In the long and tortuous process of democratic politics in Thailand,army is the most powerful interest group in Thailand's political power.They are the masters of Thailand's political arena.No matter which government,once the support of the army is lost or directly opposed to the army,it will bring about a disaster.The democratic political process in Thailand is a twists and way with a non-stop military coup.It is no exaggeration to say that the Thailand military military coup by the main way to overthrow the government,for military intervention,so as to safeguard their own interests,and the phenomenon of military intervention further hampered the Thailand democratic political modernization,the democratization of Thailand prospects.The Thailand democratic political history,the establishment of constitutional monarchy in 1932 80 years,Thailand's military intervention has a thick and heavy in colours:according to the historical data of Thailand from 1933 to 1944,11 years is a group of Wen led military intervention group,and then experienced a short period of three years from 1946 to 1973 civilian rule;up to 26 of the time,the politics of Thailand is carried out by the army to control,and then after three years of civilian rule;and from 1976 to 1988 12 years,Thailand politics by Bing led military intervention group,and then through three years of civilian rule again.What's worth celebrating is that since 1991,the army's political control has been decreasing since the army once again worked for the government.In 1992,it was replaced by the literati government.Then the military group continued to try to do military affairs.The Thailand military intervention of the historical process can be divided into four stages,respectively is the establishment of the democratic regime and the military dictatorship(1932-1944),the weak literati government and the Sha Li,his military dictatorship(1944-1973);the period of the "democratic experiment" and Jiang SA-the dry politics of the military(1973-1991);the problem of military affairs in the new period(1991-now).Through the analysis of the army's dry politics in the democratic politics of Thailand,we find that the construction of Thailand's political system is relatively slow.Up to now,no mature political system has yet been established.This is the fundamental institutional factor for the army's dry politics.The "sardinah" and the Buddhist culture are deeply rooted,and become a great antagonistic force in the process of democratization in Thailand,and become an important driving force for the military administration.Besides,in the process of democratization in Thailand,there are obvious phenomena of weak Democratic support force,lack of political participation and dislocation.This leads to frequent democratic politics in Thailand,and the time limit for military government to govern is much higher than that of ordinary literati.These factors further led to the constant repetition of the military affairs,which made the democratic process in Thailand slow.Therefore,as a reference,the emerging democracies in the process of the construction of democracy,we must prevent the military intervention,and constantly improve the construction of democratic politics,at the same time,adapt to construction and democratic political culture,only in this way,new democracy to succeed through the early democratic development and transformation,complete the consolidation of democracy.
