AB Some Buddhist millenarian movements in Thailand have been associated with peasant rebellions against central Thai authority. However, the Hupphaasawan movement, formed by the spirit medium Suchaat Kosonkittiwong in the 1970s, differs in that it has attracted followers from among the most senior and powerful sections of the Thai political establishment. The article traces the background and development of this movement. (DÜI-Sen)
