Puangchon unchanam, royal capitalism
Royal Capitalism: Wealth, Class, and Monarchy in Thailand scrutinizes the zig-zag evolution of monarchical power in Thailand, from early absolutism, to near-extinction in the 1930s, to its rebound
Constraints to effective comanagement of New Zealand's customary fisheries
Centralization of fisheries management within large-scale, colonial governing bodies can remove access and management rights of Indigenous communities and deplete marine resources through a mismatch in bioecological and managerial scales. Management of pāua (blackfoot abalone, Haliotis iris ) in Aotearoa New Zealand exemplifies this transition from small-scale fisheries management by tangata whenua (local Indigenous people with historical claim t…
Khaki Capital and Coups in Thailand and Myanmar
Military-run business activities can turn into an unrestrained form of parasitic capitalism, preying on national economies. The militaries of Thailand and Myanmar have evolved as predatory “khaki capitalist” institutions. Thailand’s military, deriving its legitimacy as guardian of the monarchy, has used that role to justify its accumulation of economic resources. Myanmar’s military, in power for most of the decades since independence, has invoked…
Producing the self
This article demonstrates how the availability of music platforms, the guidance of online tutorials and user-friendly affordances of software interfaces have democratised the making of electronic music. Software users traverse new forms of technology as part of their social and cultural selves, the confluence of musical affiliation and specific social media platforms supporting the production and exploration of identity. Case studies of women and…

Introduction
The Introduction to this Special Issue explains who the Rohingya people are, their relevance with regard to this Special Issue, why it focuses upon their experiences in Asia today, how Covid-19 has affected them and what might be their future. It also presents summaries of each of the papers in the Special Issue
Peacebuilding in Thailand’s Deep South and in Myanmar/Burma
There are few if any comparative studies of Thailand’s Deep South and Burma/Myanmar’s Rohingya crisis. Both cases are intriguing as they have similar characteristics, while nuanced by distinctive contexts and political consequences. In this article, the comparative analysis of crisis issues in the two countries concentrates on history, policy responses of governments, and peace processes. Burma/Myanmar and Thailand are Buddhist majority countries…
Repatriation for Rohingya asylum seekers in Indonesia
Rohingya are among multiple refugees and asylum seekers who have arrived in Indonesia without any certainty of their futures. For most Rohingya refugees, Indonesia is a transit country, where they register with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees Refugee Agency before being allowed to relocate to third countries. Indonesia did not sign the 1951 Convention on Refugee Status and does not officially accept refugees for permanent resett…
The Studio as Contemporary Autonomous Zone
This article explores electronic music making in a context of precarity and climate crisis. I use ethnographic research conducted in the Australian city of Adelaide and the provocative ideas of nineteenth century German philosopher, Max Stirner, to situate the electronic music studio as a contemporary autonomous zone, an interface between creative expression and capitalist existence. I argue that the studio functions as a physical and psychologic…

The Resilience of Monarchised Military in Thailand
This paper argues that conventional notions of Thailand's military must be re-examined because they misrepresent the military's role in politics. Instead of examining its material interests, one must also scrutinise the power and legitimacy of Thailand's armed forces in terms of its connection to monarchy over time. The relationship between monarchy and military represents a "parallel state", whereas the ideology, rituals and processes within thi…
Federico Ferrara. The Political Development of Modern Thailand
Why has Thailand’s political history since 1932, involving a seemingly unending succession of coups and constitutions, been so unstable? Why has the same fundamental struggle between monarchists an
Superficial Consolidation
Civilian control of the military is a sine qua non for democratic consolidation. In the Philippines, the armed forces have played a major role in the country's authoritarian past. Yet, despite the advent of democracy, vestiges of authoritarianism have persisted. This chapter analyzes the successes and failures in the efforts of Philippine civilians — through the executive branch — to gain authority over their military, with the objective of achie…

Military “Shadows” in Thailand Since the 2006 Coup
In contemporary Thailand, achieving effective civilian control of the armed forces is a daunting challenge. The country's long series of military coups are one outcome of the operational independence generally enjoyed by the military. In most cases, these military interventions have sought to support the political ambitions of the palace and its networks. For almost a decade, Thai politics has been polarized by reactions to the electoral success …
Understanding Civil-Military Relations Today
Like other young Asian democracies, Thailand has seen its military play a leading role in the country's authoritarian past. Yet despite the advent of democracy, vestiges of authoritarianism have continued to linger. This study analyzes relations of civilians and soldiers with regard to their balance of decision-making power in the case of Thailand, introducing a framework for analyzing civilian control. Yet exactly how has the civil-military bala…
Beyond the fallacy of coup-ism
It is consensus in the democratization literature that civilian control of the military is a necessary ingredient for democracy and democratic consolidation. However, there is considerable disagreement on what civilian control of the military exactly entails and there is a lack of solid theoretical arguments for how weak or absent civilian control affects democratic governance. Furthermore, a considerable portion of the research literature is cap…

Unravelling Intra-Party Democracy in Thailand
This survey aims to analyze the state of intra-party democracy (IPD) in Thailand. IPD is defined as a characteristic of the distribution of decision-making power among members and leaders within a political party along the two principal dimensions of inclusiveness and decentralization. The amount of organizational details that could be used to describe parties' procedures with regard to all aspects of their internal life is placed into three gene…
Factions, Parties and the Durability of Parliaments, Coalitions and Cabinets
Did Thailand's multiple parties and factions influence cabinet and coalition durability in the period 1979 to 2001? If so, which one — parties or factions — was the more significant? Taking a Transaction Costs Analysis approach, this article addresses these questions and argues that intra-party factions, as the building blocks of Thai parliamentary politics, have been more important than parties, such that each additional faction in a cabinet tri…

Thailand on the Brink
Thailand's current partisan turmoil is paralleling growing authoritarianism and democratic decay. This article examines contemporary Thai civil-military relations, the state of armed forces unity, and potential outcomes. It argues that amid heightened political uncertainty and diminished democracy, the only surety today is an enhanced role for Thailand's armed forces
Public Religion and Political Change in Wales
This article examines the experiences of a range of faith groups in Wales drawn from 40 interviews with these groups and related organizations. The principal aim of the project from which the data are drawn was to study experiences of change within the religious sphere in Wales, most notably changes brought about by the process of devolution since 1999. The article has three main concerns. First, drawing on Casanova's idea of a 'public religion',…

Where Agency Meets Structure
Since 1992, Thailand's young democracy has sought to ensure civilian control over its military. Yet since the 2006 coup, the military has become a powerful political actor and Thai democracy has eroded. As such, institutionalizing civilian control has become particularly challenging. This article examines civil-military relations in Thailand and argues that while civilian agents have initiated moves towards political outcomes of civil-military re…

Guinée
En décembre 2003, le président Conté a été réélu au terme d'un processus électoral boycotté par l'opposition. La communauté internationale a réagi mollement aux manipulations du régime, estimant que le pouvoir en place constituait un rempart utile contre le désordre régional. La « longévité » du régime Conté a cependant un prix : le délabrement de l'économie et la montée des tensions à l'intérieur de la société guinéenne. Si, dans l'immédiat, la …

Coming to Terms with the Past
English The authors examine how Wales, a country in which, historically, national and religious identities were closely related, has been transformed by a process of secularization, and more recently by migration and political change. Recent discussions of change in Wales, however, have paid scant attention to the contemporary place of religions in Welsh society. Religion, if it is considered at all, is largely consigned to the past. The purpose …

The Jamaican Creole speaker in the UK justice system
This article explores intelligibility between the Jamaican vernacular, an English-based lexicon Creole language, and English. It examines discourse in pre-trial interviews conducted by functionaries in the UK criminal justice system, usually police and customs officers and lawyers, with Jamaican Creole (JC)-dominant or monolingual speakers who are typically persons suspected or accused of offences or potential witnesses of offences. Using discour…

Edgy Amity along the Mekong
In 1994, the opening of the Friendship Bridge commenced an apparent thawing of ties between Thailand and Lao People's Democratic Republic (PDR). Out of deep socio-historical antagonisms and Cold War acrimony, the two countries seemed suited now for amity. But amity has continued to be edgy. Meanwhile, other countries in the region—China and Vietnam—vie for influence with Thailand over Lao. Amidst a rapidly integrating Mekong market and changing r…
