Thailand has a unique social structure because it is a country of the global South but has never come under colonial rule while emulating Western modernization. The result is a double structure, one part consisting of a precapitalist structure and the other comprising a hierarchy of social classes. On this episode, Dr. Boike Rehbein sits down with Eric Jones, Kanjana Thepboriruk, and John Hartmann to discuss the peculiarities of Thailand's social structure and the resulting inequality.
