"Essays on Thailand’s Economy and Society" 

    The work of Professor Chatthip Nartsupha has been marked by a passionate humanitarianism and a creative approach to understanding the political economy of Thailand from past to present. The essays offered here in his honor by former students, colleagues, and admirers share the same focus. Key themes are the interplay of power and property through history, gender in past and present, culture and ethnicity, and the inequities and injustices of society.

    The collection begins with a review of Chatthip's critics by Craig J. Reynolds. Other contributors include Atsushi Kitahara. Cholthira Satyawadhana. Chris Baker. Eiji Murashima. Junko Koizumi. Kullada Kesboonchu-Mead. Pasuk Phongpaichit. Porphant Ouyyanont. Shigeharu Tanabe. and Ukrist Pathmanand. The collection is a fitting tribute to one of the luminaries of Thai intellectual life.

    This is one of nine volumes published to mark Professor Chatthip's sixth cycle. The others (mainly in Thai) are on the following themes: Philosophy and Essence of History and Social Science. The Tai: Familiality and Communitarianism in Thai Society: Economic. Political and Social History: Cultural History; The Thai and Others: Social and Political Thought: Religion. Belief and Society
