บทคัดย่อ

This research aims at studying Field Marshal P. Pibulsonggram’s kitchen gardening campaign from 1938 to 1944, starting from a study of the factors which resulted in the kitchen gardening campaign, the concepts, policies as well as the government’s performance to achieve its goal, and how the performance can serve as a lesson and guideline for a similar campaign in modern Thai society. The study reveals that the kitchen gardening campaign complied with the nation-building policy, which was Field Marshal P. Pibulsonggram’s regime’s principle policy of administration. When Thailand entered the Second World War and suffered severe flooding, causing shortages of consumer goods, the government promoted kitchen gardening in order to resolve the problem of shortages through campaigns and state mechanisms to achieve its goal. The kitchen gardening campaign during Field Marshal P. Pibulsonggram’s regime can be used as a lesson and guideline for the present government in terms of campaigning through advertising, encouraging and rewarding.
