Elitism, Corruption, And Democracy: An Evolutionary Study Of American History, Emily Hayes Noel Sep 2020

Elitism, Corruption, And Democracy: An Evolutionary Study Of American History, Emily Hayes Noel

Student Theses and Dissertations

The relationship between elitism and corruption in the United States has become problematic for the prosperity of our democracy. Throughout United States history, this relationship has continually evolved and allowed for elites to be able to pursue personal interests and abuse their positions. The pursuit of corrupt actions to achieve personal gain results in a widening gap between the elites and the masses. A thorough analysis of the history of the United States (with special emphasis on scandals and events within each block of time) shows that this is, in fact, the case; the evolutionary relationship has resulted in an …

Researching Sexual Violence Against Men In Bosnia-Herzegovina: Current Progress And Research Gaps, Anna Gopsill Sep 2020

Researching Sexual Violence Against Men In Bosnia-Herzegovina: Current Progress And Research Gaps, Anna Gopsill

International Conference on Genocide

Over the past two decades, scholarly research on conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV) has steadily grown. Despite this, gaps remain. Significantly, while there is a strong foundation of research on female victims of CRSV, research on male victims is growing but still lags behind. In the Bosnian context, women have been widely recognised as victims of genocidal sexual violence during the 1992 to 1995 war, while male victims of sexual violence often fall under the category of torture or crimes against humanity. This is despite a large amount of evidence indicating that men were victims of sexual violence in the conflict. …

Child Soldiering As Genocide: The Case Of Sierra Leone, Willow Kelly Sep 2020

Child Soldiering As Genocide: The Case Of Sierra Leone, Willow Kelly

International Conference on Genocide

This research explores the effects of the use of children in the Sierra Leonean civil war. Specifically, I will be analyzing how the use of children in warfare in Sierra Leone from 1995-2000 has been used as a tool of genocide. Genocide is a heavily researched topic with many cases; however, the Sierra Leonean civil war has not been classified as a genocide of any category. My goal is to prove that the Revolutionary United Front utilized policies pertaining to the destruction of children to institute a genocide. The long journey to disarm rebel groups, rescue captive children, and punish …


Rondo Days, Kellian Clink Sep 2020

Rondo Days, Kellian Clink

Library Services Publications

The Rondo Days Festival, inaugurated in 1983, is a reunion of the Black community of the Twin Cities. It memorializes and mourns a neighborhood gone, a neighborhood where residents “learned to fill the gaps in American history (Fairbanks 1999, 141), learned about the contributions and tribulations of their people. The celebration remembers when the creation of I-94 meant the destruction of a vibrant neighborhood, moving hundreds of families from a community of truly gracious homes to “substandard housing with bad wiring” (Baker 1994). Rondo Days celebrates a sense of community sustained in defiance of institutional racism and urban planning run …


The Expansion From System Simulation To Domain Simulation, Xiaogang Qiu, Yazhou Chen, Zhang Peng Sep 2020

The Expansion From System Simulation To Domain Simulation, Xiaogang Qiu, Yazhou Chen, Zhang Peng

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: With the generalization of simulation application and complex system simulation becoming the focus, domain simulation is becoming more and more important. In 1995 United States Department of Defense (DoD) presented the master plan of modeling and simulation, which gives birth to the basic idea of domain simulation. The advances in information technology such as network technology and cloud computing help domain simulation to access to use. Taking the change of simulation research object as the basis, the development of simulation research from the aspects of model researches, simulation tools and simulation applications are summarized. The goal of domain simulation …


Evaluation On Geo-Registration Accuracy Of Outdoor Augmented Reality, Deng Chen, You Xiong, Meixia Zhi Sep 2020

Evaluation On Geo-Registration Accuracy Of Outdoor Augmented Reality, Deng Chen, You Xiong, Meixia Zhi

Journal of System Simulation

Abstract: Geo-registration technology is a key technology for the combination of augmented reality and geographic information systems, and its registration accuracy has a significant impact on the availability of ARGIS. Aiming at this application, the basic concepts and principles of augmented reality geo-registration technology are analyzed, and the method for quantitative evaluation of geo-registration accuracy is proposed. Combined with the pre-acquired high-precision geographic information data, a variety of outdoor geo-registration experiments are carried out by using the different hardware devices, and the quantitative accuracy of different geo-registration methods is evaluated. The geo-registration errors and the problems existing in the practical …

Engaging Communities In Archaeology On Private Property In An Urban Neighborhood: The Search For The First (1825-1829) Fort Vancouver, Vancouver, Washington, Amy Carolyn Clearman Sep 2020

Engaging Communities In Archaeology On Private Property In An Urban Neighborhood: The Search For The First (1825-1829) Fort Vancouver, Vancouver, Washington, Amy Carolyn Clearman

Dissertations and Theses

Current archaeological literature calls for archaeology to become increasingly relevant in the modern world. Involvement in archaeological research can enhance the relevancy of archaeology for participants of public archaeology projects by strengthening personal connections with heritage and history. To investigate the impact of direct involvement in archaeological research on residents in Vancouver, Washington, I recruited members of two neighborhoods associated with Fort Vancouver National Historic Site to participate in the archaeological search for material remains of the first (1825-1829) Fort Vancouver. I asked the question: How does involvement in a public archaeology project affect participants' feelings about heritage, archaeology, and …

Andrew Dickson White And America’S Unfinished (French) Revolution, Gregory S. Brown Sep 2020

Andrew Dickson White And America’S Unfinished (French) Revolution, Gregory S. Brown

History Faculty Research

Andrew Dickson White is not considered a canonical author in the French Revolution's historiography, but rather is known as the founding president of both Cornell University and the American Historical Association (AHA). His best-known published historical writings, when referenced at all, are often derided. Yet in his intellectually formative years, as an earnest abolitionist and amibtious Republican, eager to enter the arena of American political life and anticipating what he would later call "the great revolution" of the Civil War, White made the topic his central academic pursuit - and effectively invented a distinctly American tradition of historiography.
