  • Interests and Politics in Post-Communist East Europe
    Shaping a New Politics in Poland: Interests and Politics in Post-Communist East Europe by David Ost Dept of Political Science, Hobart and William Smith Colleges and Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies, Harvard University Program on Central and Eastern Europe Working Paper Series #8 TIris is a revised version of paper presented at conference on "Dilemmas of Transition from State Socialism in East Central Europe," Center for European Studies, Harvard University, March 15-17, 1991. Abstract Hopes that East Europe would see a swift transition to liberal market democracy are frustrated by the weakness of civil society in the post-communist period, which is a legacy of the past. Whereas market systems divide interest groups into what Oaus Offe calls "class organizations" (market-based interests) and "policy-takers" (groups dependent on state transactions), communist systems create state-dependent groups alone. By nationalizing all property and making citizens employees of the state, state socialism provides a weak foundation for diverse interest representation, and thus for a liberal polity. Post-communist social groups do not have a clear sense of where their interests lie. Solidarity in Poland, for example, is wracked by contradictory commitments to protect workers and to help introduce a market economy. Contemporary East European politics revolves around three alternative programs; neo-liberalism, populism, and social democratic corporatism. As the first option is undermined because it seems to benefit the old elite, a politically illiberal populism is likely to become the dominant tendency. Walesa's success in Poland is due to his ability to combine all three alternatives.

  • Power, Privilege and Ideology in Communism's Negotiated Collapse
    Power, Privilege and Ideology in Communism’s Negotiated Collapse Michael D. Kennedy “Who gets what and why?” The American sociologist Gerhard Lenski framed this most succinct question in the study of social stratification.1 He argued that, over the course of history, there have been two basic answers. The conservative thesis, defending the status quo, explains “the existing distribution of rewards as just, equitable, and frequently also inevitable.” The radical antithesis is critical, “denouncing the distributive system as basically unjust and unnecessary”.2 Lenski himself offers a synthesis of these two viewpoints in the explanation of inequality in human societies over the course of their existence. The Polish Round Table negotiations of 1989 suggest a different synthesis. While only a few months in a single country, these talks nevertheless altered the course of human history by providing a model for the radical, but peaceful, negotiation of fundamental differences in the collapse of communism. The making of communism’s negotiated collapse depended on communists and liberals coming together to articulate, along with leaders of the Catholic Church, a common need to compromise and develop a more open and pluralist, if more unequal, Poland. It also depended, however, on the loss of power across the board. In this essay, I shall draw on various reflections on the Polish Round Table talks of 1989, most especially a conference my colleagues and I organized at the University of Michigan on April 7-10, 1999 for some of the principal participants in these talks that ended communism.3 I shall begin, however, with additional reflections on the 1 Gerhard Lenski, Power and Privilege: A Theory of Social Stratification (Chapel Hill: The University of North Carolina Press, 1984 [1966]), 2.

  • POLISH INDEPENDENT PUBLISHING, 1976-1989 a Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate Scho
    MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD: POLISH INDEPENDENT PUBLISHING, 1976-1989 A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History. By Siobhan K. Doucette, M.A. Washington, DC April 11, 2013 Copyright 2013 by Siobhan K. Doucette All Rights Reserved ii MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD: POLISH INDEPENDENT PUBLISHING, 1976-1989 Siobhan K. Doucette, M.A. Thesis Advisor: Andrzej S. Kamiński, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This dissertation analyzes the rapid growth of Polish independent publishing between 1976 and 1989, examining the ways in which publications were produced as well as their content. Widespread, long-lasting independent publishing efforts were first produced by individuals connected to the democratic opposition; particularly those associated with KOR and ROPCiO. Independent publishing expanded dramatically during the Solidarity-era when most publications were linked to Solidarity, Rural Solidarity or NZS. By the mid-1980s, independent publishing obtained new levels of pluralism and diversity as publications were produced through a bevy of independent social milieus across every segment of society. Between 1976 and 1989, thousands of independent titles were produced in Poland. Rather than employing samizdat printing techniques, independent publishers relied on printing machines which allowed for independent publication print-runs in the thousands and even tens of thousands, placing Polish independent publishing on an incomparably greater scale than in any other country in the Communist bloc. By breaking through social atomization and linking up individuals and milieus across class, geographic and political divides, independent publications became the backbone of the opposition; distribution networks provided the organizational structure for the Polish underground.

KENNEDY CENTER FOR JUSTICE AND HUMAN RIGHTS 2 NOWHERE TO TURN: THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE FAILURE TO MONITOR HUMAN RIGHT VIOLATIONS IN WESTERN SAHARA AND TINDOUF REFUGEE CAMPS I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS The Sahrawi are the indigenous people of Western Sahara, who descended from Berber and Arab tribes.1 The following is a report on the human rights situation facing the Sahrawi people who reside in the disputed territory of Western Sahara under Moroccan control and in the Sahrawi refugee camps near Tindouf, Algeria. Much of the information contained in this report is based on information gained from interviews and meetings during a visit to the region of an international delegation led by the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights (RFK Center). For nearly 40 years, both the Kingdom of Morocco and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Saguía el Hamra and Río de Oro (POLISARIO Front) have claimed sovereignty over Western Sahara, a former Spanish colony. After years of armed conflict, in 1991 the United Nations (UN) established the Mission for the Referendum in Western Sahara (MINURSO), a peacekeeping mission to oversee the cease-fire between the Kingdom of Morocco and the POLISARIO Front and to organize and ensure a referendum on self-determination. Today, 22 years after the establishment of MINURSO, the referendum has yet to take place.

  • The Role of Corporate Governance Codes in Enhancing Accountability for Effective Disclosure in Indonesia
    THE ROLE OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE CODES IN ENHANCING ACCOUNTABILITY FOR EFFECTIVE DISCLOSURE IN INDONESIA By Jeannie Connie Rotinsulu Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy College of Law and Justice Victoria University Melbourne Australia JULY 2016 Abstract Indonesia’s performance in implementing corporate governance based on formal law has been poor because of weaknesses in its formal legal system. This thesis examines possible alternative approaches to the regulation of disclosure to achieve a better standard of corporate governance including the Indonesian Good Corporate Governance Code. The study considers the regulatory space corporate governance codes can occupy as an alternative regulatory strategy in the Indonesian context. Specifically, it evaluates the ways in which they can improve accountability for disclosure and corporate governance and also strengthen formal law and regulation. Different sources of data from the literature and media data bases and the interviews are used to be triangulated. It first explores the ideas and models in the literatures reviewed on disclosure, voluntary self-regulatory codes, alternative regulatory theories, the relationship between formal and informal law concepts, and comparative law on legal transplants. It examines how Indonesia’s corporate governance codes accommodate these ideas, and in which areas their use may play a more significant role in strengthening formal law and regulation so that regulation becomes more effective, responsive, flexible, legitimate and transparent. It identifies relevant issues in political, social and business cultures which produced problems for formal law and regulation and the way in which the code as a form of alternative regulation may remedy such problems.
