Buddhist Methods of Political Communication in the 21st Century

Abstract

            The principle of political communication consists of transferring information and political news or exchanging news and information about politics directly between members in the political system, both in terms of individuals and a group of people with the government. This could be the communication between political institutions such as parliament, government representatives, political parties, interest groups, and the public, communication between politicians and people, the politicians, and political institutions to other parts of the political system. Therefore, the principle of the political communication in crisis is necessary to present the information that makes the parties or those who have a stake in trust by using benevolent methods that will make those involved "bridges" or have a way to find solutions for conflicts between parties. The communication must not be based on the benefits that they should be able to do without ignoring the possibilities of society in any way. For the reasons that aimed at the personal gain in this manner may lead to the creation of a division of people in societies that receive ethics in communication from the teachings of the Lord Buddha that the communication in the communication process is a deep principle that creates effective communication. The doctrine of Buddha's communication also covers the ethics and ethics of communication. Thai society has adopted the ethical principles of communication in this Buddhist way to be used in political communication. This is a communication principle that helps people to be happy, have a good relationship with each other, and is also a communication principle that helps society at all levels, at the individual level, family level, community, nation, or even at the international level, that all global societies maintain peace without prejudice, division, into today's Thai society.
