Business Associations and the New Political Economy of Thailand

This book is an analysis of the political and economic system in Thailand and argues that the country has moved away from a pure form of bureaucratic polity to a system which the author refers to as liberal corporatism. It includes information on chambers of commerce, their peak organizations and the nation's trade associations. The book should be of interest to students of Thai politics as well as to policymakers and development specialists interested in state-business relationships.
