Kings And Tyrants: Leonardo Bruni's Translation Of Xenophon's "Hiero", Brian Maxson Oct 2010

Kings And Tyrants: Leonardo Bruni's Translation Of Xenophon's "Hiero", Brian Maxson

ETSU Faculty Works

Leonardo Bruni published one of his most widely copied translations, Xenophon's pro-monarchical Hiero, shortly before he penned his more famous original works, his Dialogues and Panegyric to the City of Florence. Scholars have traditionally focused on the political ideas present in these original treatises; yet, despite the centrality of political ideas to the Hiero, its temporal proximity to these works, and its enormous popularity (the work exists in 200 fifteenth-century manuscripts), scholars have neglected to offer a full assessment of Bruni's translation in the context of these works. Bruni's translation of Xenophon's Hiero fit into a debate …

Tea Parties, Whigs, And Compromise: The Historical Roots Of U.S. Government-Business Relations, John R. Bartle Oct 2010

Tea Parties, Whigs, And Compromise: The Historical Roots Of U.S. Government-Business Relations, John R. Bartle

Public Administration Faculty Publications

This article reviews the politics of government-business relations in the US from 1776 to the present. It argues that two major political interests, the agrarian democrats and the nationalist Whigs, created the context for discussion of economic policy that continues today. At times, pragmatic compromises have resolved the differences between these interests. The lessons from this history are instructive for today, and suggest potentially viable policies and coalitions to address business issues.

Frédéric Ozanam―Beneficent Deserter: Mediating The Chasm Of Income Inequality Through Liberty, Equality, And Fraternity, Reverend Craig B. Mousin Oct 2010

Frédéric Ozanam―Beneficent Deserter: Mediating The Chasm Of Income Inequality Through Liberty, Equality, And Fraternity, Reverend Craig B. Mousin

Vincentian Studies

Frédéric Ozanam demonstrated how liberty, equality, and fraternity were Christian principles whose application was to safeguard the rights of poor persons and lessen the tremendous gap between rich and poor. He feared violent class warfare and insisted that Christians act as nonviolent mediators for as long as they could to prevent it from happening or at least ensure less disastrous results. If forced to take sides, Christians were to choose the poor, as the Gospel does. He urged charitable, pastoral, and civic engagement with the working poor, an often overlooked group. He campaigned for the Church and France to embrace …

Faith, Charity, Justice, And Civic Learning: The Lessons And Legacy Of Frédéric Ozanam, Raymond L. Sickinger Ph.D. Oct 2010

Faith, Charity, Justice, And Civic Learning: The Lessons And Legacy Of Frédéric Ozanam, Raymond L. Sickinger Ph.D.

Vincentian Studies

Frédéric Ozanam’s philosophy and work has much to offer those interested in community service and service learning. Thinkers such as John Dewey and Jane Addams believed that acts of charity allowed the rich to judge the poor and to excuse themselves from greater social responsibility. Charity and social justice were therefore mutually exclusive. In contrast, Ozanam’s definition of Christian charity involved treating poor persons as equals to increase social engagement and transform all of society. Ultimately, all classes were to come together with the same social goals of “peace, order, and happiness.” With the advice of those working in the …


Social Cohesion And Islamic Radicalization: Implications From The Uighur Insurgency, Tong Zhao Oct 2010

Social Cohesion And Islamic Radicalization: Implications From The Uighur Insurgency, Tong Zhao

Journal of Strategic Security

This article starts with a critical review of the current literature on the Islamic radicalization and Uighur insurgency in Xinjiang, pointing out that existing literature focuses too narrowly on certain aspects of the Uighur insurgency, and is insufficient to explain the causal mechanism of the insurgency and Islamic radicalization. Built upon historical evidence, this article uses sociological analysis to explore the structural changes in the Uighur community over the past decades, and demonstrates the importance and effectiveness of social cohesion theory in identifying the key causal variables which underlie and determine the course of Uighur insurgency and Islamic radicalization. The …


Political Terrorism: An Historical Case Study Of The Italian Red Brigades, Major Victor H. Sundquist Oct 2010

Political Terrorism: An Historical Case Study Of The Italian Red Brigades, Major Victor H. Sundquist

Journal of Strategic Security

As the world's governments become increasingly engulfed in economic and political strife, international leaders should step back and understand what historical realities enabled political extremism to surface in particular regions of the world. More important, these leaders need to recognize what past governments did to counter these movements. Global communities are currently witnessing a dynamic trend of populous uprisings that in some cases, like Greece and the United States, have the potential to severely disrupt the activities of local governments. Consequently, it behooves leaders to reflect upon historical precedence in order to avoid repeating the same mistakes of our forefathers. …
