On Sport and Society

It has been one of those weeks when there are so many things to comment upon, I don't know where to begin. The embarrassment of riches has come from a multitude of sources, and invites a veritable plethora of opinions and attitudes from joy and praise to disdain and disgust.

The Controversy Over The Portland Public Schools' African-American Baseline Essays, 1983-1992, Thomas Damian Rand-Luby May 1997

The Controversy Over The Portland Public Schools' African-American Baseline Essays, 1983-1992, Thomas Damian Rand-Luby

Dissertations and Theses

This thesis chronicles the controversy surrounding the implementation of the multicultural education curriculum in the public schools of Portland, Oregon between 1983 and 1992. It surveys and discusses the germane events, processes, procedures, and perceptions which led up to, accompanied, and emerged from the city's adoption of the African-American Baseline Essays. This work seeks to place the Portland experiment in an historical context by revealing its contribution to the study of United States social/cultural history and race relations. This story of community empowerment is tied to long-standing conflicts and questions surrounding the nature of multicultural education, the role of public …

The Persistence Of Elites And The Legacy Of I.G. Farben, A.G., Robert Arthur Reinert May 1997

The Persistence Of Elites And The Legacy Of I.G. Farben, A.G., Robert Arthur Reinert

Dissertations and Theses

On a massive scale, German business elites linked their professional ambitions to the affairs of the Nazi State. By 1937, the chemical giant, l.G. Farben, became completely "Nazified" and provided Hitler with materials which were essential to conduct war. With its monopoly over the manufacture of critical wartime products and global business interests, LG. Farben became one of the most powerful companies in the world during World War II, and an integral part of the Third Reich power structure. The conglomerate also provoked hostile mergers within the conquered "territories" of the German Reich, and constructed one of the largest privately-owned …

Review Of Michael Berkowitz, Zionist Culture And West European Jewry Before The First World War, Alan E. Steinweis May 1997

Review Of Michael Berkowitz, Zionist Culture And West European Jewry Before The First World War, Alan E. Steinweis

Department of History: Faculty Publications

In this elegantly written and nicely designed book, Michael Berkowitz offers the reader a fascinating discussion of Zionism as a cultural phenomenon among the assimilated Jews of western and central Europe in the two decades preceding World War I. Berkowitz is particularly interested in how the Zionist movement employed political symbols, myths, and icons in an effort to spawn a new Jewish national consciousness to which assimilated bourgeois Jews in France, Britain, and Germany could safely subscribe without compromising their allegiance to the country of their citizenship. In contrast to the masses of Russian-Polish and Rumanian Jews, for whom migration …


The Portrayal Of Enemies In Propaganda During The Russian And French Revolutions, Carole Reid May 1997

The Portrayal Of Enemies In Propaganda During The Russian And French Revolutions, Carole Reid

Senior Scholar Papers

This study investigates propaganda aimed at depicting "the enemy" during the Terror period of the French Revolution (1792-1794) and during the Revolutionary and Civil War periods in Russia (1917-1920). The two periods under consideration are congruous for several reasons. First, during each period the regime in control solidified its power and became more repressive in an effort to further its revolutionary agenda. Both the Jacobins and the Bolsheviks were minority groups who gained control of countries in transition, and each government believed that unity among the people was essential in order to lead their country forward. When the Jacobins gained …
