Multiculturalism And The Future Of Tribal Sovereignty, Scott C. Idleman Jan 2004

Multiculturalism And The Future Of Tribal Sovereignty, Scott C. Idleman

Faculty Publications

American Indian tribes would appear to be natural constituents and beneficiaries of the multiculturalism movement. Their members are generally conceptualized as racial or ethnic minorities; they have endured social and legal oppression and continue to encounter structural and even intentional discrimination; and, not least importantly, they possess genuinely different cultures and consequently add diverse perspectives to society. Despite this apparent fit, this Article questions the extent to which tribes and tribal members actually should align themselves with multicultural proponents and initiatives. The basis for this inquiry is that, unlike other societal subgroups, each recognized tribe is a distinct geopolitical entity …


Meta-Analysis, Spatial, And Temporal Models To Analyze The Possible Association Between Childhood Leukemia In Proximity To Nuclear Facilities, Peter Baker Jan 2004

Meta-Analysis, Spatial, And Temporal Models To Analyze The Possible Association Between Childhood Leukemia In Proximity To Nuclear Facilities, Peter Baker

MUSC Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this dissertation was to gain a better understanding of the possible association between childhood leukemia and nuclear facilities by conducting a meta-analysis and by the use of spatial and temporal models with respect to Pickering Nuclear Generator (PNG) in Ontario, Canada. The meta-analysis was conducted to combine and statistically analyze the many studies of childhood leukemia in the vicinity of nuclear facilities. Our focus was on studies that calculated SMRs or SIRs for individual nuclear sites. Due to variability between studies in defining age and geographic zones, eight separate analyses were performed based on age and zone …

Sibling Relationships In Remarried Families, Monique C. Diderich Balsam Jan 2004

Sibling Relationships In Remarried Families, Monique C. Diderich Balsam

UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations

This research project examines how different types of sibling relationships, that is, full siblings, half siblings and stepsiblings, develop within remarried families. The study focuses on three types of sibling solidarity: functional (i.e., instrumental help and assistance); associational (i.e., frequency of contact); and affectual (i.e., emotional closeness). The study further analyzes the effects of sibship size, proximity, birth order, marital status and age and gender on the three forms of solidarity, and relies on five middle range theories (attachment theory, family systems theory, rational choice, social comparison, and evolutionary theory). The study is based on participant observation in a Blended …

The Microbiology Of The Las Vegas Wash, Angela L Rosenblatt

UNLV Retrospective Theses & Dissertations

The Las Vegas Wash, the only drainage channel for the Las Vegas hydrographic basin, drains to Lake Mead, the major source of drinking water for the Las Vegas valley. High levels of fecally-associated bacteria are observed in the Wash, particularly during the summer months; Several studies were undertaken to investigate the indicator organisms in the Las Vegas Wash. Attempts were made to determine the source(s) of fecal bacteria, with results pointing toward overall species being environmentally-associated as opposed to being a result of human contributions. Wash enterococci showed high resistance to low levels of vancomycin. Regrowth potential of Escherichia coli …
