  • In Galicia, Spain (1860-1936)
    Finisterra, XXXIII, 65, 1998, pp. 117-128 SUBSTATE NATION-BUILDING AND GEOGRAPHICAL REPRESENTATIONS OF ‘THE OTHER’ IN GALICIA, SPAIN (1860-1936) JACOBO GARCÍA -ÁLVAREZ 1 Abstract: The ‘social construction’ of otherness and, broadly speaking, the ideological-political use of ‘external’ socio-spatial referents have become important topics in contemporary studies on territorial identities, nationalisms and nation-building processes, geography included. After some brief, introductory theoretical reflections, this paper examines the contribution of geographical discourses, arguments and images, sensu lato , in the definition of the external socio-spatial identity referents of Galician nationalism in Spain, during the period 1860-1936. In this discourse Castile was typically represented as ‘the other’ (the negative, opposition referent), against which Galician identity was mobilised, whereas Portugal, on the one hand, together with Ireland and the so-called ‘Atlantic-Celtic nationalities’, on the other hand, were positively constructed as integrative and emulation referents. Key-words : Nationalism, nation-building, socio-spatial identities, external territorial referents, otherness, Spain, Galicia, Risco, Otero Pedrayo, Portugal, Atlantism, pan-Celtism.

DIEGO MURO King’s College London ALEJANDRO QUIROGA London School of Economics ABSTRACT In recent years, it has been a common complaint among scholars to acknowledge the lack of research on Spanish nationalism. This article addresses the gap by giving an historical overview of ‘ethnic’ and ‘civic’ Spanish nationalist discourses during the last two centuries. It is argued here that Spanish nationalism is not a unified ideology but it has, at least, two varieties. During the 19th-century, both a ‘liberal’ and a ‘conservative-traditionalist’ nationalist discourse were formu- lated and these competed against each other for hegemony within the Spanish market of ideas.

  • Memorial Struggles and Power Strategies of the Rights in Latin America Today
    http://doi.org/10.17163/uni.n31.2019.01 Memorial struggles and power strategies of the rights in Latin America today Luchas memoriales y estrategias de poder de las derechas en América Latina hoy Verónica Giordano Teacher and Researcher UBA and CONICET [email protected] Orcid code: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7299-6984 Gina Paola Rodríguez Teacher and Researcher UNLPam and UBA [email protected] Orcid code: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-1702-3386 Abstract Recently, right-wing forces of different origins and types have sprung up in Latin America. In this article, four countries are studied: Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Peru. The first two correspond to cases in which the right-wing groups stand in opposition to the so-called progressive governments. The other two correspond to cases in which they stand in a political system with a strong continuity of predominance of right-wing forces. Since there are few studies with an overall perspective, this article seeks to make a contribution in that direction. The objective is to analyze the non-electoral strategies of construction and/ or exercise of power implemented by the right-wing groups around the memorial struggles. Based on the review of journalistic sources and speeches of the national right-wing referents, this article analyzes how current right-wing groups have proceeded to the institution of languages and the definition of a field of meanings that dispute the meaning of the recent past. From a comparative perspective, it is argued that in all four cases negationism offers an effective repertoire for these groups, which is used in their non- electoral (as well as electoral) strategies for building hegemony at the cultural level.

  • Travelling in Bangalore, South India, in the Summer of 2004 I Am Struck by the Billboards for American and British Products
    Intercultural Communication Studies XIV-3 2005 D’Silva Globalization, Religious Strife, and the Media in India Margaret Usha D’Silva University of Louisville Abstract Participating in the global market has changed not only India’s economy but also its culture. Perhaps as a reaction to Westernization and Christian missionary work, a fundamentalist Hindu movement called the Hindutva movement has gained popularity in India. The cultural movement became strong enough to allow its political front electoral victory in the 1999 elections. This essay examines the Hindutva movement’s fundamentalist character in the context of recent transformations in postcolonial India. Introduction Upon visiting Bangalore, a city of some six million people in South India, in the summer of 2004, I was struck by the billboards for Western products. Pizza Hut, Cadbury’s, and others advertised their products alongside Tata and Vimal. On the streets, white faces mingled with brown ones. East Asian, European, and Slavic conversations created new sounds with the cadence and accents of Indian languages. Food vendors offered vegetable burgers alongside samosas. The signs of globalization were dominant in this city. In other parts of India, the signs were not as prominent. However, globalization was the buzzword used by businessmen, politicians, and intellectuals to partly explain the rapidly changing face of India. Participating in the global economic market has had other consequences for this country of a billion people. The cultural fabric has experienced constant wear and tear as Western modes of behavior and work were gradually incorporated into everyday life. This essay examines the changes and situates the growth of the fundamentalist movement in the context of transformations in post-colonial India.

  • The Case of Croatian Wikipedia: Encyclopaedia of Knowledge Or Encyclopaedia for the Nation?
    The Case of Croatian Wikipedia: Encyclopaedia of Knowledge or Encyclopaedia for the Nation? 1 Authorial statement: This report represents the evaluation of the Croatian disinformation case by an external expert on the subject matter, who after conducting a thorough analysis of the Croatian community setting, provides three recommendations to address the ongoing challenges. The views and opinions expressed in this report are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the Wikimedia Foundation. The Wikimedia Foundation is publishing the report for transparency. Executive Summary Croatian Wikipedia (Hr.WP) has been struggling with content and conduct-related challenges, causing repeated concerns in the global volunteer community for more than a decade. With support of the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees, the Foundation retained an external expert to evaluate the challenges faced by the project. The evaluation, conducted between February and May 2021, sought to assess whether there have been organized attempts to introduce disinformation into Croatian Wikipedia and whether the project has been captured by ideologically driven users who are structurally misaligned with Wikipedia’s five pillars guiding the traditional editorial project setup of the Wikipedia projects. Croatian Wikipedia represents the Croatian standard variant of the Serbo-Croatian language. Unlike other pluricentric Wikipedia language projects, such as English, French, German, and Spanish, Serbo-Croatian Wikipedia’s community was split up into Croatian, Bosnian, Serbian, and the original Serbo-Croatian wikis starting in 2003. The report concludes that this structure enabled local language communities to sort by points of view on each project, often falling along political party lines in the respective regions.

The paper argues for communalism to be conceptualized as a discourse and understand how knowledge regarding communal issues are produced. The research would deal with Hindu Communalism led by the Sangh Parivar in the case of Gujarat. The Sangh Parivar is led by Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), and its affiliated organizations include the Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP), Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP), Bajrang Dal, and Rashtriyasevika Samiti. It has “sustained the ideological propaganda against minority communities remaining subservient to the Hindu Rashtra” (Puniyani 2003: 21). This paper uses Foucault’s power/knowledge framework to understand how Sangh Parivar, also called the Sangh, used Symbols, Ideologies, Institutions, and Identities during the riots in Gujarat. By using the four concepts the paper will seek answers to one, how the Sangh managed to mobilize people on lines of religion. Two, how the Sangh prevents other political movements, other than on lines of religion from becoming more dominant.
