LOUIS RENt BERES* On September 20, 2002, President Bush issued the National Security Strategy of the United States of America ("National Security Strategy").' Expanding this country's right of preemption in foreign affairs - a right known formally as 2 "anticipatory self-defense" under international law - the new American doctrine asserts, inter alia, that "[t]raditional concepts of deterrence will not work against a terrorist enemy whose avowed tactics are wanton destruction and the targeting of innocents...."' The doctrine goes on: "We must adapt the concept of imminent threat to the capabilities and objectives of today's adversaries. ' 4 This "adaptation" means nothing less than striking first where an emergent threat to the United States is presumed to be unacceptable.5 Might the broadened right of preemption include assassination? Normally we think of preemptive strikes in terms of military operations against enemy forces and/or infrastructures. -

Lesbian and Gay Music
Revista Eletrônica de Musicologia Volume VII – Dezembro de 2002 Lesbian and Gay Music by Philip Brett and Elizabeth Wood the unexpurgated full-length original of the New Grove II article, edited by Carlos Palombini A record, in both historical documentation and biographical reclamation, of the struggles and sensi- bilities of homosexual people of the West that came out in their music, and of the [undoubted but unacknowledged] contribution of homosexual men and women to the music profession. In broader terms, a special perspective from which Western music of all kinds can be heard and critiqued. I. INTRODUCTION TO THE ORIGINAL VERSION 1 II. (HOMO)SEXUALIT Y AND MUSICALIT Y 2 III.

INTRODUCTION TO THE ORIGINAL VERSION 1 What Grove printed under ‘Gay and Lesbian Music’ was not entirely what we intended, from the title on. Since we were allotted only two 2500 words and wrote almost five times as much, we inevitably expected cuts. These came not as we feared in the more theoretical sections, but in certain other tar- geted areas: names, popular music, and the role of women. Though some living musicians were allowed in, all those thought to be uncomfortable about their sexual orientation’s being known were excised, beginning with Boulez. -
Missing from the Map: Feminist Theory and the Omission of Jewish Women Jennifer Roskies Researcher, ISGAP and Bar-Ilan Universit
1 Missing from the Map: Feminist Theory and the Omission of Jewish Women Jennifer Roskies Researcher, ISGAP and Bar-Ilan University [email protected] The Working Papers Series is intended to initiate discussion, debate and discourse on a wide variety of issues as it pertains to the analysis of antisemitism, and to further the study of this subject matter. Please feel free to submit papers to the ISGAP working paper series. Contact the ISGAP Coordinator or the Editor of the Working Paper Series. Working Paper Roskies 2010 ISSN: 1940-610X © The Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and PolicyISBN: 978-0-9819058-6-0 Series Editor Charles Asher Small ISGAP 165 East 56th Street, Second Floor New York, NY 10022 United States www.isgap.org 2 ABSTRACT This paper examines an apparent omission within feminist theory. Feminists of diverse cultural backgrounds have developed theoretical models which articulate their respective standpoints in relation to the sexism of their racial/ethnic groups on the one hand, and what has been termed “mainstream” or “white” feminism on the other. This is not the case when it comes to multicultural and ethnographic research regarding Jewish women, notwithstanding the involvement of many Jewish women in the feminist movement generally, including as leading theorists. Would a body of scholarship which examines Jewish women’s experiences from this dual perspective uncover a distinct theoretical model? How would such a “feminist Jewish women’s standpoint” address their concerns within the Jewish world as well as within the world of mainstream feminism – such as expressions within the mainstream women’s movement that pertain to Jewish issues or Israel? In examining the possible origins of the existing asymmetry, as well as its implications, this paper explores the possibility of adding new dimensions to understanding of multicultural feminism, identity studies and the study of Jewish identity. -

Introduction: Genocide: Definitions, Questions, Settler-Coloni
Introduction Genocide: definitions, questions, settler-colonies Ann Curthoys and John Docker Genocide is … a composite of different acts of persecution or destruction. Raphaël Lemkin, Axis rule in occupied Europe1 … we need far more, not fewer, serious comparative studies. Ward Churchill, A little matter of genocide2 The idea for this collection of essays on ‘Genocide’? came originally from our reading of Marcia Langton’s comment in Australian Humanities Review in mid-2000. She said that Aboriginal writing, scholarship, and research are taking on the feel of Holocaust studies in the sense that Aboriginal people write, read, and research ‘to try to understand the terrible, inexplicable past’. She expressed disgust at ‘those who do not want what hap- pened to us and our ancestors remembered into “history”’. She did not use the word ‘genocide’. We thought the questions she raised, of how to come to terms with terrible pasts, and to what degree one can use insights from one history to interrogate another, deserved further thought. The unresolved issue for us was whether the notion of geno- cide could be fairly applied to Australian history. The Human Rights Commission’s Bringing Them Home report of 1997, which investigated the history and effects of Abo- riginal child removal in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, had controversially argued that Australian child removal practices fell within the definition of genocide used in the UN 1948 Genocide convention. In other words, Australia had its own his- tory of genocide. This aspect of the report horrified many Australians of quite varying political views. Many people, including historians, rejected the notion that child removal could be reasonably described as ‘genocide’. -

CAN WORDS PRODUCE ORDER? Regicide in the Confucian Tradition
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Lirias CAN WORDS PRODUCE ORDER? Regicide in the Confucian Tradition CARINE DEFOORT KU Leuven, Belgium ᭛ ABSTRACT This article presents and evaluates a dominant traditional Chinese trust in language as an efficient tool to promote social and political order. It focuses on the term shi (regicide or parricide) in the Annals (Chunqiu). This is not only the oldest text (from 722–481 BCE) regularly using this term, but its choice of words has also been considered the oldest and most exemplary instance of the normative power of language. A close study of its uses of ‘regi- cide’ leads to a position between the traditional ‘praise and blame’ theory and its extreme negation. Later commentaries on the Annals and reflection on regicide in other texts, in different ways, attest to a growing reliance or belief in the power of words in the political realm. Key Words ᭛ Annals (Chunqiu) ᭛ China ᭛ language ᭛ order ᭛ regicide Two prominent scholars hold a debate in front of Emperor Jing (156–41 BCE). One of them is Master Huang, a follower of Huang Lao and the teachings of ‘The Yellow Emperor and Laozi’. The other is Master Yuan Gu, a specialist in the Book of Odes and appointed as erudite at the court of Emperor Jing. Master Huang launches the discussion with the provoca- tive claim that Tang and Wu, the founding fathers of China’s two exem- plary dynasties, respectively the Shang (18th–11th century) and Zhou (11th–3rd century) dynasties, were guilty of regicide against Jie and Zhòu, the last kings of the preceding dynasties. -

Signed (candidate) Date: 13 April 2015 Summary ‘Honour’-based violence (HBV) is defined as a form of crime, predominantly against women, committed by the agnates of the victim, often in collaboration, which are justified by the victims’ perceived violation of social norms, particularly those around sexuality and gender roles. While HBV is often considered as a cultural phenomenon, I argue that the cross-cultural distribution of crimes fitting this definition prohibits a purely cultural explanation. I advance an alternate explanation for HBV through a deployment of the cultural materialist strategy and the anthropological theories of Pierre Bourdieu, Claude Lévi-Strauss (as interpreted by Gayle Rubin) and Eric Wolf. -
