Abstract
This thesis, entitled "peacebuilding in southern thailand: the roles of the southern border provinces administrative center (sbpac)," investigates the contributions of the sbpac to peacebuilding efforts in the conflict-affected region of southern thailand. The study addresses the following research questions: how the thai government has tackled the insurgency, the major impacts and achievements of the sbpac since its reinstatement in 2006, the sbpac’s contributions to peacebuilding, and the constraints and challenges faced by the sbpac in achieving its goals. The primary objective of this research is to explore the role of the sbpac in peacebuilding, focusing on its policies, strategies, and practices, and to identify opportunities and challenges for effective and sustainable interventions. The study employs a qualitative methodology, utilizing discourse theory and analysis based on field research. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with key stakeholders, including sbpac leaders, civil servants, scholars, civil society representatives, and local community leaders. Secondary data sources include government publications, sbpac reports, and academic literature.
