  • Access to Resources and Predictability in Armed Rebellion: the FAPC’S Short-Lived “Monaco” in Eastern Congo Kristof Titeca
    ● ● ● ● Africa Spectrum 2/2011: 43-70 Access to Resources and Predictability in Armed Rebellion: The FAPC’s Short-lived “Monaco” in Eastern Congo Kristof Titeca Abstract: This article discusses the impact of economic resources on the behaviour of an armed group. The availability of resources, and the presence of “lootable” resources in particular, is presumed to have a negative impact on the way an armed group behaves toward the civilian population. The case of the Armed Forces of the Congolese People (Forces Armées du Peuple Congolais, FAPC) in eastern Congo strongly suggests that it is necessary to look beyond this monocausal argument so as to witness the range of other factors at work. In this vein, first, the article demonstrates how the political economy literature underestimates the ease of accessibility of lootable resources. The paper then shows how the behaviour of this armed group was tied to a particular economic interest: In order to access these lootable goods, the FAPC was dependent on pre-established trading networks, so it had to increase the predictability of economic interactions through the construction of a minimum of social and economic order. Second, the article reveals how the political economy literature can underestimate the specific conflict dynamics. Military security in particular has a strong impact in this context. Manuscript received 3 August 2011; accepted 11 October 2011 Keywords: Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Uganda, armed con- flicts, armed forces/military units, informal cross-border trade Kristof Titeca is a postdoctoral fellow from the Research Foundation – Flanders (FWO), based at the Institute of Development Policy and Man- agement, University of Antwerp.

  • Rebellion and God's Judgment in the Book of Jude
    ________________________________________________________________________________ BIBLIOTHECA SACRA 170 (October–December 2013): 454–77 REBELLION AND GOD’S JUDGMENT IN THE BOOK OF JUDE Herbert W. Bateman IV UDE’S SHORT LETTER, tucked away at the end of the New Tes- tament, offers a straightforward theological point frequently J overlooked, yet pertinent to both his and the present time.1 Writing with a sense of urgency (v. 3),2 Jude tackled directly the issue of rebellion and the subsequent outcome for anyone who re- bels against God. Jude’s theological concern about rebellion and its Herbert W. Bateman is an author and teacher who resides in Leesburg, Indiana. 1 Several reasons suggest why Jude’s epistle tends to be overlooked. First, Jude’s insulting tone (vv. 8–16) and his evident displeasure over the godless when he de- clared, “Damnation to them” (oujai; aujtoi'", v. 11) can be unsettling. Second, words interwoven in the letter like “I keep” (thvrew, vv. 1, 6, 13, 21) and “immorality” (ajsevlgeia, v. 4; ejkporneuvsw, v. 7) are finely nuanced and important for understand- ing Jude’s argument. His ambiguous use of “ungodly” (ajsebei'") and “these people” (ou|toi, vv. 8, 10, 12, 16, 19) is difficult to apply to twenty-first-century believers. Third, Jude’s references to Old Testament situations (e.g., Exodus generation, an- gels, and Gentile urbanites, vv. 5–7) as well as Old Testament people (e.g., Cain, Korah, Balaam, v. 11) and his application of them to his generation may seem for- eign. Fourth, including nonbiblical material like 1 Enoch (vv. 14–15) and The As- sumption (Testament) of Moses (v.

  • NAT TURNER's REVOLT: REBELLION and RESPONSE in SOUTHAMPTON COUNTY, VIRGINIA by PATRICK H. BREEN (Under the Direction of Emory
    NAT TURNER’S REVOLT: REBELLION AND RESPONSE IN SOUTHAMPTON COUNTY, VIRGINIA by PATRICK H. BREEN (Under the Direction of Emory M. Thomas) ABSTRACT In 1831, Nat Turner led a revolt in Southampton County, Virginia. The revolt itself lasted little more than a day before it was suppressed by whites from the area. Many people died during the revolt, including the largest number of white casualties in any single slave revolt in the history of the United States. After the revolt was suppressed, Nat Turner himself remained at-large for more than two months. When he was captured, Nat Turner was interviewed by whites and this confession was eventually published by a local lawyer, Thomas R. Gray. Because of the number of whites killed and the remarkable nature of the Confessions, the revolt has remained the most prominent revolt in American history. Despite the prominence of the revolt, no full length critical history of the revolt has been written since 1937. This dissertation presents a new history of the revolt, paying careful attention to the dynamic of the revolt itself and what the revolt suggests about authority and power in Southampton County. The revolt was a challenge to the power of the slaveholders, but the crisis that ensued revealed many other deep divisions within Southampton’s society. Rebels who challenged white authority did not win universal support from the local slaves, suggesting that disagreements within the black community existed about how they should respond to the oppression of slavery. At the same time, the crisis following the rebellion revealed divisions within white society.

  • Greed and Grievance in Civil War
    # Oxford University Press 2004 Oxford Economic Papers 56 (2004), 563–595 563 All rights reserved doi:10.1093/oep/gpf064 Greed and grievance in civil war By Paul Collier* and Anke Hoefflery *Centre for the Study of African Economies, University of Oxford yCentre for the Study of African Economies, University of Oxford, 21 Winchester Road, Oxford OX2 6NA; e-mail: anke.hoeffl[email protected] We investigate the causes of civil war, using a new data set of wars during 1960–99. Rebellion may be explained by atypically severe grievances, such as high inequality, a lack of political rights, or ethnic and religious divisions in society. Alternatively, it might be explained by atypical opportunities for building a rebel organization. While it is difficult to find proxies for grievances and opportunities, we find that political and social variables that are most obviously related to grievances have little explanatory power. By contrast, economic variables, which could proxy some griev- ances but are perhaps more obviously related to the viability of rebellion, provide considerably more explanatory power. 1. Introduction Civil war is now far more common than international conflict: all of the 15 major armed conflicts listed by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute for 2001 were internal (SIPRI, 2002). In this paper we develop an econometric model which predicts the outbreak of civil conflict. Analogous to the classic principles of murder detection, rebellion needs both motive and opportunity. The political science literature explains conflict in terms of motive: the circumstances in which people want to rebel are viewed as sufficiently rare to constitute the explanation.

Kellner, Co-Chair This dissertation comprises three case studies of audience participation in media, addressing in turn Web 2.0, fan culture, and video games. The overarching theoretical framework highlights the dynamics between participation ‘from above’ and ‘from below,’ emphasizing the fact that participation is managed, controlled, and commodified on the one hand, and holds the potential for autonomy, creativity, and resistance on the other. This framework represents a synthesis of existing approaches to the study of audiences, bridging accounts of ‘participatory culture’ and ‘audience autonomy’ with those emphasizing the ‘new spirit of capitalism’ and the ‘social factory.’ The first constituent chapter is a study of the ideology and practice of Web 2.0 platforms, centering on a thematic analysis of managerial literature that finds such platforms to be extensions of what Boltanski and Chiapello term the ‘new,’ ‘participatory’ spirit of capitalism.

  • Judgment Day Must Wait Jehovah’S Witnesses— a Sect Between Idealism and Deceit
    Judgment Day Must Wait Jehovah’s Witnesses— A Sect Between Idealism and Deceit By Poul Bregninge (YBK Publishers, New York, 2013) Fear of the apocalypse that never comes! That is what holds a Jehovah's Witness power-bound by the Watch Tower Society of Brooklyn. Armageddon is always just a little way around the corner. Poul Bregninge presents a complete history and ideology of the Society and the reasons why it keeps a keen focus on the Day of Judgment. He tells of multiple "days of reckoning" that pass uneventfully and how each failure of Christ to reappear is reevaluated by the Society to foretell of yet another apocalypse still to come. Judgment Day Must Wait, by Poul Bregninge The fear of that moment keeps Witnesses firmly in the fold. Judgment Day is the carrot dangled before them. Everyone knows the Jehovah's Witnesses, right? Those somber people who appear at our doors, offering literature and the everlasting salvation of our souls? What do we know about them? What we see at our door are the facades, their Society- devised disguises, directed to convert anyone willing to follow their Witness-ways of believing and living. In this book you will confront the thinking that motivates those beliefs. Poul's book provides a comprehensive view of JW history, its upheavals and struggles, and a raw demonstration of the manipulation and cruelty dealt to those it charges with expanding its membership. By keeping Judgment Day ever coming, the Watch Tower Society ensures a ready supply of workers to proclaim the ever-coming coming.
