It captures aspects of Thai society that have changed dramatically over the past years and that have turned Thailand into a society that is different from what most people outside the country know and expect. The social transition of Thailand has been marked by economic growth, population restructuring, social and cultural development, political movements, and many reforms including the national health care system. The book covers the social, cultural, and economic changes as well as political situations. It discusses both historical contexts and emerging issues. It includes chapters on social and public health concerns, and on ethnicity, gender, sexuality and social class. Most chapters use information from empirical-based and historical research. They describe real life experiences of the contributors and Thai people who participated in the research. 000696925 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed January 20, 2014). 000696925 651_0 $$aThailand$$xSocial conditions. 000696925 651_0 $$aThailand$$xSocial life and customs. 000696925 651_0 $$aThailand$$xPolitics and government. 000696925 7001_ $$aLiamputtong, Pranee,$$d1955-,$$eeditor of compilation. 000696925 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000696925 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-7244-1$$zOnline Access 000696925 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:696925$$pGLOBAL_SET 000696925 980__ $$aEBOOK 000696925 980__ $$aBIB 000696925 982__ $$aEbook 000696925 983__ $$aOnline 000696925 994__ $$a92$$bISE
