  • 1 Impressions from the Rock of Gibraltar
    IMPRESSIONS FROM THE ROCK OF GIBRALTAR: THE JOURNAL OF A TRAVELLING TEACHER (AUGUST 29-DECEMBER 3, 2009) J.A. McLean 2010 Good to Go: August 20, 2009 Within only nine days left before departure, things have fallen into place for Gibraltar. Janet Waterfield, a kind friend of English Bahá’í, Ann Dymond, informed me by telephone that she has a flat available to rent at 503 Neptune House, Marina Bay. The good news is that the flat is available for the whole three months duration of my stay. Janet recently made the acquaintance of senior believer, Ann, who was the first Bahá’í who came to Gibraltar in Holy Year 1992, the centenary of Bahá’u’lláh’s ascension. I have never been to that small, densely populated (7 square kilometres) overseas territory of Great Britain, but I understand that Marina Bay is a fine, central location. Sam Benoit, a recent university graduate and son of old friends, Wendy James and Bernard Benoit, is going to sublet my furnished apartment. This will be a great help since I won’t have to carry two rents at the same time Any pioneer or travel-teacher should not forget that serving the Faith, although it brings confirmations and rewards, can also bring tests and difficulties. They are a built-in component of service. I suppose that if Bahá’u’lláh did not find that His believers had the capacity for spiritual growth and service, He would not put us to the test at all. But as ‘Abdu’l-Bahá has written, these tests prove to be either stumbling-blocks or stepping-stones, just as we make them.

  • How Has Gibraltar's Position Within Britain's Military Structure Impacted
    STUDENT PAPER SERIES39 How has Gibraltar’s position within Britain’s military structure impacted on the role of women in Gibraltar Society? Shelina Assomull Master’s in International Relations Academic year 2016-2017 ABSTRACT The military base is an intrinsic part of a country’s worldwide presence and power made necessary by the anarchistic international system. Gibraltar is a remnant of Britain’s global footprint. The fact that Gibraltar initially acted as a military base makes assessing the base’s position and impact on Gibraltar essential in analysing Gibraltarian gender relations. This dissertation aims to understand this, using feminist theory. To do so, I will firstly focus on the feminist theorising of military bases presented by Cynthia Enloe’s Bananas, Beaches and Bases. I will then examine Gibraltar’s similarities to the ‘base women’ Enloe examines. This will encompass prostitution, marriage, nationality, employment status and other themes in Gibraltar that draw parallels with Enloe’s theory: The base always comes first. This is particularly true to Gibraltar between the late nineteenth to mid-twentieth century. Part two will build on this by exploring a unique three-way nexus of identity. This nexus encompasses three relationships that intertwine in a way that is unique to Gibraltar. These relationships are; the interaction and tensions between the military and the civilian, the class divide between British and Alien, and at the heart of all these relationships remains a core divide in them all which is that of masculine and feminine. This will demonstrate that although Gibraltar once matched the Enloe base, the territory’s history has developed towards the late twentieth century, maintaining aspects of base life but still evolving its societal dynamics and feminist exterior, resulting in a shift of gender identities today.
