding the way the rule of law operates in Thailand. Without a proper understanding of the traditions and culture of Thailand, it is misguiding to simply transplant the classic view of the rule of law and compare its key institutions in an ad hoc way.

The Role of the Nation-State: Evolution of STAR TV in China and India By
The role of the nation-state: Evolution of STAR TV in China and India By Yu-li Chang Assistant Professor Department of Communication Northern Illinois University E-mail: [email protected] Tel: (815)753-1711 Copyright © 2006 by Yu-li Chang Paper Submitted to the 6th Annual Global Fusion Conference Chicago, 2006 Abstract The purpose of this study is to examine the role of the nation-state by analyzing the evolution of STAR TV’s in India and China. STAR TV, the first pan-Asian satellite television, represents the global force; while the governments in India and China represent the local forces faced with challenges brought about by globalization. This study found that the nation-states in China and India still were forces that had to be dealt with. In China, the state continued to exercise tight control over foreign broadcasters in almost every aspect – be it content or distribution. In India, the global force seemed to have greater leverage in counteracting the state, but only in areas where the state was willing to compromise, such as allowing entertainment channels to be fully owned by foreign broadcasters. In areas where the government thought needed protection to ensure national security and identity, the state still exercised autonomy to formulate and implement policies restricting the global force. Author Bio The author earned her Ph.D. from the E.W. Scripps School of Journalism at Ohio University in 2000 and is now an assistant professor in the department of communication at Northern Illinois University. Her major research interest focuses on globalization of mass media, especially programming strategies of transnational satellite broadcasters in Asia and the implications of their programming strategies on theory building in the research field of globalization.

Duncan Mccargo and Ukrist Pathmanand
Mc A fascinating insight into Thai politics in the lead-up to the Thaksin revolution c Since 1932, Thai politics has undergone numerous political ‘reforms’, often accompanied by constitutional revisions and shifts in the argo location of power. Following the events of May 1992, there were strong pressures from certain groups in Thai society for a fundamental overhaul of the political order, culminating in the drafting and promulgation of a new constitution in 1997. However, constitutional reform is only one small part of a wide r range of possible reforms, including that of the electoral system, education, the bureaucracy, health and welfare, the media – and even the military. Indeed, the economic crisis which engulfed efor Thailand in 1997 led to a widespread questioning of the country’s social and political structures. With the sudden end of rapid economic growth, the urgency of reform and adaptation to Thailand’s changing circumstances became vastly more acute. It was against M this background that the Thai parliament passed major changes to ing the electoral system in late 2000, just weeks before the January 2001 election. Reflecting on the twists and turns of reform in Thailand over the edited by years and with the first in-depth scholarly analysis of how successful Thai were the recent electoral reforms, this volume is a ‘must have’ for everyone interested in Thai politics and its impact on the wider Asian Duncan Mccargo political scene. “[a] timely book on the “new” Thai politics which certainly contributes a Poli great deal to

22/Apr 02-1/88/04/14 Address by Prime Minister Mr Lee Kuan
1 Release No : 22/APR 02-1/88/04/14 ADDRESS BY PRIME MINISTER MR LEE KUAN YEW TO THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF NEWSPAPER EDITORS ON THURSDAY, 14APRIL 1988, IN WASHINGTON D C Introduction The media play a key role in the life of every country, but it is a role which differs from one country to another. When these differences are misunderstood or ignored, as frequently happens with Western media operating in developing countries, the result is friction. Experience of Other Countries In the US, the press enjoys considerable influence in political and public affairs. This US model is a particularly important one. It represents the ultimate in terms of media freedoms and prerogatives. lky/1988/lky0414A.doc 2 In March 1987 the US State Department explained in an aide memoire to the Singapore Ministry of Foreign Affairs that it deplored the government’s action to restrict the sale of the Asian Wall Street Journal despite the fact that the Journal had refused the Singapore Government the right of reply to an inaccurate report. It was because Americans believed that “the press (should be) free to publish or not its actions may seem to be” *. The logic is that “where the media are free, the marketplace of ideas sorts the irresponsible from the responsible and rewards the latter” **. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- US State Department Aide Memoire, 10 Mar 87. ** ibid. But the US model is not a universal standard. The media in other countries play different roles. These roles have grown out of their different historical experiences, political systems, and national temperaments.
