ABSTRACT A CRITICAL EVALUATION OF THE SOCIALIST JOURNAL AYDINLIK WITHIN A MARXIAN THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK G&uuml / ndogan, Ercan Ph.D., Department of Political Science and Public Administration Supervisor: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mehmet Okyayuz July 2005, 855 pages The thesis concerns with the conception of class and revolution in Marxian meta-theory and examines its reception by the Turkish Marxist left through an analysis of the Socialist Journal Aydinlik (1968-1971). Survey demonstrates that the reception is obscured by strategic debates, and is also not perfectly realized due to the needs of the rapid development of the Turkish socialist left after 1960s. Marxian theory is used mainly to justify the national democratic revolutionary strategy which is presented as only valid strategy, against socialist revolutionary strategy. National Democratic Revolutionary strategy is suggested to close the gap between Marxian framework which exclusively focuses on the proletarian socialist politics and the undeveloped revolutionary conditions of the underdeveloped societies. However, this gap is closed only at the expense of creating new gaps between Marx and the country. Class phenomena are analyzed in the framework of the imperialism-feudalism-comprador bourgeoisie alliance and popular or national classes. This strategy suggests that only after national democratic revolution is perfectly completed, socialist revolutionary struggle can be valid. It thereby postpones the possibility of socialist struggle and hence Marx to an undetermined future.

On October 15th, 2017, the American actress Alyssa Milan posted a tweet on the Social Media Platform Twitter which soon would have led to major consequences for people across the globe. Milano urged her followers to comment “#metoo” on the post if they had ever been subjected to sexual harassment or abuse – an action of hers which quickly evolved into a widespread campaign in USA as well as in other countries, there among Sweden. With #metoo's great impact, we now have a unique opportunity to explore today's gender equality debate and feminist discourse based on the new type of networking community. Thus, this study aims – with a comparative as well as a charting intention – to further explore the #metoo phenomenon based on media reporting from the largest daily newspaper in Sweden (Dagens Nyheter) and in the USA (USA Today). The main purpose is to investigate how the journalism takes place in relation to contemporary gender discourse and how it differs between these two countries; which in the long run aims to contribute to increased knowledge about the inherent gender equality issues of #metoo and the discursive image of these problems each media has chosen to reproduce to their fellow residents. The method used in the study is sorted under a qualitative content analysis focusing on the interpretation and understanding of contentive meaningful aspects. Results show that articles from USA Today and Dagens Nyheter differ a lot in how they relate to theoretical concepts of performativity, normalization, power, and a broader understanding of gender structures. Correspondingly, large differences can be identified in how the articles relate – or lack to relate – to a further perception of "a male perpetrator" and "a female victim”. This variation is primarily derived from a lack of structural thinking in relation to perceptions about gender at the expense of a more individual- and celebrity- focused journalistic view but could also be partly correlated to an absent lingua franca within the gender discourse of these two countries.

Orientador: Alberto Aggio / Banca: Adriane Vidal Costa / Banca: Marcos Sorrilha Pinheiro / Resumo: No presente trabalho buscamos investigar os fundamentos da elaboração, desenvolvimento e repercussão da ―teoria da revolução latino-americana‖ produzida pelo intelectual francês Régis Debray, especialmente a partir da análise do seu livro Revolução na Revolução, publicado em 1967. As formulações de Debray, inspiradas na revolução cubana de 1959, marcaram profundamente a cultura política da esquerda latino-americana a partir da década de 1960. Suas teses influenciaram a esquerda radicalizada regional, que adotou a luta armada como única alternativa para realização e consolidação do projeto revolucionário no continente. Régis Debray envolveu-se com a revolução cubana mais do que qualquer outro intelectual da esquerda ocidental, transformando-se em um dos seus principais ideólogos. A partir de sua experiência com os cubanos, Debray criaria a teoria do ―foco‖, e essa cumpriu, especialmente na década de 1960, o papel de uma ―teoria da revolução latino-americana‖, tendo a revolução cubana como paradigma / Abstract: In the present work, we aim at investigating the foundations of the elaboration, development and repercussion of the ―Latin American revolution theory‖, put forth by the French intellectual Régis Debray, from the analysis of his book Revolução na revolução, published in 1967, in particular. Debray's formulations, having taken inspiration in the 1959 Cuban revolution, deeply influenced the political culture of the Latin American left wing from the 1960's onward. His theses influenced the regional radicalized left wing, who adopted armed struggle as the only alternative to the realization and consolidation of the continent's revolutionary project. Régis Debray got more involved with the Cuban Revolution than any other Western left-winged intellectual, becoming one of its main ideologists. From his experience with the Cubans, Debray would create the ―foco‖ theory, which had, particularly in the 1960's, the vole of a ―Latin American revolution theory‖, having the Cuban revolution as its paradigm / Mestre

Se focalisant sur les quatre spectacles montés dans les deux périodes où la conception orthodoxe de la révolution socialiste est remise en question par l’expansion du néo-libéralisme, cette thèse vise à révéler simultanément les diverses approches théâtrales et problématiques du mythe historique et leur lien indissociable avec les problèmes sociopolitiques de l’époque. Face à la démoralisation profonde chez les militants suite à la défaite politique du mouvement de Mai 68, le Théâtre du Soleil essaie de démystifier l’Histoire de la Révolution française pour s’interroger sur l’esprit révolutionnaire contemporain et sur le développement démocratique des temps modernes. Son diptyque révolutionnaire – 1789 et 1793 – dévoile non seulement la combativité commune entre les différentes générations engagées, mais perce également les problèmes cruciaux de ses actualités politiques. Contrairement à l’atmosphère commémorative et festive du bicentenaire de la Révolution française, Klaus Michael Grüber et Matthias Langhoff adoptent parallèlement une approche distanciée et problématique pour révéler les ambiguïtés entre la prise de conscience individuelle et l’engagement collectif, entre le dilemme existentiel d’un révolutionnaire désabusé et son idéal politique. La Mort de Danton et La Mission/ Au Perroquet vert font écho à la désorientation générale entraînée par la désintégration du bloc de l’Est vers la fin de l’année 1989. À travers ces quatre créations théâtrales, nous nous rapprochons des contradictions de l’humanité confrontée au sursaut historique pour surmonter les limites des révolutions passées et créer des nouvelles possibilités d’actions révolutionnaires futures. / This thesis focuses on four performances staged in two periods when the orthodox view of the socialist revolution was being challenged by the spread of neo-liberalism. In parallel, it aims to throw light on the various theatrical and theoretical approaches to the historical myth and their inextricable link with the sociopolitical problems of the age. In light of the deep sense of demoralisation felt by activists in the wake of the political defeat of the May 68 movement, the Théâtre du Soleil tries to demystify the history of the French Revolution to examine the contemporary revolutionary spirit and the growth of democracy in our modern age. In 1789 and 1793 it reveals the general sense of combativeness that pervaded all age groups, and turns the spotlight on the critical problems of current political issues. In contrast to the commemorative and festive atmosphere of the bicentennial of the French Revolution, Klaus Michael Grüber and Matthias Langhoff adopt a more objective, theoretical approach in order to reveal the ambiguities that exist between individual understanding and collective engagement, between the existential dilemma of disillusioned revolutionaries and their political ideals. Danton's Death and The Mission/The Green Cockatoo reflect the general sense of disorientation felt in the wake of the collapse of the Eastern bloc at the end of 1989. These four theatrical pieces allow us to gain an insight into the contradictions of humankind when confronted with momentous historical events in order to move beyond the limits of previous revolutions and create new possibilities for future revolutionary actions.

In this essay we have used a qualitative interview approach to study the #Metoo movement that took place during 2017. Our aim has been to examine if ordinary Swedish citizens may have changed their views of sexual harassment in the wake of #Metoo, and if #Metoo and gender has contributed to these changes.We have carried out 8 interviews, 4 of them with men and 4 of them with women, all aged 22-25 years old and not in any close relationships or with children. Using several theories on gender roles, power structures and sex-related crimes, we put our empirical material into a theoretical context, seeking to find if our chosen theories could provide deeper explanations to the stories of our respondents and the themes we had ourselves identified.We found that the theories we had picked correlated well with our empirical material, with one important exception. While our respondents described several aspects of gender roles, power structures and sex-related crimes, the men never expressed a desire to maintain and uphold the older relationships of power within society, and instead attributed those reasonings to belong to the older generation. This turned out to partially contradict the prediction we had found in the theories.Our conclusion with this study is that there is a renewed foundation present in the viewpoints of our interviewees towards further development of the Swedish society to provide a just and equal everyday life for both women and men, to continue changing traditional gender roles and distributions of power, and that #Metoo has played a central role in that reinforcement. While these processes have been ongoing for many decades, we feel that our study has shown that #Metoo has provided a renewed boost on the path to an equal Swedish society. / Vi har gjort en kvalitativ intervjustudie om #Metoo-rörelsen som skedde under hösten 2017. Syftet var att undersöka om privatpersoners medvetenhet kring sexuella trakasserier har förändrats efter #Metoo. Vi ville även ta reda på om det är #Metoo som lett till denna eventuella förändring och om kön har haft någon påverkan på informanternas medvetenhet av #Metoo.Vi har genomfört 8 intervjuer med 4 kvinnor och 4 män, i åldrarna 22-25 år, alla våra informanter är ensamstående utan barn. Vi bearbetade det insamlade materialet genom en tematisk analys och identifierade de teman som vi fann i informanternas beskrivningar. Med hjälp av två genusteorier kring könsroller, maktstrukturer och sexualbrott har vi därefter analyserat dessa teman för att sätta våra informanters berättelser i ett teoretiskt perspektiv och för att se om teorierna kan förklara de teman som vi hade hittat i vårt material.Våra informanter beskrev många aspekter av könsroller, maktstrukturer och sexualbrott som överensstämmer med teorierna och vi fann att teorierna stämmer väl in på informanternas beskrivning av sina upplevelser med ett viktigt undantag. Det visade sig att våra manliga informanter aldrig uttryckte någon egen önskan om att behålla rådande maktförhållanden. Istället lade de dessa resonemang hos den äldre generationen män, vilket delvis gick emot vad våra teorier hade förutsett.Vår slutsats i denna studie är att de informanter vi intervjuade uppvisar en förnyad grundval för vidare förändring i det svenska samhället mot en rättvis och jämställd vardag för både kvinnor och män, att fortsätta påverka de traditionella könsrollerna och maktfördelningarna, och att #Metoo har spelat en central roll i denna förstärkning. Medan detta utvecklingsarbete redan har pågått i flera decennier, känner vi med vår undersökning att #Metoo har lett till en ökad kraft på vägen mot ett jämställt Sverige.

La présente thèse vise à déterminer les ressorts de l’ascension sociale des Cibiel, entre 1754 et 1914, organisée durant quatre générations sur un mode collectif, au cours de laquelle ils passent du colportage local entre montagne du Cantal et plaines, au négoce et à la finance au niveau national puis international : ils édifient, à partir du textile et du Sud-ouest, un empire financier et industriel dans tous les domaines de la Révolution industrielle – transports, secteur minier et métallurgique et dérivés, modernisation urbaine – complété par un patrimoine foncier de premier ordre. L’analyse de cette mutation progressive permet de comprendre quelles sont les stratégies et les logiques mises en œuvre par les différents « acteurs » de la famille, mettant en synergie jeux communs et jeux individuels pour conquérir un pouvoir économique et sociopolitique majeur au sein des réseaux d’élites, à partir d’un réseau familial insolite implanté dans une logique de comptoirs à l’image de celui des Rothschild. La mobilisation de la méthodologie d’analyse des réseaux et de la sociologie des organisations, notamment la théorie de « l’acteur stratégique » de Michel Crozier et Erhard Friedberg, pour étudier la dynamique des Cibiel, permet de mesurer à quelles conditions « l’union fait la force ». Alors que la succession d’un « acteur-clé » aux trois premières générations joue un rôle moteur pour le collectif familial, la rupture introduite par une « stratégie d’affrontement » intrafamiliale à la dernière génération marque la fin de la « bonne fortune » prodigieuse de la famille Cibiel et de sa success story singulière. / The present thesis aims at determining the origins and forces of the social climbing of the French family Cibiel, between 1754 and 1914, through four generations. Within these 160 years, the family rose from local peddling to international trade and finance. Starting from textile trading in the Southwest of France, the Cibiels gradually built a financial and industrial empire which stretched over all the fields impacted by the Industrial Revolution — transports, mining, metallurgy, urban modernizing —, and accumulated a considerable estate. The analysis of this gradual transformation enables the understanding of the strategies and logics implemented by the various "players" of the family. They forged synergistic common games and individual games to conquer a major economic and socio-political power within elite networks. Their social climbing hinges on an unusual family network, that developed itself through a counters approach, similar to the Rothschilds network. The network analysis and the sociology of organizations methodologies have been used, particularly the "strategic player" theory of Michel Crozier and Erhard Friedberg, to study the Cibiels’ dynamics. They support the assessment of what makes unity a strength. The emergence of a "key player" at each of the first three generations plays a leading role in the family collective. With the break introduced by an intrafamilial "confrontational strategy" at the last generation came the end of the prodigious "good fortune" of the Cibiel family and of its singular success story.
