Exploring the Role of Epistemic Communities in Nuclear Non-Proliferation Outcomes
Politics & The Bomb: Exploring the Role of Epistemic Communities in Nuclear Non-Proliferation Outcomes. Sara Zahra Kutchesfahani UCL Department of Political Science Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science October 2010 DECLARATION I, Sara Zahra Kutchesfahani, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Sara Zahra Kutchesfahani ii ABSTRACT The role of epistemic communities in influencing policy formulation is underexplored in International Relations theory in general and in nuclear non-proliferation studies in particular. This thesis explores how epistemic communities – groups of experts knowledgeable in niche issue areas – have affected nuclear non-proliferation policy formulation in two important and under-studied cases: the Brazilian-Argentine Agency for Accounting and Control of Nuclear Materials (ABACC) and the Nunn-Lugar Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) Program. It demonstrates that applying an epistemic community approach provides explanatory power heretofore lacking in explanations of these cases’ origins. The thesis applies the epistemic community framework to non-proliferation, using Haas’ (1992) seminal exploration of epistemic communities in the context of natural scientific and environmental policies. Specifically, it analyses the creation and successful implementation of ABACC and the CTR Program, which, respectively, verified the non-nuclear weapon status of Argentina and Brazil and facilitated the denuclearisation of Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Ukraine. These cooperative nuclear non- proliferation agreements are shown to be the result of a process involving substantial input and direction from experts constituting epistemic communities. The thesis explores the differences in the emergence, composition, and influence mechanisms of the epistemic communities behind ABACC and the CTR Program. -

Title of Thesis/Project/Extended Essay Author: -. - rJ (date) -.-.--ABSTRACT This thesis is designed to explain, through political and historical analysis, a phenomenon identified by scholars of pol- itical development as the "Argentine Problem". Argentina is seen as a paradox, a nation which does not display the political stab- ility commensurate with its level of socio-economic development. The work also seeks to examine the origins and policies of the most serious manifestation of dictatorial rule in the nation's history, the period of military power from 1976 to 1983. -

Falkland Islands War: Diplomatic Failure in April 1982
The Falkland Islands War: Diplomatic Failure in April 1982 By Joseph Mauro Wake Forest University The fate of over 1,000 souls was decided in April 1982. On April 2, Argentine Special Forces invaded and occupied the British Falkland Islands. For the next month, Britain and Argentina tried to resolve the conflict diplomatically. United States Secretary of State Alexander Haig served as mediator, shuttling multiple times between London and Buenos Aires. Haig and his team tried to develop a document to which both the Argentine military junta, led by President Leopoldo Galtieri, and British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher could agree. However, despite long hours in negotiations and a genuine desire of both sides to avoid war, agreement was never reached. The British counterattacked on May 1, and the fighting that resulted saw 1,054 soldiers and seamen die.1 Diplomacy in the Falkland Islands failed for a number of reasons. First, the negotiations were flawed, both in Haig’s uneasy position as mediator and the junta’s unreliable decision- making process. In addition, each side misunderstood the other. The Argentines never believed the British would counterattack and the British struggled to believe that Argentina wanted a peaceful solution. The possibility of oil under the islands also may have played a role. However, the most important impediment to diplomatic success was the fact that neither side was able to compromise enough to prevent war. The main reasons for this inflexibility were two-fold: both leaders needed to appear strong to remain in power, and the political climate at the time, especially in terms of diplomatic principles relating to the Cold War, prevented the British from yielding to the minimum Argentine demands. -
Constructing and Contesting the Echo Chamber: a Study of Print Media Discourse on the Final Year of the 1976-1983 Dictatorship in Argentina
Constructing and contesting the echo chamber: A study of print media discourse on the final year of the 1976-1983 dictatorship in Argentina Muireann Prendergast This thesis is submitted in part fulfilment of the academic requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisors: Professor Helen Kelly-Holmes Dr. David Atkinson Submitted to the University of Limerick, September 2018 i External Examiner: Prof. Michał Krzyżanowski, University of Liverpool and University of Örebro Internal Examiner: Dr. Cinta Ramblado, University of Limerick ii ABSTRACT For post-dictatorship countries attempting to come to terms with and understand their past, historical media studies have a particularly important role to play. In identifying discursive strategies, objective and subjective versions of events, and key social actors, they not only contribute to the linguistic debate on how "meaning" is produced in media but can have wider implications at the societal level in the construction of "collective memory" and identity (Achugar, 2007). The 1982-1983 period marked the end of a brutal dictatorship, Argentina’s Proceso de Reorganización Nacional (National Reorganization Process) and a difficult period of transition to democracy for the country following defeat in the 1982 Falklands/Malvinas War. Using a Critical Discourse Analysis framework, this research project analyses the role of the print media in both sustaining and challenging the dictatorship in Argentina during its period of crisis. The methodological approach of this study is mixed, combining the qualitative principles of the Discourse-Historical Approach (DHA) (Reisigl and Wodak, 2009) with a quantitative corpus-assisted discourse analysis of newspapers that supported the regime. Furthermore, a Synchronic-Diachronic method developed by Argentinean linguist Pardo (2008, 2010) for specific application to her country’s media is employed for qualitative study of newspaper discourse opposing the dictatorship, while a multimodal analytical framework is applied to the political cartoons of the period. -
La Descomposición Del Poder Militar En La Argentina. Las Fuerzas Armadas Durante Las Presidencias De Galtieri, Bignone Y Alfonsín (1981-1987)∗
La descomposición del poder militar en la Argentina. Las Fuerzas Armadas durante las presidencias de Galtieri, Bignone y Alfonsín (1981-1987)∗ Paula Canelo No existen en la historia de los hombres paréntesis inexplicables. Y es precisamente en los períodos de “excepción”, en esos momentos molestos y desagradables que las sociedades pretenden olvidar, colocar entre paréntesis, donde aparecen sin mediaciones ni atenuantes, los secretos y las vergüenzas del poder cotidiano. Pilar Calveiro (1998) Introducción La normalidad nada prueba, la excepción, todo. Es en los períodos de crisis de las pautas normales de desenvolvimiento de las sociedades donde es posible encontrar los fundamentos mismos de la normalidad; es allí, en los momentos donde el poder tambalea, donde se revelan los criterios “normales” del ejercicio del poder. La última dictadura militar, autodenominada “Proceso de Reorganización Nacional” constituyó, en efecto, un momento de excepción y de quiebre en el devenir histórico de la sociedad argentina. Durante su período de máximo poderío, el correspondiente a la primera presidencia del general Videla (1976-1978), el régimen logró concretar gran parte de sus objetivos refundacionales mediante la implementación del terrorismo estatal y de la política económica del ministro Martínez de Hoz. Sostenida por un férreo aislamiento de la misma sociedad sobre la que implementaba la política represiva más devastadora de la historia argentina, y cohesionada tras la construcción de un enemigo “subversivo” omnipresente, la alianza cívico-militar que llevó adelante el proyecto dictatorial avanzó significativamente en la desarticulación de la sociedad de posguerra. Sin embargo, lejos de conformar un todo monolítico, la contradictoria alianza entre militares y civiles liberales comenzó a demostrar síntomas de agotamiento a poco de andar. -

Proof Copy Pablo Miguel Jacovkis Introduction Argentina has a long tradition of conflicts between scientific development2 (or educational development) and authoritarian governments.3 Between 1835 and 1852, although he was only Governor of the Buenos Aires Province and responsible for Argentinian Foreign Affairs – that is, a sort of primus inter pares amongst the other thirteen governors – General Juan Manuel de Rosas ruled the country with an iron fist. Among his obscurantist measures we may mention that he stopped paying salaries to the professors at the University of Buenos Aires – the salaries having to be paid exclusively through the tuition of the students, see Buchbinder (2005). The simplified image is reasonably true, that from the establishment of the constitutional republic between 1852 and 1862, education and support for science flourished. We can mention the outstanding work of President Sarmiento (1868–74), who, besides strongly backing 1 The author thanks Amparo Gómez for her kind invitation to participate in the IV Seminar of Politics of Science: Science between Democracy and Dictatorship at the Universidad de La Laguna and to the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation for its economic support through the Research Project FFI2009–09483 and the Complementary Action FFI2010–11969–E.
