Why do Thai governments fail in maintaining peace through conducting a reconciliation process? This article answers this question through an assessment of how the term reconciliation has been defined and used by the Thai governments and political leaders during the past decades. This article finds that the political conflicts in Thailand have never been solved because several times, reconciliation in the Thai language is a term that has been dynamically interpreted and applied by leaders of the conflicting groups as a means to defeat the people of the opposing groups rather that a means of resolving problems and reconciling society.

和解作为泰国当前冲突中的政治话语

为什么泰国政府未能通过和解进程维持和平？本文通过评估过去几十年泰国政府和政治领导人如何定义和使用和解一词来回答这个问题。本文发现泰国的政治冲突从未得到解决，因为多次泰语中的和解是一个被冲突团体领导人动态解释和应用的术语，作为击败对立团体人民的手段，而不是那是解决问题和调和社会的一种手段。
