Finally, it offers some suggestions for forensics educations on how to keep desired stories from being left out of the collective memory.

History, Governmental Structure, And Politics: Defining The Scope Of Local Board Of Health Power, Pekham Pal Nov 2015

History, Governmental Structure, And Politics: Defining The Scope Of Local Board Of Health Power, Pekham Pal

Fordham Law Review

    Local boards of health often issue regulations that have broad effects that surpass the borders of the city or county to which they apply. Promulgation of such rules by board of health members appointed by the executive branch implicates separation of powers concerns; because such regulations may so extensively burden a locality’s citizens, it may be more appropriate for elected officials to adopt these regulations. Indeed, local businesses or other interested parties often bring suit challenging local board of health actions. Courts apply different analytical methodologies to review these challenges, which often leads to incongruent local health agency discretion for …

All Propaganda Is Dangerous, But Some Are More Dangerous Than Others: George Orwell And The Use Of Literature As Propaganda, Samantha Senn Oct 2015

All Propaganda Is Dangerous, But Some Are More Dangerous Than Others: George Orwell And The Use Of Literature As Propaganda, Samantha Senn

Journal of Strategic Security

The true battles of the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union were fought on the ideological front: pitting democracy and capitalism against totalitarianism and communism. The Office of Policy Coordination (OPC) of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was formed in the late 1940s to help combat the spread of Communism across Europe and in the United States. Part of the “psychological warfare” included the use of propaganda. Around the same time, British author George Orwell had recently published Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four. Both novels, due to the anti-Communist overtones, were adopted by the OPC …


“Custom Has Rendered It Somehow Necessary; We Must And Will Have It”: English Transferware And National Identity In The Early American Republic, Rebecca Marisseau Oct 2015

“Custom Has Rendered It Somehow Necessary; We Must And Will Have It”: English Transferware And National Identity In The Early American Republic, Rebecca Marisseau

History & Classics Undergraduate Theses

As subjects of the British crown, the American colonists demanded representation in Parliament, fair tax, and advantage in trade during the decades leading to American Independence. Concurrently, as buyers, the colonists demanded fine English ceramics to adorn their tables. Towards the end of the 18th century, the English potters industrialized the production of their ceramics, making them cheaper to produce. Other European nations regarded this development as a threat to their own ceramic manufactories, and responded with tariffs. As a result, English potters turned their attention to the expanding market of the United States. Greater dependence on the American market …
