  • Philosophical Statism and the Illusions of Citizenship Reflections on the Neutral State
    1 Philosophical Statism and the Illusions of Citizenship Reflections on the Neutral State Frank van Dun ∗ Is the welfare state neutral to personal morality? 1 In today's welfare states one can find numerous life-styles existing side by side. These indicate a wide scope for 'personal mo- ralities' 2, but do not prove that the welfare state is 'neutral' to them. Welfare states interfere in more or less onerous ways with the business of (private) life with police checks, administrative controls and a vast arsenal of regulatory, penal and/or fiscal regimes. Some of the regulations may be more or less reasonable attempts to minimise the risk of one person inflicting irreparable damage on others or their property, but a great many are not. It is not too difficult to see the hand of special (economic, ideological, even sectarian) interests in the bulk of the rules and regulations on the books. 3 The state's non-neutrality is often an unintended outcome, but not always. Officials introduce new regulations with proud declarations of their intention to enforce particular 'moral choices', to treat one thing as a 'merit good' and another as an evil. They also justify intrusive policies with blatantly paternalistic arguments—remember their promise, or was it threat, to take care of us "from the cradle to the grave"—, with self-congratulatory references to an unspecified 'responsibility of the government'. There is no more direct negation of the role of private mo- rality than the claim that one discharges one's own responsibility by depriving others of the opportunity to exercise theirs.

  • The Rise and Fall of Fascism
    The Rise and Fall of Fascism Michael Mann, Professor of Sociology, University of California at Los Angeles. E-mail: [email protected] Fascism was probably the most important political ideology created during the 20th century. In th e inter -war period it dominated half of Europe and threatened to overwhelm the other half. It also influenced many countries across the Middle East, Asia, Latin America and South Africa. In Asia, for example, its influence was probably strongest on the Chinese Kuomintang, Japanese militarists and Hindu nationalists. My book Fascists (Cambridge University Press, 2004) is based on research on fascists where they were strongest, in six European countries -- Austria, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Romania and Spain. In the book I ask the question, why did fascism rise to such prominence? And I answer it looking at the men and women who became fascists: who were they, what did they believe in, and how did they act? There are two main schools of interpretation among scholars as to the rise of fascism. An idealist school has focused on fascists' beliefs and doctrines, emphasizing their nationalist values. Most recently, some of these scholars have termed fascism a form of “political religion”. 1 A more materialist school has focused on fascism’s supposed lower -middle class or middle class (petit bourgeois or bourgeois) base and the supposed way in which fascism was used to save capitalism when it was in difficulties. The debates between them constitute yet another replay of ongoing polemics between idealism and materialism in the social sciences. Both nationalism and class were important in fascism.

  • The Immoral Equivalent of War
    1 The Immoral Equivalent of War Deirdre Nansen McCloskey We are in a war, say all the presidents, the thoughtful and quasi-liberal presidents such as Emmanuel Macron in France and Moon Jae-in in Korea, as well as the thoughtless and quasi- fascist ones such as Donald Trump in the US and Viktor Orbán in Hungary. A terrible war. But the worst part is not the war itself against the disease and, as collateral damage, the crushing of the economy, wretched though they are. The worst part is the post-War likelihood of a triumphant statism, and then the fascism to which triumphant statism regularly gives rise. The disease is for 2020. The fascism is forever. The young historian Eliah Bures wrote six months ago a collective review in Foreign Affairs of books from left and right, books that all used prominently what he calls “the other F- word,” fascism. He notes that the word can be used foolishly, to mean “politics I don’t like.” Thus the “Anti-Fa,” that is, “Anti-Fascist,” movement of the loony left in the US. Bures is correct. But slipping into extremes of nationalism, socialism, racism, and the rest of the quicksand of the 1930s is not impossible. The 1930s, after all, happened. In the 1930s. Late in Bures’ essay, by way of a comforting conclusion from the apparent safety of November 2019, he pens a sentence that has acquired a terrifying salience: “Barring a crisis of capitalism and democratic representation on the scale of the 1920s and ’30s, there is no reason to expect today’s populism to revert to fascism.” Uh oh.

I came with no particular background in British law, but having studied American constitutional law, the oldest written constitution in the modem world, I have decided it would be of considerable interest to further my understanding of modem constitutionalism by looking at the oldest example of an unwritten constitution. My knowledge of British public law was, then, extremely shallow and came almost exclusively from translating into Korean A.V.Dicey’s classic work,An Introduction to the Law o f the Constitution.

  • The Fallacy of a Priori Statism
    THE FALLACY OF A PRIORI STATISM Alan G. Futerman* & Walter E. Block** I. INTRODUCTION In this Article, we attempt to undermine the intellectual case for statism and defend anarchism. Part II addresses the fallacy of a priori statism, and Part III presents the justification for anarchism. The burden of Part IV is to deal with objections. We conclude in Part V. II. A PRIORI STATISM In the field of epistemology, the a priori, in Kant’s view,1 corresponds to that knowledge which is independent of experience2 and, according to John Stuart Mill, before experience.3 Statism may be defined as the doctrine holding the government as a solution to virtually every problem.4 Statists place the government * © Alan G.

  • Islam and Democracy: Complicated Dialectics
    Man In India, 97 (6) : 57-70 © Serials Publications ISLAM AND DEMOCRACY: COMPLICATED DIALECTICS Viktor Vasilevich Zheltov*, Maxim Viktorovich Zheltov*, Sergey Vladimirovich Biriukov* and Alexander Mihailovich Barsukov** Abstract: The authors touch upon the impact of democratization tendencies on the Muslim world development process. The research conception is based on formulation and analysis of Islamic political platform. The authors explain how democratization processes tribute to shaping of new political realities in the Arab world. At the same time the authors disclose the problem of tensions rising between the West and the East. The article reviews social and political effects of adapted and transformed democratic values promotion in the Muslim world. Keywords: Arab spring, protest movement, revolution, Islam, Islamism. INTRODUCTION To explain the transformation of democracy values and modernization of the Arab world nations the causes of social upheaval and revolutions are to be researched as well as such phenomenon like the Islamic State. The changes of social and political context of West-East relations make it necessary to comprehend and analyze democratization tendencies in the Muslim world. RESEARCH METHODS To study the impact of democratization tendencies and development processes in the Muslim world it is necessary to apply such methods like comparative, socio- economic and socio-cultural analysis. Under the new institutional approach the existing formal democratic institutions in the Near East are taken into consideration in relation to the non-democratic informal institutions and political practices. It serves as the methodological basis for such studying. Besides, the authors applied structural and functional methods for studying of deep transformation of political and socioeconomic systems in the Near East societies in relation to the democratic prospects of these countries and societies.

The French Fifth Republic at Fifty: Beyond Stereotypes, Routledge, 2009. This version: April 2008 7250 words France has long been considered as the ideal type of statist interest intermediation, despite some elements of weak neo-corporatism. With a strong central government and a highly technocratic tradition, interest groups had but a marginal role to play in the policy-making process. Mistrustful of intermediary bodies that were considered to distort the expression of the public interest, France tellingly outlawed associations at the end of the 18th century and only re-established associational freedom in 1901.

  • STATISM, EMANCIPATION and the LEFT: UNDERSTANDING UNCONVENTIONAL POLITICAL PARTICIPATION in COSTA RICA1 Elías Chavarría-Mora2
    STATISM, EMANCIPATION AND THE LEFT: UNDERSTANDING UNCONVENTIONAL POLITICAL PARTICIPATION IN COSTA RICA1 Elías Chavarría-Mora2 Abstract Ideology has been traditionally considered to be an explanation of political behavior, both inside and outside academia, which has been nowadays mostly abandoned. This paper sets out to inves- tigate if a relationship between ideology and unconventional po- litical participation exists, for the Costa Rican elections of 2014. It yields results that indicate that while the majority of Costa Ricans do not engage in political participation, there is a minority that does, with an identifiable emancipatory, statist and leftist ideolo- gy. A strong contradiction is found in the population between their ideological self-identification and their values and attitudes. The paper then argues in favor of more nuanced measurements of ide- ology than self-identification questions. Furthermore, it becomes apparent that each form of participation has a different relation- ship with the ideological elements.Therefore, studying them as if they were one should be avoided. Key words: ideology, political participation, Costa Rica, political values, political attitudes 1 This paper was based on a thesis written by the author while he was a re- search assistant at the Centro de Investigación y Estudios Políticos at the Uni- versity of Costa Rica. The author would like to thank Ciska Raventós, Diego Fernández, Gerardo Hernández, Allan Abarca, two anonymous reviewers who kindly offered their suggestions and specially Adrián Pignataro and Ilka Tre- minio for their support and commentary on his research. 2 The author is a Ph.D. student in political science at the University of Pittsburgh and has a licenciatura and a bachelor’s degree in the same field from the Uni- versity of Costa Rica.
