	Theses from Uppsala University : 74 - Pro-welfare politics
		More specifically, it seeks to uncover the political mechanisms behind the changes in public welfare program structure by examining important driving forces at a macro level, then by relating this to political processes at the micro level.
		In the macro analysis, the relative explanatory power of core driving forcesbehind welfare efforts is examined using a pooled time series analysis of 12 European countries for the period between 1960 and 1989.
		The microanalysis is devoted to uncovering mechanisms of pro-welfare politics by analyzing the complex internal relationships of those pro-welfare politics.This is approached using a theoretical framework of "welfare statuses of rights and duties" as an alternative to the class-based cleavage framework.

	Politics and Culture
		As they were inscribed on the bodies of her âoutlaw heroines,â and ultimately on the dying body of Acker herself, we can see a painful example of how the power of political inscription run between textual and physical bodies like a writing that refuses to respect the limits of its book.
		Instead, Ackerâs prose is an accentuation of movement, and a celebration of the event of the political, of the philosophical and the literary.
		The political and philosophical becomes so dirty, so soiled by bodies that refuse to become abstractions of any higher discourse and instead tie the political and philosophical to themselves like in the sadomasochistic impulses that propel the text.

	MOST Ethno-Net publication: Anthropology of Africa
		Even so, social reality may impose its demands on political developments; firstly, that so many people still live in their tribal areas, still influenced by tribal life still conversant with tribal customs, and secondly that tribal identity continues to maintain some hold over many who have physically departed their ancestral heartland.
		We must continually attack the political and ideological manipulations by which the concepts of "tribe' and 'tribalism' are used as a tool by the powers who dominate and oppress the young nations of the Third World.
		Part of the tragedy of the present political situation in Africa is that "...the alien state mode was imposed on the indigenous systems of authority with such a vigor that in many parts of the continent whole nations lost their identity and orientation."(92)

		Simons Island, Ga.: The political dividing line in the debate on global warming (or climate change to use the neutral term) is very clear: to remedy the cause of global warming will require a massive shift of power from the private to the public sector.

	Chin Human Rights Organization - CHRO - A STRUGGLE FOR SELF-DETERMINATION IN BURMA:
		The concept of self-determination, as we all know, is rather a new phenomenon in world history; it came into being only after French Revolution, together with the idea of the “nation” as the whole people, as the object of ultimate political loyalty, and as endowed with an alienable right to self-determination and separate statehood.
		So, the challenge here is to find a political and legal system which will allow us to rule our respective homelands by ourselves, and at same time living peacefully together with others.
		Politics is about making compromises and the ENC is willing to discuss options if the SPDC considers modifying its 7- points Road Map.

	Polity, Contingency & Conceptual Change (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		When dealing with Weber as political theorist we cannot neglect his pamphlets, but should, rather, read out of it fragments of political theorizing that either provides a continuation of his academic analyses or complement them with topics never dealt with in them.
		Similarly, it is obvious that Weber's theoretical views, for example those on knowledge and history, play a decisive heuristic role for the understanding of his interventions in contemporary political debate, in their concept formation, rhetorical point, situational analysis and normative commitments.
		As a political theorist he had distinctive style(s)of his own, mediated by genres, rhetoric and current situation, which the Weber industry still has not properly appreciated.

		I argue that capitalism remains rooted in nations, even in markets where there are global participants, and this reflects the historical construction of national economic and political elites and the resulting social organization that lie at the bases of their governments and economies.
		For different theoretical and political reasons, both economics and marxism want to have economic forces be structural, inevitable, and everywhere dominating action.
		A good case in point is the Mexican situation where a recent dissertation argued that domestic politics was behind all of the changes in financial policy in the past 20 years (Kessler, 1997).

		The difficulties entailed by the ECPR’s insistence on moving the summer schools to a different host institution every year were predictable, and we are assured that the ECPR will be rethinking its policy on summer schools as a result of this experience.

		Moreover, the interplay between states at the global political arena is studied at the department.
		The Uppsala Chair in Eloquence and Government was established in 1622 by Johan Skytte, the first Chancellor of Uppsala University.
		The purpose was to analyse the relationship between modes of mobilisation and the structures of authority in these political parties, that undeniably, although in different degrees and on different ground bestow on their leaders eminence beyond the formal position of rank.

		Layme, a pioneer advocate for Aymara bilingual education, is critical of the indigenist pretensions of established political parties but unperturbed by the fact that syndicalists frequently mobilize supporters using the same traditional Aymara social structures and forms of leadership he claims for the “cultural struggle” (34).
		One wonders why indigenous people talking about their politics shouldn’t at least have the option of expressing themselves in the same analytical language as foreign scholars—or indeed, why foreign scholars shouldn’t be obliged to produce testimonies themselves.
		Second, the diversity among the political languages treated in the volume begs the question of whether “identity politics” is best understood as an analytic concept or as an object of study.

		It may turn out that the political framework of the 20th century—in which conservative and moderate factions in each of the two parties overlapped, and shifting bipartisan coalitions were always the way things got done—was the anomaly, a living fossil dating from the peculiar history of the post-Reconstruction South.
		One of the arguments of the 1950 political scientists was for this very result, to reduce the influence of "the pressure groups," because ideas would move through the parties rather than through external, unaccountable groups.
		Their project, the 2005 Racial Attitudes and the Katrina Disaster Study, is the first to analyze racial differences in reactions to the reporting of the tragedy and people’s attitudes toward the responsibilities of the victims to avoid the disaster.
