  • Gorros frigios en la Guerra Fría. El socialismo republicano de E. P. Thompson
    'Edicions de la Universitat de Barcelona', 2021
    Co-Authors: Martínez-cava Aguilar Julio
    Abstract:

    La tradición socialista fue heredera y continuadora del republicanismo democrático moderno. E. P. Thompson, como historiador e intelectual comunista, reivindicó de forma precursora los valores jacobinos e ilustrados frente a las ortodoxias intelectuales de la Guerra Fría que dividieron Europa. Al hacerlo, construyó un socialismo democrático, inspirado en la historia británica y en el internacionalismo de los Frentes Populares, que nutriría el activismo de la New Left y del movimiento pacifista. Crear una cultura política democrática, frenar la influencia de la riqueza y aumentar y dar un nuevo sentido a los derechos democráticos fueron los objetivos de este socialismo jacobino.The socialist tradition inherited and continued the values of modern democratic republicanism. E. P. Thompson, as a historian and communist intellectual, broke new ground in vindicating Jacobin and Enlightenment values against the intellectual orthodoxies of the Cold War that divided Europe. In doing so, he built a democratic socialism, inspired by British history and the internationalism of the Popular Fronts, which would nourish the activism of the New Left and the Peace Movement. Creating a democratic political culture, curbing the influence of wealth, and broadening and giving new meaning to democratic rights were the goals of this Jacobin socialism

  • protest cyberactivism and new social Movements the reemergence of the Peace Movement post 9 11
    Social Movement Studies, 2006
    Co-Authors: Victoria Carty, Jake Onyett
    Abstract:

    This paper examines ways in which the Internet and alternative forms of media have enhanced the global, yet grassroots, political mobilization in the anti-war effort in the post 9/11 environment. An examination of the role of cyberactivism in the Peace Movement enhances our understanding of social Movements and contentious politics by analyzing how contemporary social Movements are using advanced forms of technology and mass communication as a mobilizing tool and a conduit to alternative forms of media. These serve as both a means and target of protest action and have played a critical role in the organization and success of internal political mobilizing.

  • framing national security elite public discourse on nuclear weapons during the cold war
    Political Communication, 1995
    Co-Authors: David S Meyer
    Abstract:

    Political discourse can provoke, preempt, or quell social Movements, identifying which issues are most accessible for challenge and how. Movements are not simply reactive, however, and can affect public discourse, forcing political leaders and established elites to respond to their concerns. As a result public discourse may reflect the conflict between various actors, as challengers seek to redefine the issues of their concerns and shape viable political solutions. Challengers offer alternative “frames” for ordering consideration of political issues, creating contests both between activists and mainstream media within mainstream media. This article analyzes the “framing” of national security in elite discourse on nuclear weapons and the Soviet Union and its relationship to the broader political climate, including Peace Movement activism. I compare specialized political discourse, expert strategic discourse, and scientific public discourse from 1945 to 1989. I identify three “master frames” regarding natio...

  • creating transnational solidarity the use of narrative in the u s central america Peace Movement
    Mobilization: An International Quarterly, 2001
    Co-Authors: Sharon Erickson Nepstad
    Abstract:

    As social problems become increasingly global, activists are working across state boundaries and forming transnational social Movements. However, there is little information that illuminates how groups are able to overcome ethnic, class, ideological and cultural differences that could be obstacles to collaboration. Through an analysis of the story of Salvadoran martyr Archbishop Romero, I demonstrate how this narrative fostered solidarity between the progressive Central American church and U.S. Christians. By symbolically mirroring the social ontology of Christianity and melodramatically presenting the Salvadoran conflict with moral clarity, Romero's life story facilitated the construction of a transnational collective identity and provided a model of action. The moral credibility of the narrators, and the context in which Romero's story was told, influenced many Christians' decision to prioritize this religious identity over their national allegiance.

  • the process of cognitive liberation cultural synapses links and frame contradictions in the u s central america Peace Movement
    Sociological Inquiry, 1997
    Co-Authors: Sharon Erickson Nepstad
    Abstract:

    Based upon qualitative interviews with thirty-two Central American Peace activists, this article elaborates the process of “cognitive liberation” through the application of frame analysis. In addition, I seek to explain the diffusion of this social-psychological state from Central to North America. Attention is given to the role of the church as a common cultural link that functioned as a micro-mobilizing context, which provided missionaries who served as “meso-mobilizing actors.” The term frame contradictions is introduced to specify the condition in which irreconcilable differences between a Movement’s frame and its opponent’s frame are exposed, thereby facilitating frame adoption. I conclude that some type of cultural link is necessary for the development of a common frame that can integrate groups cross-nationally and that can provide agents of mobilization to serve as a synapse through which frames can be transmitted from one country to another.
