  • 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.

Twenty-five Years Later, Still Many Loose Ends In Three Major Cold War Cases Susanne Berger In 1944, the Swedish diplomat Raoul Wallenberg went to Hungary to protect the Jewish population of Budapest from deportation and death at the hands of Nazi death squads. In six short months, he managed to save thousands of lives and aided countless more by implementing an extensive humanitarian aid effort. In January 1945, he was arrested by Soviet troops and disappeared in the Soviet Union. In 1957, Soviet authorities announced that he had died in a Moscow prison in July 1947. They never presented any conclusive evidence for this claim and the full circumstances of his fate remain unknown. 1 On June 13, 1952 a Soviet fighter plane shot down a Swedish DC-3 reconnaissance aircraft over the Baltic sea.

COPYRIGHT FRA 2018 COVER The present meets the past ORIGINAL/LAYOUT Peo Werngren, FRA, 2018 DESIGN . Nowa Kommunikation, Göteborg What is signals intelligence? Signals intelligence is the art of extracting information (intelligence) from electronic signals. Signals intelligence has existed since the mid 19th century with the advent of telegraphic communications, and from the beginning of the 20th century concerning radio. The first step in signals intelligence is intercepting the interesting signals, usually in radio or cable transmissions. When the signal is col- lected, it often has to be processed to extract information, for example by translation, codebreaking or traffic analysis. Traffic analysis is the art of deducing information via patterns in communication or geographic locations of transmitters. In this way important information can be gleaned even if the content of the transmis- sion is not known. Encryption is when the content of a message is hidden, either by replacing words by codes, or by enciphering, where each character is changed according to a mathematical formula. Encryption was initially done manually with the aid of tables and codebooks. From the 1920s, electro-mechanical encryption machines were developed, the most well known of which is the German Enigma machine.

Berchtold is almost universallystigmatized for seeking to preserve a doomed empire at the risk of a European war. Although espoused by pacifists and apologists for the other powers, this criticism could have little relevance for Austro-Hungarianstatesmen. It was their duty to preserve Austria-Hungary, not peace. Since they perceivedthat Austria-Hungarywas doomed unless war was risked [in 1914],it was their responsibilityto risk war.' Externalization is one of the most enduring theories in the literature devoted to international conflict; Austria-Hungary going to war in 1914 in a desperate effort to restore internal order and prolong its existence is but one commonly cited example.
