A critical review of James Hinton's Protests and Visions: Peace Politics in Twentieth Century Britain (London: Hutchinson Radius, 1989). Hinton argues that British peace politics has been characterized throughout the century by imperialist pacifism (IP) -- the belief in GB's civilizing mission to create a more harmonious international order. GB's renunciation of its weapons would set an exemplary standard for other nations to follow. Hinton aruges that the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament's (CND) program of unilaterlism -- the demand that GB unconditionally relinquish its nuclear weapons & thus take the lead internationally -- was a variant on this perspective. What CND failed to grasp was contemporary GB's very limited leverage on the behavior of other nation states. Although Hinton's arguments are valid, it is noted that unilateralism was a more complex program than Hinton recognizes; by focusing on IP, he underplays the more creative & politically successful aspects of CND's campaigning: eg, its role in the making of the Intermediate Nuclear Forces Treaty in Dec 1987. 16 References.

Abstract:The victim has become among the most important identity positions in American politics. Victimhood is now a pivotal means by which individuals and groups see themselves and constitute themselves as political actors. Indeed, victimhood seems to have become a status that must be established before political claims can be advanced. Victimhood embodies the assertion that an individual or group has suffered wrongs that must be requited. What seems new is that wounded groups assert a self-righteous claim that they stand for something larger than their particular injury. The article explores how and why victimhood has become such a powerful theme in American politics. It suggests that victimhood as politics emerged from the contentious politics of the 1960s, specifically the civil rights movement and its aftermath. Key factors include the reaction to the minority rights and women's movements, as well as internal dynamicswithinthe rights movements.
