  • Radio Wars and Revolution in the Caribbean, 1959
    1 Alejandra Bronfman Radio Wars and Revolution in the Caribbean, 1959 Abstract For most places in the Caribbean, the term Cold War fails to describe the contentious, noisy, violent politics of the 1950s and ‘60s. In the rapidly changing political contexts of 1957–62, Haiti’s Francois Duvalier and Cuban Fidel Castro rose to power, while in the Dominican Republic Rafael Trujillo’s regime weakened and ended with his assassination in 1961. Actors across the ideological spectrum engaged in transnational ‘Radio Wars’ in their efforts to both undermine and prop up particular regimes. This article will explore those radio wars, understanding them not just as an enactment of the complex politics of the day, but also as the expression of a par- ticular kind of utopian imagining of radio’s potential for political mobilisation. It considers the politics of clandestine broadcasting across ideological, racial and national boundaries in the 1950s and ‘60s Caribbean. Expanding on and engaging a burgeoning literature on radio in Latin America and the Caribbean, attention to ‘Radio Wars’ adds fresh perspectives to histories of the Cold War, decolonisation, and the soundscapes of dictatorship and empire. More pre- cisely, it moves beyond a Soviet-US binary and considers the role of broadcasting and propa- ganda in the making of an inter-Caribbean war of frequencies. KEYWORDS: Broadcasting, Cold War, Cuba, Haiti, Caribbean In a recent article, Kate Lacey observes: ‘Despite notable exceptions, the volume and scope of the national broadcasting histories are freighted heavily towards the Global North.’1 Indeed, broad- casting in the Caribbean has not enjoyed the same depth and breadth of study as North American or European broadcasting.

  • 405 Bernard Diederich Former Latin America Correspondent Bernard
    book reviews 405 Bernard Diederich Seeds of Fiction: Graham Greene’s Adventures in Haiti and Central America, 1954–1983. London: Peter Owen, 2012. 315 pp. (Cloth us$29.95) Former Latin America correspondent Bernard Diederich’s account of his rela- tionship with Graham Greene and their journeys to Haiti and Central America from the 1950s to the 1980s is a most valuable memoir and resource for those interested in the peripatetic author and the troubled Cold War politics of the region. The renowned twentieth-century British writer gives the now retired journalist the perfect entrée to his specialist subject of Latin America in a book that is neatly divided into two equal parts, firstly dealing with Greene in Haiti and later in Central America. Diederich, a New Zealander by birth, details his first brief encounters with Greene from 1954 onward in Haiti, where the correspondent had set up an English-language weekly newspaper and lived with his Haitian wife. Like many writers and artists, Greene was attracted by the exotic black Caribbean repub- lic, independent since 1804. But Haiti’s relative peace was ruined from 1957 by the autocratic rule of country physician François “Papa Doc” Duvalier, who soon ruled the ex-French colony as a repressive dictator, many of his subjects mesmerized by his cultivation of Voodoo. The early part of Diederich’s book gives an overview of Haitian history and is interspersed with travelogue. His newspaper’s anti-Duvalierist stance courts the wrath of the country’s self-appointed president-for-life and his Tontons Macoutes, a murderous plain-clothes militia.

  • Peasants and Religion
    Peasants and Religion This study permits the authors to open new perspectives for the understanding of key features of Dominican culture. It is based on an impressive empirical investigation and a penetrating contribution with respect to popular religion and messianic movements. Roberto Cassá, Universidad Autónoma de Santo Domingo A remarkable and exhaustive study that should be required reading for anyone with a serious interest, not only in the island of Hispaniola, but in the Latin American peasantry and folk religion. Bernard Diederich, ex Time magazine correspondent for Mexico, Central America and the Carribbean Peasants and Religion is a very rare example of a work of ‘social science’ in the true sense of the word, one that transcends the traditional divisions between economics, history, anthropology and political science. Its analytical depth and richness make it a remarkably integrated contribution in the tradition of Gunnar Myrdal. Ronald Findlay, Columbia University Its importance lies in the attempt to show how this microcosm might explain the continuing power of religion. It provides a laboratory ‘experiment’ which could also explain the origins of the world’s great religions. Deepak Lal, University of California, Los Angeles The authors have given us a painstakingly detailed reconstruction of dramatic events. With a fine historical sense, they analyze the subject within the framework of economic and political change in the Dominican Republic.

  • COGE Annual Report 2018-2019.Pdf
    Rhode Island College Annual Report of the Committee on General Education May 8, 2019 Summer Assessment The summer 2018 assessment project, led by Dr. Maureen Reddy, focused on First Year Seminar. From detailed evaluation of the responses of FYS instructors, it was concluded that a restructuring of the College’s interaction with first year students is warranted. (Full report). The assessment report led to the proposal for RIC 100, a new one-credit course for all incoming first year students. The course was later proposed in detail, approved by COGE and UCC, and is being implemented in Fall, 2019. (Course proposal) RIC 100 will be offered each semester, with most of the sections in the fall. The current plan is for several large sections in the 12:00-1:00 time period on Wednesdays to allow students to attend (be taken to) major all-campus events. It is acknowledged that some sections will have to be at other times including evenings. A mechanism is needed to ensure that students are not charged extra for the course at the 18-credit limit. The course will need constant assessment including looking at changes in retention data. Consensus is that while Rhode Island College staff or adjuncts will be presenting many of the topics in their areas of expertise, a regular faculty member should be the instructor of record in each section and present at least some of the sessions. The faculty and staff participating in the course would have the same training to increase the likelihood that we deliver a consistent message.

Su labor se cifra en desterrar y matar y en proponer el perdón de las deudas y el reparto de las tierras, por lo que no es extraño deba perecer a manos de sus enemigos, o convertirse en tirano”.
