  • The Federacion Anarquista Uruguaya (FAU): Crisis, Armed Struggle and Dictatorship, 1967•1985
    The Federacion Anarquista Uruguaya (FAU): Crisis, Armed Struggle and Dictatorship, 1967•1985 Texts by Juan Carlos Mechoso, Jaime Prieto, Hugo Cores and others translated and edited by Paul Sharkey Published by the Kate Sharpley Library 2009 © Kate Sharpley Library 2009. No reproduction for profit. ISBN 9781873605691 Anarchist sources #11 Downloaded from www.katesharpleylibrary.net What is Anarchism? Anarchism is a political theory which opposes the State and capitalism. It says that people with economic power (capitalists) and those with political power (politicians of all stripes left, right or centre) use that power for their own benefit, and not (like they claim) for the benefit of society. Anarchism says that neither exploitation nor govern• ment is natural or necessary, and that a society based on freedom, mutual aid and equal shares of the good things in life would work better than this one. Anarchism is also a political movement. Anarchists take part in day•to•day strug• gles (against poverty, oppression of any kind, war etc) and also promote the idea of comprehensive social change. Based on bitter experience, they warn that new ‘revolu• tionary’ bosses are no improvement: ‘ends’ and ‘means’ (what you want and how you get it) are closely connected. Federación Anarquista Uruguaya 1 The FAU (Federación Anarquista Uruguaya), founded in 1956, was one on the strongest anarchist movements in Latin America. In the 1960s, it faced a rising tide of repression which would culminate in the military dictatorship of 1973•85. As legal avenues of struggle were closed down, through the Worker•Student Resistance (ROE) and OPR•33 (People’s Revolutionary Organisation) it expanded its tactics to include armed struggle in defence of the workers movement.

The Japanese occupation of China during the war had significant implications and affected the political fortunes of the Kuomintang and the Communists in diverse ways.

A Critical Look at Transitional Justice and Justice Cascade Examining Committee: Chair: Dr. Kathleen Millar Visiting Professor Department of Sociology and Anthropology Dr. Alexander Dawson Senior Supervisor Professor Department of History Dr. Onur Bakiner Supervisor Limited Term Professor School for International Studies Dr. Jon Beasley-Murray External Examiner Associate Professor Department of French, Hispanic and Italian Studies University of British Columbia Date Defended/Approved: August 22, 2013 ii Partial Copyright Licence iii Ethics Statement iv Abstract A key controversial issue in Uruguay has been the nation’s inability to achieve a lasting reconciliation regarding human rights violations after a twelve year dictatorship. While other scholars have identified factors that caused the resurgence of the demand for human rights prosecutions, I focus on the nation’s eventual failure to do so. This, I argue, is a result of the executive, the civil society and the politicization of human rights violations. I offer a critical reading on transitional justice and the justice cascade as explanatory frameworks to understand how societies confront their authoritarian past. Although these concepts both seem relevant, they are inadequate in the Uruguayan context.

The Belgian Contribution to Global 1968 GERD-RAINER HORN ____Senior Lecturer in 20th Century History, Department of History – University of Warwick The calendar year of 1968 is almost universally associated with student un- rest. Belgium fits into this picture rather well, with major student mobilisa- tions in Leuven and Brussels occurring in the first half of that notoriously restless calendar year.1 Yet all-inclusive assessments of the social movements and political reconfigurations happening that year, not only in Belgium but elsewhere in Europe and North America as well, must go beyond the rela- tively narrow confines of university student milieus. For the purposes of this essay, I propose also to address fresh developments occurring within the worlds of labor and cultural productions.

Acknowledgements This master’s thesis would not have been possible without the support of a number of individuals and organizations. The Tinker Foundation and the Lozano Long Institute of Latin American Studies provided me with the financial support necessary to conduct fieldwork in Montevideo in July and August 2017. While there, a number of scholars, historians, and political activists welcomed me into their workplaces and homes, generously providing their recollections of mimeograph production in the 1960s and 1970s. In particular, I thank Francisco Sanguiñedo, Carlos Zubillaga, Jorge Voituret, Vicente Cremanti, and multiple afiliados of the PIT-CNT who allowed me to interview them. Thanks also to the tremendous team of archivists who helped me conduct my research, going out of their way to ensure I had access to the documents I needed: Mónica Pagola, Vania Markarian, and Sandra Pintos all come to mind, though many others have worked to ensure the long-term preservation of these documents.

  • Politics in Plural Societies : a Theory of Democratic Instability
    POLITICS IN PLURAL SOCIETIES A Theory of Democratic Instability ALVIN RABUSHKA University of Rochester and KENNETH A. SHEPSLE Washington University, St. Louis Charles E. Merrill Publishing Company A Bell & Howell Company Columbus, Ohio CHAPTER 5 Majority Domination We turn in this chapter to an analysis of ethnic politics in dominant major- ity configurations. A major theme that emerges from this analysis is the denial by majorities of political freedoms to minorities as well as access to a proportional share of the public sector. First we explore ethnic politics in Ceylon to illustrate how a dominant Sinhalese majority deals with an important Tamil minority; second, we extend the empirical coverage with a comparative treatment of majority domination in Northern Ireland, Cyprus, Mauritius, Rwanda, and Zanzibar (now part of Tanzania). Ceylon The most important source of division and disruption in Ceylonese politics and the greatest impediment to integrative trends has been the persistence of sentiments of identification and solidarity with broader primordial groups generally referred to as communities.1 The Sinhalese, constituting about seventy percent of the population, is the majority community in Ceylon. The remaining minorities consist of Ceylon Tamils who arrived from India between the fourth and twelfth centuries, eleven percent; Indian Tamils who arrived in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries to work on the tea estates, twelve percent; Moors 1.

  • Party Outcomes in Hybrid Regimes in the Western Balkans and Beyond
    Party Outcomes in Hybrid Regimes in the Western Balkans and Beyond By Ivan Vuković Submitted to Central European University Department of Political Science In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Supervisor: Professor Zsolt Enyedi Budapest, May 2014 Abstract Most political parties that had been ruling in hybrid regimes lost power as these regimes ceased to exist i.e. democratized. Yet, some of these parties remained politically dominant notwithstanding the regime change. This PhD thesis aims to offer a plausible explanation of their different political fates (here defined as party outcomes). Its main focus is on the incumbent parties in hybrid regimes that existed in Serbia, Croatia, and Montenegro during the last decade of the 20th century. In addition, the thesis looks at a larger population of similar cases with the ambition to contribute to a better general understanding of the diverging party outcomes. The thesis puts forward a theoretically innovative model explaining the party outcomes, founded upon the two assumptions: (1) the diverging fates of dominant parties in hybrid regimes are determined by these parties’ (lack of) institutionalization; (2) (the lack of) their institutionalization is determined by the salience of the national question in the process of political mobilization leading to the regime establishment. Process tracing method is employed to test the presence in the three cases under observation of the thus constructed causal mechanism linking the hypothesized conditions (nationalist mobilization and the lack of party institutionalization) and party outcome (the loss of power). The theoretical relevance of the results of the analysis, supported by numerous causal process observations (including, among others, 27 in-depth interviews), is subsequently assessed within a broader empirical domain.
