  • The Revolutions of 1989 and Their Legacies

    The Revolutions of 1989 and Their Legacies

    1 The Revolutions of 1989 and Their Legacies Vladimir Tismaneanu The revolutions of 1989 were, no matter how one judges their nature, a true world-historical event, in the Hegelian sense: they established a historical cleavage (only to some extent conventional) between the world before and after 89. During that year, what appeared to be an immutable, ostensibly indestructible system collapsed with breath-taking alacrity. And this happened not because of external blows (although external pressure did matter), as in the case of Nazi Germany, but as a consequence of the development of insuperable inner tensions. The Leninist systems were terminally sick, and the disease affected first and foremost their capacity for self-regeneration. After decades of toying with the ideas of intrasystemic reforms (“institutional amphibiousness”, as it were, to use X. L. Ding’s concept, as developed by Archie Brown in his writings on Gorbachev and Gorbachevism), it had become clear that communism did not have the resources for readjustment and that the solution lay not within but outside, and even against, the existing order.1 The importance of these revolutions cannot therefore be overestimated: they represent the triumph of civic dignity and political morality over ideological monism, bureaucratic cynicism and police dictatorship.2 Rooted in an individualistic concept of freedom, programmatically skeptical of all ideological blueprints for social engineering, these revolutions were, at least in their first stage, liberal and non-utopian.3 The fact that 1 See Archie Brown, Seven Years that Changed the World: Perestroika in Perspective (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2007), pp. 157-189. In this paper I elaborate upon and revisit the main ideas I put them forward in my introduction to Vladimir Tismaneanu, ed., The Revolutions of 1989 (London and New York: Routledge, 1999) as well as in my book Reinventing Politics: Eastern Europe from Stalin to Havel (New York: Free Press, 1992; revised and expanded paperback, with new afterword, Free Press, 1993).

Email: [email protected] Course overview: This course will focus on a group of countries, which for the most part of the 20th century have been under the Communist rule. This group of countries can be further subdivided into four categories. After 1989, some of the former Communist countries initiated a successful double transition (both political and economic) that ended with their membership in the European Union (Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Romania, Bulgaria, Slovenia, the Baltic Republics). Some of the less successful countries from the region are E.U. candidates (Macedonia, Serbia, Montenegro), while others are potential candidates (Albania, Kosova, Bosnia and Herzegovina). However, democracy and market economies did not emerge in all of the former communist countries. The second group of countries ended up developing hybrid political regimes with unclear prospects in terms of democracy and market reforms (Moldova, Ukraine, Russia). The third group of countries includes authoritarian states like Belarus, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Tadjikistan. Ironically, the United States of America depend on some of these countries for the successful completion of the operations in Afghanistan, while Europeans try to diminish their dependence on Russia, by building new pipelines thoughout the region. Hence, we will explore whether there is a link between the richness in resources and the prospects for democratization.
  • 20Th Century Cartoonists: David Low, Bernard Partridge

    20Th Century Cartoonists: David Low, Bernard Partridge

    By RJ Tarr at www.activehistory.co.uk / 1 POLITICAL CARTOONISTS OF MODERN WORLD HISTORY 1. Bernard Partridge: The conservative Who was he? ▪ In 1901 Partridge replaced John Tenniel as the chief cartoonist at Punch. He died in 1945. “I believe a cartoon needs a simple statement of theme, with a corresponding treatment making an instant and direct appeal to the reader; a sense of drama and of humour” What were his cartoons about? ▪ They often commented on British domestic affairs: the social reforms, the women’s campaign for the vote, the impact of the war upon Britain. What were his personal views? ▪ Partridge was a Conservative: he was knighted by the Conservative Prime Minister, in 1925. ▪ He was very suspicious of the social reform programme, thinking the Liberals were creating a nanny state. ▪ He was also against female suffrage, and particularly disliked the Women's Social and Political Union (suffragettes) 2. David Low: The radical Who was he? David Low was born in New Zealand in 1891. His father's family had originally come from Fifeshire in Scotland. In 1927 Low joined the Evening Standard. He died in 1963. What were his cartoons about? ▪ They often comment on international affairs: appeasement, the rise of the dictators, the League of Nations. What were his personal views? ▪ Low had radical political views. In the 1930s he complained about Britain's foreign policy of appeasement, leading to accusations that he was a "war- monger". ▪ Low's cartoons criticizing Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini resulted in his work being banned in Germany and Italy.

  • THE FUNNIES of AUGUST: AMERICAN EDITORIAL CARTOONS in the OPENING MONTHS of the SPANISH CIVIL WAR by Wesley Moore HONORS THESIS

    THE FUNNIES of AUGUST: AMERICAN EDITORIAL CARTOONS in the OPENING MONTHS of the SPANISH CIVIL WAR by Wesley Moore HONORS THESIS

    THE FUNNIES OF AUGUST: AMERICAN EDITORIAL CARTOONS IN THE OPENING MONTHS OF THE SPANISH CIVIL WAR by Wesley Moore HONORS THESIS Submitted to Texas State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation in the Honors College May 2020 Thesis Supervisor: Louie Dean Valencia-García Second Reader: Joshua Paddison ABSTRACT This thesis studies American editorial cartoons depicting the Spanish Civil War of 1936. The other goal of this thesis is to create an exhibit display case in the Taylor-Murphy building showing select comics from the research for casual audiences. I chose comics specifically because the opinions of newspaper political cartoons appeal or market to a wide portion of the public, making them a compelling source to study the popular opinion and media of the time. The comics came from the pages of the New York Times, Chicago Daily Tribune, and Washington Post and from the months of July, August, and September 1936. The newspapers were chosen for their status as major publications, their name recognition to modern exhibit viewers, and to limit the scope of the project. Cartoons were researched from these publications in the time frame of July 17th, the beginning of the military coup, to September 30th. The end of the date range was chosen to limit the scope of the project and to focus on this specific historical moment at the onset of the war. Few studies have been completed on the American cartoons that portrayed the Spanish Civil War, so this project is helping to fill that void. Some of the trends noticeable in these months were a set of common visual clichés, simplification of the conflict, rejection of both sides of the Civil War, and an association of the political left in Spain with Roosevelt and the New Deal.

The most significant historical events are usually associated in our minds with the images of the people who were directly involved and who were in charge of the most crucial decisions at that particular moment in time. Thus, analyzing the American Civil War, we always mention the great role and the achievements of Abraham Lincoln as the president of the United States. We cannot forget about the actions of such charismatic leaders as Adolf Hitler, Josef Stalin, Winston Churchill, and Franklin D. Roosevelt when we think about the brutal events and the outcome of the World War II. Or, for example, the Cuban Missile Crisis and its peaceful solution went down in history highlighting roles of John F.
