Abstract

The traditional Thai village as an autonomous and corporate local community is a myth whose origins are located in nineteenth century Western social theory. The paper examines the dynamics of relations between local patterns of social organization and the state with particular reference to the ideology of community and the manner in which it is expressed and manipulated.
