Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Together with his brother Humberto, Daniel Ortega Saavedra masterminded the only victorious Latin American revolution since Fidel Castro's in Cuba. Following the triumphant 1979 Nicaraguan revolution, Ortega was named coordinator of the governing junta, and then in 1984 was elected president by a landslide in the country's first free presidential election. The future was full of promise. Yet the United States was soon training, equipping, and financing a counterrevolutionary force inside Nicaragua while sabotaging its crippled economy. The result was a decade-long civil war. By 1990, Nicaraguans dutifully voted Ortega out and the preferred candidate of the United States in. And Nicaraguans grew poorer and sicker. Then, in 2006, Daniel Ortega was reelected president. He was still defiantly left-wing and deeply committed to reclaiming the lost promise of the Revolution. Only time will tell if he succeeds, but he has positioned himself as an ally of Castro and Hugo Ch&ávez, while life for many Nicaraguans is finally improving. Unfinished Revolution is the first full-length biography of Daniel Ortega in any language. Drawing from a wealth of untapped sources, it tells the story of Nicaragua's continuing struggle for liberation through the prism of the Revolution's most emblematic yet enigmatic hero.

Download or read book The Struggle Is Eternal written by Joseph R. Fitzgerald and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2018-12-14 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many prominent and well-known figures greatly impacted the civil rights movement, but one of the most influential and unsung leaders of that period was Gloria Richardson. As the leader of the Cambridge Nonviolent Action Committee (CNAC), a multifaceted liberation campaign formed to target segregation and racial inequality in Cambridge, Maryland, Richardson advocated for economic justice and tactics beyond nonviolent demonstrations. Her philosophies and strategies—including her belief that black people had a right to self–defense—were adopted, often without credit, by a number of civil rights and black power leaders and activists. The Struggle Is Eternal: Gloria Richardson and Black Liberation explores the largely forgotten but deeply significant life of this central figure and her determination to improve the lives of black people. Using a wide range of source materials, including interviews with Richardson and her personal papers, as well as interviews with dozens of her friends, relatives, and civil rights colleagues, Joseph R. Fitzgerald presents an all-encompassing narrative. From Richardson's childhood, when her parents taught her the importance of racial pride, through the next eight decades, Fitzgerald relates a detailed and compelling story of her life. He reveals how Richardson's human rights activism extended far beyond Cambridge and how her leadership style and vision for liberation were embraced by the younger activists of the black power movement, who would carry the struggle on throughout the late 1960s and into the 1970s.

Desde una perspectiva marxista y feminista se abordan las luchas de las mujeres en sus momentos culminantes, empezando con el papel de la mujer en la revolucion inglesa de mediados del siglo xvii, cuando por primera vez florecieron ideas de liberacion de las mujeres y una nueva moralidad sexual, en la revolucion francesa del siglo xviii, en la comuna de paris del siglo xix, en la revolucion rusa de 1917. Se dedican cinco capitulos a los exitos y fracasos en la organizacion de las mujeres trabajadoras en el movimiento socialista, entre 1860 y 1920 en estados unidos, alemania, rusia, francia y el reino unido. Entre 1990 y 1960 la cuestion de la liberacion quedo oculta bajo el peso de la crisis economica. A finales de los 60 y principios de los 70 surgio un nuevo movimiento. Finalmente se contemplan los movimientos contemporaneos de liberacion de mujeres en estados unidos y el reino unido, considerando su composicion social y su modo de accion.

Download or read book Sex Worker and Pig Struggle for Liberation written by Alpha Lamb and published by Alpha Lamb. This book was released on with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This story is about two minorities struggling for liberation from human bondage. Sex Worker, better known as Prostitute, is often described as the world's oldest profession, or among the oldest. Sadly for herself if not for all others, she has been persecuted from pre-history ever since. She may have been tolerated as an exception, but never widely accepted. Does society owe her the obligation of rescue from fallen slavery, or should she be deterred from practising her trade by stiff punishment, in order to maintain the hygiene of the social fabric? What does she think, and does it matter what she thinks? The story begins with a girl forced into prostitution by destitution, until she fights back together with her fellow sister mates against inherent frustration, cruelty, and prejudice. Her argument is that she has an inalienable human right to dispose her body and sex, in private, in whichever way she desires, especially when such disposal is essential to earn a living. The imposition of public morality as her personal responsibility is what she cannot accept and endure. But it is more than that, since she is also in the other minority. She is a Pig, an itinerant animal dominated no shorter and no less by human civilization than what has been suffered by Prostitute.It is a moot point whether Prostitute or Animal has suffered more, or considered more despicable. Presumably Animal could have it easier since they are supposed to be of the lower order, with no intelligence whatsoever, until the relatively recent advent of animal right. Perhaps Animal should be grateful to human civilization for survival and multiplication too, whereas Prostitute can always be found in human survival. The story brings up the coincidence of Prostitute Struggle and Pig Struggle, initially each on its own, until reaching the stage when each finds the need to join force and cause, though a common front is anything but a smooth ride. The first public confrontation against the establishment, as can be expected, proves to serve not much more than a learning curve. However, the seed once buried and unburied would be allowed time and space to take root. Nourished non-stop by where they come from, the denizens of the joint struggle will not waver or lose hope for an eventual outcome. The author does not pretend to be entirely on their side morally. Take the story as a science fiction if you like. Whether it will come to pass is a matter of opinion.

Download or read book Everyday Communists in South Africa s Liberation Struggle written by Alan Kirkaldy and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-10 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the role of social movements in the Southern African liberation struggle, through the lens of two ‘everyday communists’. Focusing on the Communist Party of South Africa (CPSA), the author explores the lives of Ivan and Lesley Schermbrucker, whose contribution to the party was more clandestine than that of leaders such as Bram Fischer and Joe Slovo. They represent how ‘ordinary’ people could play significant roles based on stances more rooted in common decency and morality than in Marxist theory. The book also sheds light on the interplay between transnational and national tendencies during the liberation movement, particularly between the 1940s and the 1960s. The Schermbruckers changed their views in response to the shifting national and international political landscape, the rise of Stalinism, and the flight of South African activists into exile from the 1960s. Both fluent in African languages, they were able to create relationships of trust with African members of the CPSA. Examining tensions and conflicts during the liberation struggle, this book provides fresh insights into ‘underground’ activism.

Download or read book Napoleon and the Struggle for Germany Volume 1 The War of Liberation Spring 1813 written by Michael V. Leggiere and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-04-09 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first comprehensive history of the campaign that determined control of Germany following Napoleon's catastrophic defeat in Russia. Michael V. Leggiere reveals how, in the spring of 1813, Prussia, the weakest of the great powers, led the struggle against Napoleon as a war of national liberation. Using German, French, British, Russian, Austrian and Swedish sources, he provides a panoramic history that covers the full sweep of the battle for Germany from the mobilization of the belligerents, strategy, and operations to coalition warfare, diplomacy, and civil-military relations. He shows how Russian war weariness conflicted with Prussian impetuosity, resulting in the crisis that almost ended the Sixth Coalition in early June. In a single campaign, Napoleon drove the Russo–Prussian army from the banks of the Saale to the banks of the Oder. The Russo–Prussian alliance was perilously close to imploding, only to be saved at the eleventh-hour by an armistice.
