Since the publication of my article "Network monarchy and crises of legitimacy in Thailand" (Pacific Review, 2005), network monarchy has become an influential concept in the analysis of Thailand's politics. Though widely adopted, the argument has also spawned rival or complementary coinings, ranging from "autonomous political networks" (Joseph Harris) to "working towards the monarchy" (Serhat Uenaldi), and the "deep state" (Eugenie Mérieau), as well as the "parallel state" and the "monarchized military" (Paul Chambers and Napisa Waitoolkiat ). This article revisits the argument, elaborates on the meanings of the original term, and makes a case for network monarchy's continuing salience in the Tenth Reign.

作为欣快对联的网络君主制

自从我的文章“网络君主制和泰国的合法性危机”（太平洋评论，2005）发表以来，网络君主制已成为分析泰国政治的一个有影响力的概念。尽管被广泛采用，但这一论点也催生了竞争或互补的创造，从“自治政治网络”（约瑟夫哈里斯）到“朝着君主制努力”（Serhat Uenaldi），以及“深层国家”（欧仁妮梅里奥），以及作为“平行国家”和“君主化军队”（Paul Chambers 和 Napisa Waitoolkiat）。本文重新审视了这一论点，阐述了原始术语的含义，并为网络君主制在第十王朝的持续突出提供了一个案例。
