We have little doubt that both have also received assurances about the future indicating a preparedness by the Western imperialist powers to come to their aid in an extremity - assurances which could not be made public because they are not yet acceptable to world opinion and, it is to be hoped, will never become so. The very essence of Kissinger diplomacy is secrecy and deception if necessary deception of all parties, in the interests of U.S. security and the profitability of US investments. Was there ever a conference like the Geneva conference on Zimbabwe, convened without an agenda, without any preliminary conference document, without even agreement on what the conference is about? There was only one version of what Kissinger was proposing by way of a settlement, and that version came from the mouth of Ian Smith. From the very outset this justified the suspicion of the leaders of the African liberation movements, for Smith has time and again made it abundantly clear that in his view majority rule does not mean one man one vote, so that by committing himself to majority rule in two years he is committing himself to nothing certainly not to the "counting of heads", which is his contemptuous dismissal of the idea of votes for all. What, then, is the purpose of the United States diplomacy? A hint comes from a report published in the "Star" on October 7 last year stating: "A priority now, in the official Rhodesian view, is to legitimise themsleves and thereby win international support for the security forces in the fight which Rhodesians now say is clearly not black against white but communism against the West". Yes, it might be argued, that may be Smith's aim, but what of Kissinger himsel?. On August 30, 1976, speaking to an audience of black Americans in Philadelphia, Kissinger said the main aim of his forthcoming talks with Vorster in Zurich was to get South Africa to commit itself to blackruled independence in Zimbabwe and Namibia. "The white population of Rhodesia and Namibia must recognise that majority rule is inevitable. The only issue is what form it will take and how it will come about". Since Vorster, Smith and the Turnhalle conference in Windhoek have all declared for majority rule by the end of 1978, it stands to reason that they mean something different from what the rest of the world understands by majority rule. Smith in fact has declared it means rule by a majority of civilised men, which in effect means continued white minority domination. While the white delegation at the Turnhalle talks is trying to steer the decisions towards a Bantustan-type division of the country which would leave the whites in majority control of "their" area which, in addition to containing the major economic resources of the territory, would also classify the black majority as citizens of a foreign country and therefore not entitled to the vote. In his same Philadephia speech, Kissinger made his long-term objective a little clearer by coming to the defence of the white minority in South Africa itself. "The world and most black African leaders recognise South Africa as an African country", he said. "Its white settlers have lived on African soil for centuries. No one, including the responsible leaders of black Africa, challenges their right to be there. Unlike Rhodesia and Namibia, South Africa cannot be regarded as an illegitimate government, as an outside colonial intrusion". Thus the aim of United States policy is clearly no more than to produce some kind of settlement in Zimbabwe and Namibia which would end their illegitimacy, thus clearing the way for full-scale support, political, economic and military, for the South African apartheid regime, regarded since the defeat of the imperialist intervention in Angola as the only remaining reliable, and viable, bastion of the west in the sub-continent. True, South Africa is still something of an embarrassment to the West, and in his Philadelphia speech Kissinger was constrained to admit that "South Africa's internal structure is incompatible with any concept of human dignity". But the US is still prepared to accept South Africa as an ally, and most significantly Kissinger has not once declared his support for majority rule in South Africa itself, nor presented any specific demands to South Africa. For their part, the South African racists have always been aware of their value to the West. In the words of the London director of the South African Foundation, Mr Roy McNab, in an address to an international conference in Amsterdam last October, the West needs South Africa for its riches and resources, many of them vital to Western industry, and for its strategic value in preventing "the communists gaining control of the whole of Southern Africa". At the same time, said McNab, America could not give the impression that she was giving any kind of help to an unreformed South Africa. "It may well be that America will put pressure on South Africa to smarten herself up so that she can be readmitted, respectably, to the club where it is essential for the United States to have her" he said. (Star, October 28, 1976.) Thus the United States today deals with Vorster as an equal, and includes South Africa as an equal partner with the United States and Britain in discussions about multi-million dollar aid funds for the "protection" of white interests in Zimbabwe. The mass murderer of Soweto, Gugulethu and Bonteheuwel is numbered amongst the angels in the imperialist hierarchy. And to ensure that Vorster is kept supplied with the necessary hardware to shoot down schoolchildren by the hundreds in the black townships where they dare to demonstrate for their rights, the US, Britain and France last October vetoed once again a Security resolution calling for a mandatory arms embargo on South Africa. In the UN General Assembly in the same month the United States rejected demands from the majority of delegates that it sever its political, economic and military ties with South Africa, and was joined in this stand by the nine nations of the European Economic Community who formally declared, through the Netherlands Ambassador, that they had decided "that it is their duty and responsibility to keep open a channel of communication and to continue to make .our views known to the government and people of South Africa so that the policy of apartheid may finally be brought to an end".

  • The Concept of Solidarity in Anarchist Thought
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Loughborough University Institutional Repository The Concept of Solidarity in Anarchist Thought by John Nightingale A Doctoral Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy Loughborough University September 2015 © John Nightingale 2015 Abstract This thesis makes an original contribution to knowledge by presenting an analysis of anarchist conceptions of solidarity. Whilst recent academic literature has conceptualised solidarity from a range of perspectives, anarchist interpretations have largely been marginalised or ignored. This neglect is unjustified, for thinkers of the anarchist tradition have often emphasised solidarity as a key principle, and have offered original and instructive accounts of this important but contested political concept. In a global era which has seen the role of the nation state significantly reduced, anarchism, which consists in a fundamental critique and rejection of hierarchical state-like institutions, can provide a rich source of theory on the meaning and significance of solidarity. The work consists in detailed analyses of the concepts of solidarity of four prominent anarchist thinkers: Michael Bakunin, Peter Kropotkin, Murray Bookchin and Noam Chomsky. The analytic investigation is led by Michael Freeden’s methodology of ‘ideological morphology’, whereby ideologies are viewed as peculiar configurations of political concepts, which are themselves constituted by sub-conceptual idea- components. Working within this framework, the analysis seeks to ascertain the way in which each thinker attaches particular meanings to the concept of solidarity, and to locate solidarity within their wider ideological system. Subsequently, the thesis offers a representative profile of an ‘anarchist concept’ of solidarity, which is characterised by notions of universal inclusion, collective responsibility and the social production of individuality.

  • POVERTY and WELFARE in COLONIAL NIGERIA, 1900-1954 By
    POVERTY AND WELFARE IN COLONIAL NIGERIA, 1900-1954 by UYILAWA USUANLELE A thesis submitted to the Department of History in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada September 2010 Copyright © Uyilawa Usuanlele, 2010 ABSTRACT This study examines the interface of poverty and development of state welfare initiatives colonial Nigeria. It attempts to unravel the transformation and the nature and character of poverty afflicting majority of Nigerians since the period immediately preceding colonialism and under colonial rule. It looks at the causes and manifestations of poverty as well as the nature of social welfare in pre-colonial Nigerian societies in relation to the new forms of poverty that British Colonial policies visited on the society. Poverty in the colonial period is shown to have been caused by changes in power relations and accompanying administrative and economic reorganization of the society which facilitated the diversion of labour, resources and surplus produce from family and household use to the colonial state, firms and their agents. This new form of poverty was manifested in the loss of family and household self-sufficiency and the inability to meet personal survival needs and obligations, making the majority unable to participate fully in the affairs of their communities. This dissertation looks at how the British Colonial State tried to achieve its objective of exploitation and deal with the problem of poverty in its various manifestations using indigenous institutions and practices and other non- indigenous strategies in the face of growing African resistance and declining productivity. It argues that over-aching strategy of development represented by the Colonial Development and Welfare Act of 1940 and subsequent amendments and community development were designed to co-opt the emergent civil society into acquiescence with the social system and contain further resistance, and as such could not provide welfare nor alleviate the problem of poverty.

  • An Enlightenment Era Reappraisal of the First Amendment and Campus Hate Speech
    NO ROOM FOR ABRIDGMENT: AN ENLIGHTENMENT ERA REAPPRAISAL OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT AND CAMPUS HATE SPEECH A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Liberal Studies By Meredith Symonds, B.A., Honors in Letters and Science Georgetown University Washington, D.C. August 5, 2010 NO ROOM FOR ABRIDGMENT: AN ENLIGHTENMENT ERA REAPPRAISAL OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT AND CAMPUS HATE SPEECH Meredith Symonds, B.A., Honors in Letters and Science Mentor: Terrence Reynolds, Ph.D. ABSTRACT In the late eighteenth century, Enlightenment philosophy advocated seeking truth through unrestricted learning, and this education creates awareness of the delicate balance between autonomy and consideration for all of humanity. This era’s philosophy was put into practice by the formation of the American republic and respective Constitution and Bill of Rights, both of which empower and limit government as well as ensure civil liberties defined by the Enlightenment ideals of autonomy. The First Amendment, created in the Bill of Rights, establishes the freedom of speech, press, and religion; all of which are fundamental to unrestricted learning and self-government. While it seems that the intellectual leaders of the United States concurred with the political philosophy that established the republic, a mistrust of the masses caused Congress appease its fears by occasionally abridging the First Amendment in ways that censor the public, limit learning, and contradict Enlightenment philosophy. This thesis will examine how the history of the American republic enforces the interpretation of the First Amendment to protect hate speech on public college campuses.

    The Anarchist Synthesis Sébastien Faure 1927 Contents The three anarchist currents ........................ 3 The Anarchist Synthesis ........................... 6 How has the existence of thse three currents come to weaken the anar- chist movement? ............................ 7 The problem and the remedy ........................ 8 2 This is, we believe, the first English translation of Faure’s article on the “anar- chist synthesis”, the response by a certain sector of anarchism to the theories set out in the “Draft Organization Platform for a General Union of Anarchists” pub- lished by the “Delo Truda” group in France in 1926. We are unsure as to the exact publiction details of this text (some sources say 1927, others 1928), but this has been translated using the text given in “Volonté Anarchiste”, No. 12, 1980, Edition du Groupe Fresnes-Antony de la Fédération Anarchiste. *** The three anarchist currents In France, as in most other countries, three main anarchist currents can be dis- tinguished, which can be named thus: • Anarcho-Syndicalism; • Libertarian Communism; • Anarchist Individualism. It was natural and inevitable that, having reached a certain stage of development, an idea as vast as anarchism should end up with this triple manifestation of its existence. A philosophical and social movement, that is to say one of ideas and action, that seeks to do away with every authoritarian institution, would necessarily give rise to those distinctions that obligatorily determine the variety of situations, environ- ments and temperaments, the diversity of sources on which the innumerable indi- vidual formations and the prodigious body of events draw nourishment. Anarcho-syndicalism, libertarian communism and anarchist individualism, these three currents exist and nothing and no-one can prevent them from doing so.

  • A.3.5 What Is Anarcha-Feminism?
    A.3.5 What is Anarcha-Feminism? Although opposition to the state and all forms of authority had a strong voice among the early feminists of the 19th century, the more recent feminist movement which began in the 1960's was founded upon anarchist practice. This is where the term anarcha-feminism came from, referring to women anarchists who act within the larger feminist and anarchist movements to remind them of their principles. The modern anarcha-feminists built upon the feminist ideas of previous anarchists, both male and female. Indeed, anarchism and feminism have always been closely linked. Many outstanding feminists have also been anarchists, including the pioneering Mary Wollstonecraft (author of A Vindication of the Rights of Woman), the Communard Louise Michel, and the American anarchists (and tireless champions of women's freedom) Voltairine de Cleyre and Emma Goldman (for the former, see her essays "Sex Slavery", "Gates of Freedom", "The Case of Woman vs. Orthodoxy", "Those Who Marry Do Ill"; for the latter see "The Traffic in Women", "Woman Suffrage", "The Tragedy of Woman's Emancipation", "Marriage and Love" and "Victims of Morality", for example). Freedom, the world's oldest anarchist newspaper, was founded by Charlotte Wilson in 1886. Anarchist women like Virgilia D'Andrea and Rose Pesota played important roles in both the libertarian and labour movements. The "Mujeres Libres" ("Free Women") movement in Spain during the Spanish revolution is a classic example of women anarchists organising themselves to defend their basic freedoms and create a society based on women's freedom and equality (see Free Women of Spain by Martha Ackelsberg for more details on this important organisation).
