Patriotic Criminals
Existing literature on Chinese-origin transnational criminals in Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands tends to portray the problem as a pathology afflicting China equally, or as being beyond China’s control. In contrast, this paper presents cases where there is evidence of a crime-state nexus in forms ranging from deliberate to opportunistic. It applies McCoy’s concept of the ‘covert netherworld’ to a Sinic domain where business, criminal and U…
Cobra Gold over four decades
This article investigates two research questions: firstly, whether small state hedging can be compatible with alliances, and secondly, what Thailand’s troubled alliance with the United States portends for regional order. To derive answers, this article exploits the heuristic value of the Asia Pacific region’s oldest and largest military exercise, the United States-Thailand sponsored multilateral Exercise Cobra Cold. Military exercises are under r…
Thailand's 2023 Election
This article introduces a Special Issue on Thailand's 2023 election. The articles unravel the factors driving the surprising results of the 14 May poll, which prima facie delivered impressively liberal outcomes, only later to be confounded by a series of conservative moves. Drawing on rich empirical data from fieldwork, interviews, and surveys, the articles uncover important societal and political changes that produced the election results, espec…
Authoritarian Securitisation and Moral Panic
In Thailand's 2023 election, an appointed Senate controlled who became prime minister. To better understand the thinking of key actors in this critical moment, this paper examines the discourse of senators who publicly commented prior to the 13 July joint sitting of the Thai parliament, where election-winning candidate Pita Limcharoenrat was blocked. This paper argues that the two predominant narratives justifying the veto, protecting Thailand's …

Explaining ‘Grey Capital’
Through an examination of 'grey capital', transnational operations that combine legitimate and illegitimate business, this article contributes to literatures on China's investment in peripheral states.Taking a crossborder sociological approach, it argues that China's 'grey capital' flows into Southeast Asia are facilitated by a social isomorphism, in which both sending and receiving states are characterised by informal relationships creating poro…
Where Great Powers Meet
Thai Politics in Translation
Less than a year after their overthrow of the Thai absolute monarchy on June 24, 1932, the revolutionaries wrote an apology to the deposed king Prajadhipok Rama VII (1925–35). Prajadhipok responded graciously, commending the authors and expressing hopes for a cordial relationship. However, secretly, Prajadhipok had also placed the signatories on a list for capital punishment, to be actioned should he regain power.While it is true that the 1932 re…
From Neoliberalism to Geoeconomics
hina's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) markets itself as the re-creation of the ancient Silk Road that linked Europe and Central Asia hundreds of years ago. In mainland Southeast Asia, the archaeology of the BRI is somewhat more recent. Here, the Indochina Peninsula Economic Corridor of the BRI is being built on plans and routes laid down just a few decades ago. In particular, the BRI is integrating with the five subcorridors of the North-South Ec…
Strategic Culture and Thailand's Response to Vietnam's Occupation of Cambodia, 1979–1989
Thailand's role in the Cold War is often seen through the prism of its support for U.S. operations during the Vietnam War. Yet after the departure of U.S. troops from Thai territory in 1976, the Thai government was largely left to fend for itself. Soon after the U.S. withdrawal, a serious crisis arose for Thailand: Vietnam's invasion and occupation of Cambodia from 1979 to 1989. Scholars have examined Thailand's diplomacy during this period but h…

War as Membership
International relations scholars and historians have long debated the reasons for Siam’s maintenance of formal political independence during the colonial period. Territorial concessions and intra-great-power agreements are recognised as important, but attention is beginning to be paid to the solidarist and normative aspects of Siam’s diplomacy. I argue that Siam’s stance in World War I, first as a neutral nation, and then as a belligerent, allowe…
Two‐Level Games and Australia's Defence Procurement
As a country largely free of the corruption that bedevils the defence procurement of many of Australia's Asian neighbours, it is generally assumed that Australia's national security interests, together with value for money, are the paramount criteria for Australia's defence procurement. This is an assumption, however, that deserves critical interrogation, particularly with respect to the influence that domestic politics can have on strategic deci…
Advocating the rules-based order in an era of multipolarity
Faced with eroding United States hegemony and the rise of a more multipolar distribution of global power, Australia has embraced a new foreign policy platform built around advocacy for a ‘rules-based global order’. In this essay I first argue that the emerging characterisation of multipolarity overemphasises the centrality of the United States and overlooks the legacies of Asian colonisation, decolonisation, state-building and local norm developm…
Mnemonic hegemony, spatial hierarchy and Thailand’s official commemoration of the Second World War
Commemoration of the Second World War in Southeast Asia varies significantly, from countries that have chosen to use the memory of Japanese occupation as a means of strengthening national unity, to those that pay little attention because doing so would distract from their own independence struggle. Thailand is one of those countries that downplays its official memory of the Second World War. This article investigates why, given that the Second Wo…
