People from over 100 Indigenous nations, as well as non- Indigenous/settler allies/accomplices, have travelled to the site where the US Army Corps of Engineers has attempted to place the pipeline under the Mni Sose (Missouri River), and right through Oceti Sakowin (The Great Sioux Nation lands). The resistance at Standing Rock has included a range of camps and tactics, as well as heavy handed police/security responses. Though the Army Corps of Engineers decided to withhold the easement permit for the last stage of the pipeline in December 2016, pending an environmental assessment, few see this as the end of the resistance. Many pointed out that this is not a commitment to stop the pipeline as a whole, but rather an attempt to seek out other means of ensuring its completion. Donald Trump recently signed executive orders to revive both the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipeline projects, prompting renewed calls for resistance.

    SILENCE DESCENDS THE EFFECTS OF RISING AUTHORITARIANISM AND FEAR ON CITIZEN ENGAGEMENT by Marc A Brillinger B.A., York University, 1997 B.Ed., York University, 1997 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF INTERDISCIPLINARY STUDIES in The College of Graduate Studies (Interdisciplinary Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Okanagan) December 2009 © Marc A Brillinger, 2009 ABSTRACT Neutralized by fear, so called first world citizens have failed to react to massive inequalities in the distribution of wealth, or the ongoing reductions in basic freedoms and social justice at home and abroad. The University itself is arguably suffering from this same malaise as powerful interests infiltrate its higher echelons and subvert its public responsibility as “truth tellers and truth seekers.” The apparent inactivity and non-responsiveness of citizens and students to injustice can be partially if not wholly attributed to the systemic and ubiquitous use of fear contained within the intensive influence campaigns undertaken by the authoritarian-infused milieu of politics, economics, and religion now dominant in modern societies. Beginning in the 1950s, research on and application of intense influence tactics began to accelerate. Authoritarianism at both individual and systemic levels in politics, economics and religion, benefited from these advancements in and proliferation of influence techniques. Further, intense influence is easily understood through an examination of common social processes and psychological conditions delivered in specific ways; however, the vast majority of the citizenry remain unaware or unconvinced of the efficacy of these techniques. Subsequently, modern society allowed, even assisted, powerful institutions to successfully subvert public resources for private gain.

  • Decolonizing Anarchism: Expanding Anarcha-Indigenism in Theory
    Decolonizing Anarchism: Expanding Anarcha-Indigenism in Theory and Practice By Adam Gary Lewis A thesis submitted to the Graduate Program in Cultural Studies in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada September, 2012 Copyright © Adam Gary Lewis, 2012 Abstract In this thesis I argue that anarchism, as a political philosophy and social movement practice committed to resisting all forms of oppression and domination, needs to place colonialism more clearly and consistently at the centre of its analysis of interlocking systems of oppression. I argue that colonialism has largely been absent as a system of domination and oppression within anarchist theory and practice, with the exception of a small number of theorists and activist groups. My contention is that an anti-colonial orientation needs to be further encompassed in part because of anarchism’s commitment to resisting all forms of oppression and domination, but also because anarchist movements carry out and theorize resistance against the backdrop of settler colonial realities and on Indigenous lands. This thesis contributes to these aims by seeking to expand and push further work done on anarcha-Indigenism that examines the possible points of contact and resonance between anarchist and Indigenous politics, philosophy and action. I conceptualize anarcha-Indigenism first as a ‘third space’, following post-colonial theorists, and extend this concept towards an ‘n-dimensional’ space of meeting, where theoretical perspectives can come to engage with one another. This space consists of points of contact and resonance chiefly between Indigenist, anarchist and feminist theory and practice, but also extends to any perspective that might meet the core commitments of anarcha- Indigenism, namely resistance to all forms of oppression and domination.

  • The Myth of Martial Law: the Dynamics of Crisis Management and Fragmented Human Rights Boom in Argentina
    THE MYTH OF MARTIAL LAW: THE DYNAMICS OF CRISIS MANAGEMENT AND FRAGMENTED HUMAN RIGHTS BOOM IN ARGENTINA CARLOS TORRES A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN SOCIOLOGY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO SEPTEMBER 2013 ©CARLOS TORRES, 2013 Abstract Key words: myth of martial Jaw, crisis, fragmented human rights, social movements, Argentina This dissertation examines social movements in Argentina; in particular the differential impact the organization of Las Madres de Plaza de Mayo has in advancing human rights. The paradox with this social movement is that while it contributed to human rights awareness and induced legal changes, it was simultaneously able to materialize authoritarian practices. To this end, Las Madres de Plaza de Mayo utilized human rights as a banner to legitimize their engagement in social struggle. However, what is concealed is that the organization uses human rights for their own economic advancement. To synthesize, the goal is to examine how human rights works as a type of hegemonic power for social movements, while they may at times advance human rights, they may simultaneously betray perspectives of social justice and equity. This dissertation inquires into fragmentation in social movements struggle to materialize human rights. This dissertation also examines the concept of martial law. The objective here is to demonstrate how the widespread use of the term is problematic because the content of martial law is subject to historical juncture and prevailing power systems. The point is that rather than martial law having a clear category, it is rather nebulous.
