Rituals of National Loyalty an Anthropology of the State and the Village Scout Movement in Thailand
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Columbia Univ Pr
- Publish date: 10/01/1997
Description:
In the 1970s, the Thai state organized the Village Scout movement to counter communist insurgency. The movement was soon used to thwart growing demands for democratic reform, recruiting five million members to become the largest mass organization in Thai history, and, mobilized by the military-controlled media, helped topple a civilian government and restore military rule. This book bridges both the macro and micro levels of analysis to place the dynamics of a national political movement within a richly detailed account of its working at the village level.
