Thailand's street politics have shattered the image of a smiling nation.Since 2006,with the replacement of Thailand's prime minister,"yellow shirts" against "red shirts" to a periodic,appear even the violence,worsening the political situation in the country.Thailand's street political movement has had an impact on the country's political stability,economic development and social solidarity.Therefore,through the streets of Thailand since the 21 st century political causes,development process and the influence of research,will help to find the key to solve the problem,Thailand's political crisis,and countries to provide certain reference to similar problem.Second,China will continue to deepen the friendly relations between the "one family member of China and Thailand" without interfering in Thailand's internal affairs.On the basis of studying the modern history of Thailand,this paper starts from the evolution of street politics.First,by sorting out the development of Thai street politics,the supporters of "yellow shirts" and "red shirts" are distinguished.Secondly,the causes of street politics in Thailand are analyzed.Thirdly,summarizes the adverse effects of Thailand's street political movement on Thailand's political,economic and social development.Finally,the paper analyzes the influence of street politics on the relations between Thailand and the United States,the relations between Thailand and the European Union and China and Thailand.Through the study of Thai street politics in the 21 st century,this paper argues that the "yellow shirts" and "red shirts" component members represent the different class of Thailand,street politics is the product of the middle class and the peasant class contradictions,the "red shirts" as an emerging middle class is more appropriate.Thai street political movement has positive influence,Thaksin's policies not only increase the lower class citizens of the income,more important is to let them realize they can vote to share the political rights,and maintain their own interests,that is why they always supported him letters.The red shirts and the yellow shirts have a coalition of political parties,and the yellow shirts' supporters include members of the royal family and the army.Populism is an important driver of Thai street politics.Street politics were disrupted by the coup.Unable to control street politics,the military used a coup to temporarily calm the situation at home.Thailand's street politics are characterised by the absence of outside interference.As a result of Thai street politics,the ultimate winners of 21st-century Thai street politics are neither "yellow shirts" nor "red shirts",let alone thaksin,but the royal family and the army.With the current government showing no sign of returning to power,the future of Thailand's street politics will be reignited by opposition to the military government and by a new general election.At the same time,it is doubtful whether a similar political crisis will be resolved successfully after the accession of ramah x Bhumibol Adulyadej,whose popularity is far from that of ramah ix Maha Vajiralongkorn.
