泰国《和平社会促进法》于本周一正式生效，旨在促进过去二十年政治纷争后的和解1。该法律涵盖2005年1月1日至2025年7月15日期间的政治相关犯罪，预计可为约6000人提供赦免1。这项立法经过7月份的最终投票，并于周日发表在《皇家公报》上1。由总理领导的委员会将负责审核符合条件的人选1。
然而，该赦免法明确排除了不敬罪、腐败和导致死亡或重伤的犯罪1。根据泰国律师人权组织的统计，自2020年初以来超过290人被控违反不敬罪（第112条），其中多数是学生活动人士，该罪名最高可判监禁15年1。截至7月，至少54人因政治案件被监禁，但仅有约10人预期受益于新赦免法1。这一限制性规定引发批评，认为该法无法真正解决泰国的政治分裂1。
Thailand's political amnesty law, formally known as the Peaceful Society Promotion Act, took effect on Monday, aimed at fostering reconciliation following two decades of political turmoil 1. The legislation is expected to cover approximately 6,000 individuals, with a committee led by the prime minister tasked with reviewing eligible candidates 1.
However, the law explicitly excludes lese majeste charges—offenses involving defamation of the monarchy—along with corruption cases and crimes resulting in death or serious injury 1. The lese majeste statute, codified as Article 112, carries a maximum prison sentence of 15 years 1. This exclusion has drawn criticism from observers who argue the measure cannot genuinely address Thailand's political divisions. According to Thai human rights lawyers, more than 290 people have been charged with violating Article 112 since early 2020, with the majority being student activists 1.
The amnesty covers political-related crimes committed between January 1, 2005, and July 15, 2025 1. Despite the law's scope, the practical impact appears limited: as of July, at least 54 people remained imprisoned for political offenses, with only approximately 10 expected to benefit from the new amnesty 1.
