Twentieth-Century Global Perspectives, Janice Schuster Jan 2018

Twentieth-Century Global Perspectives, Janice Schuster

Library Faculty and Staff papers

The collections that comprise Twentieth-Century Global Perspectives,

covering 1941-1996, include primary sources from the Central

Intelligence Agency’s Foreign Broadcast Information Service (FBIS)

Daily Reports, 1941-1996 and its Joint Publications Research Service

(JPRS) Reports, 1957-1995. The online versions of these sources are

not consolidated anywhere else, making these collections invaluable

for researchers in the various disciplines covered. Weaknesses of the

database include the inability to search across all collections simultaneously,

the absence of help screens, and the inability to export to

bibliographic management tools such as RefWorks or Zotero.

Voices From Detention: An Exploration Of Undocumented Immigrants’ Journeys, Michaela Malboeuf Jan 2018

Voices From Detention: An Exploration Of Undocumented Immigrants’ Journeys, Michaela Malboeuf

Spring Presentation of Undergraduate Research

Distinct differences exist between the phrases “criminal” and “immigrant” but moral panic has caused people to gravitate to use one term to address illegal immigration; Crimmigration. The current study seeks to contribute to the limited field of qualitative research on illegal immigration commonalities in migration experiences and characteristics of the immigrant. Qualitative semi structured interviews of detained men in an Immigration Detention Center will be conducted in efforts to illustrate the migration and detainment experience. This exploratory research contributes to the reformation of current immigration legislation and social perceptions of immigrants in the United States in hopes to eliminate the …


The Effect On Existence, De'siree Fairley Jan 2018

The Effect On Existence, De'siree Fairley

Spring Presentation of Undergraduate Research

The Rashomon effect is a sociological term that originated from the 1950 film Rashomon directed by Akira Kurosawa. It explains a story being told from multiple vantage points, but never gives an unbiasedly true version of the tale at its conclusion. By telling the story from multiple perspectives, characters who would originally be silenced such as the bride are given a voice. Telling the story in this format allows the audience to consider peoples’ perspectives that differ from their own. Without giving the audience the true conclusion of an incident this demands that they consider every aspect of a story …


Protecting Human Subjects In The Digital Age: Issues And Best Practices Of Data Protection, Thomas Jamieson, Güez Salinas Jan 2018

Protecting Human Subjects In The Digital Age: Issues And Best Practices Of Data Protection, Thomas Jamieson, Güez Salinas

Emergency Services Faculty Publications

Public opinion and survey researchers must protect the privacy and confidentiality of human subjects. However, scholars are often not trained in the best practices of data storage, and there is a serious risk that survey data might be compromised by pernicious actors. In an era when it is becoming increasingly difficult to recruit participants, breaches could further challenge our ability to conduct surveys if we cannot guarantee that participants’ data will remain confidential and private. While any computer-based data has some vulnerability, we introduce simple measures that will better protect the confidentiality and privacy of human subjects. We hope these …

Crossing The Digital Divide: Monism, Dualism And The Reason Collective Action Is Critical For Cyber Theory Production, Christopher Whyte Jan 2018

Crossing The Digital Divide: Monism, Dualism And The Reason Collective Action Is Critical For Cyber Theory Production, Christopher Whyte

L. Douglas Wilder School of Government and Public Affairs Publications

In studying topics in cyber conflict and cyber-security governance, scholars must ask—arguably more so than has been the case with any other emergent research agenda—where the epistemological and ontological value of different methods lies. This article describes the unique, dual methodological challenges inherent in the multifaceted program on global cyber-security and asks how problematic they are for scholarly efforts to construct knowledge about digital dynamics in world affairs. I argue that any answer to this question will vary depending on how one perceives the social science enterprise. While traditional dualistic perspectives on social science imply unique challenges for researcher, a …

What Does It Mean To Be A Christian Woman? Sustaining And Empowering The Female Christian Faith In Light Of Sexism In Christian Communities, Erin Pauline Rooney Jan 2018

What Does It Mean To Be A Christian Woman? Sustaining And Empowering The Female Christian Faith In Light Of Sexism In Christian Communities, Erin Pauline Rooney

Seattle Pacific Seminary Projects

What helps young Christian women sustain their faith in the face of sexism within Christian communities? Are there practices or traditions that leaders of these Christian communities need to consider to better support young Christian women? Do young Christian women find value in studying theology, history, and hermeneutics from female perspectives, and if so, why? These are the guiding questions this project seeks to answer. This project involves a qualitative research study with a group of students within a “Women in Christianity” course at Seattle Pacific University. Participants were interviewed twice during the course and also forwarded their written reflections …


Postcolonial Discipleship: Movement, Genius, And Uncertainty: Explorations In Contemporary 'Korean American' Theological Discourse, Michael Sungjoon Won Jan 2018

Postcolonial Discipleship: Movement, Genius, And Uncertainty: Explorations In Contemporary 'Korean American' Theological Discourse, Michael Sungjoon Won

Seattle Pacific Seminary Theses

Contemporary ‘Korean American’ theological discourse seeks to more broadly account for the variations and deviations that characterize the ‘Korean American’ experience. Theologians Andrew Sung Park and Grace Ji-Sun Kim theorize the ‘Korean American’ subject through notions of ‘authenticity’ and cultural ‘rootedness’. Such an approach presents itself to be problematic when one begins to account for the ways that colonialism and imperialism have shaped understandings of culture, ultimately revealing that culture is not simply an expression of ontology, but is also driven by a large array of sociological factors. In light of this, theologians Wonhee Anne Joh and Sang Hyun Lee …


Struck Down And Not Destroyed: A New Way To Carry Trauma, Rebecca L. Weygandt Jan 2018

Struck Down And Not Destroyed: A New Way To Carry Trauma, Rebecca L. Weygandt

Seattle Pacific Seminary Projects

There seems to be an assumption in many Christian communities that suggest people should avoid the experience of pain and suffering. This is often communicated by encouraging those who grapple with difficult realities to have a positive perspective or attitude. As a future leader in the Church, I am concerned about the negative impact of this message on the emotional and spiritual health of people. I am specifically concerned about those who engage in the arduous work of reconciliation and peacemaking and how they can survive the inevitable pain and difficulty of this work over an extended period of time, …

Law And Religion In Alliance: Guido De Bres And The Restriction Of Religious Liberty, Antoine Theron Jan 2018

Law And Religion In Alliance: Guido De Bres And The Restriction Of Religious Liberty, Antoine Theron

CTS PhD Doctoral Dissertations

This study investigates why the Dutch reformer Guido De Bres believed that the law should restrict religious liberty. In other words, why did De Bres believe that political rulers should not tolerate religious liberty? The answer developed in this dissertation is that De Bres’s restrictive view of religious liberty was largely the result of his vision of an alliance between law and religion. De Bres’s vision of an alliance between law and religion was his theological response to the acute challenge of his concrete historical (political, social) context. De Bres’s vision offered a solution to the desperate plight of the …

The Representation Of Multiracial People In America With A Focus On Children’S Literature, Janelle M. Barth Jan 2018

The Representation Of Multiracial People In America With A Focus On Children’S Literature, Janelle M. Barth

Graduate Student Independent Studies

Data continues to show that people who claim two or more races are amongst the fastest growing subset of the U.S. population. According to the 2010 Census, nearly half of the respondents identifying as multiracial are under the age of eighteen. This paper examines the representation of mixed race people in America through an historical examination of how they were racially classified, interviews, with a focus on racial identity development, and an analysis of picture books featuring multiracial main characters. While American society as whole is becoming more accepting of mixed race people, there are still considerable gaps in the …


Slavery, Religion And Reconciliation, Bill Piatt Jan 2018

Slavery, Religion And Reconciliation, Bill Piatt

Intercultural Human Rights Law Review

Santa Fe is a beautiful, culturally rich and diverse city. I am a native Santa Fean, and my mixed Hispanic/Indian/Anglo/African blood reflects the ethnic makeup of the region. Each year the city celebrates a Fiesta. One component, the Entrada, celebrates the "peaceful" re-conquest of the Indigenous people by the Spanish colonizers. Controversy has arisen in recent years as activists challenge the memorialization of a tradition that they feel represents slavery and brutality. Linking their struggle to recent efforts to remove memorials to the Confederacy, they have sought to physically block the re-enactment, leading to arrests, collateral conflict, and the very …
