	Venezuela and the Popular Movement Raul Zelik interviews Roland Denis
		While the revolutionary movement made an impressive leap in those days-we should not forget that it was the popular movements that defeated the 47hour dictatorship of Pedro Carmona-the state has assumed a more conservative position since then.
		It reflects the demands and the objectives of the popular movements.
		In the past 18 months the popular movement defeated the right twice and in the armed forces at least there is a considerable sector that would resist an extreme right-wing offensive.

	Organizing and Repression: 1978: The popular movement
		Movement leaders debated whether to increase their actions or retreat in the face of a possible army mobilization.
		Far from a quiet celebration of a distant popular victory, the rally was an opportunity to condemn the new wave of state terror.
		The existence of this movement, and its achievements in 1977 and 1978, had increased the expectations of the urban population for a change in the country.

	The road ahead for the Iranian peoples’ freedom movement
		The fact that this movement has been unable to adapt itself to the changing circumstances, to materialise all its potentials and abilities and act as a unremitting and growing pressure on the ruling faction.
		If we understand the anti-despotic movement of the Iranian people to be the sum of protests against the absolute rule of the clergy over them [2] and against their policies its antecedents go back to the beginning of 1990’s.
		The popular movement had to go on to challenge their power to control; to move from encircling them into moving to break them; to evolve from isolating them into bringing them down.

		Popular education is an approach that critically examines and learns from the lessons of past struggles, and from concrete everyday situations in the present.
		Popular education values and respects people as their own experts, and challenges the notion that the educator or organizer's role is as an expert who works "for" people.
		In Canada one of the historical antecedents of popular education was the Antigonish Movement in the Atlantic provinces, where education and study circles were central to the organizing of fisher and farmer co-ops as early as the 19302.

	The Islamic Resistance Movement “Hamas”
		It is also a popular movement in the sense that it is a practical manifestation of a wide popular current that is deeply rooted in the ranks of the Palestinian people and the Islamic nation.
		The Hamas movement groups in its ranks all those who believe in its ideology and principles and all who are prepared to endure the consequences of the conflict and to confront the Zionist scheme.
		Movement was issued on December 15, 1987, marking a new phase in the Jihad of the Palestinians against the tyrant Zionist occupation, a phase where the Islamic trend was the spearhead of resistance.

	Conversation with Professor Ray B. Browne \|\| Americana: The Journal Of American Popular Culture 1900-Present
		Clearly, popular culture studies would not be where it is today—if it would even exist at all—without the contributions of this important scholar.
		Popular culture is the way of life in which and by which most people in any society live.
		Popular culture is the voice of democracy, democracy speaking and acting, the seedbed in which democracy grows.

	The 2004 World Social Forum
		The latter is a community-based popular education organization bringing scholar, student, labor, and low-income activists together on the basis of equality to build a bottom-up movement in the United States as part of today’s global movement for justice and equality.
		MR created a safe space for a variety of socialist, communist, women’s and social movement organizations who wanted to clearly state that their vision for “another world” is socialism, that capitalism cannot be reformed, and that this space is open to all who support that world.
		To build a popular bottom-up movement requires popular forms of education and communication, but these popular forms have yet to be widely accepted by session and workshop organizers who still seem to prefer “talking heads” and “passive participants.” Movement building for global transformation brings together theoretical analysis and political practice in a new movement.

		In particular, unlike in Iraq and Afghanistan, Iran has a genuine popular pro-democracy movement with a clear, but yet to be achieved, demand for a democratic political system, whose roots can be traced back to the second half of the 19th century.
		The pro-democracy movement reappeared in the early 1960s, only to be suppressed again in 1963 as the Shah consolidated his power.
		Thus, whereas the popular movement demanded a radical change, ie, the replacement of the religious regime with a secular democratic one, Khatami and his faction in totality advocated limited reforms of the existing theocracy to ensure its survival.

	The Revolutionary Struggle in Ecuador
		The movement of the landless peasants expresses the will of the popular masses and the peasants in particular to fight for land and their political rights, in Mexico, Guatemala, Brazil and in the south of Argentina.
		Popular power is the dictatorship of the working masses under the leadership of the working class.
		All political forces were active, the popular movement on the one hand and the parties of the bourgeoisie on the other hand.

		Popular discontent exploded in two mass and creative mobilizations in 2006: that of the anti-fraud movement over the presidential elections and the Oaxaca insurgency and commune.
		The possibilities for the resurgence of the Oaxacan popular movement will be conditioned by developments both at the state and the national level.
		There is, however, a continuing vitality to movements of resistance in Oaxaca and no end in sight to the continuing assault of neo-liberalism and repression.

		However, the most striking example of the role of ecological movement in national awakening was the mass protest in autumn, 1988, in Azerbaijan against the self-willed construction of the aluminium plant by Armenia in the place of Topkhana in Nagorno- Karabakh.
		Conversely, the popular movements in Georgia and Azerbaijan were created initially to deal with the threat to the territorial integrity of the republics rather than with the independence issues.
		The evolution of the independence movement in Armenia was accompanied by the Dashnaktsutsiun party’s strong opposition to the secession from the USSR.

		The animus was very much against academia: "Popular Culture was to us was the everyday, the vernacular, the heritage and ways of life that we inherited from our predecessors, used and passed on to our descendants.
		Popular Culture probably should not include some ten percent of so-called elite culture, but it should include all folk culture.
		Browne say the role of the journal and the organization to focus on items not covered by popular culture: "they would try to be more 'serious,' and surely would include studies that were hardly appropriate in the study of popular culture.

		As the labor movement’s membership came mainly from the oil and public sectors, it was more easily co-opted by government.
		This leadership injected the movement with an ideology based on seeking privilege rather than establishing class solidarity with the vast majority of workers who remained outside the formal economy and unorganized.

		But dietary reformers, for all the oddities and eccentricities that may be assigned in hindsight, provide an interesting window on the anxieties of an age and a people’s physical, emotional, and mental relationship with that vital element to human survival: food; it is therefore a subject that is worthy of serious historical investigation.
		In the United States, the popular health movement of the nineteenth century is also often noted for its role in the creation of the ready-to-eat breakfast cereal industry, a cultural and economic institution particular to this nation.
		Popular health often rests on the concept that society in general is plagued by maladies, diseases, and psychological ills caused by improper habits, and that the individual—not the trained physician—possesses the remedies necessary to stay on the right track.

		Their stories, of personal histories aligned with the movement since its very inception, are the ones that may best shed light on how women have helped create a widespread and lasting popular resistance in Oaxaca.
		Leyla was a student at the state university as well as a member of the Committee in Defense of the People’s Rights (CODEP) when the widespread popular movement arose; as her organizing work and responsibilities within the movement grew, she was soon forced to leave her studies behind.
		Her example speaks to the critical role that both students and women have played in the popular movement, and her narrative of August 1 speaks to her continued sense of awe and pride in its accomplishments.

	EconPapers: The Popular Movement Marinade – The dominant civil society framework in Sweden
		In the analysis of the interviews, we focus on the use of two central aspects that often are seen as central for the understanding of the popular movement concept – membership and democracy.
		In the paper, we argue that this strong popular movement tradition or understanding represents something so heavily embedded and well institutionalised in Sweden that it often seems to be taken for granted.
		The popular movement tradition can be described as a frame so strong that not only civil society social practice but also thinking could be understood as more or less marinated in it (see also Wijkström 2004a; Wijkström, Einarsson et al.

	To Remember Spain / An Overview of the Spanish Libertarian Movement
		The Francoist forces or "Nationalists," as they were to call themselves, exhibited all the trappings and ideologies of the fascist movements of the day: the raised open-palm salute, the appeals to a "folk-soil" philosophy of order, duty, and obedience, and the avowed commitments to smash the labor movement and end all political dissidence.
		Accordingly, the organizational framework of the movement (as expressed in the IWMA, the CNT, and the FAI) was meant to be decentralized, to allow for the greatest degree of initiative and decision-making at the base, and to provide structural guarantees against the formation of a bureaucracy.
		It was not their goal to produce a large "mass movement" of workers who wore lightly the trappings of libertarian ideals, but to help create dedicated anarchists in an authentically revolutionary movement, however small its size or influence.

		The Popular Rights Movement was responsibile for focusing attention on the issues of political freedoms and individual rights, as well as upon the theory and practice of representative government.
		At the same time, this kind of violence created fissures in the movement as the interests of the landlord class began to be differentiated from the poorer peasants who flocked to "debtor" parties and poor people's parties.
		The movement thus established a robust tradition of peaceful opposition to the state, very different from the peasant uprisings of the late Tokugawa period or the samurai violence of the 1870s.

		One is the growing understanding among the organized sector of labor of the interpenetration of worker and oppressed peoples struggles, i.e., workers cannot be organized solely on the basis of workplace issues, and that the totality of their lives must be addressed.
		Three is the powerful movement and leadership of women in all sectors of the struggle, e.g., in labor, especially the unorganized construction sector, slum dwellings and against communalism (right wing fundamentalism).
		Capitalist globalization in the electronic age and militarism are creating the conditions for developing the consciousness, vision and strategy for a popular movement that is locally grounded, nationally networked and globally connected.

		It had gone through a great crisis in the 1980s—only the student movement had managed to maintain a movement in struggle, while the peasants’ movement and the workers’ movement, the popular movements in the barrios, weakened greatly.
		After the coup of 2002 took place and the popular movement brought Chavez back to power, and during the three-year period of the fascist conspiracy, the popular groups began to unite to defend the government.
		That meant that a section of the movement was annexed by the government elite which in reality had very little to do with the popular movement.

		My intention in this paper is to examine the development of the MPLA (Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola), the most 'left-wing' of the three major national-liberation movements which arose in Angola during the colonial period, and the movement which was finally successful in establishing itself as the Government of an 'independent' Angola.
		I suggest that the creation of a disciplined hierarchy within the movement was not a response to military exigencies, but rather a logical consequence of the political commitments and concepts of the MPLA leadership.
		They needed their 'mass movement' if they were to have any hope of riding to power, but mass movements have a tendency to throw up autonomous or 'deviationist' tendencies.

		The antiwar movement was bigger in part because more white people were willing to take and active stand against a war that put thousands of white soldiers at risk than had been prepared to take an active stand in defense of civil rights for fl people.
		Building the mass movement and mass action are the methods that can win victory both in the civil rights movement and in the struggle to stop a new racist war on Iraq.
		We need popular antiwar and antiracist leaders who can speak the truth about these issues, leaders who can make clear how the issues are connected and know that it is the mass democracy of the street that is the power that can defeat the attack on affirmative action and a new US war in Iraq.
