post-Traumatic Growth Among Women Survivors of Intimate Partner Violence : An Analysis Through Bourdieu’s Theoretical Framework and Radical Feminist Theory

Neidniyamart Wannapayun — Wed, 31 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This article examines the processes of transition and post-traumatic growth among women who have experienced intimate partner violence through an integration of three theoretical frameworks : Pierre Bourdieu’s concepts of habitus and capital, Radical Feminist theory, and the Post-Traumatic Growth (PTG) perspective. Employing a qualitative approach based on theoretical and documentary analysis, the study argues that escaping violence is not merely a matter of survival but a complex process involving internal conflicts shaped by cultural biases and patriarchal structures. Women are required to disengage from their internalized habitus, accumulate new forms of capital, reconstruct their identities, and ultimately transform into agents of giving through psychological growth. The theoretical analysis and synthesis of existing literature reveal that post-traumatic growth emerges from processes of critical awakening, empowerment, and collective action aimed at transforming both the self and society. The article emphasizes that support for women experiencing intimate partner violence should be holistic, encompassing psychosocial, cultural, and structural dimensions, in order to foster sustainable and meaningful transitions within Thai society.

The conditions and collaborative management mechanisms among relevant stakeholders in the development of the organic rice producers network in Sisaket Province

Prathana Malithai, Luesak Saweangmee — Wed, 03 Sep 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This research aimed to investigate the conditions and collaborative management practices among relevant organizations involved in the development of organic rice farmers networks in Sisaket Province. The researcher employed a qualitative research methodology, collecting data through in-depth interviews with 13 key informants, including executives, representatives, leaders, and core practitioners of organizations who are stakeholders in policy related to the development of organic rice farmers networks in Sisaket Province. Content analysis was applied to analyze the data. The research findings revealed that the collaborative management practices among relevant organizations in developing organic rice farmers’ networks can be divided into three phases : 1) promoting the formation of organic rice farmers networks; 2) promoting organic rice production ; and 3) promoting the marketing of organic rice farmers networks. The conditions leading to successful collaborative management among these organizations according to the concept of collaborative governance, depend on; 1) communication through joint consultations among sectors to find ways to collaboratively advance their shared goals; 2) building mutual trust which serves as a motivation for cross-sectoral collaboration; and 3) exchanging resources particularly knowledge, which is crucial for managing collaborative networks, defining operational guidelines, processes, and making joint decisions effectively. Furthermore, collaborative management among sectors emerged within the context of each sector’s roles, responsibilities, and capabilities, which are shaped by differing opportunities and limitations. Such collaboration was evident from upstream activities, such as promoting the formation of organic rice farmer networks, to downstream activities, such as connecting markets for organic rice farmers networks. This ultimately contributes to strengthening the networks linkages and enhancing their competitiveness both domestically and internationally.

Analysis of The Policy of Thai Women Empowerment Funds

supaporn prakobthun, Anurat Anantanatorn — Fri, 26 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This study aims to (a) analyze the Women’s Development Fund (WDF) policy in Thailand, (b) examine its challenges and limitations, and (c) propose recommendations for policy improvement. A qualitative research approach was employed, using data collected through document analysis, in-depth interviews, and focus group discussions. Key informants included policymakers, provincial-level implementers, WDF committee chairpersons, representatives of fund members, and subject-matter experts. Participants were selected using snowball sampling until data saturation was reached. Data were analyzed through triangulation of sources, participants, and time to ensure validity and reliability.
The findings reveal that the WDF is a flagship policy initiated by the Pheu Thai Party, designed to provide low-interest loans to women’s groups to support occupational development and income generation. The fund is managed through a three-tier committee structure—national, Bangkok Metropolitan, and provincial levels—operating under centralized rules, criteria, and operational guidelines. Sustained political support has contributed to the policy’s continuity and quantitative success, reflected in the growth of membership and loan projects. However, the policy faces significant challenges. It lacks clearly defined strategic objectives, with an excessive focus on economic support rather than empowering women’s roles and capacities as originally intended. The implementation process remains highly centralized, bureaucratic, and rigid, limiting responsiveness to local needs. Genuine community participation is insufficient. Furthermore, the fund’s management system is overly technical and complex, particularly in financial administration, posing practical difficulties for local officers and committee members. Ineffective communication reduces public awareness, resulting in limited participation, primarily among those with close connections to the committees. Additionally, the absence of appropriate incentives, remuneration, and welfare for committee members and administrators diminishes their motivation, commitment, and operational effectiveness. Proposed best practices for efficiency : 1) Management 2) Regulations and measures and 3) Networking

Jihad Maluleem, Jaran Maluleem, Natthakrit Kerdoolkit, Premsiri Dilokpreechakul — Sat, 27 Dec 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This study aims to analyze the dynamics of terrorism in the digital era by integrating the conceptual frameworks of Relative Deprivation (RD) and Identity Fusion (IF) to explain the psycho–social mechanisms that drive individuals toward extremist behavior. Data collection will be conducted between 2024–2025, covering primary research sites in Thailand (with an emphasis on the Southern border provinces) and comparative case studies in Southeast Asia. The research has three objectives : 1) to analyze the structural and psychological drivers of terrorism, 2) to examine the dynamics of identity and the use of digital tools, and 3) to assess emerging risks and propose policy recommendations. The research employs a multi-method qualitative approach. The research instruments consist of : (1) a Document Analysis Form based on more than 200 secondary sources and security reports; (2) a Semi-structured Interview Guide, whose content validity (IOC) was verified by experts, used to collect data from seven respondents, including security specialists, academics, and operational officials; and (3) a Case Analysis Matrix to examine linkages among Al-Qaeda, ISIS, and armed groups in Thailand’s Southern border provinces. The collected data is subjected to content analysis and validated through triangulation.
The findings, in line with the research objectives, indicate that : 1) Drivers : Relative Deprivation (RD) functions as the “fuel” arising from structural grievances, such as inequality and identity-based marginalization, whereas Identity Fusion (IF) acts as the “trigger” that transforms emotions into violence, particularly among youth who are searching for a sense of self and are susceptible to persuasion via social networks. 2) Identity and digital dynamics: There is a clear structural shift from hierarchical organizations to decentralized networks. Violent groups increasingly employ gender strategies to attract and expand the roles of women, and they utilize propaganda via digital platforms to conduct highly targeted recruitment (micro-targeting). 3) Risks and policy: New risks stem from the use of AI and online spaces as “incubators” of violence that are difficult to monitor. The study proposes a P/CVE-oriented security policy that emphasizes building identity resilience, engaging communities and women in peace processes, and strengthening digital media literacy.
