1	[en] THE SILENT HERO: GEORGE PADMORE, DIASPORA E PAN-AFRICANISM / [pt] THE SILENT HERO: GEORGE PADMORE, DIÁSPORA E PAN-AFRICANISMO PABLO DE OLIVEIRA DE MATTOS 18 February 2019 (has links) [pt] Ivan Meredith Nurse nasceu na colônia britânica de Trinidad, em 1902, e migrou para os Estados Unidos, em 1924, a fim de prosseguir com seus estudos. Tornou-se um militante antirracista nos Estados Unidos dos tempos de Jim Crow, entrou para o movimento comunista internacional, e mudou de nome, passando a chamar-se George Padmore em 1929. Em 1930 já era um dos comunistas negros mais conhecidos a serviço de Moscou, responsável por articular uma internacional de trabalhadores negros a partir de Hamburgo, Alemanha. Em 1934, rompe com o Comintern e com Stálin, embora siga enquanto marxista e defensor do modelo Soviético de estado. Entre 1935 e 1957 foi o grande articulador da resistência anticolonial e anti-imperial a partir de Londres. Padmore foi um dos principais pensadores Pan-Africanistas, artífice do Quinto Congresso Pan-Africano de Manchester, em 1945, e arquiteto da independência da Costa do Ouro, em 1957. A análise da trajetória e do pensamento político de George Padmore evidencia a experiência da Diáspora Negra e permite compreender a sistematização de uma ideologia Pan-Africana centrada nas massas africanas, na emancipação do continente africano e na construção dos Estados Socialistas Africanos. George Padmore escreveu artigos em jornais de diversos territórios coloniais, mas também em periódicos da metrópole. Também produziu obras que buscaram guiar e pautar o movimento anti-imperial e as lutas anticoloniais. Esta tese pretende apresentar este Herói Silencioso em seu contexto linguístico, junto de outros intelectuais negros tais como, W.E.B. Du Bois, Claude McKay, C.L.R. James, Kwame Nkrumah, a fim de evidenciar o vocabulário político Pan-Africano da primeira metade do século XX. / [en] Ivan Meredith Nurse was born in the British colony of Trinidad in 1902 and moved to the United States in 1924 to pursue his studies. He became an anti-racist militant in the Jim Crow s United States, joined the international communist movement, and changed his name to George Padmore in 1929. By 1930, he was already one of the best-known black communists in the service of Moscow, responsible for coordinating a black workers international from Hamburg, Germany. In 1934, he broke with the Comintern and Joseph Stalin, although he continued as a Marxist and defender of the Soviet state model. Between 1935 and 1957, he was the great articulator of anti-colonial and anti-imperial resistance from London. Padmore was a leading Pan-Africanist thinker, organizer of the Fifth Pan-African Congress of Manchester in 1945, and architect of the Gold Coast s independence in 1957. The analysis of George Padmore s trajectory and political thinking allow to evidenciate the experience of the Back Diaspora and allows us to understand the systematization of a Pan-African ideology centered on the African masses, the emancipation of the African continent and the building of African Socialist States. George Padmore wrote articles in newspapers of various colonial territories, but also in journals of the metropolis. He also produced works that sought to guide the anti-imperial movement and anticolonial struggles. This thesis intends to present this Silent Hero in its linguistic context, along with other black intellectuals such as, W.E.B. Du Bois, Claude McKay, C.L.R. James, Kwame Nkrumah, in order to evidence the Pan-African political vocabulary of the first half of the twentieth century.

2	An “empire” without imperialism? A study of the Soviet-colonial dialectic from the October Revolution to its defeat Strandlund, Tyson Riel 22 October 2021 (has links) An analysis of Soviet history and political thought in the context of imperialism and colonialism This study attempts to clarify problems with dominant liberal narratives and historiography relating to the Soviet Union, particularly relating to questions of empire and colonialism, and instead platforms Third World Marxists and other anti-imperialist scholars and revolutionaries whose views have been effectively sidelined and stifled. By tracing the history of political thought around these questions from pre-revolutionary Marxists through to Cold War era anti-colonial and pan-African scholars and revolutionaries alongside developments in the dynamic and forms of imperialism, and by situating anti-colonial nationalisms in the context of worldmaking rather than state building, this text aims to contribute to analyses of Soviet policy and its relationship to the global history of decolonisation in the 20th Century. This work identifies serious theoretical and ideological deficiencies in existing literature and concludes that concise definitions of imperialism and empire such as those used by V.I. Lenin and Kwame Nkrumah are not consistent with commonly held beliefs about the role played by the Soviet Union in the history of anti-colonial and national liberation movements. Western liberal literature on this subject has suffered significantly as a result of political and ideological prejudices stemming directly from the US Cold War victory and psychological warfare campaigns targeting communist and anti-colonial movements to this end. My research indicates that misidentification and misuse of terms relating to empire and colonialism pose serious obstacles and risks to present and future efforts geared towards global peace and equality which add urgency to the correction of mistakes both in scholarly and popular historical, political, and cultural approaches to interpretations of Soviet history. / Graduate Soviet History Decolonisation Racism Imperialism National Liberation Colonialism Africa Anti-Imperialism Asia Cold War Communism Cosmopolitanism Engels Ethno-nationalism European History Fascism George Padmore Global History Historical Materialism Hitler India KUTV Kwame Nkrumah Lenin Marx Marxism M.N.
