Pike, Jonathan E. "Marx, Aristotle and beyond : aspects of Aristotelianism in Marxist social ontology." Thesis, University of Glasgow, 1995. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/3480/.
Full textAbstract:
Marx's debt to Aristotle has been noted, but inadequately. Usually commentators focus on the parallels between discrete ethical theories of both writers. However, for Marx, ethics is not a discrete field, but is founded on a conception of social ontology. This thesis links the two by showing that, precisely because of its Aristotelian roots, Marx's political economy of bourgeois society demands an ethical view arising from alienated labour. Marx conceives of bourgeois society as an organic whole. But this entails that is social matter can only exist potentially, and not fully setting up a tension that points to the eventual supercession of its social form. In this manner, Marx's Aristotelian hylomorphism provides the link between the early and the later Marx, between the critique of alienation and the mature works of political economy. This reading of Marx is facilitated by combining it with recent developments in philosophy. The works of Harré, Kripke and Wiggins, in particular have helped retrospectively to justify Marx's intuitive realism. Their contributions on explanation identity and sortals are applied in order to elucidate and justify his ontology. In the course of this, the problematic boundary between analytical philosophy and social theory is crossed. Marx restates ancient beliefs about the transitory nature of existence and the eternal nature of change. In particular, there are strong parallels between Marx's account of the decline and eventual fall of capitalism, and the Aristotelian message that all sublunary entities come to be and pass away. These parallels are sufficiently striking to allow us to recognise that Marx's account of the crisis ridden and ultimately doomed perspective for capitalism, overlooked by his protagonists, is but a variant of the Aristotelian theory of passing away or phthorá.

Previous issue date: 2014<br>Resumo: Esta dissertação é dedicada ao estudo dos trabalhos do marxista peruano José Carlos Mariátegui (1894-1930) e, especialmente, à análise da importância política assumida pelos conceitos de mito e religião no conjunto de sua obra. Os capítulos referem-se a três etapas da vida do autor ¿ a juventude (1914-1919), o exílio (1919-1923) e o regresso e posterior militância socialista no Peru (1923-1930) ¿ e por meio da exposição de sua formação intelectual e política procuramos compreender as preocupações do Amauta com os conceitos acima mencionados. A pesquisa mostra que, contrastado a outros autores clássicos do marxismo, Mariátegui assume um olhar mais sensível ao papel histórico e social cumprido por diferentes manifestações religiosas ¿ contribuindo para isto a referência a sua formação pessoal e familiar, marcada por mística e religiosidade. Em seu desenvolvimento como socialista, o Amauta incorpora ao seu discurso termos como mito, fé e religiosidade, que passam a constituir o horizonte de sua reflexão revolucionária. Por outro lado, ao demonstrar uma preocupação criteriosa com a análise das manifestações políticas e históricas de atores e instituições religiosas ¿ tanto na Itália, quanto no Peru e no continente latino-americano ¿ Mariátegui não deixa, porém, de distanciar-se de críticas racionalistas e anticlericais, afirmando uma "nova concepção" de religião, mais ampla e profunda, que se descola de adjetivações obscurantistas<br>Abstract: This dissertation is dedicated to the study of Peruvian Marxist José Carlos Mariátegui (1894-1930) works and especially to the analysis of the political relevance of concepts such as myth and religion in his work. The chapters refer to the three phases of Mariátegui's life ¿ his youth (1914-1919); exile (1919-1923); return and posterior socialist activism in Peru (1923-1930) ¿ we aim at a better understanding of Amauta¿s concerns regarding the aforementioned concepts by evaluating his intellectual and political formation. The research shows that, in contrast with others classical Marxist authors, Mariátegui assumes a more sensitive vision of the social and historical roles performed by different religious expressions ¿ for which his personal and family education, marked by religiosity and mystique, are a great contribution. In his socialist development, Amauta incorporates to his speech expressions such as myth, faith and religiosity, which constitute the horizon of his revolutionary thought. On the other hand, by demonstrating a careful concern in his analysis about political and historical manifestations of religious actors and institutions ¿ in Italy as well as in Peru and Latin America ¿ Mariátegui distances himself from rationalists and anticlerical critics, affirming a "new conception" of religion, wider and deeper, and detached of obscurantist adjectives<br>Mestrado<br>Ciencia Politica<br>Mestre em Ciência Política

Recherche sur l'imaginaire de la société comme corps. Le point de départ est la théologie politique médiévale.

Williams, A. A. "Christian Socialism as a political ideology." Thesis, University of Liverpool, 2016. http://livrepository.liverpool.ac.uk/3001797/.
Full textAbstract:
A study of Christian Socialism is valuable at a time in which Christianity has become, in the minds of many, intrinsically associated with right-wing politics and conservatism. In addition, recent publications on this topic have focused on history and biography rather than the details of what Christian Socialists actually believed. This thesis considers that topic under three main headings: (1) ‘The Basis of Christian Socialism’; (2) ‘The Route to Christian Socialism’; (3) ‘Christian Socialist Society’. Firstly, Christian Socialists based their socialism mainly on the Bible, church teaching and the sacraments, to a far greater extent than any other sources. Secondly, Christian Socialists called for a revolution but were committed to democratic methods, suggesting a synthesis between revolutionary and democratic socialism. In practice this can be sketched out as a three-stage process: first, persuading people of the deficiencies of capitalism and the need for socialism; second, the election of a Labour government / the persuasion of other politicians to adopt socialism; third, the establishment of socialism, brought about by a socialist government and population. Thirdly, Christian Socialists sought to create a society of co-operation and collectivism, equality, democracy and peace. Their vision of this society was for the most part highly utopian, due to the belief that the new society would be the Kingdom of God or Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. There are several criticisms of Christian Socialism which have been made, both from a Christian and from a socialist perspective, over, for example, the viability of the Christian Socialist methodology and the validity of the Christian Socialist use of Scripture and church teaching. It will be concluded that the concept at the core of Christian Socialism is brotherhood, based on the idea of the universal Fatherhood of God, and that other key concepts – co-operation, equality and democracy – are derived from this. In seeking co-operation, equality and democracy Christian Socialism is not necessarily distinct from other forms of socialism, but it is distinct in drawing upon Christian theology as a basis for these concepts as well as the language to describe a future socialist society.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis examines the political significance of music (and sonic expression more broadly) in National Socialist Germany and the shadow cast by it over subsequent music history. I argue that sonic expression in the Third Reich held much greater political significance than has elsewhere been recognized, featuring as a prominent component of the Reich’s sovereign command structure. The thesis attempts to shed light on this intercourse between the musical and the political at a theoretical level and to trace its impact on various developments in post-1945 sonic arts practices. Part I explores ways in which sonic expression was manipulated as part of the National Socialist regime’s articulation of sovereignty. It reframes Walter Benjamin's phrase ‘aestheticization of politics’ in relation to various forms of sonic (often vocal) activity in the Third Reich. It then analyses the National Socialist radio broadcasting system as a unique, technical and bureaucratic medium of sovereign command. This gives new insight into the place of sonic expression and music in modernity and raises questions about the quality of the relationship between music and political power and how that relationship might be modulated through creative practice. Part II then considers the musical ‘afterlives’ of this meeting of politics and sonic expression. It explores how different sonic arts practices have subsequently (since 1945) rethought and reworked the political form of sonic expression, guided by theexperience of National Socialism. Chapter Four analyses work by Luigi Nono and Bernd-Alois Zimmermann in relation to language and historical testimony. Chapter Five explores Karlheinz Stockhausen’s and Christina Kubisch’s engagements with technology. Finally, Chapter Six examines Mauricio Kagel’s treatment of the musical ‘work’ form’s temporal implications. Together, these analyses reveal the outline of an historically transformative approach to critical, politically self-reflexive music making.

Notre recherche doctorale porte sur les politiques de lutte contre la dualisation socio-spatiale menées à Bruxelles et Montréal. Ces politiques publiques ont été introduites à la fin des années 1980 dans un très grand nombre de villes occidentales (Equal Opportunity Policies et Urban Regeneration Policies dans le cadre du programme Action for Cities en Grande-Bretagne, Soziale Stadt en Allemagne, la politique de la ville en France, Urban et Objectif 2 au niveau européen, etc.) en raison de la montée de l’exclusion et de menace pesant sur la cohésion sociale urbaine. Ces politiques publiques se fondent sur la logique de ciblage territorial, de mobilisation locale et sur une approche intégrée mêlant des actions sur le bâti, les équipements collectifs et des actions sociales. C’est pourquoi elles introduisent plusieurs ruptures par rapport aux modes d’intervention publique à l’œuvre jusqu’alors. La diffusion de ces politiques publiques nous a incitée à interroger la standardisation et les transformations de l’action publique véhiculées par ce type de politiques publiques. Notre démarche se caractérise non seulement par la comparaison de deux villes, mais aussi de deux politiques publiques et de trois quartiers dans chacune des deux villes. <p>1.\<br>Doctorat en Sciences politiques et sociales<br>info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished

<p><p><p>L’eau est vitale dans toutes les économies. C’est à cause de son rôle prépondérant pour la survie que les tensions politiques autour des basins et des fleuves internationaux tendent à être particulièrement très épineuses. Actuellement, la mauvaise répartition de cette ressource pose un sérieux problème du fait qu’elle est gérée en fonction de stratégies politiques et non en fonction des réalités hydrologiques régionales. Nous expliquons à l’aide de la « Enhanced Power Matrix Model » (La Matrice de FREY et NAFF améliorée) que les tensions autour des bassins et des fleuves au Moyen – Orient n’aboutiront pas à des conflits armés mais à une situation de non guerre et de non paix, très peu propice à la coopération. Pour sortir de cette situation de blocage, nous proposons aux décideurs politiques et aux négociateurs, sur base de l’article 6 de la Convention de New York de 1997 sur « les cours d’eau internationaux à d’autres usages que la navigation », un modèle de répartition de la ressource hydrique entre les différents riverains d’un cours d’eau international. Face à cette situation, beaucoup de pays de la région tentent de mettre de façon unilatérale des modèles de gestion macroéconomique :réduction de la demande ou l’augmentation de l’offre de l’eau. Ces modèles se heurtent à des obstacles de nature économique, politique, sociologique et culturelle. Dans un objectif de conception de nouveaux modèles de gestion de l’eau, nous proposons un modèle coopératif, les projets de transfert inter – bassin, pour faire face à la mauvaise répartition de cette ressource au Moyen – Orient. <p>Nous appuyons sur la méthodologie multicritère d’aide à la décision pour opérationnaliser l’article 6 de la Convention de New York et pouvoir comparer les différents projets de transfert inter - bassin.

Le commentaire des résultats fournis par ce logiciel nous a permit de tirer l’enseignement suivant :seuls les projets qui présentent une faisabilité politique élevée arrivent en tête de classement.

Myers, Eric C. D. "Self-Ownership, Equality, and Socialism." Scholarship @ Claremont, 2019. https://scholarship.claremont.edu/cmc_theses/2006.
Full textAbstract:
In this paper, I have examined the political philosophy of a left-libertarian, Michael Otsuka from his book Libertarianism Without Inequality, and a libertarian socialist, Nicholas Vrousalis from his article Libertarian Socialism: A Better Reconciliation between Equality and Self-Ownership. The goal of this examination is partially to explore and present a variety of positions on distributive justice within libertarian theory as well as defend libertarian socialism as a plausible form of libertarianism. The main question motivating this defense is “Can libertarian socialism be truly libertarian in its conception of self-ownership and autonomy?”. In this examination of both left-libertarianism and libertarian socialism I compared both theories to the works of prominent right-libertarian philosophers, primarily John Locke and Robert Nozick, to determine if the theories meet the standards set by traditional libertarianism in promoting individual autonomy as well as to determine if these standards can be reconciled with substantial material equality, either in terms of opportunity or welfare.
The results of this examination showed that not only are left-libertarianism and libertarian socialism plausible theories of libertarianism, even exceeding potential for individual autonomy found in right-libertarian theory, but that they both successfully reconcile this autonomy with equality. In defending libertarian socialism, it was determined that it is a successful reconciliation of self-ownership and equality, though this comes at the expense of the potential for minor decreases in self-ownership among individuals when compared to Otsuka’s left-libertarianism. This was defended, however, as libertarian socialism seems more promising a theory for those who hold stronger commitments to equality as well as additional commitments, namely a commitment to democracy.

Full textAbstract:
The term 'Christian Socialism' carries two meanings: firstly, it denotes an abstract political and theological idea; and secondly, it refers to the various figures and organizations who laid claim to the term throughout history, and who fought for social justice under its banner. It is the latter definition given above that describes the theoretical scope of this thesis, but on the basis of the research some tentative thoughts are offered on Christian Socialism as a political philosophy. Few works of scholarly literature have sought to critically analyse the history of the movement without also explicitly or implicitly advancing particular notions of what the 'essence' of Christian Socialism was, and what it ought to be. This thesis aims to address this historiographical imbalance by investigating the social, political, and economic ideas of the fin-de-siecle Christian Socialists in light of their historical context. To do so, the thesis conceives of Christian Socialist political economy not in terms of its leaders' theories, but as it was expounded by the movement's leading theorists as they engaged with contemporary socialist and economic discourse. These theorists were the editors and authors of the movement's political literature, which comprised numerous sermons, pamphlets, novels, textbooks, and magazines, as well as periodicals such as The Economic Review. These sources have been used to trace the Christian Socialists' attempts to challenge popular conceptions of the poor, of socialism, and of political economy, as well as their attempts to forge a Christian economics based on their understanding of contemporary strands of economic and socialist thought. The thesis uncovers several previously marginalized aspects of the history of Victorian and Edwardian Christian Socialism, such as: the movement's interaction with and use of the ideas of J. A. Hobson, Alfred Marshall, Karl Marx, and the historical school of economics; the movement's popularization of economic theory and secular socialist doctrines; and the movement's promulgation of collectivist economic socialism throughout the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century.

Full textAbstract:
Comment rendre compte de la richesse syncrétique, souvent mésestimée, de la pensée politique de John Stuart Mill ? Nous soutenons que celle-ci est cohérente et que sa clé d'unification se trouve dans sa conception du Progrès, conçu à la fois comme nature et comme destination humaine, qui permet de subsumer la diversité de ses théories au sein d'une utopie d'un type nouveau, libérale et centrée sur les conditions de sa production et de son maintien. En ce sens, la Partie I s’attache à identifier les différents apports idéologiques qui nourrissent ses écrits, entre libéralisme, socialisme et conservatisme, ainsi que leurs limites respectives. La Partie II propose le concept de « libéralisme transcendantal » pour décrire la relation et la complémentarité de ces différentes influences au sein d’une doctrine unifiée sous l'hégémonie du libéralisme, promouvant avec exigence l’autonomie humaine à l’échelle individuelle comme à l'échelle collective en s'attachant toujours à ses conditions de possibilité, aux fins du Progrès. La Partie III s'intéresse alors aux ressorts matériels, moraux et politiques de ce Progrès : développement indéfini des individualités et de « l'art de vivre », c'est-à-dire bonheur dynamique, dans un état économique et démographique pourtant « stationnaire », et sous des institutions représentatives vouées à cultiver l'excellence dans le respect du pluralisme. Au terme de cette reconstitution théorique, les Perspectives proposent des éléments pour une refondation de la pensée progressiste, en particulier écologique et éducative, émancipée des clivages partisans contemporains, dans l'esprit de John Stuart Mill<br>John Stuart Mill's syncretic political thought is too often misestimated. My work aims to demonstrate that it is though consistent and that its pivotal point lies in Mill's vision of Progress: this one is conceived at the same time as the human nature and the human telos and as such, it unifies his views on education, happiness, social justice, economic stability and the aims and means of the representative government. All these elements build a new kind of utopia, a liberal utopia focused on the conditions of its own advent and preservation. In this perspective, my First Part will sort out which influences nourish Mill's writings, between liberalism, socialism and conservatism – none of these ideologies being completely accurate. Part Two will then theorize “transcendantal liberalism” so as to describe his approach as a unified doctrine polarized by liberalism but always keeping in mind what “liberty” relies on, i.e. the preconditions of individual and collective autonomy. Part Three will stress on which material, moral and political devices are required by such a goal: a steady-state economy and demography, moral growth and the culture of an “Art of Living” and a “religion of Humanity”, and finally the flourishing of a truly pluralist representative government. To conclude, the Perspectives will highlight a few elements inspired by Mill and likely to be useful for the renewal of nowadays ideology of Progress, particularly from an ecological standpoint

Full textAbstract:
Looking at the post-socialist cases of Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Ukraine and Russia, this dissertation asks whether rapid development of political markets in post-socialist polities represents the anomaly of post-socialist transformation or, perhaps, it represents the normal trajectory of the evolutionary development of democratic institutions. The study has a cross-disciplinary approach, incorporating insights and analyses from different disciplines. To answer the research question in this study, a comprehensive (comparative case study) research strategy is employed. The cases were selected based on the notion that they represent a subset of a larger set of post-socialist democratic polities with very similar transformational trajectories although different in a range of historical, cultural, and geopolitical aspects. All selected cases experienced a relatively painful transformation of social, political and economic institutions. However, the success of these transformations varies across these cases. Also there is a substantial variation in the strategies of reforms, pace of changes and extent of public and elite support for the changes.Particular electoral practices and their correlation with distinct institutional and media environments are examined by combining macro-level contextual data with micro-level data. The conclusions about the degree of professionalization, the impact of the ongoing mediatization of electoral politics, the variety of campaign styles and the consequences of these changes in the nature of political campaigns for electoral democracies in post-socialist countries and worldwide are drawn.The study provides empirical support for an argument that rapid development of political markets in post-socialist polities is not an anomaly of post-socialist transformation, but, rather, is a reflection of the radical changes that are being faced by the modern democratic polities. The study suggested potential dangers caused by spread of modern political marketing techniques. This problem is even more acute in post-socialist countries than in established democracies. These countries have not inherited the robust system of democratic guarantees in the form of institutions or traditions. The effects of adaptation of modern forms of political institutions functioning could be much more unpredictable.

Full textAbstract:
This is the first empirical investigation of right-wing extremism in the GDR produced in English. Based on original research in the former GDR state archives as well as interviews with former right-wing extremists, it reconstructs and discusses the nature of right-wing extremism in the GDR, focusing, in particular, on the decade 1980-1990. The major aim of the thesis is to provide a fuller characterisation of the phenomenon in order to understand its existence and development in a self-proclaimed socialist, anti-fascist state. This aim is achieved by reconstructing right-wing extremism from the empirical and secondary sources and highlighting affinities between the dominant political culture of the GDR and the salient features of GDR right-wing extremism. The major findings of the study can be summarised as follows: right-wing extremism in Germany after the <I>Wende </I>was not simply a result of the problems associated with German re-unification but represents a continuation of a right-wing subculture that was developing into a small but militant political movement in East Germany before 1990 The right-wing extremists themselves were predominantly drawn from families closely associated with the regime and displayed no especial signs of socio-economic deprivation or social marginalisation. The motivation for right-wing extremism in the GDR was based largely on ethno-nationalist arguments which were mobilised and legitimised within mainstream political culture and a legitimacy crisis that undermined the regime in the 1980s.

Wright, Martin. "Wales and socialism : political culture and national identity c. 1880-1914." Thesis, Cardiff University, 2011. http://orca.cf.ac.uk/26969/.
Full textAbstract:
Thesis examines the spread of socialist ideas and the growth of the socialist movement in Wales in the period 1880-1914. It pays particular attention to the way in which socialists related to Welsh national identity, and analyses the processes through which the universalist ideals of socialism were related to the particular and local conditions of Wales. It examines the interplay between Wales and the wider world that occurred through the medium of the socialist movement, and balances this against the internal dynamic and organic growth of socialism within Wales itself. Having surveyed and commented upon existing British and Welsh labour historiography, the thesis opens with a discussion of the first „modern‟ socialists to undertake propaganda in Wales in the 1880s. It then examines the way in which socialist societies began to put down roots in the 1890s, through case studies of the Fabian Society in Cardiff and the Social Democratic Federation in south Wales. The central part of the thesis is concerned with the rise of the most important of the socialist organisations, the Independent Labour Party. Attention is given to the way in which the ILP used the south Wales coal strike of 1898 to gain its ascendancy in Welsh socialist politics, and the nature of the political culture that was created by the party in south Wales. The remainder of the thesis discusses the nature of socialist growth beyond south Wales, and pays particular attention to indigenous Welsh forms of socialism. The thesis concludes with an examination of the rapid growth of the socialist movement in Wales after 1906, and the consequent debate that occurred about the relationship of socialism, Welsh nationalism and the Welsh language.

Zevgolis, Dimitrios G. "Socialism, nationalism and European integration : the development of theory and practice." Thesis, Durham University, 1999. http://etheses.dur.ac.uk/4365/.
Full textAbstract:
The late twentieth century has seen a triple crisis on the left: a crisis of socialism in all its mainstream expressions, a crisis of the state, but also a reaffirmation of the appeals of nationalism. The thesis is an attempt to examine the relationship between these developments in the context of the process of European integration. It starts with the difficult relation between socialism and nationalism, from the founding fathers of scientific socialism, through to their followers in the so-called golden age of socialism, and the practice of the Internationals, It looks briefly at the way the German SPD and the French Socialists reacted to the process of European integration, showing the predominance of national interests, which combined with the internal party problems and socialist beliefs, resulted m a confusion manifested in their rhetoric and vocabulary. An account is offered of some socialist thinkers who paid attention to European integration in the 1970s. The French Rocardians, Ernest Mandel and Johan Galtung are shown to have failed to understand the importance of nationalism and remained preoccupied with statism. The exception is Altiero Spinelli, who, as both thinker and practitioner, developed a unique non-doctrinaire vision of socialism, coupled with an understanding of national differences. His federalism and his pro-European stance incorporated notions and ideas that were to dominate the socialist discourse of today. Finally there is an examination of issues that currently dominate the discussion about the future of socialism. These can be divided into arguments about the state, the working class and the new radicalism, and democracy and the ideas of choice, rights, autonomy and the market. Spinelli had touched upon all these issues with a particular reference to European integration and opened up for socialists the European horizon. In conclusion, it is argued that while European integration is not a socialist enterprise, it might be used to further its aims.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis traces the intellectual trajectory of Lorenz Stein (1815-1890), a German legal scholar and political thinker who, despite being a significant theorist during his lifetime, is an obscure figure today, especially in Anglophone scholarship. It focuses on Stein's writings on socialism and argues that they provide crucial insights into the changing nature of socialist thought in the mid-nineteenth century. It contributes to the project of departing from a Marxist interpretation of the history of socialism that has long been predominant, and uses Stein's intellectual biography to illustrate how contingent political, cultural and personal factors have shaped both the creation and reception of socialist ideas.

Vaccaro, Jenanne. "Understanding the Rise of Bernie Sanders." Scholarship @ Claremont, 2017. http://scholarship.claremont.edu/cmc_theses/1632.
Full textAbstract:
The nation stood in either awe or disbelief when Bernie Sanders, a political Independent, only recently turned Democrat, defeated the establishment candidate and former first lady, Hillary Clinton, in the early 2016 New Hampshire primary. As the primaries concluded, it became clear that Sanders’ message resonated. But why was this the case after eight years of “hope and change” under the Obama administration? Furthermore, to what extent did Sanders align with traditional Democrats or traditional Socialists and how can we understand the unprecedented success of a presidential candidate who identifies with socialism? My thesis seeks to answer these puzzles. I do so by: interviewing Sanders supporters, investigating the development of American Socialism and Sanders’ own political identity, and analyzing the economic and social factors leading up to the 2016 primaries. Ultimately, my thesis proposes that Sanders’ ability to win over twelve million votes in the Democratic Party primaries stems from his creation of his own brand of socialism that merged traditional socialist principles of championing the working person with the economic and social realities of twenty first century middle-class America.

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse porte sur les mécanismes et modalités du développement du capitalisme périphérique en Slovénie. Pour étudier l’économie politique slovène de la fin des années quatre-vingt-dix jusqu’au milieu des années deux mille dix, une nouvelle approche, dite de la double transition post-socialiste, est élaborée. Celle-ci se caractérise par les cinq éléments suivants : a) la présupposition que le système socialiste de la Yougoslavie était un système non-capitaliste ; b) le concept marxiste de transition ; c) la distinction analytique entre les niveaux « externe » et « interne » du développement du capitalisme post-socialiste ; d) les concepts d’accumulation primitive néolibérale et d’intégration dépendante ; e) la reconstruction spatio-temporelle de l’analyse du développement des économies post-socialistes. La thèse est composée de six chapitres, les trois premiers étant de nature théorique tandis que les trois derniers portent sur l’analyse de la trajectoire historique de l’économie slovène. Sont étudiées d’abord les études sur le développement des pays post-socialistes s’inspirant de l’approche de « variétés de capitalisme ». Dans un second temps, le concept d’accumulation primitive néolibérale est élaboré à partir des études marxistes sur les pratiques anciennes et contemporaines de l’accumulation primitive. Dans le troisième chapitre, les analyses basées sur la « théorie de la dépendance » et les études critiques du projet européen sont examinées afin de conceptualiser l’intégration dépendante. Le chapitre quatre contextualise la restauration des institutions du système capitaliste en Slovénie au sein de l’effondrement de la Yougoslavie par l’accumulation primitive néolibérale (1979–1989). Ce processus a introduit sur le marché mondial un nouveau territoire du régime de propriété privé capitaliste, régulé par l’Etat Slovène formellement indépendant. Le chapitre cinq étudie comment le développement du capitalisme slovène post-Yougoslave a résulté de l’intensification de la dépendance économique et politique de l’économie slovène sur les structures européennes,engagée pendant l’intégration du pays dans l’Union Européenne et l’Union Européenne et Monétaire (1990–2007). Le dernier chapitre analyse comment, et dans quelle mesure,l’enclenchement de la crise de la zone euro slovène a renforcé la périphérisation de l’économie slovène (2008–2015)<br>This thesis studies the emergence and the development of peripheral capitalism Slovenia. To make an account on the political economy of Slovenia since the late 1980s up to the mid-2010s, this thesis builds on a novel, so-called double post-socialist transition approach that consists of five analytical elements: (1) a presupposition that the socialist system in Yugoslavia was a form of non-capitalist system; (2) a Marxist-inspired concept of transition; (3) an analytical distinction between “internal” and “external” levels in the development of post-socialist capitalism ; (4) two concepts: neoliberal primitive accumulation and dependent integration ; (5) the reconstruction of the analytical space and time.The thesis is divided into six chapters. The studies on the development of post-socialist economies inspired by the Varieties of Capitalism approach are discussed first in order to find research avenues for an alternative theoretical framework. The second chapter elaborates the concept of neoliberal primitive accumulation by examining the Marxist-inspired analysis on past and present practices of primitive accumulation. With respect to the re-integration of the post-socialist economies in the world market, chapter three elaborates the concept of dependent integration, combining insights from the dependency school authors and the critical scholarship on the European integration project. Chapter four contextualises the emergence of capitalist institutions in Slovenia within the demise of Yugoslavia through the neoliberal primitive accumulation (1979–1989). The main outcome of the neoliberal primitive accumulation in Yugoslavia was to “inject” on the world market a new territory of capitalist private property regime regulated by the newly established Slovenian state. Chapter five explores how further development of capitalism in Slovenia was interconnected with the deepening of political and economic dependency of the country on the European political and economic structures (1990–2007). The final chapter discusses how and to what extent the unfolding of the Slovenian Eurozone crisis reinforced the peripherisation of the Slovenian economy (2008–2015)

Previous issue date: 2000<br>Resumo: A Teologia da Libertação é uma reflexão teológica que tem como proposta o
comprometmento político da fé com a realidade histórica sob a perspectiva da luta por
libertação das classes subalternas. Desenvolveu-se em um momento histórico-político da realidade latino-americana no qual o tema da revolução era o elemento mobilizador da cultura política da esquerda. Nesta pesquisa, investigou-se a Teologia da Libertação com
base na reflexão do teólogo brasileiro Leonardo Boff. Utilizou-se como principais referências de análise três livros seus, escritos entre a segunda metade da década de 1970 e início dos anos 80: Teologiado cativeiro e da libertação de 1976, O caminhar da igreja
com os oprimidos de 1980 e Igreja, carisma e poder de 1981. Outros livros de L .Boff, bem como de Clodovis Boff e do teólogo peruano Gustavo Gutiérrez foram utilizados como material de apoio. A Teologia da Libertação foi analisada como elemento integrante
de uma cultura de contraposição à sociedade capitalista. Ao tentar unir a problemática terrena da transição da sociedade capitalista para uma nova sociedade com a temática teológica da libertação, a contraposição de Boff ganhou um caráter progressista, mas na
contramão da modernidade. Apoiou-se em teorias sociais: o marxismo e a teoria da dependência, em sua reformulação teológica, visando a conferir eficácia política a fé. No entanto, a sua contraposição ao capitalismo é mediada pelos princípios do cristianismo
primitivo e se baseia em uma aliança histórica entre o povo brasileiro e o catolicismo. Esses aspectos conferem a sua reflexão uma dimensão romântica, pois ao racional contrapõe o irracional, ao desencantamento do mundo a religiosidade popular e à sociedade a comunidade<br>Abstract: Not informed.<br>Mestrado<br>Mestre em Sociologia

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation departs from the common understanding that the democratic challenge is to strike the right balance between security and democracy; rather it asserts that the relations between security and democracy are discursively constructed by political actors. The dissertation takes as case study a state where the security discourse has been acute and omnipresent since the very beginning of its establishment: Israel. Drawing on discourse theory premises and narrative analyses, the research enlightens how the security-democracy nexus is articulated in political discourse. The study offers a careful analysis of a set of debates held within the Israeli parliament, the Knesset, over laws and decisions taken in the name of security and that generated discussions over democratic values and principles. The main focus of the analysis is the post-second intifada laws, but the study also offers account of previous discursive articulations at play in the 1980s. Indeed, the understanding of the discursive articulations of the security democracy nexus would not be possible without digging into the roots of its discursive articulations. The overall work gives a detailed account of the way the dominant narrative, by articulating security and democracy in a "defensive democracy" story, has reproduced and reshaped the boundaries of the Israeli polity.<br>Doctorat en Sciences politiques et sociales<br>info:eu-repo/semantics/nonPublished
