The presentation will review developments in Thai politics since the military coup d'etat of 19 September 2006, including judicial actions to curtail the power of former premier Thaksin Shinawatra and his allies; constitutional revision and the conserva-tive turn; the election of December 2007; the return of the People's Alliance for De-mocracy; the PAD occupation of Government House and the airports; the role of network monarchy; the growing, colour-coded societal divides in Thailand; the rise and fall of the People's Power Party; and the Abhisit government and resistance from the redshirts. The talk will draw upon several recent periods of research conducted in Bangkok and Pattani.
Prof. Duncan McCargo teaches Southeast Asian politics at the University of Leeds (Faculty of Education, Social Science and Law).

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
