Abstract:
Parties of ethnic minorities are flourishing in a large number of ethnically divided democracies. While academic research has studied their emergence and success, we know little about intra-group party competition. This paper discusses the reasons for intra-group political plurality, with a focus on intra-party conflict and intra-group party competition: it explains the political orientation of ethnic minority parties and their intra-group challengers as a consequence of the inclusion of minority parties into government. The inclusion of minority parties into national governments produces an inherent conflict between pragmatic office-seekers and radical partisans. In minority parties that have governmental responsibilities, the pragmatist view overwhelms, while in those parties in opposition, radical voices dominate. The formation of two intra-Hungarian challenger parties in Romania and in Slovakia in 2007 and 2009 represents two very similar cases, which appear to be in line with our hypotheses.

Abstract:
This article discusses the theory and practice of multicultural citizenship in liberal states. Regarding theory, I point to the shortcomings of both ‘radical’ and ‘liberal’ approaches to justify minority rights. Regarding practice, the state-centered notion of multicultural citizenship defects from the decentered accommodation of multicultural minority claims in functionnally differentiated societies. It also runs counter to a trend toward de-ethnicization in liberal states, in which the cultural impositions of the majority on minority groups are growing thin, thus removing the case for minority rights.

Abstract:
This article explains variation in local aggregate support for the populist radical right in Portugal, a country long considered immune to the rise of this political force. Using local electoral results of the 2021 presidential election, I find positive statistical associations between the radical right vote share and the share of social assistance benefit recipients, as well as with the size of the local Roma minority. I also show that the effect of the percentage of social assistance recipients is conditioned on a higher size of the local Roma minority. In contrast, factors such as unemployment, average income levels or the share of immigrants and their change over time do not explain variation in radical right vote shares. The research points to the presence of outgroups that can be construed as ‘outsiders’ as a relevant factor explaining aggregate support for the radical right in contexts where the salience of immigration is low.

Abstract:
This article wants to discuss the concept of Ijtihad in the perspective of Tariq Ramadan. Thus, at the same time, this article pays attention to the concept of Radical Reform which is an effort to achieve Tariq Ramadan, as an Islamic activist who is involved in the dynamics of Muslim life in Europe. This article is a qualitative article using a library research methodology. The primary data from this article is Tariq Ramadan's book, Radical Reform: Islamic Ethic and Liberation, while the secondary data from this research are books, journals and articles. supporting articles. This article finds that the ideas brought by Tariq Ramadan are relevant to be applied by minority Muslims in the west, because in this idea Ramadan does not only adapt or rely on contextualization, but emphasizes that the situation or context is an independent aspect. This article argues that the offer of Ijtihad in Ramadan's Radical Reform concept is the most suitable to be applied in the social reality where de facto a large number of Muslims live as a minority community, especially in the western world which has a population with various theological beliefs.

Abstract Advances in several medical disciplines have resulted in greatly improved outcome and reduced morbidity and mortality in the management of complex gynecologic tumors. Early reports of central pelvic exenteration were discouraging and associated with high mortality (28%) and major complications (100%). Preoperative medical assessment, expert anesthesia, and postoperative intensive care have reduced perioperative mortality to less than 5%. For patients with recurrent cervical and endometrial cancer, who already had surgery, and for a minority of primary or recurrent sarcomas without distance metastases, the contemporaneous surgery offers a chance by bone extended resections.

Abstract:
Orthodox Jews are a small minority of the minority of religious Jews in Israel. Some are anti-Zionist even to the extent of not recognising the State of Israel. Other Orthodox Jews are messianic fundamentalists and Zionists. These ideas are found especially in Gush Enumim, ‘The Bloc of the Faithful’, which teaches that the Jewish people should occupy the whole land of Israel and rebuild the Temple. Some more radical groups are prepared to use any means to hasten this.

Abstract:
AbstractIn the aftermath of the First World War, a so-called ‘minority problem’ loomed large in European politics. This problem was understood, moreover, to be peculiar to central and eastern Europe. In fact, however, linguistic diversity was not a unique feature of the east, but also an ongoing challenge in states that had long claimed to have a unified national culture. This article compares policies of national classification and minority rights in France and Czechoslovakia after the First World War. It suggests that even as east/west binaries structured the unequal application of new international minority rights protections, France, rather than Czechoslovakia, implemented a more radical and racist policy of forcible national classification.

Abstract:
The article reconstructs the discourse of film criticism in Liberator – a radical African American magazine published between 1961 and 1971. Employing Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of the cultural field, the author situates Liberator within the context of the 1960s, civil rights movement, and Black Arts movement, and analyses the magazine’s role in film culture of the era, as well as the links between the magazine and important black filmmakers and film writers. Four aspects of Liberator’s film criticism are explored: cultural memory of past representations, criticism of genre filmmaking, the need for cinematic realism, and the possibility of creating a distinct black cinema. The case study of the critic Clayton Riley’s career presents an author who wanted to continue his radical criticism in the mainstream press (The New York Times). Liberator’s legacy is framed as essential in understanding the tradition of African American film criticism.

Full text
Abstract:
Adaptation Studies suffers from a deficiency in the study of black, brown, yellow, and red adaptive texts, adaptive actors, and their practices. Adaptive Acts intervenes in this Eurocentric discourse as a study of adaptation with a (queer) POC perspective. My dissertation reveals that artists of color (re)create texts via dynamic modes of adaptation such as hyper-literary allusion, the use of meta-narratives as framing devices, and on-site collaborative re-writes that speak to/from specific cultural discourses that Eurocentric models alone cannot account for. I examine multi-ethnic American adaptations to delineate the role of adaptation in the continuance of stories that contest dominant culture from marginalized perspectives. And I offer deep adaptive readings of multi-ethnic adaptations in order to answer questions such as: what happens when adaptations are created to remember, to heal, and to disrupt? How does adaptation, as a centuries-old mode of cultural production, bring to the center the voices of the doubly marginalized, particularly queers of color? The texts I examine as “adaptive acts” are radical, queer, push the boundaries of adaptation, and have not, up to this point, been given the adaptive attention I believe they merit. David Henry Hwang’s 1988 Tony award-winning play, M. Butterfly, is an adaptive critique of the textual history of Butterfly and questions the assumptions of the Orientalism that underpins the story, which causes his play to intersect with Pierre Loti’s 1887 novella, Madame Chrysanthéme, at a point of imperial queerness. Rodney Evans, whose 2004 film, Brother to Brother, is the first full-length film to tell the story of the black queer roots at the genesis of the Harlem Renaissance, uses adaptation as a story(re)telling mode that focalizes the “gay rebel of the Harlem Renaissance,” Richard Bruce Nugent (1906-1987), to Signify on issues of canonization, gate-keeping, mythologizing, and intracultural marginalization. My discussion of Sherman Alexie’s debut film, The Business of Fancydancing, is informed by my own work as an adaptive actor and showcases the power of adaptation in the activation of Native continuance as an inclusive adaptive practice that offers an opportunity for women and queers of color to amend the Spokane/Coeur d'Alene writer-director’s creative authority. Adaptive acts are not only documents, but they document movements, decisions, and sociocultural action. Adaptation Studies must take seriously the power and possibilities of “adaptive acts” and “adaptive actors” from the margins if the field is to expand—adapt—in response to this diversity of adaptive potential.

Abstract:
Une montée de la droite radicale populiste a pu être observée dans les démocraties occidentales au cours des dernières années. Celle-ci s'est traduite au niveau électoral en Europe et même aux États-Unis. Si le Canada a relativement été épargné par la montée de celle-ci sur le plan électoral, il a tout de même été possible de noter une augmentation du nombre de groupes s'apparentant à cette mouvance de droite. Or, ces groupes et leurs idéologies ont peu été étudiés dans le contexte canadien. Le présent travail s'intéresse à la relation entre les deux idéologies principales de la droite radicale populiste, l'ethnonationalisme et le populisme, dans le discours de deux groupes canadiens : La Meute et le National Citizens Alliance. Une analyse du discours des groupes est effectuée à partir de leur documentation officielle et de leurs publications Facebook de 2019. Notre analyse, par le biais du cadre théorique utilisé, permet d'abord de confirmer que les idéologies de nos deux cas d'étude s'apparentent bel et bien à celles de la droite radicale populiste européenne. Elle permet aussi de comparer nos cas entre eux, montrant ainsi que malgré leurs grandes similitudes, les idéologies du deuxième groupe sont plus radicales. Il a d'ailleurs été possible de lier cette différence avec les contextes distincts dans lesquels s'inscrivent les discours des groupes. L'analyse plus détaillée de l'argumentaire des groupes permet de confirmer notre proposition selon laquelle le populisme découlerait de l'ethnonationalisme et que la première idéologie viendrait appuyer la seconde. Toutefois, notre analyse permet de comprendre plus en détail la nature de cette relation en montrant que le populisme a essentiellement un rôle de légitimation démocratique pour les revendications ethnonationalistes. Le travail parvient également à montrer que l'ethnonationalisme s'enracine plus largement dans une forme de conservatisme radical, apportant ainsi des pistes pour les recherches futures sur le sujet.
A rise of the populist radical right has been observed in Western democracies in recent years. This was reflected at the electoral level in Europe and even in the United States. While Canada has been relatively spared by the rise of the latter on the electoral front, it has nonetheless been possible to see an increase in the number of groups resembling this right-wing movement. However, very few studies have been focusing on those groups and their ideologies in the Canadian context. This study examines the relationship between the two main ideologies of the radical right-wing populist, ethnonationalism and populism, in the discourse of two Canadian groups: La Meute and the National Citizens Alliance. An analysis of the groups' discourse is done from their official documentation and Facebook posts from 2019. Our analysis, through the theoretical framework used, first confirms that the ideologies of our two cases studied indeed resemble those of the European populist radical right. It also allows us to compare our cases with one another, showing that despite their great similarities, the ideologies of the second group are more radical. It was moreover possible to link this difference with the distinct contexts in which the discourse of the groups takes place. A more detailed analysis of the group's arguments confirms our proposition that populism stems from ethnonationalism and that the first ideology supports the second. However, our analysis allows us to understand in more details the nature of this relationship by showing that populism has essentially a role of democratic legitimization for ethno-nationalist claims. The work also succeeds in showing that ethnonationalism is rooted more broadly in a form of radical conservatism, thus providing avenues for future research on the subject.

Abstract:

How can we explain variation in support for radical right parties over time and across post-communist democracies? This project suggests that support for radical right parties is driven by the politics of accommodation, and is aimed at counteracting the political inroads, cultural concessions and economic gains of politically organized minorities. It differs from other studies of extremist politics in three primary respects: (1) Unlike current approaches that focus on competition between the extreme and mainstream parties, I emphasize dynamics between the radical right party and non- proximate parties that promote minority rights. (2) Several approaches argue that xenophobia drives support for the radical right, whereas I show that xenophobia is not a distinct feature of the radical right party support base; what differentiates radical right voters from other voters is opposition to governmental transfers towards politically organized minorities. (3) I endogenize issue salience and identify coalition politics - i.e., coalitions of mainstream parties and parties supporting minority protection - as a key mechanism that increases the salience of identity issues in political competition, and benefits radical right parties. The project tests these propositions empirically, and finds supportive evidence using two unique micro-level surveys and an original party-election-level data set covering all post-communist democracies.

Abstract:
This paper examines a twenty year period to explore the salience of race equality in higher education in the UK. While research evidence accumulates to demonstrate that staff and students from minority ethnic groups continue to experience considerab;e disadvantage, universities throughout the period have typically remained remarkably complacent. Such complacency partly stems from the dominance in the academy of a liberal as opposed to radical pperspective on equality. Universities typically see themselves as liberal and believe existing policies ensure fairness and in the propcess ignore adverse outcomes and do not see combating racial inequalities as a prioroty. The paper distinguishes two ideal typical approaches, the 'mandatory' and the 'persuasive' to the promotion of race equality and suggests that the period has witnessed the transition along a continuum from the mandatory to the persuasive. Regardless of which approach is preferred, universities are urged to have no truck with a deficit model and to see it as their responsibility to ensure more equitable outcomes.

Abstract:
This article aims to identify voter attitudes, based on the results of the 2020 parliamentary elections, towards European integration, religious attitudes in politics, universal left-right integration, the rights of ethnic minorities, the position between cosmopolitan and national sentiments, and political decentralization in favour of regions at the district level of Slovakia, while considering factors that affect voter's selection. In the first step, we calculated the position of the district through the results of individual political parties (district level) in the elections to the National Council of the Slovak Republic in 2020 and data from the 2019 Chapel Hill expert survey. In the second step, we used these results as dependent variables for regression analysis, examining their dependence on the variables average wage, unemployment rate, ethnic composition, and time availability of the district's seat from the regional centre and Bratislava (capital). A retrospective analysis of voter attitudes at individual districts has shown that concerns about possible covert support for anti-system parties are warranted. “Negative” results, especially on religious principles in politics, ethnic minority rights, inclination to national values, and centralized power, show that if expectations from standard (or liberal democratic) parties are not met, there is a risk of voters diverting to radical parties.

Abstract:
In 2015, students at the University of Cape Town called for the statue of Cecil Rhodes, the 19th century British coloniser, to be removed from their campus. Their clarion call, in this increasingly widespread #RhodesMustFall movement, was that for diversity, inclusion and social justice to become a lived reality in higher education (HE), the curriculum has to be ‘decolonised’. (Chantiluke, et al, 2018; Le Grange, 2016) This was to be done by challenging the longstanding, hegemonic Eurocentric production of knowledge and dominant values by accommodating alternative perspectives, epistemologies and content. Moreover, they also called for broader institutional changes: fees must fall, and the recruitment and retention of both students and staff should take better account of cultural diversity rather than working to socially reproduce ‘white privilege’ (Bhambra, et al, 2015) Concerns had long been voiced by both academics and students about curricula dominated by white, capitalist, heterosexual, western worldviews at the expense of the experiences and discourses of those not perceiving themselves as fitting into those mainstream categories (for an Afrocentric perspective, see inter alia, Asante, 1995; Hicks & Holden, 2007) The massification of HE across race and class lines in the past four decades has fuelled these debates; consequentially, the ‘fitness’ of curricula across disciplines are increasingly being questioned. Student representative bodies have also voiced the deeper concern that many pedagogic practices and assessment techniques in university systems serve to reproduce society’s broader inequalities. Certainly, in the UK, recent in-depth research has indicated that the outcomes of inequity are both multifaceted and tangible, with, for example, graduating students from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) backgrounds only receiving half as many ‘good’ (first class and upper second) degree classifications as their white counterparts (RHS, 2018). As a consequence of such findings and reports, the momentum for discussing the issues around diversifying and decolonising the university has gathered pace. Importantly, however, as the case and arguments have been expressed not only through peer reviewed articles and reports published by learned societies, but also in the popular press, the core issues have become more accessible than most academic debates and more readily discussed by both teachers and learners (Arday and Mirza, 2018; RHS, 2018). Hence, more recently, findings about the attainment/awarding gap have been taken seriously and given prominence by both Universities UK and the National Union of Students, though their shared conclusion is that radical (though yet to be determined) steps are needed if any movements or campaigns, such as #closingthegap are to find any success.
