Abstract

ABSTRACTBased on narratives from civil societal actors that have been involved in some way in the conflict over Khao Phra Wihan, this paper concerns the construction of the Thai nation, and how that is resisted. The paper brings together social constructivist views on nationalism with research on everyday, low-scale, individual, non-organized, covert, low-profile forms of resistance. The way nationalism is resisted in the borderland can be categorized into three main themes: (1) Everyday resistance through evasion, (2) Everyday resistance through re-categorization, and (3) Everyday resistance through re-imagination.
