China, Cambodia, and the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence: Principles and Foreign Policy
China, Cambodia, and the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence: Principles and Foreign Policy Sophie Diamant Richardson Old Chatham, New York Bachelor of Arts, Oberlin College, 1992 Master of Arts, University of Virginia, 2001 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Politics University of Virginia May, 2005 !, 11 !K::;=::: .' P I / j ;/"'" G 2 © Copyright by Sophie Diamant Richardson All Rights Reserved May 2005 3 ABSTRACT Most international relations scholarship concentrates exclusively on cooperation or aggression and dismisses non-conforming behavior as anomalous. Consequently, Chinese foreign policy towards small states is deemed either irrelevant or deviant. Yet an inquiry into the full range of choices available to policymakers shows that a particular set of beliefs – the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence – determined options, thus demonstrating the validity of an alternative rationality that standard approaches cannot apprehend. In theoretical terms, a belief-based explanation suggests that international relations and individual states’ foreign policies are not necessarily determined by a uniformly offensive or defensive posture, and that states can pursue more peaceful security strategies than an “anarchic” system has previously allowed. “Security” is not the one-dimensional, militarized state of being most international relations theory implies. Rather, it is a highly subjective, experience-based construct, such that those with different experiences will pursue different means of trying to create their own security. By examining one detailed longitudinal case, which draws on extensive archival research in China, and three shorter cases, it is shown that Chinese foreign policy makers rarely pursued options outside the Five Principles. -

Signature: ………………………………………………………….. Abstract The Spanish party system after Francoism has been the subject of discussion of several academics and previous research. The purpose of this work is to approach this topic more deeply from a new perspective by paying attention to the shaping of ideology and voting patterns regionally and through time. This research has been structured into three main chapters. Firstly, a historical review of politics and key facts before the dictatorship has been carried out. Secondly, socioeconomic factors and voting patterns during the Second Republic have been analysed in detail. Thirdly, by focusing on insights acquired from previous chapters, several models of voting patterns and ideological shaping have been carried out from 1978 to 1994 at a national and regional level. The final conclusions show that (1) voting patterns and ideological identities after the dictatorship were still strongly influenced by lifelong social cleavages, (2) both voting patterns and ideological identities varied regionally, (3) preferences towards a democratic or authoritarian regimen did not affect voting and ideology after the dictatorship and (4) Francoism as a set of ideals still played an important role in defining voting patterns during the democratic era. -

A Tale of Parallel Lives: the Second Greek Republic and the Second Spanish Republic, 1924–36
Articles 29/2 15/3/99 9:52 am Page 217 T.D. Sfikas A Tale of Parallel Lives: The Second Greek Republic and the Second Spanish Republic, 1924–36 A cursory glance at Greek and Spanish history since the mid- nineteenth century suggests a number of parallels which become more pronounced after the 1920s and culminate in the civil wars of 1936–9 and 1946–9. The idea for a comparative approach to Greek and Spanish history occurred while writing a book on the Greek Civil War, when the social and economic cleavages which had polarized Greek society in the previous decade suggested parallels with the origins of the Spanish crisis of 1936–9. The Second Greek Republic of 1924–35 and the Second Spanish Republic of 1931–6 appeared to have shared more than their partial contemporaneity. The urge for a comparative perspective was reinforced by the need to provide against the threat of a historical and historiographical ethnocentricity; if the objective is to remain aware of the universality of human memory and avoid an ethnocentric perception of historical evolution, then it is not arbitrary to study other nations’ histories and draw comparisons where possible. As for the grouping together of Spain and Greece, objections based on dissimilarities with regard to the level of industrialization and urbanization must not be allowed to weaken the case for a meaningful comparative approach. Political scientists now treat Greece, Spain, Portugal and Italy as the distinct entity of southern Europe, structurally and histori- cally different from the continent’s western and eastern regions. -
Popular Royalists, Empire, and Politics in Southwestern New Granada, 1809 – 1819
Popular Royalists, Empire, and Politics in Southwestern New Granada, 1809 – 1819 Marcela Echeverri During the first decade of the nineteenth century, as Napoleon Bonaparte invaded the Iberian Peninsula, the Spanish monarchy entered into a transfor- mation unlike any other it had experienced since it claimed possession of the Americas. The replacement of King Fernando VII on the throne by Napoleon’s brother José in 1808 started a crisis of sovereignty felt from Madrid to Oaxaca to Tucumán, and all Spanish vassals were confronted with novel opportunities in the changing political landscape. In every corner of Spanish America, men and women faced the vacatio regis and adjusted to the liberal experiment taking form in the peninsula, as Spanish liberals unified to resist the French invasion. Their multiple and varied responses gave shape to anticolonial movements, in some cases, and in others were expressed through a renewed, full-fledged royalism. Since 1809 the Province of Popayán, encompassing the Pacific lowlands mining district and the Andean city of Pasto, had been a site of royalist resis- tance to the diverse autonomist and revolutionary projects that emerged in the viceroyalty of New Granada (colonial Colombia).1 Indians from the Pasto Research for this article was made possible by fellowships from New York University’s History Department, the John Carter Brown Library, and, in its final stages, through grants from Harvard’s Atlantic History Seminar and the Research Foundation of the City University of New York.

The Case of Napoleon Bonaparte Reflections on the Bicentenary of His Death
Working Paper 2021/18/TOM History Lessons: The Case of Napoleon Bonaparte Reflections on the Bicentenary of his Death Ludo Van der Heyden INSEAD, [email protected] April 26, 2021 In this article we reassess the myth of Napoleon Bonaparte, not so much from the standpoint of battles and conquests, but more from the point of view of justice, particularly procedural justice. This approach allows us to define the righteous leader as one who applies procedural justice. Using this concept, we aim to demonstrate that General Bonaparte could be considered as a just leader, although, in the guise of Emperor, he will be qualified here as the antithesis of that. The inevitable conclusion is that the Empire came to an end as a predictable consequence of Emperor Napoleon's unjust leadership. We recognize that the revolutionary aspirations of Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité were in themselves noble, but that they required for their implementation a system of procedural justice central to the resolution of the inevitable tensions and contradictions that these precepts would generate. We conclude by highlighting and examining how the notion of procedural justice is vital to the proper functioning of the modern European Union. In contrast, the difficulties presented by Brexit, or the Trump presidency, can be seen as the tragic, but also predictable consequences of an unjust leadership. We revisit the urgent need for fair management and debate; debate that can only take place when guided by righteous leaders. The imperial failure was a consequence of the drift towards injustice in the management of Empire. -

Domestic Spying: The Case of the French Government and Royalists in the Early Third Republic .ALAN GRUBB Clemson University The recent controversy surrounding the continuing revelations and charges of domestic spying and surveillance by the F.B.I., the C.I.A., and even the Internal Revenue Service brings to mind a similar problem and situation in late nineteenth century France. This involved the French government's persistent but, as it turned out, unnecessary surveillance of the activities of leading conservative politicians and the various royalist parties during the early years of the Third Republic, the results of which can be found in the Archives Nationales under the inflated and rather undeserved title "royalist intrigues".
