Outline of Final Research Achievements

This is a result of research on village civil society (prachakhom) as the basis for the emergence of civil society and development in Thailand’s northeastern region. We concluded that prachakhom was the foundation of the formation process for Civil Society. Prachakhom as a gathering of people has been an integral part of Thai society, while the civil society movement was a new idea derived from the West. In this research, we intend to analyze many aspects of civil society movement from the perspective of public sphere, social capital and prachakhom using quantitative and qualitative data.
On 22 May 2014, the Royal Thai Armed Forces launched a coup d'etat against the caretaker government of Thailand. The military established a junta called National Council for Peace and Order to govern the nation. It is necessary to consider the influence in the formation process for civil society, especially village civil society, prachakhom.
