  • The Transparent Sphynix: Political Biography and the Question of Intellectual Responsibility
    file:///C|/milani.txt The Transparent Sphynix: Political Biography and the Question of Intellectual Responsibility Afshin Matin-asgari Abbas Milani, The Persian Sphinx: Amir Abbas Hoveyda and the Riddle of the Iranian Revolution (Washington DC: Mage Publishers, 2000). 399 pages. Political biography has become a popular genre in post- revolutionary Iran. Government figures, leaders of political parties, academics, and professional writers have already produced a large body of autobiographies, memoirs, biographies, and semi-biographical fiction. When a triumphant Islamic Republic called for a radical break with the past, it also caused a deep sense of anxiety and curiosity about all that was suppressed, rejected, and denied. Despite, or perhaps because of this official sanitizasion of history, there seems to be an endless appetite for books about the Pahlavi era (1926-79). Thanks to the bleak realities of post-revolutionary Iran, not only the old regime, but even the Qajar monarchy (1796-1925) has now acquired a warm nostalgic glow in popular imagination. For example, in the late 1990s, a best- selling novel called Bamdad-e Khomar (Morning of Intoxication) caused a minor cultural stir by going against supposedly populist literary conventions to depict wealth and aristocratic privilege as positive values. Beyond popular culture, a certain historical revisionism seems to be at work in serious historical/biographical studies that, like Abbas Amant’s Pivot of the Universe: Nasir al-Din Shah Qajar and the Iranian Monarchy: 1831-1896 (1997), take issue with pervasive but stereotypical representations of monarchy as the epitome of decadence and stagnation. Writing political biographies and autobiographies related to the Pahlavi era and the Islamic Republic, however, remains more politically sensitive and intellectually daunting.

In the second half of the 20th century, while some terrorist organizations in Western Europe, the United States, and Japan have resorted to violence in pursuit of their goal of world revolution, others, particularly, in the Third World, have engaged in acts of resistance, including violence, for the attainment of their democratic rights. Today, the more serious opposition movements are able to obtain support from outside sources for the pursuit of their aims. This thesis, deals first with the fundamental theoretical questions germane to the study of any opposition movement in current times (Chapter 1).

  • Student Activism Against the Neocolonial, Neoliberal University: Exploring a Sociology of Absences, Emergences, and Hidden Fires
    FOUR 2017 Student activism against the neocolonial, neoliberal university: Exploring a sociology of absences, emergences, and hidden fires Marcelle C. Dawson HE WORD ‘KNOWLEDGES’ does not commonly appear in the English dictionary. Indeed, word processor spelling and grammar tools insist on correcting the word to the Tsingular form (‘knowledge’) or the possessive case (‘knowledge’s’). Therein lies the conundrum that drives scholarship and struggle to seek cognitive justice. For Portuguese sociologist Boaventura de Sousa Santos, cognitive justice is about the recognition of ‘the coexistence of many knowledges in the world and the relation between the abstract hierarchies which constitute them and the unequal economic and political power relations which produce 54 Counterfutures 4 and reproduce increasingly more severe social injustice’.1 In oth- er words, the struggle for cognitive justice is an integral part of decolonising education: it seeks to destabilise the grip that West- ern thought has over the world, and pay more attention to other forms of knowledge that have been deliberately marginalised as part of the colonisation agenda. Aotearoa New Zealand is cer- tainly no stranger to debates and struggles regarding the decolo- nisation of education. The highly revered work of Linda Tuhiwai Smith and the recent collection by Jessica Hutchings and Jen- ny Lee-Morgan, are just two examples of scholarship that have made signifcant contributions to scholar-activism in this area.2 To extend these debates further and link them to a par- allel set of critiques about the neoliberal university, I employ the tools developed by Santos, who encourages us to engage in both a ‘sociology of absences’ and a ‘sociology of emergences’.
