Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 F 7377 POLITI 58^S8i ABSTRACT The British left has confronted a dilemma in forming its attitude towards Israel in the postwar period. The establishment of the Jewish state seemed to force people on the left to choose between competing nationalisms - Israeli, Arab and later, Palestinian. Over time, a number of key developments sharpened the dilemma. My central focus is the evolution of thinking about Israel and the Middle East in the British Labour Party. I examine four critical periods: the creation of Israel in 1948; the Suez war in 1956; the Arab-Israeli war of 1967 and the 1980s, covering mainly the Israeli invasion of Lebanon but also the intifada. In each case, entrenched attitudes were called into question and longer-term shifts were triggered in the aftermath.

The Election Observation Mission commends the Virgin Islands for taking positive steps to improve voting processes and to encourage a more positive campaign environment. Special commendation should go to the election officials who, in a short period of time, administered the election effectively. However, there is distrust in the electoral system, and the Mission continues to express concern that the regulatory framework, particularly in relation to campaign financing, lacks transparency and undermines the equality and openness of the election process. The Mission also expresses concerns about the qualification to vote and stand as a candidate and verification practices which challenge the principle of universal suffrage.” Hon. Palmavon Webster MHA, Head of Mission - Commonwealth Parliamentary Association British Islands and Mediterranean Region, Virgin Islands 2019 INTRODUCTION The Commonwealth Parliamentary Association British Islands and Mediterranean Region (CPA BIMR) Election Observation Mission (EOM) was present in the Virgin Islands from 15 February 2019 until 27 February 2019.

Todo el texto fue revisado y ampliado en 2007-2008. El título general es: HISTORIA DEL RÍO DE LA PLATA CRÓNICA DE LA EVOLUCIÓN DE LOS PAÍSES DEL RÍO DE LA PLATA 1516-1852 El tomo primero se titula: La aventura colonial española en el Río de la Plata: Conquista, colonización, emprendimientos. Del descubrimiento hasta la Revolución de mayo de 1810 Este primer tomo, como el segundo, proviene de mis dudas e interrogaciones acerca de la historia argentina tal como me la enseñaron hasta los dieciocho años de edad. Conviene aclarar desde un principio que no me he dedicado a una investigación original, sino más bien a una nueva lectura de la historia de mi país. Esta me ha llevado a elaborar un resumen de datos muy dispersos, seleccionados dentro de la literatura disponible, y a armar, con una presentación destinada a hacer resaltar los aspectos más importantes e interesantes, un compendio de informaciones, impresiones e interpretaciones provenientes de muchos historiadores argentinos y extranjeros. Este tomo primero está dividido en tres partes. En la parte primera se narra la conquista española y se describe la evolución económica de la colonia del Río de la Plata hasta que se creó el Virreinato en 1776.

  • Historia De Malvinas
    Historia de Malvinas 1764-1768. Es la época en que tres poderes se disputan las Islas España, Francia y Gran Bretaña. Dejando de lado el hecho del descubrimiento, que poco interés tiene desde el punto de vista jurídico, es reconocido por todos los autores que la primera nación que efectuó una ocupación efectiva de las Islas fue Francia, asentándose en la Malvina del Este.- Poco tiempo después los ingleses se asentaron en una pequeña isla (Isla Saunders) y fundaron allí Puerto Egmont, que les sirvió después para reclamar soberanía sobre la Gran Malvina (Malvina del Oeste) y posteriormente sobre todo el conjunto de islas.- Los franceses fueron reemplazados poco años después por los españoles. No cabe duda que la primera nación que reclamó la propiedad de las Malvinas, fue España. La protesta de este país en 1749 ante una pretendida expedición británica a "los mares del sur" sirvieron para demostrar que España consideraba a las Islas como formando parte de sus dominios de ultramar. Gran Bretaña se abstuvo de enviar la expedición, lo que no impidió que fuese Francia -unida a España por el Pacto de Familia- la que se asentó por primera vez en 1764.- Los derechos "prioritarios" de España fueron reconocidos, y Francia se retiró cediendo su asentamiento a los españoles, quienes resarcieron a Bougainville los gastos en que había incurrido.' Es de ese año y de fecha 11 de agosto en que podemos leer un primer documento jurídicamente estructurado y que defendía la supremacía de los títulos españoles sobre los títulos franceses. Se debe al Duque de Aranda, quien fundó los derechos españoles en que era de interés de España conservar las islas (argumento político); en que las mismas eran dependencias del dominio español, aunque despobladas (argumento jurídico); y que el asentamiento francés podía ser la base para un comercio ilícito con Chile y Perú cayendo también los recursos pesqueros en manos extranjeras.

  • A Outra Guerra Do Fim Do Mundo As Malvinas E “Redemocratização” Da a Mérica Do Sul
    $RXWUDJXHUUDGR¿PGRPXQGR 6HomR(VSHFLDO A OUTRA GUERRA DO FIM DO MUNDO AS MALVINAS E “REDEMOCRATIZAÇÃO” DA A MÉRICA DO SUL Osvaldo Coggiola 1. QUESTÃO NACIONAL, MILITARISMO, MALVINAS Entre inícios de abril e meados de junho de 1982 teve lugar o enfrentamento militar entre Argentina e Inglaterra (apoiada pelos EUA) pela posse e soberania das Ilhas Malvinas, ocupadas por tropas argentinas a 2 de abril de 1982. Depois da Segunda Guerra Mundial, o das Malvinas foi um dos conitos em que mais perto se esteve do uso de armas atômicas, carregadas pela frota inglesa ao Atlântico Sul para seu eventual uso contra o território continental argentino. Na guerra, as forças armadas argentinas usaram 14.200 soldados; o Reino Unido, 29.700, com armamento e apoio logístico muito superior. O saldo nal da guerra foi a recuperação do arquipélago pelo Reino Unido e a morte de 650 soldados argentinos, além de 1068 feridos (muitos de gravidade) e de 11.313 prisioneiros; de 255 soldados britânicos, e de três civis das ilhas, mortos, além de 777 feridos. Na década posterior à guerra, houve aproximadamente 350 suicídios de ex-combatentes argentinos, reduzidos na sua maioria a uma situação de miséria social; os suicídios de ex soldados ingleses atingiram a soma de 264. O cenário bélico, incluída a ilusão da ditadura argentina de recuperar as ilhas pela via do enfrentamento (ou da ameaça) militar convencional, foi preparado no contexto da militarização das economias e das sociedades sul-americanas, no período dominado pelas ditaduras militares. Entre 1960 e 1978 o PIB dos países do Terceiro Mundo crescera a um ritmo médio de 2,7% anual, enquanto que os gastos militares nesses mesmos países cresceram com um ritmo do 4,2% anual.
