  Vol. 1 No. พิเศษ (2024)

  The Journal of Political Science and Public Administration, Ubon Ratchathani University, is the inaugural academic journal of the Faculty of Political Science. It was established with the support of the university's administration and the faculty's leadership to address the complexities of social, political, and economic changes. The journal aims to disseminate research and academic articles, promote knowledge exchange, and advance scholarship in political science, public administration, and related fields.

  This first issue features a collection of academic articles addressing contemporary and multifaceted issues. These include explorations of philosophical foundations, such as the study of positivism in political science, and critiques of political and economic ideologies, such as Werner Bonefeld’s analysis of Ordoliberalism and Authoritarian Liberalism. Additionally, it includes articles connected to the dynamics of Thai politics, such as an analysis of the decline of party loyalty toward the Democrat Party in Southern Thailand. The journal also delves into social and cultural dimensions, presenting articles on the movement for the rights of individuals with diverse sexual orientations in Thailand and an analysis of Mary Wollstonecraft's intellectual legacy, reflecting the role of education in the fight for gender equality in contemporary contexts.

  As the editorial team, we are confident that this journal will contribute significantly to the development of academic knowledge and provide a platform for knowledge exchange that drives the study and research of political science and public administration at local, national, and international levels.

  On behalf of the editorial team, I would like to express my gratitude to all contributing authors and everyone involved in producing this journal. I sincerely hope that the Journal of Political Science and Public Administration, Ubon Ratchathani University will serve as a valuable resource and an inspiration for those interested in these disciplines.
