Review Of Economic Adaptation: Alternatives For Nonmetropolitan Areas By David L. Barkley, Richard L. Meile
Review Of Economic Adaptation: Alternatives For Nonmetropolitan Areas By David L. Barkley, Richard L. Meile
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
The purpose of David L. Barkley's edited work is to examine critically the policy and practice of rural economic development in the United States during the last quarter century. To that end Barkley has brought together leading economists, regional scientists, and several sociologists to review and evaluate the current status of rural economic development.
Many of the contributors to the volume, especially Professors Lobao and Summers, allude to the significance of a globalized economy to development in non-metropolitan areas of the country. The volume shows, to paraphrase Lobao, that strategies focusing on recapitalizing rural communities do not work everywhere or …
Review Of Roadside History Of South Dakota By Linda Hasselstrom, Darrell Napton
Review Of Roadside History Of South Dakota By Linda Hasselstrom, Darrell Napton
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
The best parts of this book are the introductions to South Dakota and to each of the four regions into which Hasselstrom divides the state. In these sixty pages, she distills the state's history and cultural geography. Linda Hasselstrom is one of South Dakota's most accomplished native writers. Her writing is clean and easy to read. She explains what it is to be South Dakotan as only a native could, but retains the ability to step back and see the state objectively.
Intended for an audience of armchair travelers, vacationers, and casual history buffs, the book is organized around four …

Review Of From Columbus To Conagra: The Globalization Of Agriculture And Food, Edited By Allessandro Bonanno, Lawrence Busch, William Frieland, Lourdes Gouveia, And Enzo Mingione, R. Douglas Hurt
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
Despite differing definitions, most scholars agree that the late twentieth century is an age of globalization in agriculture and the food industry. For some, globalization means the elimination of trade barriers; for others it involves the development of international relationships in production and distribution. Globalization, however, is exemplified for all by transnational corporations (TNCs), such as ConAgra, that own and control a variety of world-wide production and distribution systems, thereby controlling millions of workers, manipulating governments, and changing consumption patterns. In contrast to corporations of the past, TNCs essentially exist independently of nation states. Although national and international laws provide …
Review Of Meatpackers And Beef Barons: Company Town In A Global Economy By Carol Andreas, Laura Lacasa
Review Of Meatpackers And Beef Barons: Company Town In A Global Economy By Carol Andreas, Laura Lacasa
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
Lamenting the exploitation of meatpackers at the hands of America's multi-billion dollar beef industry, sociologist Carol Andreas presents a case study of ConAgra, Inc.'s operations in Greeley, Colorado. Andreas asserts that large companies purposely exploit labor to survive in a highly competitive global market. Accordingly, she argues that the u.s. meatpacking industry, epitomized by ConAgra's operations, represents a flawed economic system that fails to offer advantages either to blue-collar workers or their communities.
Review Of Interest Group Politics In The Midwestern States By Ronald J. Hrebenar And Clive S. Thomas, Russell Ross
Review Of Interest Group Politics In The Midwestern States By Ronald J. Hrebenar And Clive S. Thomas, Russell Ross
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
This interesting collection of studies considers as "Midwestern" the states of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. Its nineteen contributors, authorities in state politics and government, achieve an overall consistency among their chapters by adhering to the editors' outline of the volume's subject matter. Although published in 1994, much of the book's research was done in the 1980s.
Review Of Alberta's Local Governments: Politics And Democracy By Jack Masson, Louis A. Knafla
Review Of Alberta's Local Governments: Politics And Democracy By Jack Masson, Louis A. Knafla
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
The authors, of the University of Alberta, have presented here a lengthy examination of democracy and political practice in the province's rural and urban communities, essentially from the 1880s to 1994. In addition to the communities themselves, the authors also examine the relations between municipalities and the provincial government, the growth of greater local self-government, representation and accountability, the territorial decentralization of municipal economic activity, and the recent transfer of the costs of local government from the province to municipalities.
U.S. Security Assistance To Latin America, Valerie S. Payne

Theses and Dissertations
The United States employs security assistance as an instrument of foreign policy.

Qualitative analysis was used consisting of historical and archival research of government documents and secondary sources. A literature review was conducted to discover general trends concerning security assistance to include its establishment as an arm of foreign policy, its problems, and its purpose. Presidential policies toward Latin America are analyzed during and after World War II, to include Kennedy's Alliance for Progress, Nixon Doctrine, …

United States Security Assistance Training Of Latin American Militaries: Intentions And Results, Barry L. Brewer
Theses and Dissertations
The United States has used security assistance training in Latin America as an element of foreign policy. This study determines intentions and results of security assistance training in Latin America and analyzes training statistics to evaluate its use as an instrument of foreign policy. This study also assesses the contribution of defense schools where Latin Americans receive security assistance training in their native Spanish language. The overriding purpose behind this research is to determine if security assistance training was intended to be a Cold War instrument of foreign policy or if it is an instrument of a more enduring nature. …
The Foundation Of United States Security Assistance To Egypt: 1969-1979, Donald S. Massey
The Foundation Of United States Security Assistance To Egypt: 1969-1979, Donald S. Massey
Theses and Dissertations
This study sought to identify the role of U.S. foreign policy in shaping Egypt's transition from Soviet economic and military aid to U.S. security assistance from 1969 to 1979 and the factors shaping that transition. An historical analysis of the Nixon, Ford, and Carter Administrations and their foreign policy towards Egypt and the Middle East during the period in question was employed to complete this study. The researcher determined that U.S. diplomacy and dialogue in negotiating an Egyptian-Israeli peace resulted in the end to Soviet economic and military aid to Egypt. During the negotiating process, U.S. economic and military aid …

The participants were placed in three groups based on the personality dimension of agreeableness. Group 1 consisted of eleven sub-groups of randomly paired individuals ranked high on agreeableness. Group 2 consisted of eleven subgroups of randomly paired individuals ranked low on agreeableness. Members of group 3 worked individually.

Foreign Military Sales Policy Of The Kennedy Presidential Administration, Philip P. Nardi
Foreign Military Sales Policy Of The Kennedy Presidential Administration, Philip P. Nardi
Theses and Dissertations
Since the 'Truman Doctrine' was enunciated in 1947, the United States has pursued its foreign policy objectives using various forms of economic and military assistance. With the majority of this assistance aimed at containing communist expansionism, the United States' allies became increasingly dependent upon large amounts of grant military assistance. As President John F. Kennedy assumed office the economic burden of this grant assistance came under increasing scrutiny. This study analyzes the role of the Kennedy administration in the evolution of military assistance from grants to sales. An in-depth literature review focusing on historical reviews of this topic, and congressional …
United States Security Assistance 1977-1980: Human Rights Issues Affecting Arms Transfers, Gary E. Gordon
United States Security Assistance 1977-1980: Human Rights Issues Affecting Arms Transfers, Gary E. Gordon
Theses and Dissertations
The 1970s were a period of great transition for the United States. Plagued by the Vietnam conflict, a conflict which we could never win because of poor planning and lack of resolve by government officials in the highest office, and the Watergate debacle, where our government veered out of control, the time was ripe for change. Which is precisely why the ideals and philosophies of one James Earl Carter enabled him to ascend to become the 39th President of the United States. President Carter entered office pledging the United States would lead the way in the restriction of weapons exports …
