An Economic Analysis Of Cyber Warfare Governance Models, Kevin M. Kelleher
An Economic Analysis Of Cyber Warfare Governance Models, Kevin M. Kelleher
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Allusions to death delivered by bits and bytes have been in vogue since the Reagan administration.

Black Finesse Amidst The Political Science Paradigm: A Race-Grounded Phenomenology, Janiece Zalina Mackey
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In this research, I develop a methodology that I call Race-Grounded Phenomenology (RGP). The scope of this study investigates how Black undergraduate students navigate the discipline of political science. An eclectic array of critical theories of race unveil the ways in which Black undergraduate students exhibit flair and tenacity, or what I call Black Finesse. The eclectic array of critical theories of race utilized in this study include critical race theory, critical whiteness studies, and identity enactments. However, this study focuses on the Black student experience amidst the socialization of political science or what I call the political science paradigm. …
