    People Power: The Everyday Politics of Democratic Resistance in Burma and the Philippines Nicholas Henry A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in International Relations Victoria University of Wellington 2011 ii ... the tale he had to tell could not be one of a final victory. It could be only the record of what had had to be done, and what assuredly would have to be done again in the never ending fight against terror and its relentless onslaughts, despite their personal afflictions, by all who, while unable to be saints but refusing to bow down to pestilences, strive their utmost to be healers. Albert Camus, The Plague This thesis is dedicated to all those who, resisting the terror of state violence, continue to do what has to be done. iii Abstract How do Community Based Organisations (CBOs) in Burma and the Philippines participate in the construction of political legitimacy through their engagement in local and international politics? What can this tell us about the agency of non-state actors in international relations? This thesis explores the practices of non-state actors engaged in political resistance in Burma and the Philippines. The everyday dynamics of political legitimacy are examined in relation to popular consent, political violence, and the influence of international actors and norms. The empirical research in this thesis is based on a grounded theory analysis of in-depth semi-structured interviews with a wide cross-section of spokespeople and activists of opposition groups from Burma, and with spokespeople of opposition groups in the Philippines.

  • Homeland Fascism Today: an Introduction”
    Editor’s Preface “Homeland Fascism Today: An Introduction” Jeff Shantz There is a certain complacency, perhaps arro- gance, among commentators in the United States concerning the prospects for violent uprisings or mo- bilizations in the US. It is widely held that violent uprisings, coups, oppositional movements, will not, even cannot, emerge or take hold in the United States. America is viewed as a stable system with democratic checks and balances and a civil makeup mitigating against such dramatic eruptions in the body politic. Furthermore, truly oppositional move- ments are viewed as being too small, too marginal, or too trivial to pose a real challenge to the liberal democratic order of things in the United States. There are some recurring factors that historically appear as what might be preconditions for dramatic social upheaval and change. These are: extreme eco- nomic inequality; significant, major economic or po- litical crisis or shock, usually unexpected; a middle iii IV | HOMELAND FASCISM strata that feels threatened or is experiencing eco- nomic threats (Judson 2009, 174). Conflict can be triggered by a dramatic event such as a coup d’état, ri- ots, a terrorist attack, etc. (Judson 2009, 174). Responses to these issues are also important. Does the middle strata mobilize against specific scapegoats (migrants, minorities, unionists, etc.) or focus anger at a ruling elite? Does the government lose legitimacy or offer a believable remedy to the problems? Does it maintain legalistic means or resort to force and vio- lence? Conditions typically giving rise to upheaval are present throughout US society. Millions have lost jobs and others the prospect of finding jobs that pay a sus- tainable living wage and/or offer some financial secu- rity.

Nyine Tun resorted to seeing a traditional healer who pre- scribed herbs as treatment. “They didn’t help,” she explains. “But poor people always treat themselves with herbs.” Nyine Tun finally decided to travel to Mae Tao, hitching a ride on the back of a truck and crossing the border on an inner tube across the fast-running Moei River. While patients like Nyine Tun describe making long arduous journeys to get to Mae Tao, it is the only way many of them will ever receive any form of health care. “This clinic truly saves lives,” says Frank Brewster, a volunteering physician from Canada. “There simply is no functioning public health system in Burma.” The clinic provides free primary healthcare services on the Thai-Burma border and Dr. Cynthia Maung, a nominee for the 2004 Nobel Peace Prize, established the Mae Tao Clinic in 1989 in response to an upris- mobile clinics serving more than 17,000 Internally Displaced Persons in Burma.

  • The Origin and Development of Prison Fellowship International
    The Origin and Development of Prison Fellowship International: Pluralism, Ecumenism and American Leadership in the Evangelical World 1974-2006 Kendrick Oliver (University of Southampton) In spring 1974, as Watergate prosecutors began to issue indictments against Nixon administration aides and the US House of Representatives considered whether the President himself should be impeached, the prominent liberal writer Richard Goodwin visited Washington, DC. The mood was sombre, but even in the ‘grimmest gathering of political sophisticates,’ he noted, a laugh could still be guaranteed. One only had to refer to the religious conversion of Charles Colson, former Special Counsel to the President. Colson was widely associated with the partisan excesses of the Nixon administration and with its efforts – some of them illegal - to undermine and stigmatize any sources of opposition to the Presidential will. The Wall Street Journal had referred to him as ‘Nixon’s hatchet man’.1 As prosecutors closed in, however, Colson announced he had accepted Jesus Christ into his life. Goodwin observed that the story ‘was sure to touch off an instant competition of Buchwald- style one-liners, tinged, nevertheless, by a slight underglow of professional appreciation for what appears to me a supreme con.’2 Doubts about the authenticity of Colson’s conversion never entirely disappeared. Within a couple of years, after Colson had served a seven-month prison term, published his conversion narrative, Born Again, and established a ministry directed towards prison inmates,

  • The Family the Secret Fundamentalism at the Heart of American Power 1St Edition Pdf, Epub, Ebook
    THE FAMILY THE SECRET FUNDAMENTALISM AT THE HEART OF AMERICAN POWER 1ST EDITION PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Jeff Sharlet | 9780060560058 | | | | | The Family The Secret Fundamentalism at the Heart of American Power 1st edition PDF Book In response to a question the Bishop said and I paraphrase that certainty was not a good thing. Many readers will be shocked and dismayed at the inroads that have already been made. The questions were, where and when to begin. Be prepared to take your time accumulating all the information Sharlet has unearthed. For His pleasure, nothing else. Not here. This is a must read. What i had heard of this book and expected was the sort of conspiracy you might find in a Dan Brown novel. They can get away with it because there is nothing to tie the Family to these dictators. The Family is an important read because it exposes a form of Fundamentalism unlike any you know. The true story of fundamentalism in America and its manifestation in the halls of power today is well researched and frightening in its implications for the way things get done in certain spheres of influence. Refresh and try again. One of the reasons is that very few people even know the Family exists, not because they are secretive but simply because they do not talk about it. That was what Jesus said. Not shocking is the list of folks that have had ties to the family, lots of good Washington folk, past and present. Sharlet is disingenuous at times. I'm a contributing editor for Harper's and Rolling Stone and I also write about music for Oxford American, politics for The Nation, and media for The Revealer, a review of religion and the press published by the New York University Center for Religion and Media, where I'm an associate research scholar.
