  • Resistance to the Censorship of Historical Thought in the Twentieth
    Published as: Antoon De Baets, “Resistance to the Censorship of Historical Thought in the Twentieth Century,” in: Sølvi Sogner, ed., Making Sense of Global History: The 19th International Congress of Historical Sciences, Oslo 2000, Commemorative Volume (Oslo: Universitetsforlaget, 2001), 389–409. RESISTANCE TO THE CENSORSHIP OF HISTORICAL THOUGHT IN THE TWENTIETH CENTURY1 Antoon De Baets University of Groningen, the Netherlands Abstract—This paper attempts to demonstrate that many historians have resisted the censorship of historical thought, either inside or outside tyrannical regimes, throughout the twentieth century. Those who actively struggled against persecution were either directly threatened and resisted the threat, or less personally involved but fighting for the cause of history, academic freedom and human rights. A third group, frequently in the background, consisted of all the outsiders who attempted to maintain solidarity with their persecuted colleagues. In addition, historians, in a unique professional reflex, are able to supplement contemporary resistance with retroactive resistan- ce. They possess the power to reopen cases and challenge the rulers' amnesia and falsification of history. The first group of historians were those directly affected by repression. Historians in prison taught history to their fellow inmates or were able to do some historical research. Outside prison, some historians engaged in clandestine activities such as publishing their work in the samizdat circuit, teaching at flying universities, or illegally gaining access to closed archives. Others defied likely censorship by refuting the cherished historical myths that supported the powers that be, or by uttering the unmentionable with historical metaphors. A minority adopted methods of open resistance. Some bravely refused to take loyalty oaths, and were dismissed.

  • Copyright 2012 Ryan Michael Jones
    Copyright 2012 Ryan Michael Jones “ESTAMOS EN TODAS PARTES”: MALE HOMOSEXUALITY, NATION, AND MODERNITY IN TWENTIETH CENTURY MEXICO BY RYAN MICHAEL JONES DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History with minors in Latin American and Caribbean Studies and Gender and Women’s Studies in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2012 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Nils Jacobsen, Chair Professor Antoinette Burton Professor Mark Micale Associate Professor Martin Manalansan Associate Professor Jocelyn Olcott, Duke University ABSTRACT In broad strokes my research investigates the intersections between the nation, citizenship, masculinity, and culture as engaged through the lenses of gender, sexuality, and transnational flows of ideas and people. My project is a genealogy of what Mexican citizenship has and has not included as told through discourses on homosexuality and the experiences of homosexuals, a group that for the majority of the 20th century were largely excluded from full citizenship. This did not mean homosexuals were unimportant; on the contrary, they were the foils against which the ideal Mexican could be defined and participants in both democracy and citizenship through their negation. The experiences and challenges faced by homosexuals illuminate the great, if gradual shift, from exclusive definitions of citizenship towards more universal forms of citizenship, however flawed, found in Mexico’s current multiculturalism. In fact, homosexuals’ trajectory from a maligned anti-Mexican group to representatives of pluralist democracy by the late 1970s sheds important light on how Mexico shifted from oligarchy through paternalist state-interventionism towards more participatory politics and towards an understanding of citizenship that incorporated pride parades as Mexican and homosexuals as worthy of state-sanctioned marriage by 2009, even as the structural causes of homophobia remained.

  • The Growth of Latin American Cities, 1870-1930
    7 THE GROWTH OF LATIN AMERICAN CITIES, 1870-1930 INTRODUCTION The European or North American who visited Latin America in the years before 1870 invariably came away struck by the diversity of the area - in geography, in people, in environment. Cities there were. Indeed cities had played a dominant role in the development of Spanish America at least, even when they contained only a small percentage of the area's total population. But generally they appeared small, poor and broken down. Far more impressive was the countryside of Latin America - the imposing Andean mountains, the vast Amazonian jungle, the endless grasslands of the llanos or the pampas, the picturesque Indian hamlets, the enormous landed estates. Consequently it was rural Latin America that most vividly emerged from the travel accounts, letters and dispatches of the middle decades of the nineteenth century. Nevertheless, a bird's eye view of the Latin American city in 1870 will set the stage for the dramatic changes that the ensuing decades brought to the area's urban landscape. Even the largest Latin American cities appeared small, in large measure because of their plaza-orientation. Both the residences of the wealthy and the powerful and the principal urban activities of adminis- tration, services and trade were concentrated around the central plaza. Rio de Janeiro, Havana, Mexico City and Buenos Aires all had central districts of only a few hundred blocks. These areas, often extending no more than five or ten blocks from the main plaza, had the appearance of an urbanized zone: substantial housing, paving, sidewalks and street lights.
