SUMMARY:Revisiting and Advancing Thailand's Foreign Policy towards the Indo-Pacific Strategy
LOCATION:กรุงเทพมหานคร
DESCRIPTION:Foreign policy formulation has traditionally centred on the perspectives of policymakers operating at the national level. However, shifts in the global economic, political, and security order — particularly the intensifying strategic competition among great powers in Southeast Asia — have revealed multi-dimensional and multi-level impacts on the region. From the vantage point of the central government, foreign policy is developed based on an understanding of the goals and interests of these great powers. Consequently, there is a tendency to seek policy responses that uphold national interests and Thailand’s diplomatic stature. These policy approaches are often grounded in International Relations (IR) theories that prioritise state-centrism, where the state is treated as the principal unit of analysis. The theoretical inquiries within these frameworks largely revolve around how states should behave in the international system. However, when observed from a regional or local perspective, the consequences of great power rivalry manifest in more tangible and immediate ways in the daily lives of people in affected areas.
