Description:

In Revolution Interrupted Tyrell Haberkorn focuses on this period when political activism briefly opened up the possibility for meaningful social change. Tenant farmers and their student allies fomented revolution, she shows, not by picking up guns but by invoking laws--laws that the Thai state ultimately proved unwilling to enforce.

Brief description: Tyrell Haberkorn is an associate professor in the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Review Quotes: " A fascinating and detailed book for anyone interested in Thai history."--Southeast Asia Research
