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.

  • Thai Or Siam? 70 NAMES
    Vol. 36, Nos. 1 & 2 (March - June 1988) 69 Thai or SiaDl? Preecha Juntanamalaga Apart from Siamese cats, Siamese twins, and - of course -Anna and the Kj,ngof Siam, readers may have encountered the phrase "Thailand (formerly Siam)" in anything ranging for scholarly tomes to travel brochures. What is the story behind this two-name situation, and why, when, how (and how many times) did the name of the country change? Below we suggest answers to these questions, fust giving a somewhat sweeping thousand-year historical overview. We then see how the two names Siam and Thailand (along with related forms Siamese and Thai) function in present-day usage, where they have an interesting but somewhat complicated set of semantic associations. In general, names used formerly as toponym and ethnic term respectively have, in one sense at least, come to communicate dif- ferent ideological positions in current Thai political debates. This is clarified below. Finally, as an epilogue, we briefly consider how some Western scholars have recently been using (or avoiding) one or another of the two names.1 First Era: AD 600-1250 The word Siam (in the form syam) fust occurs in Old Khmer inscriptions of the seventh century (starting in A.D.611), although this has not been general- ly recognized? The meaning is not certain, but it is probably a toponym refer- ring to some location in the lower Chao Phraya River basin. In surviving inscriptions of this period, syam occurs four times to designate female slaves ("ku syam,,)3 and once to identify a landlord-official ("pon syam"), who donates rice fields to a temple.4 In one case syam occurs in a list where the preceding entry has the word vrau in the same sentence position.s Vrau has been con- sidered the name of an ethnolinguistic minority group, possibly ancestors of the modem Bru or Brau people (Jenner 297).

During the reign of his brother, he was known for his important role in the campaigns against Bodawpaya of Burma.

    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.

  • 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
