Job Satisfaction Of Police Officers In Second Class Cities In Kentucky, Joan Robertson

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

The purpose of this study is to attempt to find out how the police officers in the second-class cities in Kentucky view their work. Questions asked concern relationships with the public, their supervisors, and co-workers; opinions of recent court rulings affecting their work; and their sentiments about salaries and plans to continue in police work. After assessing the job satisfaction of the officers, the results were correlated with other studies and recommendations are made directed toward increasing the officers' motivation and effectiveness in performing their duties.

The Venezuelan Senate:A Legislative Body In The Context Of Development., Russell Lynn Kelley Feb 1973

The Venezuelan Senate:A Legislative Body In The Context Of Development., Russell Lynn Kelley

Political Science ETDs

Until recently little information has been available in English on Latin America's national legislatures. This study was undertaken to provide substantive knowledge about the Senate, and the role it plays, ' in the political system of Venezuela; and to permit the development of more accurate general theory on the legislative process.

Field research conducted in 1968-1969 concentrated upon the Senate's institutional development in the post dictatorial period. Specifically, the Senate of the 1964- 1969 constitutional term was analyzed in depth. For this purpose, the Senate was conceptualized as a subsystem with linkages to the political system. Two main sources of …

A Comparative Analysis Of The Student Movements In The United States And Japan, 1964-1970, Charlotte Jackson Lerch Jan 1973

A Comparative Analysis Of The Student Movements In The United States And Japan, 1964-1970, Charlotte Jackson Lerch

Master's Theses

The basic question seems to be this: are there, indeed, any experiences similar enough to say that the basic causes of student unrest in the United States and Japan are the same? I would hypothesize that there are. It is my thesis that student unrest and the causes of student unrest in highly advanced countries are similar. While students may be dissatisfied with the same structures within their societies. Therefore, I intend to demonstrate in this paper, my thesis that student unrest and the cause of student unrest in modern countries are similar.


Utopian Communalism: A Comparison Of 19th And 20th Century Phenomena In The United States, Truman David Wood Jan 1973

Utopian Communalism: A Comparison Of 19th And 20th Century Phenomena In The United States, Truman David Wood

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

The utopian communal phenomenon has been present in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The longevity of various religious and secular utopian communal experiments is examined in terms of four organizational factors and the twentieth century communes are considered in terms of four ideals. The main stream of American society has assimilated nothing from these utopian communal experiments.

Lesson For America? England's Development Areas, Thomas G. Current Oct 1972

Lesson For America? England's Development Areas, Thomas G. Current

Dissertations and Theses

The work is a descriptive and comparative study of the British program for economically lagging regions of the country. The author's special interest was local participation in the central Government activity. Secondary sources of information on local aspects were in short supply, and the writer relied upon interviews and unpublished documents obtained on a visit to England to supplement published material. His extensive experience in the American development program also was utilized.

The study offers a classification of elements in the programs of the two countries and identifies comparable trends which have carried further in the British experience. The study …

The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

in this issue. . .

ANTICIPATING a presidential election, with its quadrennial testing of national purpose, shortly after the appearance of this October 1972 issue of THE MIDWEST QUARTERLY, we call attention to the timeliness of articles dealing with the American dilemma in Southeast Asia, the cultural strain of an expanding technology, the brain glut of unemployed scientists as a special instance of that strain, and the evidence, slight as yet but worrisome, of a new barbarism bred by what the McLuhanites call the "cool" medium TV. This timeliness is part luck and part planning. Out of the ever increasing …

Libertinism, Political Activism And Religious Conservatism: Some Correlates Of Anomie, George Wade Jul 1972

Libertinism, Political Activism And Religious Conservatism: Some Correlates Of Anomie, George Wade

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

The present study concerns college students in particular, the attitudes they hold toward both their society and their own personal life within that society, and how these attitudes affect their behavior. The six specific variables being dealt with are libertinism, religious conservatism, political activism, personal anomie, systemic anomie, and probusiness. These are viewed from the perspective that the attitudes and opinions held by the students will influence their behavior. Specifically, this perspective views feelings of anomie or alienation (the two terms will be used interchangeably throughout) as affecting the religious, political, and libertine views and behavior of the students. This …

Entrepreneurship And Economic Development: A Critique Of The Theory, Rhoda E. Howard-Hassmann Mar 1972

Entrepreneurship And Economic Development: A Critique Of The Theory, Rhoda E. Howard-Hassmann

Political Science Faculty Publications

This thesis is a criticism of the "entrepreneurial school" of economic development, which contends that a major cause of underdevelopment in the Third World is the poor "entrepreneurial spirit" in these areas. The entrepreneurial spirit consists of certain values and behaviour which it is presumed existed in the West at the time of its development. To test the validity of this theory empirical evidence on entrepreneurs is examined; this evidence includes historical data on the West, especially the United States and France, and twenty-one area studies of entrepreneurs in the Third World. The evidence suggests that there is little difference …

The Impact Of Religion On Political Development, Jooinn Lee Jan 1972

The Impact Of Religion On Political Development, Jooinn Lee

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

The author attempts to formulate a broad-gauge theory, the conceptual framework designed to discover the influence of religion upon the development of the political system and politics. By systematically examining both the social effects of religion and the place of religious institutions in society, the author seeks to determine whether religion is a causal factor of political development, thus supporting his thesis that there is a kind of dialectical relationship between religion and political development.


Influence--A Comparative Study In Three Rural Communities, David M. Slipy, Dennis Kleinsasser Jan 1972

Influence--A Comparative Study In Three Rural Communities, David M. Slipy, Dennis Kleinsasser

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

Community influentials have long been of interest to researcher and practioner alike. This paper deals with both the theoretical and methodological problems of identifying informal leaders. The influentials of the three communities are identified, and their social demographic, community participation and attitudinal characteristics are scrutinized. Finally, the value of these comparisons, especially for the community development specialist, are examined.

The Development Of Municipal Government In The Territory Of Utah, Alvin Charles Koritz Jan 1972

The Development Of Municipal Government In The Territory Of Utah, Alvin Charles Koritz

Theses and Dissertations

In 1846 the Mormons were expelled westward from Nauvoo, Illinois. Beyond the borders of the United States, the Mormon Church absorbed the civil functions of municipal government, a pattern which continued in the Great Basin and received the sanction of state authority in 1849 under Deseret.

As the political arm of the "Kingdom of God," the Council of Fifty influenced local political development as its members simultaneously occupied elective offices in both the territorial legislature and municipal government.

During the first decade as a territory, Utah's city charters generally followed the pattern established by Nauvoo in 1840. However, in the …
