Chaos, globalization, and the public sphere: political struggle in Iraq and Palestine / LeVine, Mark   Journal Article
LeVine, Mark Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2006.
Summary/Abstract Much of the literature on the contemporary Middle East explores the relationship of strong, authoritarian states with Islamist groups; the professional literature also has examined the role of strong societies with weak states. There has been less study of the role of the various players in weak states with weak societies. This article examines the cases of Palestine and Iraq, two societies undergoing occupation and with weak state structures, and the role of Islamist and other movements within them.

Continuity and change: the changing contours of organized violence in post-new order Indonesia / Wilson, Ian Douglas   Journal Article
Wilson, Ian Douglas Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2006.
Summary/Abstract This article examines the changing nature of organized violence in post-New Order Indonesia. The New Order regime, which ended with the overthrow of Suharto in 1998, employed violence as a central strategy for maintaining political control, both through the state apparatus and via state proxies: criminal and paramilitary groups acting in the state's behalf. In effect, violence and criminality were normalized as state practice. The collapse of the New Order and the resulting fragmentation of its patronage networks have prompted a decline in state-sponsored violence, but at the same time the number of non-state groups employing violence and intimidation as a political, social, and economic strategy has increased. This article looks at this phenomenon of the "democratization" and privatization of organized violence in post-New Order Indonesia via detailed case studies of a number of paramilitary and vigilante groups. While operating in a manner similar to organized crime gangs, each group articulates an ideology that legitimizes the use of force via appeals to ethnicity, class, and religious affiliation. Violence is also justified as an act of necessary rectification rather than direct opposition, in a situation where the state is considered to have failed in providing fundamentals such as security, justice, and employment.

Cross-border spillover: U.S. gun laws and violence in Mexico / Dube, Arindrajit; Dube, Oeindrila; Ponce, Omar García   Journal Article
Dube, Arindrajit Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract To what extent, and under what conditions, does access to arms fuel violent crime? To answer this question, we exploit a unique natural experiment: the 2004 expiration of the U.S. Federal Assault Weapons Ban exerted a spillover on gun supply in Mexican municipios near Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico, but not near California, which retained a pre-existing state-level ban. We find first that Mexican municipios located closer to the non-California border states experienced differential increases in homicides, gun-related homicides, and crime gun seizures after 2004. Second, the magnitude of this effect is contingent on political factors related to Mexico's democratic transition. Killings increased disproportionately in municipios where local elections had become more competitive prior to 2004, with the largest differentials emerging in high narco-trafficking areas. Our findings suggest that competition undermined informal agreements between drug cartels and entrenched local governments, highlighting the role of political conditions in mediating the gun-crime relationship.

Diasporic women and acculturation: exploring Jhumpa Lahiri's the namesake / Gupta, Sanju   Journal Article
Gupta, Sanju Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract Diasporas are the human face of the globalization process. The contemporary importance of Diasporas can be related to the seemingly contradictory historical processes of consolidation of national cultural identities and large international migrations. Though the phenomenon of migration is as old as the existence of humanity, international migration on a large scale started during colonial times. Labour demand, political conflicts, technological changes and trade and commerce together, contribute to international migration becoming one the most important determinant of modern global change. This paper attempts to explain the cross cultural conflicts, trauma, isolation, aspirations and dilemmas of the Indian Women immigrants in Jhumpa Lahiri's The Namesake , especially Aashima Ganguly, who find herself in between the native culture and host culture and her trishanku experience of being neither in Calcutta nor in America which is at the very centre of diasporic trauma. Ashima is a true representative of the majority of women expatriates who are reluctant to change or adapt to the culture of the host country. But still she sacrifices all her comforts for the sake of her family and like the typical traditional Indian women; her life revolves around her husband and children.
