| When the law-giving is renewed, instead of the finger of God writing on the tablets, Moses does the writing, and the voice of God--never reified in stone--becomes the foundation of the oral Law, with authority equal to the written one. But when this idea is perpetuated for domestic consumption, reinforced and reified by political as well as academic discourses, the belief in one's uniqueness, in this case Thainess, and its inviolability, has become a powerful and productive, albeit dangerous, ideology in politics and social practices, even in the country's relations to its neighbours. At its worst, it promoted a narrow view of family and even reified notions of Black pathology and social problems as cultural in the main. |
