A Test Of Max Weber’S Theory Of Charismatic Leadership In A Third World Case: Cuba’S Fidel Castro, Leida Javier-Vivoni

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

In this thesis a limited test of Max Weber's theory of charisma was conducted by applying it to the case of a Third World leader, that of Fidel Castro. This was achieved by reviewing and analyzing Weber's original formulation, the various interpretations of it that followed, and the different ways Weber's theory has been reconstructed for the purpose of guiding research on charisma. Ralph Hummel's (1972) and Richard Fagen's (1965) separate sets of propositions, based on reconstructions of different parts of Weber's theory, were chosen to guide the research on Castro's case. The interpretive data generated by this process constituted …

The Experience Of Migration And Selected Perceptions Of Older Residents Of The Waterloo Black Community, Jacqueline Elizabeth Ellis

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

This thesis deals with the experience of migration during the formative years of the Black community of Waterloo, Iowa and perceptions of the quality of life from 1910-1970. This exploratory study is based on survey data and folk/oral history derived fr001 a selected sample of men and women, age 50-90 years, of the Black community of Waterloo. The early history of American Blacks has been grossly neglected by historians and others and, as a result, sources of documented information are limited. Because of this, it is important that existing information be preserved. It is this author's hope that survey data …

A Study Of Selected Aspects Of The Social Studies Curriculum In American Secondary Schools, James Ching-Bin Chang

Graduate Research Papers

The social studies has been changing during the last twenty years. Until the 1970's, more than 100 major social studies curriculum projects were financed by the U. S. federal government, ·foundations, and institutions of higher learning. However, there was little agreement on which concepts or ways of working in the social sciences were most fruitful and representative of accepted structure.

The Flood Of Antievolutionism, Laurie R. Godfrey

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

In 1963, American historian Richard Hofstadter wrote that "today the evolutionary controversy seems as remote as the Homeric era.'' The Biological Sciences Curriculum Study Project, supported in part by federal funds, was preparing secondary school texts that openly presented evolution as the foundation of biology. And George McCready Price, an outspoken leader of the protest against evolution in the days of the Scopes "monkey trial" and author of numerous antievolutionary tomes, including The Phantom of Organic Evolution (1924), A History of Some Scientific Blunders (1930), The Modern Flood Theory of Geology (1935), and Genesis Vindicated (1941), died at the age …

Brain Growth: Intuitive And Scientific, Karen Marie Patterson

Graduate Research Papers

Developmental processes of the brain have long been considered the last frontier by scientists as well as educators. There has been much speculation concerning how and when the mind grows and if intellectual growth appears at the same time the skull and brain are physiologically and neurologically growing. Prior to recent research many educators assumed that learning, or intellectual advancement, occurred in an almost continuous manner. Educators felt children built skill upon skill and constantly moved from one stage of cognitive development to the next higher level of cognitive development. Traditionally, educational systems have been based on this concept of …

A Study Of The Teaching Of Literature And The Place Of The Literature Of Iowa In The Secondary English Curriculum, Carol B. Mcmullen

Graduate Research Papers

To a teacher of English in an Iowa high school, it is amazing to find the literature of Iowa is not included in the English curriculum. Anthologies may include a short story by Hamlin Garland or one by Ruth Suckow, but often students are unaware these are Iowa authors. Even the history of Iowa is mandated in the Iowa curriculum. The omission of Iowa literature is disturbing, especially when a wide variety of other literary works are used.

Anti-Evolutionism And The Effects Of The Scopes Trial, John R. Cole

Proceedings of the Iowa Academy of Science

In 1925 John T. Scopes was convicted of the crime of teaching evolution in violation of a new Tennessee law. The circus-like trial has been regarded by many observers as a rite de passage for twentieth century attitudes-although Scopes was convicted, his trial held anti-evolutionism up to wide public ridicule, and his $100 fine was in fact overturned on a technicality upon appeal.

Interpretive Levels And Connections In Margaret Drabble’S The Middle Ground, Earlene Hamel Hawley

Dissertations and Theses @ UNI

This thesis focuses on contemporary British writer Margaret Drabble's ninth and most recent novel, The Middle Ground, as novel and as metaphor. "The middle ground" is a metaphor for the British middle class, about whom Drabble mostly writes; for middle age, which she herself is entering, along with Kate Armstrong, protagonist of the novel; and for the style and stage of Drabble's own career. But, the "middle ground" is an equally apt, if less obvious, metaphor for the narrative which provides the nearly plotless story of The Middle Ground, the area of human relationships, mostly circling Kate. The middle ground …
