Reflecting on the category of 'constitutional monarchy' and its relation with notions of the Rule of Law, it investigates the hybridised semi-authoritarian, semi-liberal monarchy that exists in Thailand. It goes further to show the institutionalised nature of the Thai monarchy by studying its constitutional texts in light of local doctrine. These findings challenge commonly accepted claims about Thailand, arguing that any political and constitutional instability is not the result of its borrowing from Western constitutionalism, as generally thought. Rather, it shows how the monarchy's use of constitutional elements, 'bricolaged' from various legal traditions and hybridised with Buddhist doctrines, is the prime driver of that instability. Drawing on materials and sources not previously available in English, this important work provides a comprehensive and critical account of the Thai 'mixed constitutional monarchy' from the late nineteenth century to the present day"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 282-317) and index. 650 0 $a Constitutional law $z Thailand. 650 0 $a Monarchy $x Political aspects $z Thailand. 651 0 $a Thailand $x Politics and government. 650 7 $a Constitutional law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00875797 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 651 7 $a Thailand. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205310 776 08 $i Ebook version: $a Merieau, Eugenie. $t Constitutional bricolage. $d Oxford : Hart, 2022 $w (OCoLC)1238133678 $z 9781509927708 830 0 $a Constitutionalism in Asia (Hart Publishing (Oxford, England)) 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20230517011811.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=11FE892AAF2611EC897049F049ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
