In this episode of Talking Thai Politics, Dr Paul Chambers, talks about his new book, Praetorian Kingdom: A History of Military Ascendancy in Thailand (ISEAS, 2024). This book provides detailed insights to the military’s involvement in Thai politics over the past ninety years and more — and is an essential source for researchers and students looking to dive deeper into this topic.
Paul Chambers is an associate senior fellow in the ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute’s Thailand Studies programme. A prominent scholar best known for his expertise on the military’s role in Thai politics, Paul Chambers has spent more than two decades off-and-on in Thailand, both teaching and researching. His other books include Khaki Capital: The Political Economy of the Military in Southeast Asia (co-edited, NIAS 2017).
