  • Libertarianism, Feminism, and Nonviolent Action: a Synthesis
    LIBERTARIAN PAPERS VOL. 4, NO. 2 (2012) LIBERTARIANISM, FEMINISM, AND NONVIOLENT ACTION: A SYNTHESIS GRANT BABCOCK* I. Introduction MURRAY ROTHBARD’S CONTRIBUTION to libertarian ethics was to outline a theory prohibiting aggressive violence (1978, p. 27-30). The influence of Rothbard’s ethics,1 combined with a decades-long political alliance with conservatives based on anticommunism, has produced a debate within libertarian circles about whether libertarians qua libertarians must take positions against certain forms of repression that do not involve aggressive violence. The non-aggression principle is as good a libertarian litmus test as has been suggested. Often, the voices who levy allegations of non-aggressive (or at least not exclusively aggressive) oppression come from the political left, and have un-libertarian (read: aggressive) solutions in mind, even if they do not conceive of those solutions as violent. Despite these considerations, I do believe that libertarians qua libertarians are obligated to say something about the kind of non-aggressive oppression that these voices from the left have raised regarding issues including, but not limited to, race, class, gender, and sexual orientation. Making the case that libertarians have these obligations irrespective of their * Grant Babcock ([email protected]) is an independent scholar.

  • Chapter One: Postwar Resentment and the Invention of Middle America 10
    MIAMI UNIVERSITY The Graduate School Certificate for Approving the Dissertation We hereby approve the Dissertation of Jeffrey Christopher Bickerstaff Doctor of Philosophy ________________________________________ Timothy Melley, Director ________________________________________ C. Barry Chabot, Reader ________________________________________ Whitney Womack Smith, Reader ________________________________________ Marguerite S. Shaffer, Graduate School Representative ABSTRACT TALES FROM THE SILENT MAJORITY: CONSERVATIVE POPULISM AND THE INVENTION OF MIDDLE AMERICA by Jeffrey Christopher Bickerstaff In this dissertation I show how the conservative movement lured the white working class out of the Democratic New Deal Coalition and into the Republican Majority. I argue that this political transformation was accomplished in part by what I call the "invention" of Middle America. Using such cultural representations as mainstream print media, literature, and film, conservatives successfully exploited what came to be known as the Social Issue and constructed "Liberalism" as effeminate, impractical, and elitist. Chapter One charts the rise of conservative populism and Middle America against the backdrop of 1960s social upheaval. I stress the importance of backlash and resentment to Richard Nixon's ascendancy to the Presidency, describe strategies employed by the conservative movement to win majority status for the GOP, and explore the conflict between this goal and the will to ideological purity. In Chapter Two I read Rabbit Redux as John Updike's attempt to model the racial education of a conservative Middle American, Harry "Rabbit" Angstrom, in "teach-in" scenes that reflect the conflict between the social conservative and Eastern Liberal within the author's psyche. I conclude that this conflict undermines the project and, despite laudable intentions, Updike perpetuates caricatures of the Left and hastens Middle America's rejection of Liberalism.

  • Las Subversivas -Revolucionarias En Los Tiempos Del Movimiento Obrero Clásico
    Las subversivas Revolucionarias en los tiempos del movimiento obrero clásico por Pepe Gutiérrez-Álvarez lL Biblioteca Virtual OMEGALFA STE libro fue producto de una recopilación de diversos trabajos aparecidos en revistas como Historia 16, Historia E y Vida y Tiempo de Historia, y apareció en la editorial Hacer, Barcelona, 1986, en la que el autor había publicado otras cosas como el primer volumen del Diccionario bibliográfico del socialismo, y había contribuido a la edición de diversos clásicos socialistas. Su título escogido era Mujeres contra la historia, que to- maba una frase de Nietszche, pero fue retocado como Mujeres socialistas, como producto de la adhesión organizativa del editor, Josep Ricou, antiguo militante de Acción Comunista, grupo que estaba en el origen de la propia editorial. Este cambio fue acom- pañado de la idea de colocar un prólogo, en un principio de Mª Aurelia Capmany, pero como no pudo ser de ésta, Ricou hecho mano a una diputada del PSC-PSOE, Rosa Barenys, pero después de una primera lectura me negué a aceptarlo, y finalmente apare- ció con una nota mía que culminaba con una dedicatoria a Eli- zanda Illamola, una amiga y militante de la LCR que se había sui- cidado poco antes. Sin embargo, ni tan siquiera esta dedicatoria fue suficiente para que el sector femenino de esta organización prestara atención a un libro “escrito por un tío”. Para sorpresa de Antonia Rodrigo y de un servidor, en el día de la presentación de la edición en Leviatán, solamente estaba presente Montserrat Cervera. El libro llevó el camino errático propio de una editorial militante sin militancia.

Ann Arbor: University of Michigan Press. 2001. Pp. xii, 320. $44.50. Professor Ju lie Novkov's Constituting Workers, Protecting Women1 examines the so-called Lochner era of American constitutional jurisprudence through the lens of the struggle over the constitutionality of "protective" labor legislation, su ch as maximum hours and minimum wage laws. Many of these laws applied only to women, and Novkov argues that the debate over the constitutionality of protective laws for women - laws that some women's rights advo­ cates saw as discriminatory legislation against women - ultimately had important implications for the constitutionality of protective labor legislation more generally.
