Research Abstract |
This report describes all the 211 incidents of lese majesty and 22 related cases with references. Those incidents are classified into (1) filed crimes with respect to criminal law and other related ones, and (2) what was morally considered to be lese majesty. In both cases, there are a great variety in who/what was disrespected and how they were expressed. This report is the first attempt to record them in a volume and will surely be a valuable resource for the future reseaches.
