Thailand's Policies Towards China, 1949-1954 (St Antony's Series)
Description
Explaining the origins of Thailand's hostile policies towards the People's Republic of China, this book discusses the factors, international and domestic, which influenced Thai leaders' perceptions that the PRC posed a threat to Thailand. It analyzes the ways in which Thailand responded to this threat and demonstrates that Thailand's policies towards the PRC were the result of complex interactions between international and domestic politics, between "national" and "elite" interests, between psychological perception and tangible experiences, and between great-power politics and small-state survival.
