For this, many thanks are due. During this project I have counted on the support of three supervisors. Maud Eduards has accompanied me from the start; I want to thank you for enthusiastically making me feel welcome at the department and then for all the discussions and careful readings of my texts during the years. Göran Bergström joined the project a little later with sharp comments in a beneficial mix between vigilance and encouragement, thank you! Peo Hansen stepped in at a time when the project had entered a shaky phase; thank you for your reassuring and resourceful readings and for all the full day meetings (in person or over the phone). For the fact that I at all came to embark on this project, I wish to thank Pauline Stoltz and Annica Kronsell, my supervisors at Lund University. Thank you for showing me that Political Science could actually entail more dimensions than I had initially thought and for encouraging me to apply to the PhD program. The department of Political Science at Stockholm University has been my main base during these years. At the department, I have had the fortune to be part of two research groups: Politics of Development (PODSU) and Politics and Gender – thanks to all the members for discussions, readings and seminars. Here, I have also been surrounded by colleges and friends who have sustained my workdays, provided support in the small and the large, collaborated on teaching, and who have turned academia into a stimulating place (not only for intellectual reasons). Thanks to Henrik Angerbrandt, Eva Hansson, Christina Alnevall, Linda Ekström, Anneli Gustafsson, Anders Sjögren, Mats Wärn, Elin Hafsteinsdóttir, Jenny Madestam, Per-Anders Svärd, Helena Tinnerholm- Ljungberg and Katharina Tollin. For counter-acting the sometimes rough aspects of a PhD candidate’s existence, I also want to thank Lena Helldner and Ulrika Mörth. The postcolonial reading group constituted a sphere for inspiring, theoretical encounters; thanks to Ylva Habel, Tobias Hübinette, Catrin Lundström, Maria Carbin and Paula Mählck. Several people have also specifically contributed to the fact that this project has now come to an end. Aina Tollefsen and Helena Tinnerholm Ljungberg were the discussants of my final draft and provided careful, encouraging and knowing readings of the manuscript – thank you! Thanks also to Lars Lindsröm, Kjell Engelbrekt and Maritta Soininen, who were on the committee at the seminar, for helpful comments. For friendship and valuable comments on versions of these chapters I want to thank Anneli Gustafsson, Ylva Habel, Catrin Lundström, Dalia Mukhtar

The project’s economic, social and environmental impacts are addressed, and we present some conclusions are presented for discussion.

    Writing the Opposition: Power, Coercion, Legitimacy and the Press in Pinochet's Chile A dissertation presented to the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Brad T. Eidahl December 2017 © 2017 Brad T. Eidahl. All Rights Reserved. 2 This dissertation titled Writing the Opposition: Power, Coercion, Legitimacy and the Press in Pinochet's Chile by BRAD T. EIDAHL has been approved for the Department of History and the College of Arts and Sciences by Patrick M. Barr-Melej Professor of History Robert Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT EIDAHL, BRAD T., Ph.D., December 2017, History Writing the Opposition: Power, Coercion, Legitimacy and the Press in Pinochet's Chile Director of Dissertation: Patrick M. Barr-Melej This dissertation examines the struggle between Chile’s opposition press and the dictatorial regime of Augusto Pinochet Ugarte (1973-1990). It argues that due to Chile’s tradition of a pluralistic press and other factors, and in bids to strengthen the regime’s legitimacy, Pinochet and his top officials periodically demonstrated considerable flexibility in terms of the opposition media’s ability to publish and distribute its products. However, the regime, when sensing that its grip on power was slipping, reverted to repressive measures in its dealings with opposition-media outlets. Meanwhile, opposition journalists challenged the very legitimacy Pinochet sought and further widened the scope of acceptable opposition under difficult circumstances. Ultimately, such resistance contributed to Pinochet’s defeat in the 1988 plebiscite, initiating the return of democracy.

    “ART IS IN OUR HEART”: TRANSNATIONAL COMPLEXITIES OF ART PROJECTS AND NEOLIBERAL GOVERNMENTALITY _____________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board _____________________________________________ in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy _____________________________________________ By G.I Tinna Grétarsdóttir January, 2010 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Jay Ruby, Advisory Chair, Anthropology Dr. Raquel Romberg, Anthropology Dr. Paul Garrett, Anthropology Dr. Roderick Coover, External Member, Film and Media Arts, Temple University. i © Copyright 2010 by G.I Tinna Grétarsdóttir All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT “ART IS IN OUR HEART”: TRANSNATIONAL COMPLEXITIES OF ART PROJECTS AND NEOLIBERAL GOVERNMENTALITY By G.I Tinna Grétarsdóttir Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, January 2010 Doctoral Advisory Committee Chair: Dr. Jay Ruby In this dissertation I argue that art projects are sites of interconnected social spaces where the work of transnational practices, neoliberal politics and identity construction take place. At the same time, art projects are “nodal points” that provide entry and linkages between communities across the Atlantic. In this study, based on multi-sited ethnographic fieldwork in Canada and Iceland, I explore this argument by examining ethnic networking between Icelandic-Canadians and the Icelandic state, which adopted neoliberal economic policies between 1991 and 2008. The neoliberal restructuring in Iceland was manifested in the implementation of programs of privatization and deregulation. The tidal wave of free trade, market rationality and expansions across national borders required re-imagined, nationalized accounts of Icelandic identity and society and reconfigurations of the margins of the Icelandic state. Through programs and a range of technologies, discourses, and practices, the Icelandic state worked to create enterprising, empowered, and creative subjects appropriate to the neoliberal project.

DOI: 10.1080/08038740.2015.1086814 [email protected] The Exotic North: Gender, Nation Branding and Post-colonialism in Iceland Kristín Loftsdóttir Abstract This discussion stresses that looking at countries on the margins of European colonial rule can be useful when considering the wider dynamics of the present, reflecting the persistence of colonial discourses and how racism “endures”. Iceland’s colonial experience was characterized by duality, in which the country was an object of colonialism, while actively participating in the racist discourses predominant in Europe at that time. This paper demonstrates how Iceland’s long association with the exotic and its gendered manifestations is currently being perpetuated by the tourist and state industries, under the influence of neo-liberal ideas about nation branding. When contextualized within the larger geopolitical environment, Iceland as an “exotic” destination unravels the racist and colonized narratives still at play within a wider geopolitical context.

In particular, this research analyzes the negotiation and redefinition of culture between Nicaragua’s revolutionary past and its neoliberal present. In order to expose what aspects of the cultural project survived and what new manifestations appear, this thesis examines the followings elements: 1) the cultural policy and institutional apparatus created by the government of President Chamorro; 2) the effects and consequences that this cultural policy produced in the country through the battle between revolutionary and post-revolutionary cultural symbols in Managua as a urban space; and 3), the role and evolution of Managua’s mayor and future president Arnoldo Alemán as an important actor redefining culture in the 1990s.

El cierre fue vertiginoso y cargado de novedades. En las últimas 48 horas se modificó el escenario político y quedaron definidas las fórmulas presidenciales que competirán en las PASO el próximo 11 de agosto. Claridad después de largos días de incertidumbre. En las elecciones nacionales se presentarán siete frentes electorales: Juntos por el Cambio, Frente de Todos, Consenso Federal, Frente de Izquierda y de los Trabajadores-Unidad, Frente Despertar, Frente Nos y Frente Patriota. El miércoles por la tarde Alberto Fernández y Sergio Massa cerraron el acuerdo electoral que negociaron durante tres meses y lograron conformar el frente opositor más grande que se presentará en estos comicios. Después de un café y de acercar posiciones, ambos publicaron en sus redes sociales el nombre de la nueva alianza: "Frente de Todos". Sergio Massa y Alberto Fernández competirán en el mismo frente electoral Al dejar la reunión Massa expresó que "por consenso o con primarias" dirimirán "cuáles son las mejores fórmulas y el mejor lugar que puede ocupar cada uno".
