ABSTRACT The 2006 coup d'état was a milestone in the massive socio-political changes of contemporary Thailand. Architecture, as a product and representation of society, did not escape its impact. Architectural projects launched by the Thai state in the past decade, from their concepts to their architectural styles, have been built in association with this socio-political crisis. This paper examines Ultra-Thai Architecture, a new style of architecture emerging from the crisis, as ‘symbolic violence’. It considers three case studies: the new Parliament, the new Supreme Court, and the renovation of Sanam Luang (Royal Field). The article suggests that Ultra-Thai Architecture is founded on hyper-royalist and Buddhist fundamentalist ideologies that attained prominence after the 2006 coup d’état, and that were further strengthened after the latest coup in 2014, which was strongly supported by the Thai military junta and traditional elites. The architectural spaces and forms of state buildings are designed to buttress the political ideologies of the state and to oppose the pro-democracy movement that has been growing for more than ten years.

2006 年政变后的超泰式建筑

摘要 2006 年的政变是当代泰国大规模社会政治变革的里程碑。建筑作为社会的产物和代表,也未能逃脱其影响。泰国政府在过去十年推出的建筑项目,从概念到建筑风格,都是与这场社会政治危机相关的。本文将超泰式建筑,一种从危机中兴起的新型建筑风格,视为“象征性暴力”。它考虑了三个案例研究:新议会、新最高法院和 Sanam Luang(皇家球场)的翻新。这篇文章表明,超泰式建筑建立在 2006 年政变后获得突出地位的超级保皇主义和佛教原教旨主义意识形态,2014 年最近的政变得到了泰国军政府和传统精英的大力支持,这种政变得到了进一步加强。国家建筑的建筑空间和形式旨在支撑国家的政治意识形态,反对已经发展了十多年的民主运动。
