▼ "Maternal Citizens: Gender and Women's Activism in the United States, 1945-1960" examines gender, citizenship, and postwar political culture. It focuses on the bi-partisan General Federation of Women's Clubs (GFWC), one of the nation's leading women's organizations, and its gendered strategy for winning the Cold War. The General Federation argued that, as mothers, women were responsible for educating the citizenry in American values at home and abroad. Charging clubwomen with this task, the GFWC positioned clubwomen as the arbiters of national character, which the organization identified with democracy, self-reliance, and free enterprise. Reflecting the anticommunist zeitgeist as well as clubwomen's white middle-class privilege, this construction defined private institutions and actions as more American than state ones. Locating women's public power in their domestic responsibilities advanced a brand of maternalist politics. Although clubwomen had long advocated maternalism ? the belief that women have special qualities by dint of their motherhood that should be spread to society at large ? the GFWC's postwar maternalism spoke to the complexities of postwar political culture. The GFWC's prescriptions for American homemakers and their local civic activism demonstrate a deep unease with the shifting relationship between the private citizen and the expanding welfare state. At the same time, however, the GFWC's international program imagined clubwomen could conduct grassroots diplomacy among women overseas to complement their strong state's international military and diplomatic agenda. The GFWC's construction of gendered citizenship deftly negotiated this uncertain political terrain. Claiming maternal authority over citizenship training, clubwomen framed these priorities as apolitical "women's work." The project intervenes in the historiography in several important ways: it adds to our understanding of mainstream women's political culture; it highlights gendered fissures in the New Deal order; and it provides an important counterpoint to the masculinized gender analysis found in most Cold War literature. "Maternal Citizens" considers the political work motherhood was able to do during the Cold War in ways that defies easy political categorization and complicates traditional postwar narratives. Advisors/Committee Members: Buhle, Mari Jo (director), Self, Robert (reader), Gorn, Elliott (reader).

▼ This dissertation examines how the Allies introduced public opinion polling to Germany after World War II and investigates how polling eventually became integrated into West German internal governance, political culture, and foreign relations. It analyzes the goals and methods of opinion researchers including Paul Lazarsfeld, the survey units of the American occupation forces, Elisabeth Noelle-Neumann of the Allensbach Institute, the Emnid Institute, and Theodor Adorno and the Frankfurt School. Although these actors had divergent political stances, they were motivated to apply empirical research methods to the West German population after World War II by shared concerns about the fragility of democracy and the destructive power of the masses, combined with faith in the empirical sciences as an antidote to fascistic thought patterns. “Polling after Fascism” shows that public opinion researchers did not provide seamless surveillance of political and cultural life, as contemporary critics had feared. The professionalization of polling and the increasing media attention paid to opinion research over the course of the 1950s did, however, influence West German political culture by stimulating academic and popular discussions about the meaning and significance of public opinion within a democracy. “Polling after Fascism” makes three major contributions to our understanding of the histories of Germany and public opinion research. First, it stresses the unifying effects of fears of the masses, which formed the basis for consensus among disparate actors. It shows that in the early 1950s, a surprising mix of researchers, intellectuals, and officials on opposing ends of the political spectrum worked together to advocate empirical social research as a way to assess risks posed by the West German masses. Second, the dissertation argues that national opinion research studies were not only conducted for internal clients (in this case, for the West German people and politicians), but were frequently designed to address the concerns of foreign observers. Third, “Polling after Fascism” offers a new account of the development of a public sphere of discussion and debate in West Germany during the 1950s, challenging the common argument that the elements of a democratic political culture only emerged in later decades.

▼ This dissertation studies the creative practices of citizens who use cultural resources to engage in political criticism in contemporary Cuba. I argue that, in order to become visible as political subjects in the public sphere, these citizens appeal to cultural forms and narratives of self-representation that elucidate the struggles for recognition faced by emerging social actors. I examine blogs, garage bands, art performances, home art exhibits, digital literary supplements, improvised academies, and informal networks of publication that, as forms of aesthetic experimentation with stories of everyday life, disclose a social text. I suggest that their narrative choices emphasize their status as 'regular citizens' in order to distinguish themselves from both traditional voices of political opposition and institutionally accredited cultural producers – professional artists, academics, musicians. This recasts sites of cultural production as models of alternative citizenship where the concept of the political is re-imagined and where the commonplace, pejorative meaning of the term amateur is contested. On the fringes of the republic of letters, adjacent to traditional sites of cultural production, these oblique uses of culture consequently question legitimate forms of public speech. They demand that the way in which the relationship between aesthetics and politics in Cuba has been traditionally studied be reconsidered. Read in tandem with discourses against and about them from the lettered city – in literature, cultural criticism, film, and visual arts – I also follow the trope of the amateur under revolutionary cultural politics. I suggest that these contemporary voices have a contradictory genealogy in the cultural practices of the early decades of the Cuban Revolution. I try to show that these cultural practices become politically and socially significant because they try to resist – though not always successfully – cooptation by two forces: the remnant of bureaucratic, state-capitalist tendencies on one hand, and the rapid commercialization of popular culture for a foreign audience on the other. As a result, both the reconfigurations of the cultural field and the contested meanings of democracy in post-Cold War Cuba are re-examined through a reading of informal hubs of cultural production. The functions of culture in late socialism can be then comparatively studied by looking at an institutional framework in transition through the social and political subjectivities that are both expressed in, and constituted by, corresponding aesthetic practices and forms.

▼ Die vorliegende Dissertation untersucht das Problem der Stabilität der Demokratie angesichts ihrer permanent drohenden Selbstabschaffung. Dieses Problem stellt sich nicht erst im Lichte einer angeblich akuten Krise der Demokratie zwischen den Fallstricken ihrer populistischen Überreizung einerseits und ihrer technokratischen Austrocknung andererseits. Die demokratische Regierungsform war zumal seit ihrer Verbreitung im zwanzigsten Jahrhundert immer schon begleitet von besorgten Stimmen, die – aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven – vor der Gefahr ihrer Selbstdestabilisierung warnten. Der erste Teil der Arbeit geht vor diesem Hintergrund auf eine demokratietheoretische Spurensuche. Es werden einflussreiche theoretische Positionen erörtert und einander gegenübergestellt, die entweder in der Radikalisierung oder in der Restriktion der Demokratie wahlweise ihre Hauptgefahr, respektive ihr Heilmittel entdecken. Im Zuge dieser rekonstruktiven Arbeit soll einerseits die spannungsreiche Mehrdeutigkeit des demokratischen Versprechens auf kollektive Selbstbestimmung deutlich werden. Andererseits wird der Gedanke plausibilisiert, dass gerade mit dieser internen Ambivalenz das Problem demokratischer Selbstgefährdung eng zusammenhängt. Der zweite Teil der Arbeit fasst dieses Problem als Herausforderung auf, die in real existierenden Demokratien durchaus gemeistert zu werden scheint. In vier Schritten werden Faktoren in den Blick genommen, die zwischen dem radikalen und dem restriktiven Pol der Demokratie vermitteln und das Potential demokratischer Selbstdestabilisierung präsumtiv abschwächen. Ich suche dabei in den Sphären des Rechts, der politischen Ethik, der Pädagogik und der Kultur nach Ressourcen, von denen die Nachhaltigkeit der demokratischen Regierungs- und Lebensform zehrt. Es wird hier zum einen deutlich werden, dass die im ersten Teil festgehaltene Ambivalenz des demokratischen Versprechens sich durch alle diese Sphären hindurchzieht. Zum anderen wird die Untersuchung in der Erkenntnis münden, dass die Stabilität der Demokratie in hohem Masse abhängig ist von der alltäglichen Prägewirkung vermeintlich vorpolitischer Interaktionskontexte und Erfahrungsräume. Die Arbeit ist damit nicht zuletzt auch ein Plädoyer für eine theoretische Sensibilität und praktische Sorge für die oft unscheinbaren Alltagspraktiken, Begegnungsräume, institutionellen Gesten und Symbolbestände, durch die gleichsam nebenher der Boden gelegt und gepflegt wird, auf dem das fragile Gehäuse der Demokratie stehen und bestehen kann. The present doctoral thesis deals with the problem of the stability of democracy, given the permanent threat of its self-destruction. This problem does not only arise in the light of an allegedly acute crisis of a democracy torn between its populist excitation and its technocratic exsiccation. Ever since its spread in the twentieth century, the democratic form of government was accompanied by worried voices that warned – from different perspectives – of the danger of its self-destabilisation. Against this background,… Advisors/Committee Members: Wingert, Lutz, Marti-Brander, Urs, Özmen, Elif.

▼ This dissertation addresses the need for a more nuanced understanding of political engagement. It argues for greater attention to variation in the meaning of diverse forms of political participation cross-nationally. It also draws attention to the relationship between culture and activism. Key aspects of the literature on political participation are tested and revised. In Chapter 2, I investigate and disaggregate the broad category of non-institutional engagement. I show that, far from being a unified category of action, non-institutional engagement is made up of three distinct repertoires of activism: communicative, individualised and collective. I challenge claims that non-institutional activism is more inclusive than traditional forms of participation by measuring the relative effects of typical predictors (resources, values and contextual measures) on different repertoires of non-institutional engagement. Important distinctions emerge, pointing to the need for more nuanced definitions of political engagement and greater attention to the relationship between activism, context and individual-level social location. The relationship between engagement and national context is investigated further in Chapter 3 where I test Castells’ theory of global social movement development across a variety of countries. Castells’ theory is emblematic of broader trends in the literature that seek to identify universal pathways to mobilisation. While lending support to parts of his theory regarding online technologies, the findings suggest that national context moderates the way citizens’ dissatisfaction gets translated into engagement. Cultural factors, at the individual and contextual level, also influence the form that political participation takes. Chapter 4 advocates for a practice theory approach to the study of political behaviour. I show that distinct forms of political participation gain meaning from their location within broader repertoires of political action and from their relationship to individuals’ cultural dispositions and political preferences. In sum, political engagement is shaped by the national, political and cultural climate in which it occurs. Political practices do not have inherent, universally transposable characteristics that can be used to construct generalising typologies of engagement. To understand how people in diverse settings interact with politics, political sociologists should adopt a more nuanced understanding of political engagement as contextually and socially conditioned cultural practice.

History

This dissertation makes three key arguments regarding politics and print culture in antebellum Florida. First, Florida’s territorial status, historic geographical divisions, and local issues necessitated the use of political parties. Second, Florida’s political parties evolved from a focus on charismatic men and local geographic loyalties to loyalty to party regardless of who was running to national and regional loyalties above local issues and men. Lastly, the central and most consistent aspect of Florida’s political party development was the influence of newspapers and their editors. To understand Florida politics in the nineteenth century it is necessary to recognize how the personal, geographical, and political divisions in Florida’s territorial past remained a critical factor in the development and function of national political parties in Florida. The local divisions within Florida in the 1820s created factions and personal loyalties that would later help characterize national parties in the 1840s. Political leaders, with the help of editors and their newspapers, created factions based more on personal loyalties than on ideology. By the 1850s party loyalty became paramount over personal or regional loyalties. In the last years before the Civil War Democrats linked Southern loyalty to the Democratic party and accused their opposition of treason against the South leading Florida and the nation to Civil War. Yet, throughout these political changes, editors and their newspapers remained central to political success, becoming the voice of political parties and critical to attracting and maintaining potential voters. In addition to understanding how politics functioned in antebellum Florida, this dissertation contributes to our larger understanding of the Second Party System and the South. An underlying argument of this dissertation is that while the Democrats tended to be better organized and more ideologically coherent, the Whigs suffered from constant in-fighting and splintering. This led to the Democratic domination of politics and, in the South, the ability of secession supporters to control the public conversation during the Sectional Crisis of the 1850s and lead the nation to war. This dissertation also claims that there is not just one South but many and exposes the myth of a changeless and monolithic South.

Le processus d’européanisation invite la Roumanie postcommuniste à redéfinir sa culture politique. Bien qu’inachevé, il provoque la mise en place des mécanismes de rétraction du politique. Le déclin contemporain de la démocratie représentative ainsi que de l’engagement partisan, nous invitent à repenser la relation « démocratie – européanisation ». Tant que les conditions ne sont pas réunies pour une démocratisation de l’Union européenne, elles ne le seront pas pour l’amélioration de l’exercice démocratique des Etats qui la composent. L’implantation d’une culture démocratique en Roumanie est endiguée par le manque de compréhension du Politique, mais aussi par l’entrée en post-démocratie d’une culture dont les racines sont paternalistes et clientélaires. Le passage d’une incompréhension du politique à l’impolitique trace les contours d’une culture qui a du mal à se définir. Avant d’être un régime, la démocratie est une culture des valeurs. Cette étude traite de la démocratie comme culture ainsi que des barrières qui empêchent sa transposition dans la Roumanie postcommuniste. Nous allons interroger la manière roumaine de se construire comme société. L’apport de la sociologie historique et de l’anthropologie à la compréhension de la culture politique postcommuniste roumaine reste non seulement important, mais crucial. Il nous permet de percer les différences de trajectoire des partis Social Démocrate – PSD et National Libéral – PNL suite à l’intégration européenne. Notre travail cherche à regarder la culture politique roumaine en miroir de celle européenne, prenant acte de la difficulté à sortir de soi. Une Roumanie européanisée et démocrate dévient plus fictive que jamais. L’européanisation n’améliore pas la qualité de l’exercice démocratique. Prisonnière de la continuité des élites qui entretiennent un lien étroit avec le passé, la culture politique roumaine parle plus de continuité que de rupture. L’européanisation n’entraîne pas la Roumanie au passage d’un régime communiste à un régime démocratique, mais à celui d’un communisme national à une démocratie nationale. Les cadres politiques postcommunistes restent producteurs d’idéologie à partir de l’imitation du modèle européen pour redonner un sens à l’action politique. Pourtant, chaque instant ne vaut pas l’imitation, mais aussi de la création.

The Europeanization process invites post-communist Romania to redefine its political culture. Although incomplete, it causes the setting up of retraction mechanisms of politics.The contemporary decline of the representative democracy and of the partisan engagement invites us to redefine the relationship between « Democracy and Europeanization ». As long as the conditions for democratization of the European Union are not settled, they will not aim at the improvement of the democratic exercise of the States that compose it. The establishment of a democratic culture in Romania is impeded by the lack of understanding Politics, but also by the entry into the post-democracy era of a culture whose roots are paternalistic and…

Por mais de uma década, discutiu-se nas ciências sociais comparadas a efetiva influência da atuação do Poder Judiciário na participação democrática dos cidadãos nas decisões e na conformação das políticas públicas. A esse fenômeno, que se denominou "judicialização da política", atribui-se toda a operacionalidade de uma constituição democrática, cidadã, aberta, capaz de concretizar os anseios de liberdade, às vezes apenas condizentes com valores de um liberalismo conservador. Nossa tese procura, com ajuda de pesquisa empírica, demonstrar a persistente influência dos ranços tradicionalistas de uma classe que, ao longo da curta vida emancipada de nosso país, construiu e permeou, com sua visão de mundo, as instituições políticas nacionais. A atuação corporativa e institucionalizada dessa classe de juristas adaptou-se bem às exigências da ampliação infraestrutural do Estado moderno e burocrático, em virtude de seu legado autoritário, e logrou restringir o alcance das liberdades e direitos civis de um Estado recém democratizado, apesar do discurso apologético às instituições da democracia participativa. É nesse contexto que tentamos narrar a evolução contínua e silenciosa da dejudicialização da política democrática de massas e a politização gradual da corporação dos juristas, que carregaram consigo as expectativas de ampliação da cidadania constitucional.

The effective influence of the Judiciary Branch on citizen participation in political decisions and policy making has been discussed in social sciences for more than a decade. To this phenomenon, entitled judicialization of politics, was attributed the operability of a democratic constitution, open and capable of achieving the aspirations of freedom, nonetheless only consistent with the values of a conservative liberalism. With the aid of empirical research, our thesis aims at demonstrating the persistent influence of traditionalist inheritance of a social class which, throughout the country short existence, constructed and permeated national political institutions with its worldview. The corporative and institutionalized behavior of this class of jurists from the highest court was well adapted with demands of the modern states institutions expansion, due to its authoritarian legacy and aimed at restricting the reach for freedom and for civil rights of a newly democratic country, despite the constant allusions to participatory democracy. In this context we will try to narrate the continuous and silent evolution of the desjudicialization of mass democratic politics and the gradual politization of jurists corporation, which carry alongside the expectations of an expansion of constitutional citizenship.

▼ Unique to nineteenth-century Spain and Central America, the pronunciamiento can be interpreted as an act of insubordination against ruling authorities, which included a written document with a list of complaints or demands. The practice was almost always carried out by members of the army, but usually involved heavy participation by political and civilian sectors of society as well. The pronunciamiento more often than not contained a threat of military violence if the grievances of the pronunciados were not listened to; as a result, it carried with it the implicit consequence of armed revolt. The pronunciamiento was responsible for major political changes in early nineteenth-century Mexico and Yucatán, and was also one of the most powerful forces of political and societal destabilisation during this period. Indeed, the pronunciamiento was responsible for the establishment of federalist and centralist systems, changes of constitutions, and constant overthrows of presidents. This was also true on a smaller scale in Yucatán, as the pronunciamiento was not only used to depose governors and administrations, but was the key negotiatory mechanism between the Yucatecan and Mexican administrations; yucatecos resorted to the pronunciamiento to realise their secessions from and reunifications to Mexico throughout the early nineteenth century. The aim of this thesis is to expose the dynamic of the Yucatecan pronunciamiento. It will challenge the present depiction of the pronunciamiento as military exercise of destabilization, and will instead concentrate on exposing it as a highly intricate process of political representation and negotiation, at both local and national levels. This will not only contribute toward a greater understanding of pronunciamiento culture on a local and more general scale, but will also reveal a more comprehensive analysis of the socio-political and economic circumstances of nineteenth-century Yucatán. This in turn will aid in re-defining early nineteenth-century Mexico, questioning its traditional depiction as an age of “chaos”, and instead exposing it as one dominated by political and ideological forces and factions, who used the pronunciamiento to express their beliefs and to negotiate for change.

Thesis Ph. D. Michigan State University. Political Science 2016

While research on conspiracy theories and those who believe them has recently undergone an empirical renaissance, there still exists a great deal of uncertainty about the measurement of conspiratorial beliefs and predispositions, and the consequences of a conspiratorial mindset when it comes to expressly political attitudes and behaviors. Unfortunately, current strategies for measuring the latent trait that informs conspiratorial beliefs are affected by error attributable to partisan motivated reasoning, social desirability concerns, and the peculiar content and context of specific conspiracy theories. In this project, I first demonstrate, using data from the 2012 American National Election Study, that beliefs in a variety of specific conspiracy theories are simultaneously the product of both a general predisposition toward conspiratorial thinking and partisanship. I further find, using survey data gathered via Amazon’s Mechanical Turk platform, that the level of partisan content ingrained within conspiracy theories varies tremendously across conspiracy theories, including even inherently “political” conspiracies.Next, I use unique data gathered via a module on the 2014 Cooperative Congressional Election Study (CCES) and reigning theory on the characteristics of conspiratorial thinking to construct and validate a cumulative, unidimensional scale of conspiratorial thinking. I find that a substantial proportion of the population is highly suspicious of governmental authority. In addition to being related to other constructs and attitudes such as authoritarianism, trust, and perceptions of governmental corruption, the conspiratorial thinking scale strongly predicts conspiratorial attitudes about genetically-modified foods, the link between childhood vaccines and autism, the birthplace of Barack Obama, governmental knowledge about the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and the assassination of John F. Kennedy.Finally, I demonstrate the effects of conspiratorial thinking on a variety of political phenomena of normative interest to political scientists. First, I consider the moderating role of a conspiratorial mindset when it comes to traditional relationships like the one between partisanship and attitudes about the role of government. More specifically, I demonstrate that as one’s level of conspiratorial thinking increases, the ties between partisanship and feelings about the federal government, attitudes about the scope and reach of government, preferences about the level of governmental spending and production of services, and sup- port for the Tea Party simultaneously dissolve. Second, I find that conspiratorial thinking is negatively related to approval of major governmental institutions, including the president, Congress, and the Supreme Court. Lastly, I corroborate recent work showing the negative relationship between conspiratorial thinking and participation in campaign activities, and extend this work by demonstrating the negative effect of conspiratorial…

▼ This dissertation discusses United Arab Emirates (UAE) state-society relations in historical perspective; analyses qualitatively the Emirati political culture; examines how the latter affects governmental policies in the UAE; and evaluates both qualitatively and quantitatively the political orientations and values of the Emirati educated youth. Through a discussion of existing theoretical and conceptual approaches, and the observation of the UAE case study, it argues that an important and overlooked dimension among students of state-society relations in authoritarian rentier states is citizens’ political culture, which should nonetheless be examined within a more integrative framework of analysis. Accordingly, this study employs a refined version of the holistic ‘state-in-society’ approach (Kamrava, 2008), in combination with rentier state theory (RST) and the political culture perspective (Almond & Verba, 1963), to qualitatively discuss the general Emirati political culture (agency/input), and assess how the latter affects governmental performance/policies (output); and to evaluate, both qualitatively and quantitatively, the political culture of the educated Emirati youth as the main potential supporters or opponents (agency/input) of the ruling elite. Adding to the debate around the continued significance and scope of RST, the dissertation concludes that the rentier nature of a state does not necessarily determine its people´s lack of interest in politics, but can actually empower them to challenge authoritarianism through political socialization. The historical approach to UAE political movements and discussion about contemporary political standpoints demonstrate that governmental policies (redistributive, co-optative, repressive, or reformist) are mainly driven by domestic pressure and run parallel to historical development of domestic political activism. Hence, rentierism by itself does is not sufficient to explain state-society relations in the Gulf region. Finally, the analysis and measurement of cognitive, affective and evaluative political orientations of Emirati UAEU students reflects that there is adherence to ‘post-materialistic’ and ‘self-expression’ values among important sectors of the Emirati educated youth, which are associated with the emergence of a participative political culture (Inglehart & Welzel, 2005): an ‘aspiring participant’ political culture.

▼ When Antonio de Morga arrived as President of the Audiencia in Quito, a Spanish “kingdom” in middle of the Andes, the prominent families of the city presented him with several tokens of appreciation and allegiance, both to his person and to the king, whom he represented. Far from a shallow custom that allowed local elites to ostent their livery and meet the agents of colonial power, encounters such as this symbolized the renewal of the contractual notion of allegiance prevalent in the Spanish political system. Morga governed for the longest term in Quito’s history, navigating a complex, consensual system, with enduring effects in the region’s political life. Nevertheless, the skilled president has become an inconspicuous side-note in the historiography of the viceroyalty of Peru. Most of the scholarship has focused on his role in the early history of the Philippines, disregarding many of the significant features of Don Antonio’s multifaceted bureaucratic service, and neglecting what I hope to show is an opportunity to examine an archetype – or perhaps epitype – of Spanish political and administrative performance in the overseas territories. I try to deepen knowledge on Morga´s career in an attempt to understand four aspects of political culture in the Real Audiencia in Quito in the seventeenth century:political practices, factions, means of political representation, and social inclusion. That Spanish authorities negotiated obedience with locally powerful and particular interests is not a new idea, but I contribute to the field by revealing and describing patterns of political behavior in the audiencias. Historians have favored the idea that “colonial” politics were parochial, focused on mere profiteering, driven by localism and dominated by an exclusive oligarchy. I contend that this characterization is inaccurate. The global implications of imperial policy required effective mechanisms of governance and of social and political inclusion to accommodate a wider reange of individuals, groups and interests than historical tradition commonly covers. Without outlets of such collaborators the Spanish monarchy could not successfully have exerted dominance in the region for over three centuries.

Du 11 septembre aux extraterrestres, des camps de concentration américains à l'assassinat de Kennedy, cette thèse a pour objectif d'éclairer sous un angle sociopolitique les fondements, les mécanismes et les enjeux de la pensée conspirationniste aux États-Unis depuis la révolution jusqu'à nos jours. S'il ne s'agit pas de dresser un catalogue exhaustif de toutes les théories du complot en vogue, le but demeure de démontrer que le conspirationnisme est un véritable fait social aux États-Unis, un élément de culture politique et populaire. Cette thèse se propose alors d'étudier les rouages et les origines du conspirationnisme sous trois aspects différents et complémentaires qui forment un triangle. D'abord, sous l'angle factuel, c'est-à-dire en étudiant les thèses du complot relatives à un événement extraordinaire (9/11, assassinat de JFK, etc.). Ensuite, sous l'angle des acteurs du conspirationnisme : les leaders conspirationnistes (LaRouche, Icke, etc.), les citoyens enquêteurs et les boucs-émissaires (communistes, juifs, illuminatis, etc.). Enfin, sous l'angle culturel en mettant en perspective le conspirationnisme avec la culture américaine : l'anti-étatisme, la présence de mafias ou encore le cinéma de masse.

From 9/11 to UFOs, from American concentration camps to the Kennedy's assassination, this dissertation aims to enlighten, through a sociopolitical analysis, the grounds, the mechanics and the goals of the conspiratorial thought in the United States since the Revolution. Even Though it is no question to draw an exhaustive catalog of each and every conspiracy theory, I would stress that conspiracism is part of the American political and popular culture. Then, this dissertation studies the origins and the developments of conspiracism through three complementary focuses. First, a factual approach which dwells on specific conspiracy theories such as the 9/11 attacks or the assassination of Kennedy. Secondly, I will come on the actors of conspiracism : the conspiracist leaders (LaRouche, Icke) the citizens sleuths and the scapegoats (Communists, Jews, Illuminatis). Finally, under a cultural angle, I will outlook conspiracism and the American culture of anti-statism, the presence of mafias or the role of mass-medias.
