“…Siam's control over the Pattani region came into force after the Malay northern region was surrendered by the British colonial government to the Siamese kingdom in 1909.

“…Chularajmontri (head of Thailand's Muslim Community) who is appointed by royal decree is responsible for advising the government on Islamic matters including, education but, since the reintroduction of this office in 1945, no Malay-Muslim has been appointed for the role and the local Malay Muslims do not see their aspirations being represented by this office (Liow 2009;Yusuf 1998). The Islamic Centre of Thailand functions under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Interior and Ministry of Education and the provision of Chularajmontri is aimed at control rather than recognition or autonomy of Muslim affairs (Joll 2010;Yusuf 1998).…”

Education is increasingly becoming central to debates about how to promote peace in conflict-affected societies. Equitable access to quality learning, promotion of social justice through educational reforms and conflict-sensitive curricular and pedagogical approaches are viewed as peace supporting educational interventions. Drawing upon the existing body of literature in the area of education, conflict and peace in Southern Thailand and reflecting on Nancy Fraser's theory of social justice and applying the 4Rs framework, this paper provides a critical analysis of inequalities, cultural repression and epistemic domination through education. The paper argues that the 4Rs framework usefully exposes underlying structural tensions in education but does little to show avenues for rupturing unequal power relations and hegemonies that reproduce systems of domination and social exclusion at the macro level. The real hope, however, lies in the potential use of the 4Rs as a tool for grassroots political socialisation.

“…The majority of this research has concluded that the conflict is deeply rooted in the history of the region involving the Thai state and the local Malay Muslim and Malay Patani populations, respectively. Essentially, it can best be described as an ethno-political legitimacy conflict (McCargo 2009;Abuza 2009;Satha-Anand 2009;Joll 2010;Barter 2011;Jitpiromsri and Engvall 2013;Jory 2013). 4 This research has also emphasized that this particular conflict-as in many similar cases-has developed a complex dynamism of its own, including the self-reproducing nature of high levels of violence as well as the interference of non-politically driven violence.…”
