interviews, focus group discussions, 48 key informants used in the study, triangulation of data collection methods, content analysis, and description.

The research results found that:

Huai Kha Khaeng buffer zone has undergone significant changes in three periods: 1. Initial period (1989-2003): The buffer zone was designated as a buffer zone between the forest and the community, playing a role in maintaining the balance between

natural resource conservation and community livelihoods by acting as an important

connecting area. 2. Symbolic changes (before 2003): The buffer zone began to be

redefined symbolically by installing barbed wire fences along the entire length. Although villagers were allowed to use the area, they had to do so secretly by crawling through the barbed wire fences, which was considered an unofficial acceptance by the state. Until 2014, the state announced a policy to reclaim the forest. and proceeded to integrate the buffer zone into wildlife sanctuaries and wildlife sanctuaries. 3. Loss of role (after 2014) The buffer zone lost its original meaning, leaving only wildlife sanctuaries and wildlife sanctuaries that expanded into the reserved forest area that used to be a buffer zone. As a result, the buffer zone can no longer play the role of an area connecting communities and forests. These changes reflect the loss of the role of the Huai Kha Khaeng buffer zone from an area that used to connect communities and conservation to an area controlled by the state and no longer having practical meaning.

Buddhist Principles and Reconciliation

Pachabodee Yeamsoonthorn — 2025-03-29

Living in society requires acknowledging that conflicts frequently arise. Reducing conflicts or fostering reconciliation is a universal aspiration for achieving a peaceful society. Reconciliation emphasizes practices that promote harmony, unity, and solidarity. It is also a process for preventing and resolving conflicts through peaceful means,
breaking the cycle of violence, and restoring a “moral society.”
However, in practice, it can be challenging to reconcile conflicting ideas or achieve true reconciliation. Thus, the reconciliation process aims to reduce hatred and division while building trust to restore relationships among groups that were once in severe conflict. This involves taking responsibility for past actions, acknowledging the truth, showing compassion and forgiveness, and envisioning a shared future for society. Reconciliation, therefore, becomes a key goal in integrating Buddhist principles, fostering mutual support among those involved, and enabling peaceful coexistence.
