Consuming democracy : local agencies and liberal peace in the Democratic Republic of CongoDe Goede, Meike J. January 2012 (has links)
This thesis focuses on liberal peace building in the DRC. The thesis takes a critical approach which emphasises local agencies and their engagements with liberal peace building. However, it seeks to bring this critique back to the institutions with which liberal peace building is preoccupied, by focusing on the hidden local that operates within these institutions. This approach seeks to give new meaning to processes of institution building without rendering institutions irrelevant as a top-down approach. Focusing on the first legislature of the Congolese Third Republic (2006-2011) this thesis provides a case study of how local agencies consume liberal democracy within the National Assembly, and make it their own. It discusses current liberal peace building practices as a process of mutual disengagement, in which both the local and liberal intervention seek to disengage from each other. Although this results in a lack of legitimacy of the peace building project both locally as well as with liberal interventions, it also creates hybrid space in which local agencies consume liberal democracy. The thesis conceptualises these local agencies as being convivial, in other words, they are enabled by people's relations. The thesis therefore focuses on MPs relations with their electorate, as well as with the executive and other MPs in their party or ruling coalition. In through these interactions local agencies consume liberal democracy – it is accepted, rejected, diverted, substituted, etc. The thesis concludes that through these practices of consumption local agencies negotiate liberal democracy. The liberal democratic framework is kept intact, but it is not enabled to function as foreseen, because local agencies are responsive to a moral matrix of the father-family. However, the liberal democratic framework itself provides new tools through which local agencies also renegotiate the unwritten rules of the moral matrix of the father-family.

Previous issue date: 2012 / Resumo: A institucionalização relativamente recente da Geografia, principalmente na Alemanha, resulta de um processo contínuo e dialético de reflexão e sistematização de idéias, fruto de inúmeros avanços tecnológicos, materiais e estéticos; ligados a um contexto político-econômico marcante, iniciados mais precisamente com o advento do pensamento moderno na Europa e a consolidação do capitalismo. Algumas concepções teóricas contribuíram com diferentes processos que influenciaram de maneira diversa e complexa para a constituição do arcabouço teórico no processo de institucionalização da geografia enquanto disciplina. Para compreender as nuances deste processo marcante, mas ainda pouco estudado, a presente dissertação buscará comprovar que os trabalhos e as práticas de Oscar Peschel, Friedrich Ratzel e Alfred Hettner permitiram a consolidação de um programa e uma metodologia para os estudos geográficos, pautados pela influência do Positivismo, do Darwinismo e do Imperialismo no processo de institucionalização da Geografia na Alemanha, na passagem do séc. XIX ao séc. XX / Abstract: The relatively recent institutionalization of geography, especially in Germany, results from an ongoing, dialectical process of reflection and systematization of ideas, the result of numerous technological advances, materials and aesthetic, tied to a political and economic context marked, started more precisely with the advent of modern thinking in Europe and the consolidation of capitalism. Some theoretical concepts contributed different procedures that influenced in a diverse and complex way to form the theoretical framework in the institutionalization of geography as a discipline. To understand the nuances of this remarkable process, yet little studied, this paper will seek to prove that Oscar Peschel, and Friedrich Ratzel Alfred Hettner's work and practices allowed the consolidation of a program and a methodology for geographic studies, guided by the influence of Positivism, Darwinism and Imperialism in the process of institutionalization of geography in Germany, in the passage of nineteenth century to the twentieth century / Mestrado / Análise Ambiental e Dinâmica Territorial / Mestre em Geografia
