A La Sombra De La Revolución Sandinista: Nicaragua, 1979-2019, Mateo Jarquín Chamorro

History Faculty Books and Book Chapters

"Como suele suceder en cualquier sociedad conmovida por la pérdida abrupta del statu quo, el análisis de la historia vuelve a la moda en Nicaragua. La sociedad civil y la clase política buscan en el pasado las respuestas a las mismas preguntas planteadas por este libro: ¿cómo hemos llegado hasta aquí? ¿Qué perspectivas se abren para el futuro?

A primera vista, lucen imperantes las continuidades en la historia de Nicaragua. La consolidación de una nueva dictadura con pretensiones dinásticas invita a comparaciones evidentes con el proyecto somocista y hace eco de una larga tradición caudillista. Asimismo, lucen intactos los hábitos …

Chapman's Berlin Wall As A Display Of Tribal Victory, Cameron Steiner

Student Scholar Symposium Abstracts and Posters

From early contact between hunter-gatherer tribes, through the Middle Ages and to even modern times, societies in conflict would frequently engage in the intimidation tactic of severing the heads of their rivals and placing them upon spikes or poles. More than a means to warn away those who came upon it, these displays would exhibit the power and superiority of one tribe over the other. While the most explicit forms of this custom are no longer in widespread use, their gestures of dominance continue to be practiced in objects and figures that are given symbolic significance, typically representing the victory …

Racial Prejudice In The Criminal Justice System, Tori Cooper

Jessie O'Kelly Freshman Essay Award

Racial prejudice against African Americans has been the leading cause of high incarceration rates amongst the African American community. Within the United States, the census reported that African Americans make up about 17.9 percent of the population, with one-third of the people making up the incarcerated population in America. The disparity in those numbers highlights the current situation that is plaguing the nation. Blatant cases of racial profiling that have received media attention are a true testament of the broken law enforcement system from coast to coast. Racial prejudice cases have affected the black American community since the beginning of …

The People Of The Cumberland Plateau: Yesterday, Today And Tomorrow

Symposium of Student Scholars

The area of East Tennessee that lies between the Appalachian and Cumberland Mountains is called the Cumberland Plateau. This area reaches from Chattanooga to Bristol. Many people not from this region label it as redneck, back-woods, or hillbilly. Many don’t consider it to be a place that holds modern values, such as conservation and education. Through archival research, I will study this area during the Great Depression to explore how this place’s reality is different.

During one generation, the Plateau changed from a place defined by isolation and limited education to a hub of scientific research and a major provider …
