This context will be discussed in greater detail in chapter 2 , but it is worth remembering that this was the period that marked the passage of the USA PATRIOT Act, which limited citizens’ rights. It was also the era of the creation of the No Fly List, which occasionally targeted people who happened to have similar names to suspected terrorists, and of “extraordinary rendition,” the CIA practice of abducting suspects and transferring them to other countries for interrogation and detention. 3 .

  • Investigation Into Red-Brown Alliances
    in Madrid, to overthrow the military dictatorship in Argentine, Perónist circles during that period were an odd conjunction of far-right anf far-left tendencies. Among Perón‘s contacts in Argentina was Joe “Jose” Baxter, a mysterious Yugoslav-born Argentine who in the mid-1960s An Investigation into became the leader of the Tacuara, a paramilitary neo-fascist Red-Brown Alliances sect with long-standing ties to the Argentine secret services. When Adolf Eichmann, who had been secretly living in Ar- Third Positionism, Russia, Ukraine, Syria, and the gentina, was captured by Israeli intelligence in 1960, Tacuara Western Left members went on a spree of anti-Semitic attacks and wrote vile anti-Semitic graffiti in Buenos Aires. After Eichmann’s execu- tion, Tacuara violence erupted again and they abducted Jewish Vagabond students and carved swastikas in their flesh. Around the same time as Thiriart’s shift leftward, Baxter shifted the Tacuara sharply to the Left and, with Perón‘s support, reorganized it into Argentina’s first urban guerrilla warfare organization. Many Tacuaristas, Baxter included, visited Havana, where they were trained into guerrilla maneu- vers, and reportedly the People’s Republic of China in 1965 as well. After Baxter returned to Latin America, the core ofthe Tacuara merged with various revolutionary groups to form the Montoneros, a left-wing nationalist group whose armed struggle paved the way for Perón‘s return to Argentine in 1973. The Montoneros, believing they were on the threshold ofa social revolution, had come to greet their hero on June 20, 1973, and claim what they felt to be their rightful place next to the platform where he was scheduled to address the largest pubic rally of Argentine history.

This year’s edition of Internet & Politics, Moving People, Moving Ideas, will examine how digital technologies reshape the practice of campaigning and the movement of political information. We are bringing together an exceptional group of participants from various constituencies working at the intersection of technology and politics: campaign strategists, political activists and organizers, independent analysts, members of the media, academics, students, and more. Our goal is to meld theory, data, and practice, synthesizing diverse perspectives and experiences in order to facilitate learning and collaboration. In doing so, we will draw upon the unique expertise of the Berkman Center community, the Harvard University Institute of Politics, and the accomplished group of conference participants. Have digital information and communications tools enhanced critical elements of political strategy, such as leadership formation, community-building, and coordinated action? Are digital technologies influencing offline actions (for example, the ways campaigns contact
