| dc.description | This research explores ethnogenesis and ethnic change amongst Thai-speaking Muslims in Songkhla province by both interacting with a range of historical, anthropological and theoretical material, and conducting in-depth interviews with Muslim leaders in communities that I recently worked with. Details about the changing relationship between Singgora/Songkhla and Ayutthaya (later Bangkok), Ligor/Nakhon Si Thammarat, and Patani will be provided by engaging with the most authoritative historiographies, and accounts produced by European travellers to the Thai/Malay Peninsula during the 19th Century. Another element of my literature review will an analysis of ethnonym selection among Muslims in South Thailand in the ethnographic literature. In light of my research objectives containing specifically theoretical interests, I will offer a synthesis of relatively recent approaches to ethnic boundaries, ethnonym selection, (state led) ethnogenesis, and ethnic change, along with proposal about how these permit a better picture of the complex phenomenon of ethnic change amongst Muslims in Songkhla Province. These will permit the following questions to answered. What was the historical importance of the ethnonym “Thai Muslim” having been imposed on Muslims, in the 1930s? What is the analytical purchase of the concept of (state-led) ethnogenesis? What is the relationship between grassroots language change (from Malay to Thai) to ethnic change? Methodologically, my interaction with the relevant secondary literature outlined above, will be collecting my own set of primary data. I propose conducting semi-structured interviews with key informants in the districts of Chana (where some Muslims still speak Malay), where I have conducted (informal) participant observation. These will provide details about both the range of reasons for “Thai Muslim” having become the preferred ethnonym of the majority of Muslims in Songkhla, yet in some contexts Muslims in Songkhla continue to refer to themselves as Melayu.,Certification of Masters/Doctoral Thesis" is not available | |
