| Abstract: | 本論文探討泰國社會趨勢與官僚體系在推進酷兒平權過程中的矛盾。儘管政治部門愈加積極回應，特別是在2024年通過《平等婚姻法》（Equal Marriage Act）後，官僚部門依然保守、僵化，且調整速度緩慢。研究的核心問題在於，形式上的法律改革與實際落實權利所需的官僚執行之間，存在明顯落差。
本研究採用質性研究方法，包括文件分析與半結構式訪談，分析制度如何回應社會與政治環境的演變。研究發現，官僚的調整大多是被動的，主要因應法律命令，而非出於對多元性的真誠承諾。這種「被迫的適應」往往僅帶來表面的改變，缺乏深層次的制度轉型。
透過歷史制度論，本研究揭示了從泰國全國維持和平秩序委員會: NCPO 時期延續下來的制度遺緒如何持續影響官僚文化。透過 Judith Butler 的性別展演理論，本研究亦說明了官僚實踐如何仍在強化二元性別規範，使酷兒個體必須順應體制才能獲得認同。
本研究針對三個層面提出改革建議：結構性改革、能力建構，以及規範轉變。若未能理解官僚體系的參與與回應，法律上的進展將僅止於象徵意義。要在泰國實現真正的酷兒平權，需從國家機構內部的文化與態度出發，進行根本轉變。
This dissertation examines the contradictions between Thailand’s social trends and bureaucratic sectors in advancing queer equality. While the political sector has become more responsive, particularly through the legalization of the Marriage Equality Act in 2024, the bureaucratic sector remains conservative, rigid, and slow to adjust. The key puzzle lies in the gap between formal legal reforms and the bureaucratic implementation necessary to ensure those rights are realized in practice. Using qualitative methods, including document analysis and semi-structured interviews, the study analyzes how institutions have responded to the evolving socio-political landscape. The findings show that bureaucratic adaptations are mostly reactive, driven by legal mandates rather than genuine institutional commitment to diversity. This “forced adaptation” often results in superficial transformations without deeper structural transformations.
Through Historical Institutionalism, the study reveals how legacies from the NCPO era continue to shape bureaucratic culture. Butler’s Gender Performativity Theory helps explain how bureaucratic practices still reinforce binary gender norms, requiring queer individuals to conform to gain recognition. This study offers recommendations in three domains: structural reform, capacity-building, and normative change. Without understanding bureaucratic engagement, legal progress will remain symbolic. Achieving queer equality in Thailand requires transforming from the culture and attitudes within the state apparatus. |
