20世纪中叶美国对泰国的政治介入

The American intervention with the Thai politics in the middle of the twentieth century

20世纪中叶,出于冷战格局的需要以及对泰国军人独裁统治的不安,美国积极介入泰国政治生活,极力帮助泰国军人集团组建政党筹备大选,对其进行军事保护和经济援助.与此同时,泰国奉行一边倒的亲美政策,成为美国在东南亚地区的桥头堡和马前卒.至此,泰国军人集团的执政地位得以合法化,美国在该地区的影响力进一步扩大,亚洲紧张局势持续升级.

The middle of the twentieth century sees an intervention of United States with the Thai politics, due to the cold war and American unease with Thai military dictatorship. The US helps Thai military to form a political party for national election, military protection and economic aid. In return Thailand pursues one--sided pro-US policy as a castle in southeast Asia. So both sides maintain legitimacy, only to stir up the escalated tension in Asia.
