Anderson and Anderson
Australian Folklore 32, 2017 125 Conflicting Identities and the Search for the Post-Colonial State in New Caledonia1 Alan B. Anderson and Kjell Anderson2 ABSTRACT: Through an extensive historical review and political analysis, the authors emphasize that in the search for the post-colonial state in New Caledonia, there have been three conflicting views of national identity: the ethnonationalism of the indigenous Melanesian Kanaks, the perpetuation, yet reinterpretation, of French colonialism, and, increasingly, a more accommodating pluralistic view. An updated demographic profile indicates that no one particular ethnic category is predominant; New Caledonia is clearly multicultural, although politics have focused around bipolar competition between the colonial French and the indigenous Kanaks. In pondering the future of New Caledonia, the authors conclude that both indigenous ethnonationalism and French neo-colonialism could in fact be accommodated within a pluralistic model; an effective pluralism policy can be formulated and promulgated, moving New Caledonia more purposefully towards full independence. KEYWORDS: New Caledonia; Nouvelle Calédonie; Ethnic Conflict; Ethnic Relations; Kanak; Indigenous Nationalism; French Colonialism; Colonialism; Nationalism Introduction National identity in the South Pacific island state of New Caledonia (Nouvelle Calédonie) has evolved into three distinct forms. First, the ethnonationalism of the indigenous Kanak population is aimed at establishing a completely independent state with Kanak culture and identity central to national identity. Thus Kanaky (Kanaké) would become a fifth independent Melanesian state; Kanak cultural symbolism would become national symbolism; and Kanak languages would be regarded as equivalent to French.3 Second, French neo-colonialism is opposed to complete independence, although it may assume movement toward partial 1 This article has been revised and updated from an earlier co-authored article: ‘Nationalism in New Caledonia’, Canadian Review of Studies in Nationalism, Fall 2004, pp. -

Works Cited Berry 1 Preface: This is a study about a particular expression of Asatru otherwise known as Odinism. This is a neo-Pagan revival of ancient Norse traditions drawn primarily from the Eddas and Sagas. What is important to mention before reading this study, as I was reminded by a Pagan I met at a recent conference, is that not all people who follow this path of expression are racially motivated or oriented. This is a particularly sensitive point for many Pagans who are already a religious minority. The concern she had was that Pagans may face further discrimination if people see them as racists. The differentiation between racialist and non--racialist Odinists will be expressed in the body of the paper. -

Book Reviews The Rampaging Herd: a Bibliography of Books and Pam phlets on Men and Events in the Cattle Industry. By Ramon F. Adams. Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 1959. Pp. xix, 463. $15.00. "Like all bibliographies, this one is far from complete," so the author states. Among items omitted are books on cow boy songs, poetry, dairying, cattle diseases, breeding "and such subjects" except that the last two categories have a few representative items. All states west of the Mississippi River have listings except Louisiana, Iowa and Minnesota -Arkansas has one. During the years of labor on this publication, the author traveled from coast to coast visiting libraries and book shops, but he does not mention any depositories in the northern Plains states, the Pacific Northwest, Nevada, Utah and New Mexico. The Arizona listings include reports of Territorial gover nors from 1881 to 1911 with few exceptions, but none are listed for Colorado or Montana and only one for New Mexico. n may be that those for Arizona are important in the annals of the cattle history, but surely there is comparable informa tion in similar reports for other territories that had a sig nificant part of the range cattle industry. -
We Come in Peace (Not Really)
We Come in Peace (not really) - Quetzalocatl, conquistadors, Francisco Pizarro, Hernando Cortes We Come in Peace (not really) Quetzalocatl, conquistadors, Francisco Pizarro, Hernando Cortes Age of Exploration Unit Imagine a giant spaceship landing in front of you. A ladder drops down to your feet and an alien climbs out. The alien looks. Its skin is bright purple and you cannot understand anything it says. It seems to be smiling though . It points to a tree. Does it want the tree? The tree isn't yours so you're not sure what to say. More aliens climb out of the ship. Why are they here? Do they want war? Do they want peace? Do they just want trees? If you give them a tree, will they then try to take over the whole planet with their technology? Do you trust any of the stories you've heard about aliens? And if so, which ones? What are you supposed to do? Before you choose, let me tell you two stories about early Americans. Two different empires in Central and South America welcomed people who would bring about the end of their civilization. They welcomed with open arms the people who destroyed them. Why would anyone do that, you ask? Like you, the native people who lived in these places had heard stories. Even though they had never seen an alien . I mean, a white man . they had still heard stories about them. They also heard of a god who would come to their shores and change the world. Quetzalcoatl is the name of a Mesoamerican god known as a serpent with feathers, who was said to show up at a very specific time on the calendar. -
American Animals, American Men: Popular Literature from 1830 to 1915
AMERICAN ANIMALS, AMERICAN MEN: POPULAR LITERATURE FROM 1830 TO 1915 A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Stephen D. Kelly December 2020 Examining Committee Members: Miles Orvell, Advisory Chair, English James Salazar, English Talissa Ford, English Matt Wray, External Member, Sociology ii © Copyright 2020 by Stephen D. Kelly All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Critics of animal rights often deride the movement’s proponents for having a sentimental, juvenile misconception of what animals really are, an argument bolstered by the fact that few twenty-first-century Americans besides those engaged in the industries of animal exploitation have any prolonged contact with real animals other than their pets. Until the first decades of the twentieth century, however, American cities teemed with diverse animal residents and workers, and a rapidly increasing percentage of humans grew in their conviction that these animal neighbors should be extended considerations and rights. Shifting ideas about these animals’ roles within United States society were captured in a number of new bestselling literary genres centered around “realistic” depictions of animal characters. Because animals are often conceptualized as a “contrast class” to humanity—a fundamental “Other” by which humans establish what qualities make themselves distinct and (typically) superior—analyzing these texts and their circulation within nineteenth- century culture reveals how Americans understood authority and systems of governance, and in particular how they modeled an ideal American manhood nourished by animal bodies. What forms of exploitation and control were permissible in a man’s treatment of his animals often reflected other power dynamics within society, and so these texts also provide insight into issues of class, race, and gender. -
Plumed Serpent Ancient Bearded Gods of the Americas Brien Foerster 2016 Cover Art by Marcia K
Plumed Serpent Ancient Bearded Gods Of The Americas Brien Foerster 2016 Cover art by Marcia K. Moore Contemporary depiction of Quetzalcoatl 1/ Introduction Based on 16th-century accounts of the Spanish conquistadors being "greeted as gods" by the peoples of the New World, certain modern authors have expanded the concept beyond what is historically verifiable, spreading it to the genre of pseudo archaeological literature and fringe theorists, such as writers on ancient astronauts or Atlantis, in some instances (such as Christian Identity) even acquiring quasi-religious or racialist (white supremacist) connotations. It is claimed by some authors that white missionaries or "gods" visited America before Christopher Columbus. Authors usually quote from mythology and legends which discuss ancient gods such as the Mexican Aztec’s Quetzalcoatl to conclude that the legends were actually based on Caucasians visiting those areas, and that the Caucasians were really the gods. (1) Spanish chroniclers from the 16th century claimed that when the conquistadors led by Francisco Pizarro first encountered the Inca they were greeted as gods, "Viracochas", because their lighter skin resembled their God Viracocha. This story was first reported by Pedro Cieza de León (1553) and later by Pedro Sarmiento de Gamboa. Similar accounts by Spanish chroniclers (e.g. Juan de Betanzos) describe Viracocha as a "White God", often with a beard. However, whether the Inca in fact believed this, or the story was simply made up by the Spanish themselves is uncertain. (2) Writer Rupert Furneaux also linked "White gods" to the ancient city of Tiahuanaco on the altiplano of Bolivia (3), believed by most academics to be a maximum of 2000 years old, and created by the Tiwanaku culture. -
Magical Realism As Literary Activism in the Post-Cold War US Ethnic Novel
Momentary Magic: Magical Realism as Literary Activism in the Post-Cold War US Ethnic Novel Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University BY Anne Mai Yee Jansen M.A., M.Ed., B.A. Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Chadwick Allen, Advisor Pranav Jani Martin Joseph Ponce Copyright by Anne Mai Yee Jansen 2013 Abstract In the aftermath of the Cold War, the social climate was largely hostile toward minority activist rhetoric. In this era, some US writers of color turned to magical realism – a genre typically associated with Latin American authors of the 1960s – to criticize social injustice through the use of magic. Magical realism interrogates historical and social conditions through supernatural, mythical, or other non-realist characters and events. In many otherwise realist novels by US writers of color, moments of magic disrupt concepts of “reality” and complicate social and political inequalities. My comparative study investigates the intersections of magic, politics, and activism in magical realist novels by African American, Asian American, Chicano/Latino, and Native American authors by organizing the chapters around four recurrent themes: history, haunting, folklore, and shifting borders. This project explores how alternative visions of empowerment and engagement open up space within which writers of color can work against oppressive forces of racism and imperialism. I begin by tracing the genealogy of the term “magical realism,” acknowledging the problems inherent in this term before turning to the genre’s foundation in postcolonial nations and its historical use as a vehicle for anti-imperialist critiques. -
