ABSTRACTThis article argues that a perceived liberal ‘defection’ to a 2006 military coup in Thailand can help illuminate the authoritarian face of liberalism during an existential crisis; more provisionally, it is proposed that the Thai experience may provide lessons for understanding liberal decisionism. Detailing a single case has the advantage of embedding the discussion in cultural, historical and political detail without which the action is incomprehensible. The article applies decisionist and morphological theory and historical analysis as it explores the factors and motives leading to liberal coup complicity. The article’s chief objective is to make intelligible a form of liberal extra-constitutional decisionism in a non-western setting. 相似文献

This article considers the failure of consociationalism ‐ claimed by its proponents to be the best form of democracy for countries characterized by ethnic cleavages ‐ to provide any plausible solution to the dilemmas that faced political elites in South Africa as they exited from apartheid and moved towards majoritarian democracy. The basic argument here is that consociationalism's one‐dimensional approach to ethnic politics depleted the model of any pragmatic utility, especially when it became evident that the ethnic equation in South Africa was more fluid than the consociational model had entertained. 相似文献

Although many people date critical commentary on the Thai monarchy to Paul Handley's explosive biography The King Never Smiles: A Biography of Thailand's Bhumibol Adulyadej, this article demonstrates the existence of a consistently critical body of work, in the English language, that emerged contemporaneously with the king's growing stature from the 1980s. It also considers the conditions that have led to wider and more vocal criticisms since the coup of 2006. The primary focus is an exploration of new contributions to this critical commentary by the authors of the edited collection Saying the Unsayable: Monarchy and Democracy in Thailand. It identifies tensions across the chapters, including different emphases on liberalism and conservatism, and on the symbolic functioning of the monarchy. 相似文献

Coding statements of criminal suspects facilitated tests of four hypotheses about differences between behavioral cues to deception
and the incriminating potential (IP) of the topic. Information from criminal investigations corroborated the veracity of 337
brief utterances from 28 videotaped confessions. A four-point rating of topic IP measured the degree of potential threat per
utterance. Cues discriminating true vs. false comprised word/phrase repeats, speech disfluency spikes, nonverbal overdone,
and protracted headshaking. Non-lexical sounds discriminated true vs. false inthe reverse direction. Cues that distinguished
IP only comprised speech speed, gesticulation amount, nonverbal animation level, soft weak vocal and “I (or we) just” qualifier.
Adding “I don't know” to an answer discriminated both IP and true vs. false. The results supported hypothesis about differentiating
deception cues from incriminating potential cues in high-stakes interviews, and suggested that extensive research on distinctions
between stress-related cues and cues to deception would improve deception detection. 相似文献

It is generally acknowledged that reform of both values and institutions is necessary for Japan's survival in a changing world. How Japan approaches and achieves administrative reform will be crucial in determining the impact of that reform. In this article, Dr. Lesley Connors of the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London, compares the paths to administrative reform taken by the United Kingdom and Japan and asks whether the lessons learned fr om the UK” s adoption of the New Whitehall model have anything to teach Japanese reformers. 相似文献
