This qualitative study of the relationships between one primate
city, Bangkok, and its hinterland, the Thai nation, breaks new
ground in general sociological theory, redirects the study of
city-hinterland relationships, and presents an interpretation of
Thai political history that departs significantly from conventional
analyses. Professor London finds a direct correlation between the
nature of intergroup relationships and the type of parasitism or
internal colonialism evident in center-periphery relationships. He
concludes that Bangkok, through the operations of its
decision-making elite, has historically been parasitic on the Thai
nation and that primate city parasitism is essentially a political
phenomenon, more complex than has been previously suggested.
