Iii. Swiss Industrialization: Its Social Dimensions, Jürg K. Siegenthaler Feb 1984

Iii. Swiss Industrialization: Its Social Dimensions, Jürg K. Siegenthaler

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

Under this heading I would like to bring together two different emphases in the study of industrialization that too often have remained separate: (a) the historical measurement of economic growth, undertaken by economic historians who have looked at industrial output and similar indicators in order to gauge a country's economic performance; and (b) the study of social policy measures such as workers' protection and social insurance, to which social and political historians have paid major attention in assessing a nation's reaction to the ups and downs of economic growth in the course of industrialization.


Anglo-American Merchants And Stratagems For Success In Spanish Imperial Markets, 1783-1807, Linda K. Salvucci Jan 1984

Anglo-American Merchants And Stratagems For Success In Spanish Imperial Markets, 1783-1807, Linda K. Salvucci

History Faculty Research

When Josiah Blakeley, consul of the United States at Santiago de Cuba, wrote these lines to Secretary of State James Madison on November 1, 1801 he had recently been jailed by administrators on that island. This remarkable situation notwithstanding, his sentiments still neatly express the paradox of trade between the United States and Spanish Caribbean ports. The expanding hinterlands of New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore furnished North American merchants with ever increasing, exportable food supplies and led to fierce competition for new markets at the end of the eighteenth century. At the same time, Spain's American colonies remained chronically, often …

Herman Frasch (German Immigrant Chemist, Standard Oil, Petroleum; Ohio, Louisiana)., William Ralph Sutton Jan 1984

Herman Frasch (German Immigrant Chemist, Standard Oil, Petroleum; Ohio, Louisiana)., William Ralph Sutton

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

Herman Frasch (1851-1914) invented the hot-water process for mining sulphur that permitted the exploitation of the rich deposits beneath the coastal plain of the Gulf of Mexico. The Frasch process enabled the United States to become self-sufficient in the production of this important industrial mineral and the major supplier to the world. Frasch's new idea was to inject steam into the underground deposit to melt the sulphur and then pump the liquid to the surface. He patented the process in 1891 and first demonstrated its technical success at Sulphur, Louisiana in 1894. Initially plagued with problems due to the high …


"They Fought Splendidly!": The Struggle For Port Hudson (Civil War, Louisiana, Military)., Lawrence Lee Hewitt Jan 1984

"They Fought Splendidly!": The Struggle For Port Hudson (Civil War, Louisiana, Military)., Lawrence Lee Hewitt

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

This dissertation examines the Confederate occupation of Port Hudson, Louisiana, and the Union efforts to capture the bastion during the period August 1862-July 1863. Though it recounts the garrison life of the soldiers, it emphasizes governments. Throughout the period under consideration, the Confederate government's objective in garrisoning Port Hudson and Vicksburg was to maintain the vital Red River supply-line. That waterway facilitated the east-west flow of manpower, munitions and foodstuffs between the heart of the Confederacy and the Trans-Mississippi. The United States government recognized the importance of this supply-line and made control of the Mississippi River one of its primary …


The Nonconformists Of Leeds In The Early Victorian Era: A Study In Social Composition, Susan L. Fales Jan 1984

The Nonconformists Of Leeds In The Early Victorian Era: A Study In Social Composition, Susan L. Fales

Theses and Dissertations

This thesis examined the Nonconformist denominational membership in the Borough of Leeds during the early Victorian era to determine the social composition of its members. The chapel goers of Old Dissent, represented by the Unitarians, Baptists, Independents, and the Society of Friends, and New Dissent, represented by the Wesleyan Methodists, Methodist New Connexion, Primitive Methodists and the Mormons were the basis for this study. The results of the occupational, residential, family, and migration analysis revealed a surprisingly high percentage of working classes (72) represented among the Dissenters. This fact flys in the face of contemporary observation and historical investigation, which …


The Jury, Seditious Libel And The Criminal Law, Thomas A. Green Jan 1984

The Jury, Seditious Libel And The Criminal Law, Thomas A. Green

Book Chapters

The seditious libel trials of the eighteenth century constitute an important chapter in the history of freedom of the press and the growth of democratic government. While much has been written about the trials and about the administration of the criminal law in eighteenth-century England, little has been said about the relationship between the libel prosecutions and the more pervasive and long-standing problems of the criminal law. We have perhaps gone too far in positing-or simply assuming-a separation between political high misdemeanors and common-run felony cases such as homicide and theft. For there were points of contact between the two: …


Reforming The Immigration And Nationality Act: Labor Certification, Adjustment Of Status, The Reach Of Deportation, And Entry By Fraud, Elwin Griffith Jan 1984

Reforming The Immigration And Nationality Act: Labor Certification, Adjustment Of Status, The Reach Of Deportation, And Entry By Fraud, Elwin Griffith

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This Article will consider some of the controversial sections of the INA and the impact of the pending immigration legislation. Part I considers the labor certification requirement, a prerequisite for third and sixth preference immigrants. This Part concludes that clarification of the division of authority between the Attorney General and the Secretary of Labor, and of the intent of aliens to keep their certified jobs, would be desirable. Part II analyzes the requirements an alien must meet to adjust status to one, of the occupational preferences. The statutory refusal to adjust status of aliens who accept ''unauthorized employment" must be …


Is The Section 1983 Civil Rights Statute Overworked? Expanded Use Of Magistrates--An Alternative To Exhaustion, Brian P. Owensby Jan 1984

Is The Section 1983 Civil Rights Statute Overworked? Expanded Use Of Magistrates--An Alternative To Exhaustion, Brian P. Owensby

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

Part I of this Note discusses the history and purpose of section 1983 and identifies the danger unmanaged growth of 1983 suits poses to civil rights. Part II examines several judicial responses to the 1983 caseload problem and concludes that congressional action is more appropriate. Parts III and IV explore two areas of possible legislative action. Part III questions the efficacy of a legislatively imposed requirement that the claimant exhaust state administrative remedies as a prerequisite to a 1983 suit in federal court. Part IV proposes an alternative congressional response to the 1983 caseload problem: a carefully tailored use of …


A Historical Survey Of The International Regulation Of Propaganda, Elizabeth A. Downey Jan 1984

A Historical Survey Of The International Regulation Of Propaganda, Elizabeth A. Downey

Michigan Journal of International Law

This article traces international efforts to regulate propaganda through the pre- and post-UN periods, charting its development from a rather peripheral concern of international law to its important role in the currently evolving law of international communication.


Political Asylum In The Federal Republic Of Germany And The Republic Of France: Lessons For The United States, T. Alexander Aleinikoff Jan 1984

Political Asylum In The Federal Republic Of Germany And The Republic Of France: Lessons For The United States, T. Alexander Aleinikoff

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The recent flood of asylum claims, and the concerns it engenders, are not peculiar to the United States. Western European nations have witnessed similar increases in asylum applications over the past decade, .and institutions charged with adjudicating claims have become severely overburdened. This Article will describe the experience of the Federal Republic of Germany and the Republic of France in coping with the explosion of asylum claims. A comparative analysis may provide perspective on the American situation and perhaps suggest - or rule out - proposals for change currently under consideration in the United States. To appreciate the saliency of …

In Re Radical Interpretations Of American Law: The Relation Of Law And History, A. E. Keir Nash Nov 1983

In Re Radical Interpretations Of American Law: The Relation Of Law And History, A. E. Keir Nash

Michigan Law Review

This Article centers instead upon assessing two types of legal analysis - non-Marxist radical interpretation and "non-reductionist" Marxist theory - which, despite conspicuous differences, share the belief that understanding the American historical experience is a prerequisite to understanding American law. Both approaches also share two other important convictions. One is that a "consensual" or "liberal pluralist" version of American history has little explanatory validity, at least in regard to such major problems as the political and legal breakdown represented by the Civil War, and the law's role in American economic development. They also agree that historical explanations which downplay discussion …

Review: Ronald G. Fick, Ed., 'San Francisco Is No More': The Letters Of Antoine Borel, Jr., 1905-1906. San Mateo, California: Wilmac Press, 1963, 32 Pp., Leo Schelbert

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

Although not a recent publication, this rare and little known work deserves to be featured. Some time ago the Arthur H. Clark Company offered Number 18 of the 200 printed copies for sale; the little book is beautifully crafted, signed by the printer J. Wilson McKenney, and reproduces on the front cover a letter in facsimile that was written by Borel on Tuesday, April 24, 1906, right after the devastating earthquake. The work contains a photograph of Antoine Borel, Jr. (1879-1958), an elevenpage, carefully annotated introduction, six letters of Borel to his parents who were at that time in Europe, …

Review: Giorgio Cheda, L'Emigrazione Ticinese In California. Locarno: Armando Dado Editore, 1981. 2 Vols., 880 Pp., Laurette Fiocchi

Swiss American Historical Society Newsletter

What were the social mechanisms of emigration to the United States? What made people leave or remain behind? What did they encounter en route and upon their arrival? What effects did their exodus and the money they were able to send back have at home? What was the fabric of traditional artisan and peasant life? What was the interplay between it and the far from homogeneous culture of the United States? What were the effects of the Ticino on California and vice versa? This collection of letters written by and to Italian-Swiss emigrants from the Ticino presents us with the …
