Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies of the right and radical right have proliferated since the rise of European nationalist and populist parties in the 1980s. Yet, the literature on the right and the radical right has a largely Euro-American bias and has been limited by partisan academics that focus on the left. The Right and Radical Right in the Americas hopes to be a pioneering work that examines the history and contemporary manifestations of the right and radical right throughout the Americas. From interwar Canada to contemporary Chile, the right and radical right have come in diverse ideological currents. Those ideological currents have undergone historical changes and the strategies of the right and radical right need to be contextualized in respect of country and region. The right and radical right also have distinctive meanings throughout the Americas and in different epochs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The formation, organization, and accessibility of archives and libraries are critical for the production of historical narratives. They contain the materials with which historians and others reconstruct past events. Archives and libraries, however, not only help produce history, but also have a history of their own. From the early colonial projects to the formation of nation states in Latin America, archives and libraries had been at the center of power struggles and conflicting ideas over patrimony and document preservation that demand historical scrutiny. Much of their collections have been lost on account of accidents or sheer negligence, but there are also cases of recovery and reconstruction that have opened new windows to the past. The essays in this volume explore several fascinating cases of destruction and recovery of archives and libraries and illuminate the ways in which those episodes help shape the writing of historical narratives and the making of collective memories.

Download or read book Sovereign Emergencies written by Patrick William Kelly and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-10 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concern over rising state violence, above all in Latin America, triggered an unprecedented turn to a global politics of human rights in the 1970s. Patrick William Kelly argues that Latin America played the most pivotal role in these sweeping changes, for it was both the target of human rights advocacy and the site of a series of significant developments for regional and global human rights politics. Drawing on case studies of Brazil, Chile, and Argentina, Kelly examines the crystallization of new understandings of sovereignty and social activism based on individual human rights. Activists and politicians articulated a new practice of human rights that blurred the borders of the nation-state to endow an individual with a set of rights protected by international law. Yet the rights revolution came at a cost: the Marxist critique of US imperialism and global capitalism was slowly supplanted by the minimalist plea not to be tortured.

Download or read book Retrieving the Human written by Jose Comblin and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2003-08-26 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All roads in the church lead to humankind, Pope John Paul II wrote in his first encyclical. But what is it to be a human being? And what vision does Christian theology offer for being and becoming human? In the past, theology has taken the role of the dominant ideology in a society, claiming to present a complete vision of humankind and its place in creation. Now, Comblin argues, we need to reestablish the primacy of the biblical message and tradition being lived today. The Bible espouses a non-idealized, non-individualized, but realistic and communitarian view of what it means to be human. This can be called the humanity of the two-thirds world, those whose humanity does not figure in the ideology of the privileged few. As Comblin writes, The privileged forget their bodies. Those who have never been truly hungry do not understand that a human being is first and foremost a being who needs to eat. Today, it is the poor who live through their bodies, and theology makes an option for the poor. A new model of theology is emerging from Christian communities growing up all over the globe. And yet it is an old model, too, that finds and takes much from the communities of the first Christians. 'Retrieving the Human' explores this new-yet-old vision, examining questions of the new person and personhood: soul and body; humankind in relation to space and time; the person in relation to science, technology, and work; humanity before God. It is among the poor, particularly in the base communities, that Comblin looks for models of being truly human today.
