Civilian Participation in Politics and Violent Revolution: Ideology, Networks, and Action in Peru and India CIVILIAN PARTICIPATION IN POLITICS AND VIOLENT REVOLUTION: IDEOLOGY, NETWORKS, AND ACTION IN PERU AND INDIA A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Government By Devin M. Finn, M.A. Washington, DC May 25, 2016 Copyright 2017 by Devin M. Finn All Rights Reserved ii CIVILIAN PARTICIPATION IN POLITICS AND VIOLENT REVOLUTION: IDEOLOGY, NETWORKS, AND ACTION IN PERU AND INDIA Devin Finn, M.A. Thesis Advisor: Charles King, Ph.D. ABSTRACT How and why do ordinary people in democratic states participate in violent revolution? This dissertation explores variation in the confluence of civilians’ participation in status quo politics – through electoral channels and civil society action – and in violent insurgencies that seek to conquer the state. Through a comparative juxtaposition of Peru’s Shining Path and the Naxalite movement in India, I argue that an insurgency’s particular ideological interpretations and conceptions of membership shape civilian support by influencing everyday social relations between rebels and civilians and changing networks of participation. During war, civilians are agents of political mobilization, and rebels exploit social networks, which draw on historical forms of organization and activism and a long trajectory of political ideas about race, citizenship, and class. I examine people’s varied participation in violent politics in three settings: the regions of Ayacucho and Puno, Peru (1960-1992), and Telangana, a region of southern India (1946-51). Where communities in Peru drew on existing political resources – diverse networks that expressed peasants’ demands for reform and representation, and which emphasized commitment to democratic contestation over armed struggle – people could choose to resist rebels’ mobilizing efforts. Where communities lacked integrated political organization, insurgents implemented violent ideologies by repurposing local networks. iii Mobilization in Telangana, in contrast to Ayacucho and Puno, exhibited a fluidity of method that was sustained by peasants’ agency in building a wide-ranging movement, even as it crossed the line into violence. The study draws on ten months of field research in India and Peru, where I examined local and national archival records and testimonies and conducted interviews with former left party leaders, activists, and civilians in rural and urban areas affected by violence. I develop an ethnography of people’s participation in a range of political activities, from protests and voting to civil resistance and searching for the bodies of victims of massacres. The study emphasizes a distinct ontology of the practice of politics: as a continuum of acts that may emerge as violent, illicit, licit, and non-violent in differing moments and social and cultural contexts, and acknowledges the possibility that violent and nonviolent mobilization may reinforce one another. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS During several years of research, I have incurred considerable reasons to be thankful and multiple debts. These debts constitute opportunities for me to continue working, exploring, and sharing journeys with the people who have inspired and helped me the most. With that in mind, I am very grateful to my committee members for their challenging counsel, understanding support, and faith. It really has made all the difference. Charles King, as a mentor, has provided encouragement from day one, nurturing my approach to seeing and studying politics and violence. Charles has shown me that words matter, as well as place; that our work deserves care, creativity, and time; and that good social science is principled, systematic, and grounded in historical realities. He introduced to me the idea that doing research is like engaging in a “critical refinement of reality” with our interlocutors in the field, which has allowed me to understand a bit more what and why I am doing as a student of politics. Charles made it possible, by doing whatever was necessary for several years, for me to succeed and learn. For that there is no sufficient thank-you, but I am committed to continuing to do the kind of research that we both value. While I undertook research in the field in Peru, I worked with and learned from several individuals who are exceedingly generous and dedicated. Percy Rojas welcomed me with open arms, opened his world of activism and memory-making, and made it possible for me to gather the experiences of many people I otherwise could not have reached. We have traversed many mountain roads together. Gisela Ortíz Perea created a space for accompaniment and learning, and her interpretations, so rooted in the struggle for justice and truth, have left an indelible mark on v my understanding of how victims and their relatives process their experiences and make politics out of violence. The Equipo Peruano de Antropología Forense (EPAF) – Peruvian Forensic Anthropology Team – provided an intellectual home for me for many trips to Ayacucho over several years. José Pablo Baraybar and Hayden Gore supported my initial investigations and desires to travel with EPAF. I also owe deep thanks for accompaniment and companionship while traveling on the rainy roads and in the tiny hamlets of Ayacucho to Solange Jacobs and Edith González, who are leaders in their own artistic and humanitarian work. They helped me ask – and begin to figure out – what we were all doing out there. Ricardo Caro Cárdenas is a historian, friend, and formidable scholar. He introduced me to a fascinating and raw archive at a critical moment in my research, exhibiting a kind of trust that humbled me. I am thankful for his many wry interventions. José Luis Rénique generously provided advice and contacts as I prepared for research and interviews in Puno. For this I will always be grateful to him. Ana Pino Jordán is a curious scholar who opened her personal library, her home, and her stories and theories to me as I tried to find my footing in Puno and la región Sur Andino. I thank Gustavo Gorriti for sharing his experiences and guiding the line of my research in direct and strategic ways – and for correcting my pronunciation of “Hualla.” Jo-Marie Burt, through her inspiring devotion to studying Peru and advocating for justice, has set the highest of standards for research and activism that contributes to the defense of human rights. For this I am incredibly thankful; it has guided the emphasis and tenor of my work. Javier Puente provided great ideas, insider archive knowledge, and early support to my work in Peru. Ponciano del Pino vi generated theoretical insights and shared rich empirical knowledge in response to my questions about violence and politics in Ayacucho. Ruth Borja Santa Cruz, who encouraged and supported my first forays in the documentation and testimonies at the Centro de Información para la Memoria Colectivo y Derechos Humanos (CIMCDH) when she was the director of the archive there, may not be aware of how her kindness and example sustained my investigations. Years later, Ruth provided guidance on subsequent research and indulged my interest in working in the Archive of the Confederación Campesina del Perú, which she and her students rescued, quite literally, from the dustbin of history. Another source of early support for my overall project and research was the late Father Jeffrey Klaiber, whose profound knowledge of Peru transcended old stories and the right contacts, and who led me to the kinds of people and narratives that would deepen my project. I regret not having thanked him in person for all he offered me. Oscar García at the Biblioteca Nacional del Perú responded to my inquiries about periodical sources from the decades prior to the war with generosity and helped me navigate the hemeroteca. In Puno, Peru, I benefited greatly from the involvement of the Federación Departamental de Campesinos de Puno (FDCP) in my day-to-day research. Their willingness to facilitate contacts, grant me interviews, and provide me with historical materials revealed the organization’s extraordinary commitment to activism. Father Robert Hoffman, who responded to my many questions about the Church’s role in Puno with patience and a reflective attitude, was encouraging and knowledgeable. I would like to express my gratitude to those activists, journalists, political leaders, academics, and party militants in Peru and India who spoke candidly with me in interviews. vii Their memories and analyses will remain with me as I continue with this project and take on new investigations. While working in the uncharted (for me) realm of research in Delhi and Hyderabad, I benefited from the counsel of several people. Matthew Rudolph drew on his deep knowledge of politics and history and place to help me shape and reshape the framework of my research many times. He also provided many valuable contacts for intellectual and social support. Manny Teitelbaum provided support throughout the process of developing the project and conducting research in India, and as a committee member, reliably asked the difficult questions that made the project better. I appreciate his commitment to the project and to my growth in the profession. Milan Vaishnav presented me with ideas for contacts and fellow researchers working in some of the same strange and fascinating places in southern India. Amitabh Mukhopadhyay shared his life story with me, which traversed the complicated threads of political activism that I aim to highlight. Father Marianus Kujur welcomed me into the world of research on tribals and provided ideas, resources, and invitations to the field. Without the support of several institutions I would not have been able to complete the dissertation. The Georgetown University Department of Government, the Sié Chéou- Kang Center at the Josef Korbel School of International Studies at the University of Denver, and EPAF provided years of support to me and the dissertation project as it evolved.

    LSE Latin America and Caribbean Blog: Bolivia’s 2020 election: winning is only the beginning for Luis Arce and the MAS Page 1 of 3 Bolivia’s 2020 election: winning is only the beginning for Luis Arce and the MAS The new MAS government of Luis Arce will be caught between popular expectations of a return to relative prosperity, a growing ecological catastrophe tied to a declining economic model, and a range of social and ideological challenges that pit right-wing religious forces against an increasingly progressive younger generation. But even if the years ahead will show that this victory was in fact the easy part, for now Bolivians have given the world a vital lesson in democracy, writes Bret Gustafson (Washington University in St Louis). Though the official tally is still being finalised, exit polls released around midnight on Sunday 18 October suggest an overwhelming victory for the MAS party in Bolivia, just eleven months after the ouster of Evo Morales. To avoid a run-off, the MAS presidential candidate Luis Arce needed at least 40 per cent of the vote and a ten-point lead over his nearest rival, but this looked like anything but a foregone conclusion in the lead-up to the elections. Luis Arce and his MAS party achieved a sweeping victory just eleven months after Evo Morales was ousted from the presidency (flag removed, Cancillería del Ecuador, CC BY-SA 2.0) Pre-election polling and a divided opposition In the weeks and days before the vote, polling suggested that Carlos Mesa, a right-leaning historian who was briefly president in the early 2000s, stood a good chance of making it to the second round.

Narayana Rao Migration and Development Study Group Center for International Studies Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139 August 1977 Preface by Myron Weiner This study by Dr. K.V. Narayana Rao, a political scientist and Deputy Director of the National Institute of Community Development in Hyderabad who has specialized in the study of Andhra Pradesh politics, examines one of the earliest and most enduring attempts by a state government in India to influence the patterns of internal migration. The policy of intervention began in 1868 when the traditional ruler of Hyderabad State initiated steps to ensure that local people (or as they are called in Urdu, mulkis) would be given preferences in employment in the administrative services, a policy that continues, in a more complex form, to the present day. A high rate of population growth for the past two decades, a rapid expansion in education, and a low rate of industrial growth have combined to create a major problem of scarce employment opportunities in Andhra Pradesh as in most of India and, indeed, in many countries in the third world. It is not surprising therefore that there should be political pressures for controlling the labor market by those social classes in the urban areas that are best equipped to exercise political power.

  • Telangana Issue After Holding Consultations with Leaders from Telangana, Rayalaseema and Coastal Andhra Regions for Over Two Months
    Telangana What is Telangana? Telangana refers broadly to the parts of the state that formed the erstwhile Hyderabad state. Telangana is a region in the present state of Andhra Pradesh, India and formerly was part of Hyderabad state which was ruled by Nizam. It is bordered with the states of Maharashtra on the north and north-west, Karnataka on the west, Chattisgarh on the north-east and Orissa to the east. Andhra Pradesh State has three main cultural regions of which Telengana is one part and others include Coastal Andhra region on the east and Rayalaseema region on the south. The Telangana region has an area of 114,840 square kilometres (44,340 sq mi), and a population of 35,286,757 (2011 census) which is 41.6% of Andhra Pradesh state population. The Telangana region comprise of 10 districts: Adilabad, Hyderabad, Khammam, Karimnagar, Mahbubnagar, Medak, Nalgonda, Nizamabad, Rangareddy, and Warangal. The Musi River, Krishna and Godavari rivers flow through the region from west to east. Historical Perspective The ruler of India’s largest princely state, Mir Osman Ali Khan, the seventh Nizam of Hyderabad, was not willing to acede either to India or Pakistan in 1947. Then the Telangana Rebellion started, which was a peasant revolt which was later supported by the Communists. It took place in the former princely state of Hyderabad between 1946 and 1951. This was led by the Communist Party of India. The revolt began in the Nalgonda district and quickly spread to the Warangal and Bidar districts. Peasant farmers and labourers revolted against the local feudal landlords (jagirdars and deshmukhs) and later against the Osman Ali Khan, Asif Jah VII.

  • 1 Corruption, Organized Crime and Regional Governments in Peru Lucia
    Corruption, organized crime and regional governments in Peru Lucia Dammert1 & Katherine Sarmiento2 Abstract Decentralization in a context of state´s structural weakness and growth of illegal economies is a fertile ground for corruption and impunity. Although corruption is not a new element of Peruvian politics, its characteristics at the regional level depict a bleak scenario. This chapter focuses on corruption cases linked to political leaders that participated in the last two regional elections in Peru (2010 and 2014). Multiple elements involved in most cases are analyzed in a systematic way defining a political process that includes a charismatic leader, a dense family network, a populist political movement, a frail campaign finance regulation and apparent links with criminal organizations. Although some legal changes have been implemented, there is a clear need for a profound political reform that would include revisiting the decentralization process as well as developing an structural justice reform initiative. Introduction Corruption is an important issue in Peru. The corruption perception index published by Transparency International shows that globally Peru has gone from place 72 to 101 (out of 175) between 2010 and 2016. As mentioned by Transparency International, countries that are located in the lower end of the scale are “plagued by untrustworthy and badly functioning public institutions like the police and judiciary. Even where anti-corruption laws are on the books, in practice they're often skirted or ignored”3. Within Latin America, the perception of corruption in Peru has also increased. According to the Global Corruption Barometer (2017), 62 percent of Latin Americans believe that corruption levels increased compared to the previous year.
