I denne episoden snakker Sondre med Daniel S. Chard om boken hans "Nixon's war at home. The FBI, Leftist Guerillas, and the Origins of Counterterrorism". I boken viser han blant annet hvordan en byråkratisk maktkamp med president Nixon og FBIs mektige leder J.Edgar Hoover bidro til å forme USAs antiterror-politikk. Denne konflikten lå også til grunn for det som ble Watergate-skandalen. Episoden dreier også over til å diskutere bekjempelse av terrorisme mer generelt. Daniel Chard er professor i historie ved Western Washington University i USA.What has Nixon's war against leftist guerrillas to do with counterterrorism? In this episode the guest is Daniel Chard, professor in history at Western Washington University, USA. He has published the book "Nixon's war at home. The FBI, Leftist Guerillas, and the Origins of Counterterrorism", and we talk at length about the many interesting stories in his book, not least how the bureaucratic infighting between president Nixon and the powerful FBI boss J. Edgar Hoover helped establish counterterrorism in the US. This conflict was also an important factor in what later became the Watergate scandal. The episode then goes on to discuss how modern counterterrorism can be made more effective, humane and emancipatory. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Daniel Chard is a professor of history at Western Washington University whose work focuses on social movements, power, and political violence. His latest book, Nixon's War at Home: The FBI, Leftist Guerillas, and the Origins of Counterterrorism explores the intersection of leftist violence and state repression in the late 1960s and early 1970s. In this conversation, Chard explains how the U.S. government's mission to stop groups like the Weather Underground and the Black Liberation Army fueled a dramatic expansion of state policing powers that gave birth to the age of total surveillance.  Subscribe to access our library of bonus content: patreon.com/nostalgiatrap

Domestic terrorism has been a part of the American political landscape since the rise of the Ku Klux Klan in the Civil War's aftermath. During the turbulent transformation of American society during the 1960s and 1970s, a new kind of domestic terrorism threat emerged. Homegrown leftist guerrilla groups, such as the Weather Underground and the Black Liberation Army, carried out hundreds of attacks in the United States. The Nixon administration went to previously unseen lengths to hunt down student radicals and other political activists who, while in the minority, engaged in bombings and other violence. Author Daniel Chard argues that the Nixon approach, by creating bureaucratic structures, surveillance, and group infiltration tactics, was the progenitor of the methods used during the post‑9/​11 war on terror. Join us for a discussion of Daniel Chard's new book that explores this history and its continuing relevance today. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

“What is needed now is not liberal reform or withdrawal, but a radical attack, a strategy of opposition. Scientific workers must develop ways to put their skills at the service of the people and against the oppressors.” (Zimmerman, et al. 1972). Following the 2014 conference, “Science for the People: The 1970s and Today,” Sigrid Schmalzer, Daniel Chard, and Alyssa Botelho, edited a volume of the Science for the People (SftP) movement, curating numerous documents from the group that are as relevant today as when they were published several decades ago. Science for the People: Documents from America's Movement of Radical Scientists (University of Massachusetts Press, 2018) encapsulates the diverse themes, research, and actions of the movement, which included chapters across the US at one time. Emerging from the radical political culture of the 1960s, and predecessor group, Scientists for Social and Political Action, SftP challenged the value-neutrality of science and technology, and instead sought to democratize science by engaging with other political movements and conducting research with non-experts. While much scientific research continues to be funded by the state or by corporations, SftP provided grassroots scientific and technological assistance and education in a multitude of settings. Just to take a few examples from the volume, these efforts included research for social movements, providing electrical power for a Black Panther free medical clinic, promoting the farming technique of intercropping, as well as distributing resources, literature and education to countries such as Vietnam and Nicaragua. The direction of assistance between SftP and other groups was rarely one-sided, as SftP members absorbed knowledge from other movements and places, as documented in the China: Science Walks on Two Legs selection, wherein several SftP members visited China and learned about some of the traditional science and peasant research conducted in the nation. In addition, through working groups and publications, SftP critiqued racist and sexist science, reductionist biology, nuclear power, weapons research, commercial agriculture, US imperialism, and much more. As their many articles and actions show, SftP did more than just critique mainstream science, they attempted to provide alternatives. Finally, SftP had a formative and lasting effect on Science and Technology Studies through its various studies on the social embeddedness of science and its political uses. Since the 2014 conference, Science for the People has been revitalized through new efforts. Check out https://scienceforthepeople.org/ to see continued and original projects. Chad J.
