Thai Popular Uprising | Political History of East Asia | Ep. 3
Episode 3
Monday, 9 August, 2021
A country I have much personal connection with as I was born here. It has seen cycles of democracy and authoritarianism swapping back and forth in the country's complex political history. The issue of the military is ever-present in Thailand today. This episode will dig deep into one of the most remarkable moments in Thai politics where the popular will for democracy was for the first time seen take concrete action and a military dictatorship was toppled. This significant event also marked a special era in Thai politics where the power of students, labourers and peasants was flourishing as a force that could no longer be seen today. Could the 1973 Popular Uprising be the perfect blueprint and inspiration for the Thai student movement today?
