Research Products

Latinx populations in the USA have grown steadily in recent decades, with significant increases taking place in “new destination communities” of the U.S. South. The focus of our paper is to highlight opportunities for working with these populations, including traditional sociolinguistic ethnographies and community-engaged research. We highlight an initiative named “The SEC Spanish Consortium” which is an interinstitutional collaboration centered on scholarship and service involving Latinx populations in new destination communities of the U.S. South. We show that ongoing and future scholarly work in the U.S. South can act as a mechanism for documenting these emerging Latinx communities while simultaneously …

Ancient Rome And Modern Russia: A Comparative Analysis Of Propaganda And Statecraft During Times Of Conflict, Sydney Lynch

Venture: The University of Mississippi Undergraduate Research Journal

The careful study of trends in propaganda can provide dramatic insights into the political climate of a particular nation. Specifically, shifts in either the narrative or dissemination of propaganda during times of great conflict or domestic turmoil illuminate to outside audiences where the government feels there are possible weaknesses that could fracture and eventually destroy the security and legitimacy of their regime. Therefore, this paper investigates the Kremlin’s recent methods of propaganda and disinformation compared to those of Imperial Rome, allowing for a closer examination of these techniques. Overall, the comparative analysis of Imperial Roman and current Russian propaganda and …

Building A Better Security Force Assistance Brigade, William Bittner

Venture: The University of Mississippi Undergraduate Research Journal

This paper examines the effectiveness of United States Army Security Force Assistance Brigades (SFABs) in training and advising partner militaries while preserving conventional force readiness. A shortage of volunteers, the manpower demands of embedded security, and lack of a Congressional funding authority have made SFABs and the conventional force less ready for operations. These challenges will be analyzed through the lens of institutional theory to identify systemic threats to the viability of SFABs. This paper posits that an advisor career field should be created in response to an institutional aversion to non-combat roles. Further, the Army should eliminate or shrink …

Recent adjustments in traffic laws have begun a reduction in road fatalities, but they still do not account for the discrepancy between Chile and other states. …

Cultural Imperialism In The Roman Empire: A Give And Take Relationship Between Imperial Rome And Provincial/External Cultures, Hailey Smith

Venture: The University of Mississippi Undergraduate Research Journal

The Roman Empire is often credited with being highly culturally influential both in its time and in later cultural contexts. However, the cultural aspects of art, politics, militarism, etc. for which the Roman Empire is known are the result of interactions between the imperial regime and external entities. The history of the Roman Empire is well documented, but few historians have analyzed the role of conquered cultures and foreign parties on the cultural evolution of Rome. To address these overlooked dynamics between existing cultural groups and their influences on each other, I explore the concepts of ethnicity and framework provided …
