Abstract
This study applied mixed-method approach to investigate deliberative
democracy and social movements in the social context of land conflict resolution at
Thaplan National Park. The aims of the study propose as followed: 1) to understand
changes and challenges of social histories over Thai Samakkhi Subdistrict in Thaplan
National Park, 2) to gain insights how citizens, civil society groups, and state
deliberate on land and boundary conflict resolution through storytellings and narrative
arguments on public forums, and 3) to investigate the relationships on the emotion,
the situation, and the role of public deliberation. The archived qualitative inquiry and
photovoice of qualitative inquiry help to capture how social histories and related
evidences such as aerial photographs are essential in bring about land conflict
resolution. For the in-depth interviews of 18 participants through storytellings in
Chapter 5 Part I, the thematic narrative analysis revealed 4 main themes: a) taking
account of reality on land conflict, b) encountering self-sympathy, c) engaging in
public deliberation, and d) fostering compassion by deliberation. In addition,
Narrative Arguments on Public Forums in Chapter 5 Part II illustrate how citizens,
civil society, and state make validity on the sense of justice and rationality throughout
the process of justification on arguments enough to affirm justice as fairness without
the impacts of coercion on motivated agreement in positive driven-consensus to
improve communities’ sustainability. Multiple regression brings about how the
affection and situation appraisal of Thaplan NP significantly (p-value 0.01*) predict
the role of public deliberation in four dimensions 1) expressing opinions 2) making
decision, 3) justifying the arguments, and 4) learning on public forum. This finding
pointed to the significant relationship of the affection and public deliberation. The
suggestion on land conflict resolution proposed as follows: 1) The prospect of new
boundary demarcation B.E. 2543 should be implemented due to the problem of land
boundary of overlapped area. 2) The prospect of ALRO 4-01 document as proving
land possession should be implemented. 3) The prospect of proving villagers’ right to
have their legitimacy to settlement by investigating who have been living before/
after the announcement of national park B.E. 2524. 4) The social evidences of
communities’ settlement before the announcement of national park B.E. 2524 were
illustrated over the study; 5) The complicated administrative on the departments of
the RFD, ALRO, Thaplan NP, and SAO need to be revised due to ineffective
management. This study has concentrated on narratives to convey meaning as features
of human communications on public deliberation; however, the land conflict
resolution might be challenged due to limits of specific cases, lack of time and
resources. Future research may consider in inclusion of wide rage population that
helps in bring more fruitful to legitimacy of the prospect future.
