Triggered by the sense of crisis, the Thai state and Thai Buddhism are renewing their traditional relationship kindled by the monarch-led reform over a century ago. Thai Buddhism is reviving its lost aura and hegemony while the political conservatives are looking for legitimacy and collective identity in a time of democratic regression. The result is the rise of the Buddhist-nationalistic movement, Buddhist-as-Thainess notion. The phenomenon has grown more mainstream in recent years. These extreme Buddhists pressure the government to adopt a new constitutional relationship that brings the two entities closer to a full establishment. They also target both religious minorities as well as non-mainstream Buddhists. The revival of Buddhist nationalism foretells rising tension as well as diminishing religious freedom.

泰国佛教民族主义的复兴及其对宗教自由的不利影响

在危机感的驱使下,泰国国家和泰国佛教正在更新一个多世纪前由君主主导的改革所点燃的传统关系。泰国佛教正在恢复其失去的光环和霸权,而政治保守派则在民主倒退的时代寻找合法性和集体认同。结果是佛教民族主义运动的兴起,佛教作为泰国人的概念。近年来,这种现象变得越来越主流。这些极端佛教徒向政府施压,要求建立一种新的宪法关系,使这两个实体更接近完全建立。他们还针对宗教少数群体和非主流佛教徒。佛教民族主义的复兴预示着紧张局势的加剧以及宗教自由的减少。
