The Revolution and its Discontents: Grenadian Newspapers and Attempts to Shape Public Opinion during Political Transition

Abstract

What role did the newspaper play in attempting to influence public opinion in the early stages of the Grenada Revolution and what are the terms in which printed discourses on the revolution were conceptualised? The Grenada Revolution was a discursive political process where branding and narration were necessary elements in securing the revolution’s authority and legitimacy. This paper argues that Cuba functioned as a metonym through which the revolution was translated in Grenadian periodicals. Even before the coup of 13 March 1979 Grenadian media represented the New Jewel Movement—the revolutionary party—as Cuban-inspired and socialist. In order to examine how socialism in general, and the socialist character of the People’s Revolutionary Government (PRG) in particular, was narrated, a comparison is staged between two newspapers—the government-run Free West Indian and the privately owned The Torchlight. Competing discourses on Cuban communism are analysed for the ways in which they stood-in for the Grenadian people’s hopes, aspirations and anxieties in the midst of radical political change. Issues including race, gender equality, property ownership, freedom of religious practice and freedom of travel are examined in relation to capitalism and socialism, and the PRG’s efforts to maintain narrative authority of the revolution.     

改革开放与中国特色社会主义道路的选择

改革开放的进程就是我国逐步融入全球化的进程。在这一过程中,我们成功开辟了中国特色社会主义发展道路。在新的历史条件下,只有坚定不移地推进改革开放,把坚持四项基本原则同坚持改革开放结合起来,把坚持独立自主同参与经济全球化结合起来,坚持党的领导,才能使中国特色社会主义道路越走越宽广。     

中国特色社会主义理论体系的特性分析

中国特色社会主义理论作为马克思主义中国化第二次飞跃所产生的一项重要理论成果,是指导我国社会主义现代化建设的行动指南。十一届三中全会到十八大的胜利召开,中国特色社会主义理论体系经历了一个不断发展和创新的过程。具有中国特色的社会主义理论体系本身的特性主要有:鲜明的阶级民族性、紧密的历史连续性、严密的结构整体性、鲜活的现实时代性和灵活的发展创新性。这个体系是坚持中国特色社会主义制度,走中国特色社会主义道路,最终实现中国特色社会主义的行动指南。     

社会公正与以德化民

道德教化与社会公正相辅相成,社会公正是社会主义公民道德教化的本质体现,也是建构高尚的公民道德的基本保障;以德化民有利于促进社会公正的实现。因此,实现社会公正是党和政府的重要任务。我们应该着重从党、国家、政府和社会等多个层面加强营造社会公正的氛围,从而为实现以德化民打下坚实的基础。     

试析拉美左翼政治与拉美宗教社会主义思潮

拉丁美洲从来都是一个思潮多元的地区,哥伦布发现美洲大地后又带来了基督教的思想,基督教从此生根发芽壮大,从维护统治阶级的工具到帮助穷人谋利益的利器。从拉美的解放神学再到现今拉美左翼领导人的宗教思想,这期间的进化过程意味着革命向广度和深度发展。马克思在19世纪认为宗教是反动势力、愚昧主义和保守主义的堡垒。这一论断在很大程度上是一个完全正确的命题,然而拉美的左翼思潮在新时代背景下又略有不同。对于我国目前宗教发展现状与趋势而言,如何科学而合理管理宗教,做到与时俱进是我国社会主义建设过程中必须面对的一个重要命题。     

解析道路自信、理论自信、制度自信

党的十八大报告首次提出全党要坚定中国特色社会主义道路自信、理论自信、制度自信。坚定“三个自信”对于党领导全国各族人民抵御风险、攻坚克难,推进社会主义现代化建设,实现中华民族伟大复兴具有深远影响。深入分析“三个自信”,准确把握中国特色社会主义道路、理论、制度的内涵,正确评价“三个自信”探索历程与成就经验,探索坚定道路自信、理论自信、制度自信的途径必将不断开创中国特色社会主义事业的新局面。     

坚定中国特色社会主义自觉自信

坚定中国特色社会主义自觉自信,源于中国特色社会主义发展成型、源于辉煌成就、源于对现实的深刻把握和自我反省、源于探索实践创新,是全体中国人民的共同心声,是中国共产党代表全体中国人民在党的十八大上向世人发出的最强音!     

Capitalist profit calculation and inflation accounting: A comment

Abstract

Mises’ ‘calculation argument’ against socialism argues that monetary calculation is indispensable as a commensurable unit for evaluating factors of production. This is not due to his conception of rationality being purely ‘algorithmic,’ for it accommodates non-monetary, incommensurable values. Commensurability is needed, rather, as an aid in the face of economic complexity. The socialist Neurath's response to Mises is unsatisfactory in rejecting the need to explore possible non-market techniques for achieving a certain degree of commensurability. Yet Neurath's contribution is valuable in emphasizing the need for a balanced, comparative approach to the question of market versus non-market that puts the commensurability question in context. These central issues raised by adversaries in the early socialist calculation debate have continued relevance for the contemporary discussion.     

Migration and the reconfiguration of Malaysia

This article examines the social impact of the 1997 financial crisis in South Korea. Although the crisis was short-lived, it has created major ripples all across the country, profoundly affecting the Koreans' lifestyle and family life as well as their values and worldview. In spite of the magnitude of the financial crisis and its social impact, scant scholarly attention has been paid to the issue, although the causes and economic impact of the crisis have been amply discussed. In view of this, the article examines major social changes brought upon by the financial crisis. The article probes, for example, how employment patterns have been deeply affected, whereby a majority of workers are now irregular workers or are underemployed. The article also demonstrates how the people's perception of work has changed and how the income gap between the rich and the poor has widened. Also discussed are, among others, the continuing discrimination against women in the workplace, rising divorce rate, increase in immigration and value conflicts over the relevance of Confucianism in contemporary Korea. In addition, the article examines the agency of the Korean people in reacting to or coping with the changing circumstances.
