In this real-time Skyped talk, Prof. Thongchai Winichakul will discuss how the ongoing political crisis in Thailand is not simply a conflict among the elite groups in which the ordinary people are pawns. Fundamentally, the political polarization was triggered by the friction between a changing political demography and royalists caught in unsettling anxiety over monarchical succession. In historical perspective, the crisis shows the growing pains of the Thai democratization process.
Thongchai Winichakul is Professor of History at University of Wisconsin-Madison and the current President of the Association for Asian Studies (AAS). His research interests are in the cultural and intellectual history of Siam including nationalism, modern geography and cartography, and historical knowledge. His book, Siam Mapped: A History of the Geo-Body of a Nation (1994), now considered one of the seminal texts in Southeast Asian Studies, was awarded the Harry Benda Prize from the Association for Asian Studies in 1995 and the Grand Prize from the Asian Affairs Research Council (Japan) in 2004. He was a recipient of the John Simon Guggenheim Award in 1994 and elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2003. As a prominent student leader in Thailand in the mid-1970s, Prof. Winichakul was arrested and imprisoned for two years by the military junta during its brutal crackdown on national protests in October 1976.
