ABSTRACT The National Resistance Movement government in Uganda after three decades in power still appeals to the legacy of the liberation struggle to reaffirm and legitimize its control over the state. The Uganda People’s Defence Forces as the regime’s historical midwife play a critical role in these symbolic politics. Retaining institutions and practices of revolutionary politicization, the military serves in political, social and economic roles which blur the boundaries between the civilian and the military. In this way, the military conveys the moral and coercive authority of the post-revolutionary regime.

永远的革命先锋:乌干达人民国防军的解放遗产,已有30年历史了

摘要乌干达执政三十年后,国民抵抗运动政府仍在呼吁解放斗争的遗产,以重申其对国家的控制权并使其合法化。乌干达人民国防军是该政权的历史助产士,在这些象征性政治中扮演着至关重要的角色。军队保留着革命性政治化的机构和实践,在政治,社会和经济领域中发挥着作用,模糊了平民与军队之间的界限。这样,军队传达了革命后政权的道义和强制性权威。
