In 1962, the International Court of Justice decided that the Preah Vihear sanctuary exists in Cambodian domain. The status of the 4.6 kmⲠof land encompassing the sanctuary, in any case, stayed misty. At the point when UNESCO pronounced the Preah Vihear sanctuary a Cambodian World Heritage Site in July 2008, the circumstance was exacerbated. A few firefights between October 2008 and April/May 2011 asserted no less than 34 lives. The fringe question turned into a rollercoaster ride en route: Talks amongst Thailand and Cambodia were consistently hindered by trades of flame, just to be continued somewhat later. This kept a determination of the contention. The article investigates how Thailand’s and Cambodia’s struggle conduct can be clarified from a first-picture point of view. In doing as such, revealing the thought processes of both countries’ leaders is vital to understanding Bangkok’s and Phnom Penh’s activities in the fringe territory. The paper contends that in low-power outskirt clashes, inspirations are not the same as those fundamental heads of government’s conduct in high-force fringe clashes. While this confuses a concurrence on the Preah Vihear question, it likewise implies that heightening to a show outskirt war is extremely unlikely.Manuscript gotten 5 August 2011; acknowledged 18 December 2011
