Abstract

The murder of democracy is like the murder of the entire democratic political system by using the wrong power to seize power or overthrow the government. That's a revolution, a rebellion, or a coup. In Thailand, it is found that over the 80 years after the change of government, there have been 13 coups to overthrow the government and 11 rebellions and a total of 20 constitutions have been promulgated. However, the cause of the murder of democracy came from the need to return to the old regime (absolute monarchy) in the beginning. Prime Minister's seizure of power domestic conflict dictatorship government people against the government Including the government's ineffectiveness in managing the country, causing the need to seize power because of the unsuccessful murder of democracy (treason) due to the power held by the state The military forces and weapons used to decisively suppress the rebels led to the defeat of the rebels. On the other hand, the murder of democracy that can successfully seize power is caused by the military's superior power, including armed forces, suppression to seize power. Many of the successful coups were driven by the support of the people who were opposing and ousting the government at the time and sometimes it was caused by the government's own retreat to avoid bloodshed, and on three occasions there were coups to seize power and strengthen its own power. This democratic murder as a result, the democratic regime is still lagging and not developing. Which affects political stability economy and society including people in the country. Finally, if the country's executives strictly adhere to the rule of law have a good relationship with the military manage the country with transparency and people have greater access to democracy It will be able to reduce future democratic murders.
