  • 1 the TROUBLE with ARISTOCRACY Hans Van
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by UCL Discovery 1 THE TROUBLE WITH ARISTOCRACY Hans van Wees and Nick Fisher ‘The history of aristocracies … is littered with self-serving myths which outsiders have been surprisingly willing to accept uncritically’, a recent study warns (Doyle 2010, xv). Our volume shows that ancient ‘aristocracies’ and their modern students are no exception. In antiquity, upper classes commonly claimed that they had inherited, or ought to have inherited, their status, privilege and power because their families excelled in personal virtues such as generosity, hospitality and military prowess while abstaining from ignoble ‘money-making’ pursuits such as commerce or manual labour. In modern scholarship, these claims are often translated into a belief that a hereditary ‘aristocratic’ class is identifiable at most times and places in the ancient world, whether or not it is in actually in power as an oligarchy, and that deep ideological divisions existed between ‘aristocratic values’ and the norms and ideals of lower or ‘middling’ classes. Such ancient claims and modern interpretations are pervasively questioned in this volume.1 We suggest that ‘aristocracy’ is only rarely a helpful concept for the analysis of political struggles and historical developments or of ideological divisions and contested discourses in literary and material cultures in the ancient world. Moreover, we argue that a serious study of these subjects requires close analysis of the nature of social inequality in any given time and place, rather than broad generalizations about aristocracies or indeed other elites and their putative ideologies.

Without Dr. T., Eric, Jay, and Maryanne, my academic career would have never begun and I will forever be grateful for the opportunities they gave me. At Michigan, guidance in negotiating the administrative side of the PhD given by Kathleen and Michelle has been invaluable, and I have treasured the conversations I have had with them and Terre, Diana, and Molly about gardening and travelling. The network of gardeners at Project Grow has provided me with hundreds of hours of joy and a respite from the stress of the academy. I owe many thanks to my fellow graduate students, not only for attending the brown bags and Three Field Talks I gave that helped shape this project, but also for their astute feedback, wonderful camaraderie, and constant support over our many years together.

  • How a Democracy Becomes an Aristocracy
    Academic rigour, journalistic flair What’s in a name? How a democracy becomes an aristocracy October 7, 2016 2.23pm AEDT What do you call a democracy that depends on the exclusion of whole groups from political participation? Gaia/Wikipedia Commons, CC BY-SA This article is part of the Democracy Futures series, a joint global initiative with the Author Sydney Democracy Network. The project aims to stimulate fresh thinking about the many challenges facing democracies in the 21st century. Sandra Field Assistant Professor of Humanities (Philosophy), Yale-NUS College Is there something about the deep logic of democracy that destines it to succeed in the world? Democ- racy, the form of politics that includes everyone as equals – does it perhaps suit human nature better than the alternatives? After all, surely any person who is excluded from the decision-making in a society will be more liable to rise up against it. From ancient thinkers like Seneca to contemporary thinkers like Francis Fukuyama, we can see some version of this line of thought. Seneca thought that tyrannies could never last long; Fukuyama famously argued that liberal democracy is the end of history. I want to focus instead on the person credited with giving the most direct and uncompromising state- ment of this thought: Benedict de Spinoza. For centuries, “democracy” was a term of abuse, understood as a dangerous form of mob rule. Spinoza was one of the first in the history of modern political thought to celebrate democracy. Living in the 17th-century Dutch Republic, amid political turmoil in his own country, and witnessing the disorders across the channel in England, Spinoza was intensely interested in the concrete, material basis for peace.

Linden, Professor, Department of Political Science Ilya Prizel, Professor, Department of Political Science Dissertation Advisor: Jonathan Harris, Professor, Department of Political Science ii Copyright © by Thomas Marshall Twiss 2009 iii TROTSKY AND THE PROBLEM OF SOVIET BUREAUCRACY Thomas Marshall Twiss, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2009 In 1917 the Bolsheviks anticipated, on the basis of the Marxist classics, that the proletarian revolution would put an end to bureaucracy. However, soon after the revolution many within the Bolshevik Party, including Trotsky, were denouncing Soviet bureaucracy as a persistent problem. In fact, for Trotsky the problem of Soviet bureaucracy became the central political and theoretical issue that preoccupied him for the remainder of his life. This study examines the development of Leon Trotsky’s views on that subject from the first years after the Russian Revolution through the completion of his work The Revolution Betrayed in 1936. In his various writings over these years Trotsky expressed three main understandings of the nature of the problem: During the civil war and the first years of NEP he denounced inefficiency in the distribution of supplies to the Red Army and resources throughout the economy as a whole.

  • The Intellectual Aristocracy of the German Nation
    Dueling Students: Conflict, Masculinity, and Politics in German Universities, 1890-1914 Lisa Fetheringill Zwicker The University of Michigan Press, 2011 http://press.umich.edu/titleDetailDesc.do?id=2665215 Chapter 1 Students: The Intellectual Aristocracy of the German Nation In Germany, the academically educated, as a body, constitute a kind of intellectual aristocracy. Those that belong include theologians and teachers, judges and civil servants, doctors and engineers, in short all who through their courses at the universities have received entry into the learned or the leading professions. On the whole, the members of these professions make up a homogenous social stratum and acknowl- edge each other as socially equal on the basis of their academic education. —Friedrich Paulsen, Professor of Philosophy, Berlin1 Young, colorfully costumed men marching in parades, long lines of schol- ars in libraries assimilating the works of Germany’s cultural heroes, dash- ing fraternity men defending their honor with swords—these are a few of the images that the word student would call up in the imagination of many nineteenth-century Germans. The pageantry of student fraternities and grand university ceremonies allowed them a role in dramatic public events rivaled only by military parades. The life of full freedom, thought essential to the student experience, was a special period without requirements or du- ties. Such a life without daily obligations was allowed to almost no other group within German society, even small children. The noble pursuit of Bildung, a concept with connections both to personal development and to national culture, allowed many Germans to see students as the embodi- ment of the nation.

So laudable an enterprise must be left to others. Here we seek only to consider a few obvious implications. In this section we make some contrasts with the concurrent employment changes in the United Kingdom—that colonial power once dominating this country, our competitor in third country markets, and perhaps our closest ally (Table 3). To do so we telescope our history into five periods. 1840—60 From the late 1830's, with Jackson's frigid treatment of joyous entre- preneurial expectations in banking, down to the eve of the Civil War, the United States decisively expanded its home market, while the United Kingdom extended its outward markets even more than those at home. The 60 per cent rise in U.S. farm employment was twice the rate of gain for the U.K.

  • The Irony of Populism: the Republican Shift and the Inevitability of American Aristocracy
    THE IRONY OF POPULISM: THE REPUBLICAN SHIFT AND THE INEVITABILITY OF AMERICAN ARISTOCRACY Zvi S. Rosen* I. INTRODUCTION Clause 1. The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, elected by the people thereof, for six years; and each Senator shall have one vote. The electors in each State shall have the qualifications requisite for electors of the most numerous branch of the State legislatures.1 On April 8, 1913, the populist dream of true mass democracy came to pass with the ratification of the Seventeenth Amendment.2 The undemocratic Senate, relic of the attempt to produce a republican system of mixed government, had faded into the realm of historical trivia, to be replaced with the modern elected senate. From this point forward, all three forms of government contained within our mixed government would be popularly elected,3 and America had undergone its transformation from a democratic republic to a democracy with scattered bits of republicanism. However, this is not what actually happened. The republican system around which the Constitution is built withstood the modification of the Seventeenth Amendment, and the system of mixed government endures to this day. Rather, what the Seventeenth Amendment achieved was merely the diminution of the Senate.4 The aristocratic component of the government, which the Framers thought so important, found a new home in the federal judiciary, where it resides to this day. As the courts * Mr. Rosen is currently pursuing his LL.M. in Intellectual Property Law at the George Washington University. Prior to this the author completed his J.D.

  • Roman History the LEGENDARY PERIOD of the KINGS (753
    Roman History THE LEGENDARY PERIOD OF THE KINGS (753 - 510 B.C.) Rome was said to have been founded by Latin colonists from Alba Longa, a nearby city in ancient Latium. The legendary date of the founding was 753 B.C.; it was ascribed to Romulus and Remus, the twin sons of the daughter of the king of Alba Longa. Later legend carried the ancestry of the Romans back to the Trojans and their leader Aeneas, whose son Ascanius, or Iulus, was the founder and first king of Alba Longa. The tales concerning Romulus’s rule, notably the rape of the Sabine women and the war with the Sabines, point to an early infiltration of Sabine peoples or to a union of Latin and Sabine elements at the beginning. The three tribes that appear in the legend of Romulus as the parts of the new commonwealth suggest that Rome arose from the amalgamation of three stocks, thought to be Latin, Sabine, and Etruscan. The seven kings of the regal period begin with Romulus, from 753 to 715 B.C.; Lucius Tarquinius Superbus, from 534 to 510 B.C., the seventh and last king, whose tyrannical rule was overthrown when his son ravished Lucretia, the wife of a kinsman. Tarquinius was banished, and attempts by Etruscan or Latin cities to reinstate him on the throne at Rome were unavailing. Although the names, dates, and events of the regal period are considered as belonging to the realm of fiction and myth rather than to that of factual history, certain facts seem well attested: the existence of an early rule by kings; the growth of the city and its struggles with neighboring peoples; the conquest of Rome by Etruria and the establishment of a dynasty of Etruscan princes, symbolized by the rule of the Tarquins; the overthrow of this alien control; and the abolition of the kingship.

While slavery never completely disappeared fromF ancient Roman society, its position in the Roman economy shifted at the beginning of the period called Late Antiquity (14 CE–500 CE) . At this time, the slave system of the Roman world adjusted to a new category of labor . Overall, the numbers of slaves declined, an event that historian Ramsey MacMullen, drawing from legal debates and legislation of the period, attri- butes to the accumulation of debt and poverty among Roman citizens in the third century CE .

Following the end of the Persian empire, and with the disruption of the unity of Alexander’s Macedonian empire, a new political entity rose to prominence in the Mediterranean region. This was the Roman empire which became the largest and most enduring empire in antiquity. The nucleus of the empire lay in Italy and subsequently it encompassed the entire Mediterranean world. Roman expansion into the Mediterranean began soon after the break-up of the Macedonian empire. By this time the city of Rome in Italy had succeeded in bringing almost the entire Italian peninsula under its control. Rome was among the many settlements of Latin-speaking people in Italy. Latin forms part of the broad Indo-European group of languages. In the period after c.
