  • Nicaragua: in Brief
    Nicaragua: In Brief Maureen Taft-Morales Specialist in Latin American Affairs September 14, 2016 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R44560 Nicaragua: In Brief Summary This report discusses Nicaragua’s current politics, economic development and relations with the United States and provides context for Nicaragua’s controversial November 6, 2016, elections. After its civil war ended, Nicaragua began to establish a democratic government in the early 1990s. Its institutions remained weak, however, and they have become increasingly politicized since the late 1990s. Current President Daniel Ortega was a Sandinista (Frente Sandinista de Liberacion Nacional, FSLN) leader when the Sandinistas overthrew the dictatorship of Anastasio Somoza in 1979. Ortega was elected president in 1984. An electorate weary of war between the government and U.S.-backed contras denied him reelection in 1990. After three failed attempts, he won reelection in 2006, and again in 2011. He is expected to win a third term in November 2016 presidential elections. As in local, municipal, and national elections in recent years, the legitimacy of this election process is in question, especially after Ortega declared that no domestic or international observers would be allowed to monitor the elections and an opposition coalition was effectively barred from running in the 2016 elections. As a leader of the opposition in the legislature from 1990 to 2006, and as president since then, Ortega slowly consolidated Sandinista—and personal—control over Nicaraguan institutions. As Ortega has gained power, he reputedly has become one of the country’s wealthiest men. His family’s wealth and influence have grown as well, inviting comparisons to the Somoza family dictatorship.

Turkey’s president Tayyib Recep Erdogan and Azerbaijan’s president Ilham Aliyev stood together on a dais in front of twenty Turkish and Azerbaijani flags, as 3,000 members of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces marched by, displaying military hardware captured from their Armenian foes. Military bands played the anthems of the old Ottoman Empire, the Turkish dynasty that ruled much of the Middle East in the name of Islam until World War I. Azerbaijani jets roared over the capital, dropping smoke in the green, blue and red colors of the Azerbaijani flag. Certainly, there was much to celebrate. In forty-four days of brutal combat, Azerbaijani forces reversed the humiliating defeat they experienced at Armenia’s hands in 1994 and recaptured much of the disputed territory of Nagorno-Karabakh. Turkey worked with Azerbaijan hand-in-glove during the war, supplying it with weapons, providing intelligence and air support, and bringing in thousands of battle-hardened fighters from Syria to fight on the ground.1 The victory opened up the possibility that the hundreds of thousands of Azerbaijanis driven from Armenian-occupied territory in the first Karabakh war, many of whom had lived for decades in squalid camps in Baku and its environs, would be able to go home.2 It was an impressive vindication of the alliance of these two Turkish states, exemplifying their alliance’s motto, “two states, one nation.” But a darker spirit was on display during the parade.

  • Sam Haraway Women's Movements in Revolutionary Cuba & Nicaragua
    Sam Haraway Women’s Movements in Revolutionary Cuba & Nicaragua Abstract: Despite their Marxist orientation, the revolutionary struggles of the 26th of July Movement in Cuba and the Sandinista National Liberation Front in Nicaragua were quite distinct. This is particularly true in regards to the experiences of women in both revolutionary movements. This paper explores this varied experience, focusing specifically on women within the guerrilla movements, women within their political arm of the vanguard, and the effect of the socio-cultural struggle on the realization of women's advancement after the movements had assumed power. It concludes three trends: more Nicaraguan women participated directly in the revolutionary struggle (albeit for different reasons), once the movements had been institutionalized the governments pursued women's advancement only in terms of greater class concerns, and the machista norm has proven a significant barrier in the progress of both revolutions. There is little dispute over the role Marxism has played in movements for social change in Latin America. As an ideology reacting to the perceived injustices of capitalism, it seems relevant that a discussion surrounding the realization of Marx’s alternative exists in the context of two successful revolutions. Moreover, while Marxism espouses a commitment to an egalitarian society, it is interesting to examine the extent to which this has been realized for women. This paper will argue that the advancement of women under the revolutionary movements of Cuba and Nicaragua, while beginning with similar ideological commitments, were experienced and realized in distinct manners. That is, although both revolutionary governments were committed to a similar vanguard Marxism, the experience of women varied in each country, as the result of the unique environments of both states.

    Challenging Gender Roles within Humanitarian Crisis: Predominant Patriarchal Structures before the Humanitarian Crisis and its Relation to the Identity and Experiences of Women refugees during and after the Humanitarian Crisis. A Case Study of Syria. Written by: Amer Skeiker Supervised by: Lisbeth Larsson Lidén NOHA International Masters in Humanitarian Action Uppsala University, Sweden December: 2015 1 This thesis is submitted for obtaining the Master’s Degree in International Humanitarian Action. By submitting the thesis, the author certifies that the text is from his/her hand, does not include the work of someone else unless clearly indicated, and that the thesis has been produced in accordance with proper academic practices. 2 Abstract One purpose of this study is to examine how predominant patriarchal practices can affect the experiences of women refugees. This study also examines how the gender roles and patriarchal practices may change during a conflict. A theoretical framework was constructed to examine the patriarchal practices through radical feminism approach. Also, possible ways of social change within a conflict is examined. Empirically, the Syrian conflict is selected for the case study. In order to answer the research questions, 26 semi-structured interviews were conducted to track any possible social change in the patriarchal practices in Syria during the conflict in comparison to before the conflict. The main two findings of this study are that a change did occur in the patriarchal practices in which women did achieve more freedom and more independence during the conflict in Syria. However, there were increased patriarchal practices when women became refugees outside Syria, in which there was less freedom and less independence for Syrian women, especially the less educated women.
