An Historical, Theoretical And Empirical Analysis Of Direct Foreign Investment In The United States During The Twentieth Century, Steven Louis Widener Jan 1988

An Historical, Theoretical And Empirical Analysis Of Direct Foreign Investment In The United States During The Twentieth Century, Steven Louis Widener

Doctoral Dissertations

This thesis employs both aggregate data and a dissaggregated sample of 135 non-U.S. multinational enterprises to analyze the extent of direct foreign investment (DFI) in United States manufacturing since 1900, its characteristics and causes. This research revealed that: (1) DFI originates primarily from other developed capitalist countries, (2) most DFI is relatively recent, accelerating markedly after 1970, (3) from the perspective of relative interpenetration of DFI, U.S. imperial power versus its major trading rivals has waned since 1970, (4) there is a strong tendency for the parent firm to penetrate the market through acquisitions of existing U.S. firms, and (5) …

The Army Air Corps Under Franklin D. Roosevelt: The Influence Of Air Power On The Roosevelt Administration, 1933-1941., Jeffery Scott Underwood Jan 1988

The Army Air Corps Under Franklin D. Roosevelt: The Influence Of Air Power On The Roosevelt Administration, 1933-1941., Jeffery Scott Underwood

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

When Franklin D. Roosevelt entered the White House in 1933, the leaders of the Army Air Corps wanted to create an independent air force. Using Billy Mitchell's tactics of public confrontation, exploitation of the Air Corps' poor condition and unproven claims about air power, these officers only antagonized the people who could grant them independence. After 1934, Oscar Westover, H. H. "Hap" Arnold, Frank Andrews, and a number of other Air Corps officers started a concerted effort to promote themselves as "team players" who had given up Mitchell's methods. With demonstrations, like long range flights to South America, they proved …

A Fourth Grade Social Studies Unit On Washington State, Jodeanna R. Weller

Recommendations included the development of pre and post tests to measure conceptual gain from the unit activities and suggested further research be conducted on higher level thinking skill activities and their integration into the classroom curriculum.


Academic Freedom And Academic Values In Sponsored Research, Rebecca S. Eisenberg Jan 1988

Academic Freedom And Academic Values In Sponsored Research, Rebecca S. Eisenberg

Articles

In this Article I examine the traditional American conception of academic freedom and analyze its implications for universities formulating policies on the acceptance of sponsored research. I begin by reviewing the basic policy statements of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) on academic freedom to identify both the academic values implicit in those statements and the assumptions about institutional relationships and individual incentives underlying their prescriptions for advancing those values. I then evaluate the validity of those underlying assumptions in contemporary sponsored research and argue that academic freedom as traditionally conceived might no longer effectively advance academic values in …


Yilgarn: Good Country For Hardy People: The Landscape And People Of The Yilgarn Shire, Western Australia, Lyall Hunt (Ed.) Jan 1988

Yilgarn: Good Country For Hardy People: The Landscape And People Of The Yilgarn Shire, Western Australia, Lyall Hunt (Ed.)

Research outputs pre 2011

This study of the environment and people of the Yilgarn region of Western Australia grew from a decision of the Shire of Yilgarn to commemorate the centenary of the discovery of commercial deposits of gold in the district in 1887-1888. The idea stemmed from the vision of Mr Romolo Patroni who saw the need to record the experiences of Yilgarn pioneers. He convinced the shire council under Cr Kenneth Beaton, president, 1972-1982, to publish a history of the district. The plan was fostered by Cr John Panizza, who became shire president in 1982 and brought to fruition by Cr Patroni …

Martyrs For The Faith, John W. Carven C.M. Oct 1987

Martyrs For The Faith, John W. Carven C.M.

Vincentian Studies

During the French Revolution, two Daughters of Charity, Marie-Anne Vaillot and Odile Baumgarten, were executed by firing squad for refusing to take an oath of loyalty to the state. Three sisters of their house did take the oath; Vaillot and Baumgarten were executed to intimidate the rest of the sisters in to following suit. As they were taken to the execution site, they inspired and strengthened their fellow prisoners and refused a last-minute offer that would have saved their lives. Other persecution of the Daughters of Charity is recounted.

The Daughters Of Charity In The Spanish-American War, Gertrude Fenner D.C.

Vincentian Studies

When the American government called for nurses during the Spanish-American War, 189 of the 282 sisters who responded were Daughters of Charity. Often under great hardship, they served the wounded in several hospitals within the United States and went to the battle lines in Cuba. They joined Spanish Daughters in Puerto Rico. They traveled on hospital ships and dealt with large numbers of typhoid and other fever cases at sea and on land. The Red Cross and other lay nurses often followed the Daughters’ techniques in nursing and ward management. The Daughters’ influence on Florence Nightingale and Clara Barton is …

Did She Donkeystone Her Doorstep?: The Victorian Ideal Of Domesticity And The Reality Of Working Class Women's Lives, Rebecca Binder May 1987

Did She Donkeystone Her Doorstep?: The Victorian Ideal Of Domesticity And The Reality Of Working Class Women's Lives, Rebecca Binder

Senior Scholar Papers

My Senior Scholars is an investigation of the ideology of domesticity and behavior of married working class women in specific textile districts in England between 1851 and 1881. In particular, I examined which working class women the ideology encompassed, and to what extent these women followed the ideology. In order to understand the ideology of domesticity, certain aspects of working class life have to be taken into consideration. The changing economic and social spheres of married women, divisions within the working class, which separate the average worker from the elite segments of the working class (hereafter referred to as the …
