Apr 18	comment	Have there been historical precedents for Ecuador's defaulting on Odious Debt? @DVK: I din't realise that there was one. I'll migrate this question to there; and try to make this more historical.

Jun 21	comment	Which European countries did not have a revolution in the aftermath of the French Revolution and why? @mgb: interesting point. Why is the french revolution seen as the paradigm for all future ones, whilst the english civil war is quietly buried would be a good question.
Jun 20	comment	Which European countries did not have a revolution in the aftermath of the French Revolution and why? You could consider that England had a 'slow revolution' that sidelined the monarchy and extended the democratic franchise to all adults.
Jun 19	comment	Fanons 'Concerning Violence' makes the point that Nazism was the culminating point of the project of European Colonialism, how true is that? I think Fanon was getting at the correspondance between European expansion/domination, Nazi Master Race narrative, and Extermination/Concentration Camps of the Jews with Continental Expansion/Domination, White European supremacy and Extermination/Reservations for the natives. I don't know what he would have made of the Romans. I think Alexander the Great encouraged his men to marry into the local women. The Ptolemies carried on the tradition of the Pharoahs.

Jun 14	comment	Is there any documentation that indicates the Aztecs were as violent as they are made out? @Anixx: It seems remarkable that Zumarraga had access to all such texts. Have any Aztec texts survived? I had assumed that they didn't have an elaborate literary culture.
Jun 14	comment	Is there any documentation that indicates the Aztecs were as violent as they are made out? @jfrankcarr: Modern Jain monks have a practise - Sallekhana - which could be termed as ritual sacrifice, where they starve themselves to death. However they regard suicide as a sin against life, and do not themselves view this as suicide. My question was referring to how the Aztec themselves viewed what we term human sacrifice.
