SUMMARY:The Enigma of Authority: Conflict and Continuity in Thai Politics
LOCATION:Room 0.31
DESCRIPTION:History is constantly being made and remade: witness the serial
  installation and removal of plaques in Bangkok commemorating opposing hist
 orical narratives: the 1932 People’s Party, the Chakri dynasty, and the 202
 0 democratic movement. But monuments and other spaces of commemoration are 
 not simply changing scripts of a landscape meant to be read, but proposals 
 on how to read. Such proposals form channels for different claims, claims t
 o alternative uses already inherent in the paradoxes and contradictions of 
 the everyday.\n\nThese proposals draw sustenance from what superficially ap
 pear to be mutually opposed values (e.g., egalitarianism and hierarchy, nat
 ionalism and cosmopolitanism, conspicuous consumption and religious piety).
  In this panel, we explore the way in which such moments are enabled by the
  internal vortex of such paradoxes, and their contemporaneous but mutually-
 opposed readings of history. Here, we are interested in ruptures and mergin
 gs, dissonances and polyphonies, collaborations and competitions. How do di
 fferent or opposing conceptions of politics, polity, or “past-ness” manifes
 t themselves, compete with each other, or emerge into the quotidian? To wha
 t extent do such dynamics help to explain the reputation of Southeast Asian
  polities for compromise even in the face of the threat of violence, and to
  what extent are such resolutions based in the everyday experience of life 
 in these countries?
