The departure of these scholar officials, first from the eastern provinces in the initial phase of the French advance which ended in 1862 and then from the western provinces after these were occupied in 1867, forced the French colonial administration to adopt a policy of direct rule. There has been some confusion over the nature of this rule, not least because various French officials in the eighteen sixties were able to convince themselves that the use of Vietnamese names for the positions filled by French administrators somehow represented a continuation of the Vietnamese pattern of administration. In particular the impression has remained that Vietnamese officials continued to play an important part in the administration of justice in Cochinchina until the advent of civil government for the colony in 1879.","PeriodicalId":376418,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Southeast Asian History","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1969-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133199562","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On the contrary, it is designed to show how little we yet know about it. It is not even mentioned in most English-language histories of Malaya. There is a certain amount about it in the Colonial Office files, but it will be an important part of my argument that these do not reveal what we most want to learn. My main intention is to suggest that a fuller study of it would make as good a starting-point as any for a more general review of the role played by armed Malay resistance in the history of the British period in Malaya. I shall further suggest certain lines which thinking on this subject might follow, but only very tentatively. If this article stimulates such new thinking along any lines at all, it will have achieved its purpose.","PeriodicalId":376418,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Southeast Asian History","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1968-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128086589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This situation had profound effects on the course of modern Thai history; and its study enlightens our understanding of Thailand's foreign relations and of the course of reform and modernization in a period when the successful conduct of these was crucially vital to the survival of the kingdom. The origins and growth of one-family dominance in nineteenth century Thai politics are not readily susceptible to study. Family names are essentially a twentieth century innovation, and nineteenth century documents rarely reveal even the personal names of govern ment officials who were known only by their titles. However, it is obvious both from the comments of such foreign observers as Captain Henry Burney and Sir John Bowring, and from the expressed con cerns of Thai kings from Rama III to Chulalongkorn, that family relationships among the royalty and nobility were of considerable importance political. The availability of three general types of sources makes possible a preliminary analysis of nineteenth century Thai politics and the family relationships which undergirded them. First, there are a number of genealogical compilations, most of which were compiled early in the current century. Important among these are a collection of genealogies of major noble families begun by Phraya Rattanakun (Camrat Rattanakun) in 1920/ the official genealogy of the royal family,2 and the genealogies of the families of","PeriodicalId":376418,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Southeast Asian History","volume":"12 5","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1968-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132363872","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
