Britain and terrorism : a sociogenetic investigation

Dunning, Michael January 2014 (has links)
This thesis is a sociogenetic investigation of terrorism that has been directed against Britain since the late eighteenth century. One of its most fundamental aims is to help lay the foundations of a figurational approach to the study of terrorism. Accordingly, I seek to answer two core and interrelated questions and apply the findings to develop an understanding of the processes and relationships that have contributed to the emergence of home-grown ‘jihadist terrorism’ in Britain. Those questions are: i) Under what figurational conditions have the concepts of terrorism and terrorist developed, in sociogenetic terms, since they were first coined during the first French Revolution in the late eighteenth century? ii) Under what figurational conditions do people act according to various designations of terrorism? In order to develop answers to these questions several kinds of terrorism figurations related to Britain are examined. The first three chapters are dedicated to exploring the research on terrorism that has grown in recent decades. Much of it fails to develop an understanding of terrorism that has sufficient detachment, and consequently can help, in some cases, to perpetuate terrorism figurations. Subsequent chapters move away from these mainstream approaches and show how terrorism figurations have developed in Britain from the time the concept ‘terrorism’ was first coined during the French Revolution. The core findings relate to how terrorism developed in antithesis to the concept of civilisation, and emerged as part of complex inter- and intra-state relationships and established-outsider figurations. As part of these processes, functional democratisation played a key role both in Britain and in Britain’s relations to other countries. Finally, I show that these processes have been central to the development of the habituses and identities of the July 7 2005 London bombers.

Razões, sentimentos e projetos profissionais: experiência dos vestibulandosas (Vitória, ES, 2009 - 2010) / Reasons, feelings and professional projects: experiences of high school students (Vitória,ES, year 2009-2010)

Dar nitidez aos sentimentos e razões que emergem das experiências dos vestibulandos de Vitória-ES, entre 2009-2010, e que os movem em direção a seus projetos profissionais é objetivo deste trabalho. A noção de projeto aqui utilizada (VELHO, 1999) afasta-se da clássica compreensão liberal do ser humano, autônomo, livre e único, responsável por seus sucessos e fracassos, subjacente a estudos sobre escolha profissional. A ideia proposta é que campo de experiências dos sujeitos marca seus projetos profissionais, mas que suas condutas deliberadas, não necessariamente racionais, expõem certas expectativas de vida, quaisquer que sejam as posições sociais desses sujeitos. Para o exame dessas expectativas, esses sujeitos foram vistos em suas relações sociais - nas interseções de classes, gênero, de cor da pele, de gerações, etc. Reconheceu-se, ainda, que razões e sentimentos (WILLIAMS, 1969), também forjam projetos profissionais de sujeitos sob diversas condições sociais e apesar delas. Por considerar que esses projetos portam manifestações humanas, nem sempre perceptíveis e tantas vezes encobertas, a metáfora do rizoma (DELEUZE; GUATTARI, 2004), foi de utilidade metodológica. Alguns indícios (GINZBURG, 2007), sugeriram caminhos de pesquisa e alguns dos significados aos sujeitos para que esses projetos pudessem ser detectados. A perspectiva da longa duração histórica e dos tempos múltiplos presidiu o exame de trajetórias selecionadas de um conjunto de sujeitos pesquisados entre os anos 2009-2010, o que favoreceu a percepção de continuidades históricas, mas também a ocorrência de mudanças de certas tendências sociais. Dois cursos de pré-vestibular, um público e um privado, em Vitória, ES, nessa conjuntura, mostraram um pouco da pluralidade de expectativas de diferentes jovens - pobres, de classes média e alta, homens e mulheres, brancos, negros e pardos, mais novos e mais velhos em relação ao ensino superior presente em seus projetos profissionais. Razões e sentimentos que os movem e que se movem, nem sempre examinados em estudos sobre a matéria, foram expostos. Contribuições de Elias (1990), de R. Williams (1969), de Bourdieu (2003, 2009), de E. P. Thompson (2002), de Löwy (1990), entre outros, apoiaram evidências de que as relações indivíduo e sociedade, sempre plurais e complexas, expressam apenas partes de seus sentidos civilizadores. Para reduzir incertezas, recorreu-se a dados macrossociais e microssociais (REVEL, 1998). Entrevistas com tais jovens e coordenadores de seus cursos, observações advindas de dinâmica de grupo e, também, exame de publicações oficiais, de periódicos de divulgação de matéria sobre vestibular, entre 2009-2010, situaram um trato de escalas analíticas de difícil exercício. Para além das relações de classes, gênero, cor da pele, geração etc., pode-se concluir que esses sujeitos, por razões e sentimentos variados, com seus projetos profissionais, tanto se deslocam de suas posições sociais de origem como as mantêm, mas todos, em suas novas experiências e de diferentes modos, também se preparam para atuar sobre os sentidos civilizadores de seu tempo. / Provide clarity to the feelings and reasons that emerge from the experiences of the students in Vitória-ES, between 2009-2010, and what move them toward their professional projects is the goal of this work. The notion of design used here (Velho, 1999) differs from the classical liberal understanding of human being, autonomous, free and unique, responsible for their successes and failures, underlie to studies on "career choice". The proposed idea is that the field experiences of the subjects mark their professional projects, but their deliberate conduct, not necessarily rational, expose certain life expectations, whatever is the social position of these individuals. To test these expectations, these subjects were seen in their social relations on the intersections of class, gender, ethnicity, generations, etc. It was recognized also that the reasons and feelings (WILLIAMS, 1969) also forge professional projects of subjects under different social conditions and in spite of them. Considering that these projects carry human manifestations not always visible, often covered, the metaphor of "rhizome" (DELEUZE; GUATTARI, 2004) was useful as methodology. Evidences (GINZBURG, 2007) suggested research paths and some of the meanings attributed by those subject to these projects could be detected. The prospect of long-term historical and multiple times chaired the examination of trajectories of a selected group of subjects studied between the years 2009-2010, which favored the perception of historical continuities, but also the occurrence of certain changes in social trends. Two pre-university courses, one public and one private, in Vitória, ES, at this juncture, showed a bit of a plurality of different expectations of young people - poor, middle and upper classes, men and women, whites, blacks and browns, younger and older in relation to high school - present in their professional projects. Reasons and feelings that move them and that move is not always considered in studies on the subject, were exposed. Contributions of Elias (1990), Williams (1969), Bourdieu (2003, 2009), E. P. Thompson (2002), Löwy (1990), among others, supported evidences that the relation between individual and society, always plural and complex, express only parts of their civilizing senses. To reduce uncertainties, it was used macro and micro data (Revel, 1998). Interviews with these teenagers and advisers, observations from group dynamics and also examination of official publications, periodicals to disseminate material on vestibular, between 2009-2010, were located a tract of analytical scales difficult to exercise. Apart from relations of class, gender, skin color, generation, etc., is possible to conclude that these subjects, for reasons and various feelings, with their professional projects, move are not from their social origin, but all of them, in their new experiences and different ways, also prepare themselves to act on the senses civilizing of his time.
