在泰国北方的山区，对“山地部落”人民及其身体的约束和限制往往与传说中的过去相反，在过去，人们可以自由地跨越边界，在山区避难代表着免受压迫的国家权力的自由，高地人可以从山上下来并融入社会。本文探讨了如何高原科目已被转换为泰国国家的出现强加了具体和规范的边界划定泰国，泰国人民。在历史叙述的基础上，过去的自由与现在的密切统治相平衡，我呈现了泰国民族主体的更加复杂和矛盾的图景。我讨论的公民运动，积极分子一直在争取公民身份的高地人通过一个战略，寻求一个地方的民族国家和归属霸权话语的高地人。公民权运动确立了一个新的“泰山部落”主体地位，形成了与其构成相对立的外部“非泰比尔部落”。随着高地人找到新的方式来适应民族国家的霸权，随着泰国人及其“他者”被重新定义，更固定和更移动的主体地位都开放了。
In the mountains of northern Thailand the constraints and restrictions placed upon 'hill tribe' people and their bodies are often counter-posed to a legendary past where people could move freely across borders, where refuge in the mountains represented freedom from oppressive state powers, and where highlanders could come down from the mountains and integrate. This paper explores how highland subjects have been transformed as the emergence of the Thai state has imposed concrete and regulated boundaries demarcating Thailand, and a Thai people. Building on historical narratives in which the freedoms of the past are counterpoised with the closely governed present, I present a more complex and contradictory picture of the national subjects in Thailand. I discuss the citizenship movement, in which activists have been fighting for citizenship status for highlanders through a strategy that seeks a place for highland people within hegemonic discourses of the nation-state and belonging. The citizenship movement establishes a new 'Thai hill tribe' subject Position, formed in opposition to its constitutive outside-the 'non-Thai bill tribe'. And as highlanders find new ways to fit with the hegemony of the nation-state, both more fixed and more mobile subject positions open up as Thai-ness and its 'others' are redefined.
