  • AN ANALYSIS of FLAG CHANGES in LATIN AMERICA Ralph Kelly
    Comunicaciones del Congreso Internacional de Vexilología XXI Vexilobaires 2005 CAUDILLOS, COUPS, CONSTITUTIONS AND CHANGES: AN ANALYSIS OF FLAG CHANGES IN LATIN AMERICA Ralph Kelly Abstract: The paper provides a review of historical changes in the design of national flags in Latin America since independence. Despite the perception that their national flags do not change, a number of Latin American countries have changed the design of their national flag since independence, either in minor ways or by adopting a completely new design. Some countries have experienced frequent flag changes in the past and only two Latin American national flags have never changed since independence. The paper undertakes a statistical analysis of the pattern of such changes and their reasons, which can be categorised into eight factors. The paper seeks to explain the past changes of the national flags of Latin America in the context of the unique history of the continent. Many flag changes in the past have been associated with changes of government, but in the past century the national flag is a more significant symbol than contemporary governments. The paper assumes an existing general knowledge of the designs and meaning of Latin American flags. Illustrations include reproductions from some of the major historical flag books of the Nineteenth Century and new re-constructions by the author. Text: The initial impression of Latin American flags is that they do not change. All of the national flags shown in "The Flags of the Americas" issue of The National Geographic

No attempt will be made in this paper to argue that the state flag is controversial simply because it incorporates the Confederate battle flag or that it represents the Confederacy itself. Rather, this paper will focus on the flag as it has become associated, since the 1956 session, with preserving segregation, resisting the 1954 U.S. Supreme Court decision of Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, and maintaining white supremacy in Georgia. A careful examination of the history of Georgia’s state flag, the 1956 session of the General Assembly, the designer of the present state flag – John Sammons Bell, the legislation redesigning the 1956 flag, and the status of segregation at that time, will all be addressed in this study.

  • Flags Over Antarctica
    Flags over Antarctica Edward Kaye Abstract Graham Bartram’s unofficial 1995 flag for Antarctica first flew over the White Continent on the last day of 2002. Ted Kaye raised it onshore at several locations on Antarctica’s Danco Coast and the South Shetland Islands. He presented it to the commanders of the scientific bases of Bra- zil, the United Kingdom, and Ukraine and flew it on the expedition vessel M/V Orlova. One of several flags for Antarctica, the most recent design displays the continent in white on a field of United Nations blue. The designer explicitly intended to fulfill both reasons for “mappy flags” later identified by Mason Kaye (Maps on Flags, ICV XIX, 2001): uniqueness and neutrality. The actual flags were provided by Outpost Flags (Wisconsin, USA). Under the 1959 Antarctic Treaty, the 12 countries most involved in the continent’s his- tory and exploration agreed to defer their territorial claims. 44 nations have now signed the treaty, although many maintain a presence there and fly their own flags or specific territorial flags in order to protect their interests.1 Antarctica is thus the sovereign terri- tory of no country, without an official flag of its own. However, several proposals for unofficial flags have been developed. In 1985 Dr. Whitney Smith proposed a design for Antarctica: “on an orange background, off-center near the hoist, a design in white consisting of a pair of stylized hands framing a circle segment below a capital A.” (Fig. 1). The circle segment repre- sents the area of the globe below 60° south, the hands are for protection of the environ- ment, the negative [orange] space between the hands and segment is the dove of peace, and the “A” is for Antarctica and combines with the segment to suggest the scales of justice.

  • Colours, Crosses Or Cow-Horns? Nordic Elements in the Design Of
    Colours, crosses or cow-horns? Nordic elements in the design of some North American flags and emblems with an overview of the use of Scandinavian flags in Canada and the U.S.A. Kevin Harrington Abstract This Canadian vexillologist introduces the historical and contemporary uses of Scandinavian flags in North America. He proceeds to analyze the design of North American flags that have some tie-in with the five Nordic countries. Certain individuals of Scandinavian descent who had a role in North American vexillology are also identified. The writer looks at organizational and institutional flags and emblems, house flags , sports pennants and banners, sailing and yacht club burgees, and private signals of mariners, as well as a few civic flags of Canada and the United States. He counts the frequency ofNordic elements chosen in the designs of these flags and draw appropriate conclusions. Introduction The Nordic countries of Iceland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Finland have made many significant contributions to North American history, geography, and civiliza­ tion- from Leif Ericsson to Otto Sverdrup, from New Sweden to Little Norway, from kringles to saunas, from farmers in the Dakotas to lumbermen in Thunder Bay, from pdtissiers in Toronto to fishermen on Lake Winnipeg, from Ole Edvart Rolvaag to Martha Ostenso, from Karen Magnusson to Matts Sundin, an import on an National Hockey League team. To these - and there are several other categories of contribu­ tions -we now add those in the field of vexillology and emblematics. By the words Norden or Nordic, this writer means 'the northern European countries commonly re­ ferred to as Scandinavia but including also Iceland and Finland.' By Nordic elements we mean the arrangements, charges, and colours of the Nordic flags, and design ele­ ments of heraldic, dynastic, sigillographic, artistic, and other historic derivations.

  • Translating Coats-Of-Arms and Emblems Into Flags
    Translating Coats-of-Arms and Emblems into Flags Marcel van Westerhoven Abstract Flag designs will come into their own if the special qualities of flags are taken into account. The wind plays an important role in that. So, horizontal patterns will wave better than vertical ones if the flag flies from a vertical mast. Objects moved to the hoist will have better visibility. Using the practice of pars-pro-toto makes flags simpler and more readily recognizable from a distance. And complicated symbols or human figures on coats-of-arms can be translated into clear symbolism. This is how Dutch local flags were and still are designed and can be seen in many examples. This way of designing local flags can now also be seen in abundance in Flanders, the Czech Republic, some parts of Spain, and Puerto Rico. Designing local flags with these principles will lead to distinctive, simple, and recognizable flags that will perform well in outside conditions. The basis is there already: you can use the coats- of-arms or emblems already in existence. The design quality of these flags can be compared to national and subnational flags and will stand out. They will have status by being not sub-par in design compared to those flags of “higher order”. Will these principles reach more countries in the future? Who will follow?
