Abstract |
This paper presents the results of a qualitative research on the use of cultural capital to
create the identity of silk produced by the weaving group in northeast Thailand (Isan). Data was
collected from ten key informants who were committee members of the silk weaving groups, and
eight officials from government agencies, academics and eight consumers at Ton Nam Village
(Pseudonym) in the Northeast. The village was an area where the phenomenon of cultural capital
was used in weaving the silk production to create each group’s identity. The created identity was
expected to gain acceptance from consumers and to increase sales. Data were collected from
November 2020 to July 2021. Data were analyzed and presented in a descriptive manner. The
results showed how cultural capital was used by the silk weaving groups in three ways: 1) embodies
state), 2) the objectified state, and 3) the institutionalization state in presenting a group that
preserves and carries on local wisdom to the world for the group to gain confidence and accepted
by consumers. |
