Abstract: | 2020–2021 年的泰國青年運動成為泰國當代政治史上的重要轉折點,大規模抗議活動從最初要求憲法改革和政府問責,逐漸發展為前所未有的君主制改革呼聲,直接挑戰了圍繞《刑法》第112條(冒犯君主罪)所形成的社會禁忌。該運動在社交媒體與去中心化網絡的推動下,放大了替代性敘事,動員了多元社會群體,並重塑了公共話語。本研究運用 Benford 與 Snow 的框架理論,探討行動者如何透過策略性框架挑戰主導的皇室敘事並促進公共參與。採用混合研究方法,本研究結合社交媒體分析、訪談與內容分析,結果顯示,儘管該運動未能實現直接的政治或法律改革,但成功拓展了公共辯論的邊界,削弱了圍繞君主制的長期沉默,並激發了新一代對言論自由的開放態度。最終,研究指出該運動已為泰國社會在權力、異議與民主價值的協商中帶來長遠的變革契機。 The 2020–2021 Thai Youth-led Movement marked a significant turning point in Thailand’s modern political history, as mass protests evolved from demands for constitutional reform to unprecedented calls for monarchy reform, directly challenging the taboo surrounding Section 112 of the Criminal Code. Driven by social media and decentralized networks, the Movement amplified alternative narratives, mobilized diverse social groups, and reshaped public discourse. This study applies Benford and Snow’s framing theory to examine how activists strategically framed their messages to challenge dominant royalist narratives and foster public engagement. Using a mixed-methods approach, combining social media analysis with interviews and content analysis, the research demonstrates that although the movement did not achieve immediate political or legal reforms, it successfully broadened the scope of public debate, eroded traditional silences around the monarchy, and inspired a generational shift toward greater openness in political dialogue. Ultimately, the findings suggest that the Movement has set the stage for long-term transformations in how Thai society negotiates power, dissent, and democratic values. |
