  • Nationalism and the Collapse of Soviet Communism
    Nationalism and the Collapse of Soviet Communism MARK R. BEISSINGER Abstract This article examines the role of nationalism in the collapse of communism in the late 1980s and early 1990s, arguing that nationalism (both in its presence and its absence, and in the various conflicts and disorders that it unleashed) played an important role in structuring the way in which communism collapsed. Two institutions of international and cultural control in particular – the Warsaw Pact and ethnofederalism – played key roles in determining which communist regimes failed and which survived. The article argues that the collapse of communism was not a series of isolated, individual national stories of resistance but a set of interrelated streams of activity in which action in one context profoundly affected action in other contexts – part of a larger tide of assertions of national sovereignty that swept through the Soviet empire during this period. That nationalism should be considered among the causes of the collapse of communism is not a view shared by everyone. A number of works on the end of communism in the Soviet Union have argued, for instance, that nationalism played only a minor role in the process – that the main events took place within official institutions in Moscow and had relatively little to do with society, or that nationalism was a marginal motivation or influence on the actions of those involved in key decision-making. Failed institutions and ideologies, an economy in decline, the burden of military competition with the United States and instrumental goals of self-enrichment among the nomenklatura instead loom large in these accounts.1 In many narratives of the end of communism, nationalism is portrayed merely as a consequence of communism’s demise, as a phase after communism disintegrated – not as an autonomous or contributing force within the process of collapse itself.

  • Honoring the Truth: a Response to the Backlash
    HONORING THE TRUTH: A RESPONSE TO THE BACKLASH by ELLEN BASS and LAURA DAVIS from THE COURAGE TO HEAL: A GUIDE FOR WOMEN SURVIVORS OF CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE THIRD EDITION, 1994 published by HarperCollins “Honoring the Truth” is a response to the current backlash against adult survivors of child sexual abuse. If you’ve watched TV, listened to the radio, or read newspapers or magazines in the past two years, it’s likely that you’ve heard about the “false memory syndrome” and have witnessed attacks on survivors’ memories and credibility. It is these attacks we are responding to here. As in the rest of The Courage to Heal, we have included the experiences of survivors as well as practical self-help information. Unlike the rest of the book, however, we also incorporate here the work of therapists, researchers, and other experts—and more than a hundred footnotes—to place this backlash in a historical and political perspective.1 A number of survivors and professionals have read “Honoring the Truth.” Most appreciated having clear information and an analysis of the issues. One survivor wrote to us, “I felt a lot of the cloudiness of the issue fall away—I felt reassured and validated.” Another said, “I am not as likely to get sucked into the fear and doubt that the backlash is trying to perpetuate.” Yet this same survivor said it had been a lot harder to read than she 1 In writing The Courage to Heal, we listened to survivors of child sexual abuse and presented what we learned in a clear, practical, and respectful way.

  • Re-Thinking Masculinity: Discourses of Gender and Power in Two Workplaces
    Re-Thinking Masculinity: Discourses of Gender and Power in Two Workplaces. Matthew Shepherd Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Geography, University of Sheffield. September 1996 Re-Thinking Masculinity: Discourses of Gender and Power in Two Workplaces. Matthew Shepherd Abstract The proliferation of academic studies of men and 'masculinity' in the last twenty years has mirrored the growth of feminist studies of women and gender relations. This thesis reflects upon these theoretical developments and examines the expression of 'masculinity' amongst employees in two contrasting workplaces in Yorkshire. Adopting a Foucauldian approach, it is suggested that 'masculinity' should be analysed as a set of practices which create, maintain and reinforce inequalities between the sexes and that their achievement is situationally contingent. From this perspective, masculinity can only be understood within a framework of power, conceptualised as relational, productive and existent only in its exercise. Critical evaluation of the 'masculinity' literature demonstrates that conventional conceptualisations of 'masculinity' have produced methodological impasses, of which the most problematic is the conflation of 'masculinity' with the study of men. The thesis proposes an alternative framework which recognises that discourses of 'masculinity' relate to the words and actions of women as well as of men and that 'masculin~y' is most profitably understood as a series of discourses - transcending the scale of the individual - which set out the 'rules', expectations and conditions within which everyday gender relations take place. The empirical investigation of these ideas adopts a qualitative approach. In-depth, repeated interviews focusing upon participants' work experiences and home lives were carried out with men and women from the two workplaces - an academic department within a university and a manufacturer of metal products.

  • American Monsters: Tabloid Media and the Satanic Panic, 1970-2000
    AMERICAN MONSTERS: TABLOID MEDIA AND THE SATANIC PANIC, 1970-2000 A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Sarah A. Hughes May 2015 Examining Committee Members: Kenneth L. Kusmer, Advisory Chair, History Carolyn Kitch, Journalism Susan E. Klepp, History Elaine Tyler May, External Member, University of Minnesota, American Studies © Copyright 2015 by Sarah A. Hughes All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT “American Monsters: Tabloid Media and the Satanic Panic, 1970-2000,” analyzes an episode of national hysteria that dominated the media throughout most of the 1980s. Its origins, however, go back much farther and its consequences for the media would extend into subsequent decades. Rooted in the decade’s increasingly influential conservative political ideology, the satanic panic involved hundreds of accusations that devil-worshipping pedophiles were operating America’s white middle-class suburban daycare centers. Communities around the country became embroiled in criminal trials against center owners, the most publicized of which was the McMartin Preschool trial in Manhattan Beach, California. The longest and most expensive trial in the nation’s history, the McMartin case is an important focal point of this project. In the 1990s, judges overturned the life sentences of defendants in most major cases, and several prominent journalists and lawyers condemned the phenomenon as a witch-hunt. They accurately understood it to be a powerful delusion, or what contemporary cultural theorist Jean Baudrillard termed a “hyperreality,” in which audiences confuse the media universe for real life. Presented mainly through tabloid television, or “infotainment,” and integral to its development, influence, and success, the panic was a manifestation of the hyperreal.

  • 101 Films for Filmmakers
    101 (OR SO) FILMS FOR FILMMAKERS The purpose of this list is not to create an exhaustive list of every important film ever made or filmmaker who ever lived. That task would be impossible. The purpose is to create a succinct list of films and filmmakers that have had a major impact on filmmaking. A second purpose is to help contextualize films and filmmakers within the various film movements with which they are associated. The list is organized chronologically, with important film movements (e.g. Italian Neorealism, The French New Wave) inserted at the appropriate time. AFI (American Film Institute) Top 100 films are in blue (green if they were on the original 1998 list but were removed for the 10th anniversary list). Guidelines: 1. The majority of filmmakers will be represented by a single film (or two), often their first or first significant one. This does not mean that they made no other worthy films; rather the films listed tend to be monumental films that helped define a genre or period. For example, Arthur Penn made numerous notable films, but his 1967 Bonnie and Clyde ushered in the New Hollywood and changed filmmaking for the next two decades (or more). 2. Some filmmakers do have multiple films listed, but this tends to be reserved for filmmakers who are truly masters of the craft (e.g. Alfred Hitchcock, Stanley Kubrick) or filmmakers whose careers have had a long span (e.g. Luis Buñuel, 1928-1977). A few filmmakers who re-invented themselves later in their careers (e.g. David Cronenberg–his early body horror and later psychological dramas) will have multiple films listed, representing each period of their careers.

  • Backlash, Courts, and Disability Rights
    BACKLASH, COURTS, AND DISABILITY RIGHTS MICHAEL WATERSTONE∗ INTRODUCTION This symposium celebrates fifty years since the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Federal statutes are often described in lofty terms like “sweeping,” “ambitious,” and “transformative.” Even if these accolades might overstate things in some contexts, surely they do not with the Civil Rights Act of 1964. At a theoretical level, this law helped cement a vision of equality that fundamentally broke from the past. More tangibly, the Civil Rights Act changed employment relationships forever, and forced a re-imagination of the role of privately owned places of public accommodation in public life. Of course, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was not the beginning or the end of the struggle for racial (or gender) equality. But, by any account, it was a significant step. Borrowing tactics used in the civil rights movement, twenty-six years later, people with disabilities passed their own federal civil rights law, the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”).1 Like the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the ADA was intended to express a national sentiment that people with disabilities were to be brought into full citizenship. It required employers and privately owned places of public accommodation to think about disability inclusiveness in different ways, and it asked them to make certain accommodations and changes, at their own expense, in the name of bringing people with disabilities into the fold. And, like the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the ADA has helped create a profound societal transformation. We live in a more just and equal world because of both of these laws, and there is no serious political discussion for the repeal of either.
