Los crímenes sexuales en la jurisprudencia internacional
2012
La jurisprudencia de los Tribunales internacionales para la antigua Yugoslavia y para Ruanda determinó que por primera vez el Estatuto de la Corte Penal Internacional tipificase con carácter autónomo diversos crímenes internacionales de naturaleza sexual. En la actualidad, cuatro tribunales internacionales ya se han pronunciado sobre los elementos constitutivos de tres de estos crímenes sexuales, en concreto, la violación, la esclavitud sexual y la violencia sexual. Al estudio de esta jurisprudencia se dedica este trabajo. ABSTRACT: The jurisprudence of the International Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda determined that, for the first time, the Statute of the International Crim…
Rase un autorība izbēgušo vergu naratīvos (Fr. Duglass un H. Džeikobsa)
2017
Izbēgušo vergu naratīvi ir izveidojuši nozīmīgu pamatu 19. gadsimta Afro-Amerikāņu literatūrā, sniedzot vērtīgu attēlojumu par melnādaino vergu nepārtraukto cīņu dienvidu štatos, ar mērķi saglabāt identitāti un iegūt brīvību, tādējādi veicinot izpratni starp ziemeļu štata cilvēkiem par šaušalīgajiem notikumiem, kas norisinās verdzības iestādēs. Līdz ar to pašreizējā pētījuma mērķis ir veikt dzimtes un rases balstītu salīdzinājumu starp vergu naratīviem (Frederiks Duglass un Harieta Džeikobsa), un atbildēt uz galveno pētījuma jautājumu, nosakot kā abu dzimuma autori risināja ar rasi un dzimti saistītās problēmas. Lai sasniegtu uzstādīto mērķi, tika izvēlēti attiecīgi metodiskie paņēmieni, pr…
Una teoría de la justicia: Nietzsche contra la dignidad humana como fundamento de la comunidad política
2011
La moderna sociedad burguesa contiene para Nietzsche elementos que amenazan con provocar una reordenación total de la política y la sociedad en sentido igualitario. Con el objetivo de contribuir a frustrar el desarrollo de la cultura alemana en esa dirección -y basándose en su reconstrucción personal de la metafísica de Schopenhauer- expone la necesidad de someter políticamente a la mayoría de los seres humanos en favor de unos pocos liberados de la lucha por la existencia, así como de configurar el Estado de manera militarista. El fin de esta utopía consiste en llegar a hacer posible, entre algunos escogidos, una forma de vida en la cual no impere ya la racionalidad instrumental. ABSTRACT.…
Les débats devant la commission d'esclavage
2010
On March 4, 1848, thanks to the decisive impetus given by Victor Schoelcher, the principle of the abolition of slavery was proclaimed by decree and a « Commission for the preparation of an act of immediate emancipation in all the colonies of the Republic » was established. Like the commission de Broglie under the July Monarchy, the commission, chaired by Schoelcher, provided a huge work of documentation, information and reflection on the settlements, studying also the organization of the English colonies. However, unlike the previous one, the commission of 1848 required the immediate abolition of slavery (Decree of April 27, 1848), without waiting for the election of the National Assembly, …
Antônio Etíope e Benedito, o mouro: o escravinho Santo e o preto eremita
2009
This article discusses the process of canonization of two African slaves, Benedict and Anthony, who were taken to Sicily through a combination of privacy wars, the slave trade and conflicts between Christian states and the Ottoman Empire in the context of modern-era Mediterranean. Along with other "servants of God" with exemplary lives, they both joined the Franciscan Order and were elevated to the altar after their deaths, while enslaved Christians in African territory "took the turban" with some even became local Muslim authorities. Sicily, a Spanish vice-kingdom near the northern African coast, was a cultural crossroad and for at the same time a privileged laboratory for the activity of …
Arti magiche, influenze diaboliche e malefici in Sicilia nei secoli XIV e XV
2020
I dati sulla magia nella Sicilia tardo-medievale sono scarsi, ma i documenti testimoniano la commistione tra magia, religione e medicina. Le presunte maghe sono spesso donne sole, prive di un cognome che le collochi in un contesto socio-familiare. Il maleficio operato dallo schiavo Giorgio ai danni del vecchio padrone apre uno spiraglio sui riti magici portati in Sicilia dagli schiavi. L’episodio segue gli schemi della magia tradizionale e la sua assoluzione pare legata all’intervento del nuovo padrone. La magia è un campo aperto senza confini spaziali e sociali, Giorgio comunica il suo sapere popolare a speziali e mercanti di Palermo che lo ascoltano, lo temono e ne seguono le indicazioni.…
A Finnish socialist female parliamentarian stopped on the Dutch border
2020
A Finnish socialist female parliamentarian stopped on the Dutch border: the (de) politicization of Finnish women’s suffrage in Dutch battles on votes for women This research article in transnational history analyses an incident during which Hilja Pärssinen, a Finnish socialist woman MP, was stopped on the Dutch border in September 1913 on her way to visit a suffragette college in London. This two-hour event at the border and public controversy that followed were clashes between competing ideological and gendered discourses on women’s political agency. The incident was a nexus of intersecting discourses on a range of issues: Dutch and international debates on women’s suffrage, discourse on ‘…
L'abbé Grégoire, son legs : six concours pour la liberté et l'égalité
2000
Gregoire's last will and testament called for the organization of six awards to be granted on the basis of written competitions on subjects that included reflections upon despotism, slavery, liberties, and equality, the themes of the struggles that had engaged Gregoire. Although the quality of the essays that resulted were not up to the level that the abbot had no doubt hoped for, the competition relative to the means of fighting the prejudice of color was the occasion to open a large debate and to launch the French abolitionist movement.
