Paul ’t Hart To my parents Acknowledgements For the completion of this thesis I am grateful to many people. Bengt Sundelius and Eric Stern first believed in this project and got me going. It would not have been possible without generous financial support from the Swedish Emergency Management Agency. Intellectually, I can just count myself fortunate to have had the privilege to work under the supervision of Paul ‘t Hart. Through this project I got to know and to take the Netherlands to my heart. I am truly happy to have had the chance to spend time in above all Leiden, where I made friends and worked together with Sander Dekker, Jörg Noll, Arjen Boin, Sanneke Kuipers, Martijn Groenleer, Fleur Alink, Celesta Bos and more. In Stockholm, where most of this research was carried out, I regularly benefited from construc- tive feedback on draft chapters bestowed by my dear friends and colleagues on the Crismart team, of whom it would be impossible to point out anyone in par- ticular. I also owe much appreciation to Daniel Nohrstedt at Uppsala University for fruitful and challenging discussions over the years. Thanks to all of you this has been a pleasant experience.

This observation is obviously relative, and does not say much about patterns of terrorism as such. However, the ubiquity of terrorism is indicative of a transforming world in terms of how security is conceived. Terrorism as a phenomenon is certainly not novel. It is usually dated back to the part of the French Revolution (1793–94) known as the Reign of Terror (Laqueur 1987: 11).

  • Med Röda Betar Och Betäckt Svans
    MED RÖDA BETAR OCH BETÄCKT SVANS Anteckningar om en nedtystad affär, Lennart Geijers eskapader, Olof Palmes dementier, 1944 års män och en utsökt memoarbok av Mats Parner ¤¤¤ Det var först vid 3-tiden på eftermiddagen den 17 november 1977, som DN-reportern Peter Bratt fick telefonkontakt med Leif GW, dåvarande polischefen Carl Perssons högra hand och en redan på den tiden exceptionellt verbal herre. Samtalet handlade inledningsvis om TV-profilen och musikkritikern Sigvard Hammar, internt kallad ”Ondskan på hjul” och nyss dömd till sex månader bakom lås och bom för medhjälp till koppleri. Närmare bestämt hade Sigvard H bistått den (ö)kända bordellmamman Hopp i dennas lukrativa näringsfång. I det välförsedda Doris Hoppstallet rymdes omkring fyrtio prostituerade, varav två jäntor i 14- 15-årsåldern. Allt detta var kända fakta. Men Leif GW satt också inne med sensationella nyheter. Efter de inledande telefonpreludierna lät han Bratt få veta att högste chefen, Carl Persson, redan den 21 augusti 1976 lämnat över en hemlig promemoria med ovanligt explosiv Hoppanknytning direkt till statsminister Palme och inrikesminister G Punkt Peterson. Av denna promemoria framgick särskilt, enligt Leif GW, att justitieminister Lennart Geijer sedan länge misstänkts för intimt samröre både med Hopp själv och fr a med delar av hennes könsensemble. Detta innebar i sin tur, såvida misstankarna kunde styrkas, att konungariket Sveriges officielle justitieminister eventuellt var en säkerhetsrisk … eftersom några av kvinnorna i Hoppcirkusen kom från Polen och stod i regelbunden kontakt med sitt hemlands Stockholmsambassad. På så vis kunde Geijer bli offer för avancerad utpressning. Carl Persson insisterade på att regeringen skulle prioritera ärendet och gå till botten med hela affären.

  • "Topp-Politikerna Köpte Sex På Bordell"
    Den så kallade bordellhärvan skakade Sverige och ledde till regeringskris på 70-talet. Aftonbladet kan i dag avslöja innehållet i en ny, kontroversiell bok om skandalen. Om hur statsministern mörklade härvan - och hur åklagare vägrade att gå till botten med en utredning som skulle ha kunnat avslöja flera toppolitiker. "Topp-politikerna köpte sex på bordell" JUSTITIEMINISTERN NEKADE Geijer-affären exploderade sedan Dagens Nyheter 1977 avslöjade att rikspolischef Carl Persson överlämnat en hemlig pm till statsminister Olof Palme. I dokumentet pekades sex toppolitiker ut som kunder till prostituerade. En av dem var justitieminister Lennart Geijer, som förnekade alla anklagelser. Foto: skånereportage Boken "Makten, männen, mörkläggningen" kommer ut inom kort. "Jag har aldrig haft någonting med dessa kvinnor att göra" Förre statsministern Thorbjörn Fälldin som pekas ut som sexköpare i boken. Foto: ralf bergman Kända svenskar pekas ut i ny bok En minister och andra toppolitiker anklagas för att ha gått till prostituerade i en ny bok. Även företagsledare, högt uppsatta jurister och kända kulturpersoner har köpt sex, skriver författarna. Flera av männen hängs ut med namn - och en av dem hotar med stämning. Om ett par veckor kommer boken "Makten, männen, mörkläggningen" av journalisterna Deanne Rauscher och Janne Mattsson ut. Det är en granskning av den så kallade bordellhärvan som skakade Sverige i mitten på 70- talet. En skandal där flera toppolitiker anklagades för att ha gått till prostituerade. I boken presenteras nya - och mycket kontroversiella - uppgifter om vilka riksdagsmän som ska ha varit inblandade i härvan. - Sanningen har inte kommit fram än. Det är dags att den gör det, säger Deanne Rauscher.

  • The Ends of Modernization: Development, Ideology, and Catastrophe in Nicaragua After the Alliance for Progress
    THE ENDS OF MODERNIZATION: DEVELOPMENT, IDEOLOGY, AND CATASTROPHE IN NICARAGUA AFTER THE ALLIANCE FOR PROGRESS A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by David Johnson Lee December 2015 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Richard Immerman, Advisory Chair, History, Temple University Dr. Harvey Neptune, History, Temple University Dr. David Farber, History, University of Kansas Dr. Michel Gobat, History, University of Iowa © Copyright 2015 by David Johnson Lee All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation traces the cultural and intellectual history of Nicaragua from the heyday of modernization as ideology and practice in the 1960s, when U.S. planners and politicians identified Nicaragua as a test case for the Alliance for Progress, to the triumph of neoliberalism in the 1990s. The modernization paradigm, implemented through collusion between authoritarian dictatorship and the U.S. development apparatus, began to fragment following the earthquake that destroyed Managua in 1972. The ideas that constituted this paradigm were repurposed by actors in Nicaragua and used to challenge the dominant power of the U.S. government, and also to structure political competition within Nicaragua. Using interviews, new archival material, memoirs, novels, plays, and newspapers in the United States and Nicaragua, I trace the way political actors used ideas about development to make and unmake alliances within Nicaragua, bringing about first the Sandinista Revolution, then the Contra War, and finally the neoliberal government that took power in 1990. I argue that because of both a changing international intellectual climate and resistance on the part of the people of Nicaragua, new ideas about development emphasizing human rights, pluralism, entrepreneurialism, indigenous rights, and sustainable development came to supplant modernization theory.
