Performing Selves/Performing As Self: Autobiographical Films Of Children Of Jewish Holocaust Survivors, Jennifer Levi Oct 1999

Performing Selves/Performing As Self: Autobiographical Films Of Children Of Jewish Holocaust Survivors, Jennifer Levi

Journal of Religion & Film

For many Holocaust survivors, one of the most difficult obstacles to overcome is the simultaneous need to tell one's story and the awareness that language cannot convey the horrors of the experience. This awareness that words fall to communicate across generations, cultures, religions, etc. is the legacy of children of Jewish Holocaust survivors who both can't understand and are formed by their parents' stories/experiences. By engaging Deb Filler's film rendition of her one-woman stage show, Punch Me in the Stomach, and Abraham Ravett's documentary Everything's for You, I explore the ways in which film allows the second generation …

The Risks Of Adjudicating Vichy, Richard H. Weisberg

Articles

The article examines the risks and implications of adjudicating Vichy-era officials, focusing on Maurice Papon's trial for crimes against humanity. It highlights how the trial exposed France's complicity in the Holocaust, the role of its legal system in perpetuating anti-Semitic policies, and the challenges of addressing historical injustices decades later.


Using Strategic Partnerships To Create A Sustainable Competitive Position For Hi-Tech Start-Up Firms, Arnoud De Meyer Oct 1999

Using Strategic Partnerships To Create A Sustainable Competitive Position For Hi-Tech Start-Up Firms, Arnoud De Meyer

Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business

In most cases these companies chose or were forced to engage in a technology partnership in order to develop and survive. As one would expect, some of these partnerships succeeded whilst others failed. With hindsight it occurred to the author that success or failure was not necessarily a random event, or idiosyncratic to one particular company, but that there seemed to be a pattern. Some partnerships failed because they were a strategic misfit, others probably because they were badly implemented. Based on these clinical case studies, The author addresses these questions: when and under what conditions a partnership is needed; …


Evaluation Of The Enantiomeric Composition Of Amino Acids In Tobacco, John P. Kullman, Xianghong Chen, Daniel W. Armstrong Oct 1999

Evaluation Of The Enantiomeric Composition Of Amino Acids In Tobacco, John P. Kullman, Xianghong Chen, Daniel W. Armstrong

Chemistry Faculty Research & Creative Works

Despite the fact that several studies have reported the concentrations of various free amino acids in tobacco, their enantiomeric composition is unknown. Both the absolute and enantiomeric compositions of proline, alanine, asparagine, aspartic acid, valine, methionine, leucine, and phenylalanine were determined for three strains of tobacco leaf, three types of smokeless tobacco, and six different blended filtered and nonfiltered reference cigarettes. Some of the highest levels of D-amino acids ever found in agricultural products were observed. Possible mechanisms for the production of these D-amino acids are considered. The relevance of D-amino acids in tobacco is discussed.

Extended Stratification: Immigrant And Native Differences In Individual And Family Labor., Pidi Zhang, Jimy M. Sanders Oct 1999

Extended Stratification: Immigrant And Native Differences In Individual And Family Labor., Pidi Zhang, Jimy M. Sanders

Faculty Publications

The article outlines a theoretical system of extended stratification in order to account for differences between immigrants and natives in the amount of time individuals devote to paid work and the number of family members participating in paid work. The extended stratification theory contends that because people have different socio-economic frames of reference, they vary in their willingness to work long hours in an effort to achieve modest improvements in their current socioeconomic circumstances. Thus, immigrants from relatively poor societies tend to see their richer host society as abundant in opportunities for getting ahead through hard work. Immigrants will often …


The Scope Of Volunteer Activity And Public Service, Eleanor Brown Oct 1999

The Scope Of Volunteer Activity And Public Service, Eleanor Brown

Law and Contemporary Problems

Brown offers an overview of the scope of volunteering in the US, beginning with a definition of volunteers. She then considers the purposes to which volunteer labor is put, and examines some determinates of volunteering, paying particular attention to factors shaping the volunteer activities of the young and the old.


The Constitutionality Of Mandatory Public School Community Service Programs, Rodney A. Smolla Oct 1999

The Constitutionality Of Mandatory Public School Community Service Programs, Rodney A. Smolla

Law and Contemporary Problems

Constitutional challenges to community service programs may be divided into two generic types--those raised by students or parents who object to the requirement of community service, and those raised by students, parents, organizations, or agencies who object to the selection criteria used to include or exclude organizations or agencies eligible to participate in community service programs.


Citizen Soldiers: The North Carolina Volunteers And The War On Poverty, Robert R. Korstad, James L. Leloudis Oct 1999

Citizen Soldiers: The North Carolina Volunteers And The War On Poverty, Robert R. Korstad, James L. Leloudis

Law and Contemporary Problems

During the summers of 1964 and 1965, more than 300 college students fanned out across the state of North Carolina in a bold campaign to defeat poverty and, as they saw it, to uplift the poor. Korstad and Leloudis trace the history of the North Carolina Fund's Volunteers program, provide an analysis of the contribution that those students made to fighting poverty in the state, and evaluate the impact of that experience on the lives of the Volunteers themselves.

The Trust Offshore, Antony G.D. Duckworth Oct 1999

The Trust Offshore, Antony G.D. Duckworth

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

I was not present at the birth of the offshore financial centers or of their trust business, but I am told that the mother was taxation. Perhaps that is an oversimplification, but I do not doubt that taxation was the major influence. The typical settlor was a taxpayer from one of the major common law countries, and his primary motive for going offshore was tax avoidance. But there were also a few settlors from other places, some motivated by estate planning considerations (the trust allowing them to make property arrangements which could not be made at home), some by fear …


Understanding Hearts—Elizabeth Seton And Louise De Marillac, Betty Ann Mcneil D.C. Oct 1999

Understanding Hearts—Elizabeth Seton And Louise De Marillac, Betty Ann Mcneil D.C.

Vincentian Studies

The similarities in the lives, spirituality, and mission of Elizabeth Seton and Louise de Marillac are examined. Both lost their mothers early in life, and both were wives, mothers, and widows. They had nursed terminally ill husbands and were single parents before they founded their communities. These life experiences had a significant impact on their service. Similar experiences led to their personal conversion. Elizabeth’s knowledge of Louise and the influence of the Rules and vows of the Daughters of Charity on the Sisters of Charity are described. The mission of both communities and the virtues that the foundresses instilled in …


Pierre Coste And Catherine Labouré: The Conflict Of Historical Criticism And Popular Devotion, Stafford Poole C.M. Oct 1999

Pierre Coste And Catherine Labouré: The Conflict Of Historical Criticism And Popular Devotion, Stafford Poole C.M.

Vincentian Studies

Pierre Coste’s analysis of Catherine Labouré and her visions serves as a case study in “the tension that can exist between the demands of a dispassionate historical criticism and those of popular devotion.” He did not believe in the visions and tried to prevent Catherine’s beatification. Publication of his research would not have been permitted, so he held one view publicly and another privately. Stafford Poole’s study uses two versions of Coste’s treatise, giving the publications and testimonies of the visions in chronological order and following each with Coste’s criticism. Among other things, he was troubled by the fact that …


Vincent In Translation, Marie Poole D.C. Oct 1999

Vincent In Translation, Marie Poole D.C.

Vincentian Studies

The Vincent Translation Project began in 1973 with the goal of producing “a modern American English edition of the extant works” of Vincent de Paul. Marie Poole explains the way the project is conducted, its challenges, and its contributions to scholarship. It is particularly through Vincent’s correspondence that we understand who he was as a person. Poole describes his time and his personality, especially as the latter was impacted by his Gascon heritage. She also specifies his relevance for many types of people today.

Zagorski, Midwest Quarterly Editors

The Midwest Quarterly: A Journal of Contemporary Thought

As MICHELLE SCALISE SUGIYAMA shows, author Sandra Cisneros uses women's shoes and feet as potent symbols and actual examples of male manipulation of female sexuality and freedom. An Affiliate of the Institute for Cognitive and Decision Sciences at the University of Oregon and of the Center for Evolutionary Psychology at the University of California, Santa Barbara, Sugiyama approaches the universal behavior of storytelling from a cognitive and anthropological perspective. Her work can be found in The Hemingway Review, Human Nature, Mosaic, and Skeptic, and she is completing a book-length study developing an alternative to Freudian literary analysis and its derivatives …
