Description

This scholarly examination from Routledge explores the intersection of Buddhist traditions and Thai royal authority across two centuries of transformation. The work investigates how kingship has functioned as a spiritual and political institution within Thailand's unique religious and cultural framework, analysing the complex relationship between Buddhist practices, royal ceremonial rituals, and the consolidation of state power. Part of the Studies in Material Religion and Spirituality series, the book provides interdisciplinary perspectives on how successive Thai monarchs have leveraged Buddhist legitimacy to maintain influence and authority, whilst navigating modernisation, political change and international relations. The text draws on historical records, ethnographic observation and theological analysis to reveal how Buddhist kingship remains central to Thai national identity and governance structures in the contemporary era.
