A New Job- A New World Washington: 1958-1970, Agathe Burckhardt-Sandreuter Jun 1994

A New Job- A New World Washington: 1958-1970, Agathe Burckhardt-Sandreuter

Swiss American Historical Society Review

When on June 28th, 1957, my husband was appointed to the post of Labor Attache in Washington he was informed that he would have to be there on August 1st in order to attend the National Day celebrations with the Swiss colony. We agreed that I would join him later since I had to wind up my teaching obligations at the "Mädchengymnasium Basel," find temporary homes for our three daughters and last, but not least, learn how to drive a car. At that time I also got acquainted with "Protocol" which summoned me to pay my first formal call on …


Swiss-American Relations: A Challenge, Lukas F. Burckhardt Jun 1994

Swiss-American Relations: A Challenge, Lukas F. Burckhardt

Swiss American Historical Society Review

With her lively reminiscences of our years in the service of the Swiss Embassy in Washington, D.C., my wife Agathe has evoked a fine period in our life in which we were both equally engaged, greatly encouraged by our chiefs, in fostering Swiss-American relations on a very personal level. This endeavor was made easy by a favorable intellectual climate. Things· American still had an unique charm for our curious Swiss visitors who found there an astonishing openmindedness. We met in the United States many highly motivated Americans in responsible positions who were keen to keep in close touch with our …

The Literature Of The Romandie: Switzerland's Wild West, Barbara Villiger Jun 1994

The Literature Of The Romandie: Switzerland's Wild West, Barbara Villiger

Swiss American Historical Society Review

Geneva's best-known writer lives in France. French Switzerland's best known woman writer lives in Neuchatel, but she is Hungarian. And to close the triangle - Switzerland's most successful writer in Paris last year is by no means a French Swiss but a German-speaking Parisian of choice. As regards the first author, the Genevan writer living in France, I'm talking about Robert Pinget; as regards the second author, the Hungarian living in Neuch~el, about Agota Kristof; and in the third instance, the Parisian by choice, about Paul Nizon. Before focusing on the two writers of today's talk--Pinget and Kristof--I'd like to …


A Swiss Family's Homecoming After Three Hundred Years, Frederick W. Vogler Jun 1994

A Swiss Family's Homecoming After Three Hundred Years, Frederick W. Vogler

Swiss American Historical Society Review

In an earlier publication on my own family's European roots, I had occasion to write-~rather wistfully, it now seems--of how our modem family's ancestors had apparently renounced all ties with those they left behind in Switzerland and Germany, never looking back once they had chosen to emigrate to North America in 1742 and had then succeeded in establishing themselves initially in New England and North Carolina, then across the continent as far as Ontario and California. The completeness of this break with the past was all the more remarkable in that no evidence whatever has ever been found of any …


Swiss-Americans In The 1990 Census, Terry Johnson Jun 1994

Swiss-Americans In The 1990 Census, Terry Johnson

Swiss American Historical Society Review

Over one million Americans claim Swiss ancestry according to the 1990 ethnic data recently released by the U.S. Census. While this is up 6.5% over the 1980 figure, the Swiss remain a very small ethnic group, accounting for less than half a percent of total U.S. population. Nevertheless, the new data makes the 1990 census the first in which the Swiss pass the million population mark.

Tacit Cooperation Between Enemies: Two Case Studies, Kristina Handy Apr 1994

Tacit Cooperation Between Enemies: Two Case Studies, Kristina Handy

Theses and Dissertations

This research details a point of reference to understand two case studies of cooperation that developed among lower-level, or non policy-making bureaucrats during times of conflict or war. Using components of game theory, I propose that when an international conflictual relationship occurs that resembles an iterated Prisoners' Dilemma, and that meets certain conditions, tacit cooperation can emerge. Tacit cooperation consists of illicit or implied cooperation that is not sanctioned at the national policy level.

In this research I develop a framework of tacit cooperation, relying heavily upon Robert Axelrod's theory of evolutionary cooperation. With the framework in place, I then …
